Definitely, MMS of JBIMS is far better than St. Francis Institute of Management & Research.'Sleepless days and sleepless nights' is what characterizes a usual day of an MMS student at JBIMS. No one is complaining though as this institute compels its students to break their molds and unleash/ polish their skills within. Education is imparted at JBIMS by amalgamating both theoretical and practical aspects of the business. With the plethora of seminars/ placement talks held at the institute, every month wherein its alumni engage students with their rich experiences and practical business scenarios. Thus, students at this institute gain various business perspectives which give them an edge over other B-School students. Faculty at JBIMS mostly comprises of professors, managers, industry stalwarts, and its alumni and the teaching methodology is mostly case-based and the lectures are interactive in nature. The placement season at this institute lasts for about a week to 10 days and this says a lot about the legacy that JBIMS has earned over the past many years. From top-notch banks to FMCGs to general management companies, all big firms, as well as start-ups, recruit from JBIMS. Apart from all these advantages of JBIMS, I would like to caution aspiring students that life is not easy for a student at JBIMS, especially in its first year. There is no fixed timetable or lecture schedule. Students get to know about the schedule only a day prior in advance. So, this institute is known to keep you on the toes all year round. Attendance of at least 75% is also compulsory. All these characteristics make JBIMS unique and a worthy place to be in to enrich one's knowledge. Annual fees is approximately Rs 1 lakh per year.
