Admission: The professors here are really good at teaching. The course teaches us the basic stuff we need to know for our field. It gives us the freedom to learn more on our own. The exams are not too hard to pass you just need to put in some effort. You need to get at least a 50% to pass.
Placement: Our college is great for placements. It's well-known and gives students good chances to get hired by top companies. Your performance in interviews matters a lot. Right now, around a quarter of the students have jobs. They're making anywhere from 4.7 to 8 LPA. Companies like Asian Paints, Nomura, and General Mills hire MCA students here.
Campus: The campus has free Wi-Fi everywhere, but you gotta sign up for the college network first. The computer lab is pretty cool, and the PCs there are in good shape. They have separate hostels for guys and girls, plus the food on campus is tasty.

Admission: I'd give the course a 7 out of 10. Sometimes, we don't get enough hands-on experience, and there aren't as many field trips as I'd like. The curriculum is pretty comprehensive, and most professors have Ph.D.s and years of experience. We have exams every 2-2.5 months in the trimester system. The difficulty level is not too hard, just moderate.
Placement: I didn't go for placement, but I've heard it's good. The college is in Mumbai, so lots of big companies come here for hiring like Deloitte, KPMG, HDFC bank, and Amazon. The highest package is around INR 27 lakhs, and the average is INR 14 lakhs. Nearly 90% of students get placed. Some even start their own businesses or go abroad for higher studies. In the second semester, we get internships. I chose Primewise Consulting for an HR internship. They work closely with the college for internships.
Campus: The campus at KJ is lively, which is cool. Walking around a lot can be tiring, though. Parking spaces are limited, but they're easy to find. The college has awesome infrastructure, which is the best part. You don't need to buy books because they provide copies from the library. The library has a big collection of books. They're setting up Bloomberg terminals, and the classrooms are nice with projectors and AC. The hostel doesn't have AC, which is a downside. Laundry and gym facilities are separate, which is nice. The food can get a bit repetitive, but it's not bad. Sports events are fun, and indoor sports are played outdoors.

Admission: The teachers at K J Somaiya Institute of Management have a lot of experience in the industry. They're around during the day to help out. They focus on practical learning, which is a bit tough sometimes, but they really try hard to make sure we understand everything. They're not just here to teach us; they're like mentors throughout our time here, even after we finish the course. The course is divided into trimesters, which helps us handle the workload better. We need at least 50% to pass each subject, which keeps us aiming high and getting good results.
Placement: I'm in a batch of around 600 students at KJ Somaiya. Our summer placements are top-notch, with every student landing a job. We get offers from big companies and new startups. The highest salary is 1.28 LPA, and the average is around 60,000 LPA. Different MBA fields have job options, and companies like D. E. Shaw, Marsh, CISCO, Arcesium, and Jio Creative Labs hire us for roles like Finance, Marketing, Operations, and HR Consulting. When it comes to final placements, things start in August. We have many job options to choose from. The process is tough, but fair. They look at our resumes, projects, courses, and internships to shortlist us. In the 2022-24 batch, the highest salary offered was 28.3 LPA, and the middle one was 15 LPA. The lowest was 10.5 LPA, but almost everyone got a job. Companies like ICICI, Jio Creative Labs, and HSBC even offer PPOs based on our internships. K J Somaiya really helps us grow and find great opportunities.
Campus: I really liked the course because it has everything we need. The campus has great Wi-Fi everywhere, even in the study spots and Amphitheatre. The library has lots of info for our assignments. There are labs on each floor for stuff like Analytics and Python. The main building, Chanakya, has AC. The hostel rooms are cool some have nice garden views. But there's no AC in the rooms, which might bother some people. I'm okay with it because Mumbai's weather is not too hot. The hostel serves four meals a day, which is convenient. They also have medical help and an ambulance on standby. The canteen has lots of food choices, so that's a plus.
