S.P. JAIN INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT, MUMBAI

Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan's S. P. Jain Institute of Management and Research (SPJIMR) is rated among the top ten B-schools in the country. Inaugurated in 1981 by the then British Prime Minister Rt. Hon'ble Margaret Thatcher, it has moved from strength to strength due to its innovative pedagogic approach and its ability to adapt to the changing business environment.

Programs

Post Graduate Diploma in Management

The Institute offers one of the finest two-year full-time PGDM programmes in the country.

The selection criteria for calling candidates for interviews is based on multiple factors like:

• Past academic performance.
• Quality and content of the essays in the application form
• Work experience, IF ANY, in terms of job content and relevance to the specialization opted
• Extra curricular activities, other interests and accomplishments
• CAT score

ALL the above factors along with your performance in the interviews are used to determine the eligibility of candidates for offering final admission. CAT is NOT the only criterion used by SPJIMR for admission eligibility and there is no cutoff score for CAT scores used by SPJIMR.

A high CAT score does not guarantee a short-listing for a candidate for an interview. It is quite possible that a candidate, despite having scored very high in his/her CAT exams may not be called for interview if he/she is found to have low academic scores in his/her undergraduate studies or essays devoid of meaningful content.
