Should I go for it? I have secured 91.92 percentile in CAT 2016 and have converted IMT, Ghaziabad.
I have 2 years of work experience and my aim is to be a consultant.

8 years agoYes, IMT - Ghaziabad is one of premiere B-School. MBA in marketing will also make you eligible to get a consultant post. The important thing is brand name of IMT. -

With two years of experience, I would say that you can try for better b-schools. IMT is a top 20 school no doubt but due to the large batch size, the average CTCs are lower than what they used to be 6 years ago. Also, certain top brands in finance and consulting do not visit IMT for placements. For marketing, IMT is still considered good. So, take a call. If you can make it to one of the older IIMs, XLRI, ISB, MDI, IIFT or SPJain, that would really be better and would ctalyze your path to become a consultant.
All the best. -
IMT, Ghaziabad is one of the top notch B-School that many students aspire for. Piece of advice is to make comparison, if you have another colleges in basket which are more or less same in terms IMT, Ghaziabad. You can compare by-
Placements
Opportunities
ROI
Infrastructure (if that matters)
Faculty members etc. Decide wisely and then take decision. Hope this helps.
