Hi Abhishek,
Thanks for putting up the query.
JIMS Rohini cut-off for MAT is 560 composite score and 60 percentile for CAT.
The difference between PGDM General and IB is:
in PGDM general, you need to choose your dual specializations- one will be the major one and another one will be minor among these: marketing,
finance,HR and operations whereas in PGDM IB: (International Business) you will take IB as your major specialisation and another specialisation will be finance and IB, marketing and IB.
Thanks! -
Hello Abhishek. You can apply to a course according to your MAT score. JIMS consider minimum 560 composite score PGDM General and 450 for PGDM IB.
PGDM General offers you one major specialisation and one minor specialisation among marketing, HR, finance & operations whereas PGDM IB offers you dual major specialisation in finance & IB or marketing & IB. -
PGDM general embeds all subjects and core specialization has to be selected in second year, For international business, course curriculum is highly specialized to trade and imports exports.
MAT score has great weightage and is prerequisite for admissions.
