-Past Academic Record (PAR) : 15% weightage (https://cracku.in/colleges/jbims/admission-process/?utm_source=chatgpt.com)

-Extra-curricular Activities/Work Experience : 20% weightage (https://jbims.edu/uploads/announcement/Revised_M_Sc__Finance_Admission_Procedure_Batch_2024-26.pdf?utm_source=chatgpt.com)

while ahigh CAT percentile is crucial, a lower academic record may impact your overall AR score. Nonetheless, exceptional performance in other areas, such as entrance exams and extracurricular activities, can help offset weaker academic credentials. it's advisable to review JBIMS's detailed admission criteria and consider strengthening other aspects of your application to enhance your chances

Hello Ankush,

No, it won't create any problem if you take MBA admission using your B.Com (//B.Com) migration certificate. Dropping M.Com (//M.Com) from AOL doesn't affect your eligibility for MBA. just ensure your B.Com (//B.Com) documents are valid and complete for verification at IIM.

Hope this message finds you well,

Thank You.

Jaipur has a growing number of good colleges for MBA now. I did my MBA from Xavier’s Institute of Management, Jaipur (XIMI Jaipur) (https://ximi.ac.in/department-of-mba/) and I think it's the best college for MBA in Jaipur. It has strong placements, supportive faculty, and a practical learning approach. I got admission in another college but glad I chose XIMI as I'm placed in a very good company now.

Hi aspirant,

Your personal interests and career ambitions will play a major role in determining whether you choose to pursue an MBA or an M.Tech (http://M.Tech) after earning a B.Tech (http://B.Tech) . You should undoubtedly pursue an MBA if management and leadership are areas that interest you. However, MTech is a great choice if you want to focus on technical knowledge and research.

All the best!
