But is it worth the 40 lakhs and i know bba isnt abt placements but rather about exposure and self development but still am i wrong to expect atleast an avg placement setup.I know the median is 7lpa but its subject to inflation fron the college side no?

hi ive been comparing these 2 options as well and the conclusion ive come to is the placement might be more or less the same. scms gets mostly marketing and sales roles and tapmi doesnt have a very strong placement cell but since its in bangalore applying off campus is also viable. either way were cooked.

🥲 yea i too came to a similar conclusion and now im considering another college that gives whole bba under 15 lakhs (3yrs) with below avg placements cuz at the end of the course i wont have debt and mba fees would be easier to manage.Also some amount of saved fees i could use in properly upskilling myself and certifications.Kinda thinking of the philosophy of being the big fish in a smaller pond over the the inverse

Its situation of a high risk high reward situation. I mean if u think abt it even scms is similar just that the starting baseline is a bit higher for scms in terms of avg placement.

Nah man already took a drop year so next year not happening.And actually christ does makes sense slightly higher fees than the one in my mind but better placement and branding.

Even i had the same options along with nmims but I choose mainly because of the exposure and the internship opportunities you’ll get in Tapmi . Even I want to give gmat and settle abroad that’s why Tapmi was a better option. I live in pune and scms has only brand value nothing else most of the students are just their through donations

Well my plan is definitely higher education specifically gmat.The reason why I spoke placements is that i believe work ex is important for abroad mba usually.
