Remarks
IIM Jammu offers admission through CAP Process. 9 IIMs participate in the CAP process. But IIM Jammu also conducts a supplementary admission process known as SAP. The initial merit list is prepared on the basis of CAT scores. I had contacted my seniors and made an intense rea=search over google to know the cutoff trend for the IIMs. This helped me create a realistic goal and achieve it. The students who are not eligible for CAP Cut-off can sit for the SAP round for which IIM Jammu releases cut-off differently. Usually, the CAT cutoff score for CAP is 95+ percentile, whereas a friend of mine had cleared the SAP round with 93 percentile.
Course Curriculum Overview
I chose the MBA Course because it gives dynamic theoretical as well as practical knowledge. The course curriculum of IIM Jammu is very interactive with a lot of seminars, industrial visits, and corporate connect. An MBA degree from such a well-known institute would help me boost my career Any student rolling for the course need to maintain a compulsory of 64.5 Core Course Credits in the first year. We had to do a summer internship of 8-10 weeks in the second year. There were another 48 credit courses that the student could choose from in the second year.
