Which one should I prefer for B.Com: St. Xavier's College, Kolkata or KIIT School of Management and why?

Hi, St. Xavier's Kolkata is best known for its Commerce Department especially B.Com (Hons). The level of Maths and Statistics that is taught is not too high. It is taught considering all types of Students (good or average at Maths). The faculty is experienced and you can easily understand whatever is taught in class. First year Maths and Stats can be a cakewalk for you, if you're quite good at basics of it. From second year, the level rises and you'll be required to learn new things. On an overall level, I can say, it is better than what is taught in other Commerce colleges. (Since, all the students are from Maths background). For your kind information, KIIT School of Management offers only the BBA course not B.com. All the best.

You should opt for economic honours in St Xavier's college Kolkata as it is very well known but it might be very difficult to get an opportunity to study economics in St. Xavier's college. So try your luck but if it doesn't click then go for other options which you have kept for yourself. Remember to surely try in St. Xavier's for economics. I would advise you to take economics Hons. in St. Xavier's, Kolkata. The course structure is extremely good and it gives a very international and national exposure.

According to my opinion KIIT School of Management (KSOM) is a better choice for pursuing B.com rather to go with St. Xavier's college. The reason to go with KIIT is that the college have More than 30% of faculty is from IIMs and More than 50% are from IIMs, IITs and other premier Technology and Business Schools. KSOM has several full time faculty members who have studied flagship PGDM courses in IIM Ahmadabad, IIM Lucknow and IIM Kozhikode. Visiting Faculty too form an important aspect of our delivery and many such members are Industry Seniors, Entrepreneurs, Motivational Speakers and Young Achievers 90% faculty with industry experience. An impressive 50% faculty at KSOM is Ph.D. holder, a figure unmatched across most B-schools of today. Being one of the best B-Schools in Eastern India, KSOM has always surpassed its standards. It comprises of a diverse range of students and faculty members from prestigious Universities from India and abroad. The brand KSOM has positioned itself wonderfully in the past two decades and has created a benchmark of its own. Life at KSOM is fun filled, adventurous, high spirited, pressurizing, yet enjoyable. Every moment tinged with the zeal to grow and make a difference, makes each one of us strikingly unique. Right from dawn to dusk, every jiffy blends well and turns each second into a moment to remember. KSOM has an impeccable record of achieving good placements every year. All eligible students with acceptable CGPA secure a placement. Average placement over the last couple of years has been 100%. Some students have opted out of placement to pursue their own venture or join the family business, while a few others secure out-of-campus placement. There are total 248 students in single MBA program and 26 DUAL MBA students and the highest placement is 14.8 LPA and the average package is 5.11 LPA and far now 230 students were placed. So, it’s better to go with KIIT School of Management.
