I chose this college due to its market value, its great alumni network and due to its locations. I had applied and got selected for IMI Delhi and XIMB but eventually left it due to not having hostels and being in a non metro respectively...Read More

I applied to all baby and new IIMs, IMI Delhi, GIM Goa, Great Lakes, Welingkar Mumbai, SIBM Pune, SCMHRD, Fore Delhi, SIBM Hyderabad, XLRI Jamshedpur, NMIMS Mumbai and Bangalore. I got confirmed admission offer from IIM Kashipur, IMI Delhi, Fore Delhi, Great Lakes, Welingkar Mumbai, SIBM Hyderabad, NMIMS Bangalore I chose IMT Ghaziabad over other colleges for : 1) Brand Name of IMT in Marketing, 2) The vast alumni network of IMT, 3) The Location of IMT (Delhi NCR) Did not pay waitlist fee for GIM Goa, IIM Thrichy, IIM Jammu and few other baby IIMs. Got waitlisted for NMIMS Mumbai. Scored less than 95 percentile in SNAP, hence did not get interview call for SIBM Pune and SCMHRD. Did not meet Quant sectional cutoff of XIMB and XLRI. IMT accepts CAT score, XAT and GMAT scores. The most preferred one is CAT since its most most widely accepted exam score in India for B Schools. Students are called in for Critical Thinking and Interview based on their academic and entrance exam scores. Students then are evaluated based on their CT and PI performance, along with their CV (Extra curriculars, Awards, Honorable mentions, Achievements) I had a pretty chill experience. My Interview and WAT was scheduled in Park Hotel, Chennai. The onboarding process was smooth, we got an opportunity to interact with current students of IMT, who shared with us their college experience. Administration was considerate enough when people missed few documents, or appeared at the venue late....Read More

I chose IMT as it was a renowned name especially for marketing course. 1.The placements were decent for a college which is not in top 15 colleges of the country. 2. Good Alumni network with college legacy extending to over 40 years. 3. College being placed in the metro city provides good opportunity for industry connect which was a problem with few of the other newer IIM's. Other colleges that I applied to 1. Applied to IIIM's, XLRI, XIMB, Symbiosis colleges and NMIMS. Cat score wasn't good enough to get calls from most of the IIM's. Gave interview for XLRI HR, didn't convert. Converted XIMB but chose IMT over it. Admission process of IMT 1. CAT/XAT/GMAT test. 2. Writing test of 10 minutes where you get a topic on spot and need to write 300 odd words on the same. 3. Personal Interview round....Read More

So I applied for IMT, MDI, IIFT, XIMB, NMIMS, IMI and BITSOM. I wasn't able to convert IIFT and NMIMS because of my percentile (95.1) and NMAT score. For MDI my GDPI went well but I believe my Acads related knowledge was less. So from XIMB, IMI and IMT I chose IMT because its a great college for marketing and also its near to my house. My sister passed out from this college in 2014 and she is doing well in her life which motivated me more to get into this college. My college admission process was firstly getting the required percentile for shortlisting, then an essay writing and PI was done on the date selected. Then the result came out after one and a half months. Cutoff for CAT was above 92 percentile and for XAT it was above 94 percentile....Read More

I got confirmed admissions from Great Lakes, SIBM Bengaluru. I chose IMT G instead of the other two colleges for two primary reasons. The first one was that I wanted to enroll in a 2-year course, and Great Lakes was offering a 1-year course. So, Despite the average package of both colleges being similar, I chose IMT. Secondly, IMT G was closer to my home(Delhi) as compared to SIBM Bengaluru. So I didn't choose SIBM Bengaluru. I did my preparation with my job. So, I had limited time. But I still feel that I wasted a lot of time. If I had utilized my time a little better, I would have gotten into one of the top IIMs. Also, I focused more on quants as compared to DILR and VARC. Though I did score 99.7 in quants, I could not score as high in the other 2 sections....Read More
