    Hello! Being from a Mechanical Engineering background, SJMSOM (ranked among the top 20 B-schools across India) is the best choice which is followed by NMIMS and K.J. Somaiya. Athena and ITM are not that great; keep them only as backups in case of no choice left with you.

    Among all the above mentioned colleges ITM would be best as the course structure and placements are very good in this college. It gives more practical knowledge than theoretical knowledge, almost every month some events are held to engage students which will help them to learn something. The highest placement offered here is Rs 14 lakhs, minimum is Rs 5 lakhs, average is Rs 5.5-6 lakhs. Almost 80% students of current batch are placed till date.
