Remarks :
I chose St. Xavier's College, Mumbai, for its reputation, alumni network, experienced faculty, and strong placement opportunities. The exposure here is incredible. For BMS admission, we had an entrance exam (100 marks) covering general knowledge, logical reasoning, critical thinking, and English literature. The final score was based on 60% entrance exam marks and 40% 12th standard marks, with no interview. BA and BSc admissions are based on 12th marks and an interview. Preparing involved current affairs, mock tests, and reading. The college offers diverse exposure and strong academics but can be competitive and sometimes lacks individual attention
Course Curriculum Overview :
BMS is a management course which covers subjects from multiple fields such as Business Law, corporate finance, marketing, organizational behaviour, Taxation, banking and insurance and much more. I realised that my aspiration of joining a consulting firm could be achieved. BMS has a wonderful faculty in Xavier's. All of the professors who teach us have had more than 5 years of industry experience. 2 of the 3 permanent faculty we have had their own business. The experience that they have gained from their work has helped us a lot. Exams are conducted at regular intervals. There are 2 internal assessments in a semester, followed by an end semester exam.
Internships Opportunities :
Multiple companies offer internships in our college. Some of them are : HUL, Morgan Stanley, Zomato etc. HUL offered the highest stipend for a 2 month Marketing internship with 2 Lakshs and PPO offer. There were other companies such as Salesforce, who also gave PPO offer.
Placement Experience :
Multiple companies have come for placements as of right now to our college. This year, many students from BMS where placed into companies such as Accenture, Bain, EY, Zomato, Third Bridge, etc, with Accenture offering the highest package of 12 LPA. Job roles include consulting associate, key accounts manager etc.

Campus Life :
I wouldn't rate the campus life so high. Even though there are multiple clubs and activities, I haven't found them so interesting and intriguing as compared to that I've experienced in my school. However, the college fest Malahar is a great experience. It happens in the month of August. College has a total of 7 libraries with tens of thousands of books.

An industry focused learning experience
Placement Experience :
I haven't reached my placement stage yet but from what I have seen the college doesn't wait until the final year to start preparing students. We have coding sessions, skills building workshops and career guidance from the beginning. Seniors also share their experiences which gives us a better idea of what to expect. I feel the college is helping us build the right foundation for internships and placements. At the same time, I think getting a good job also depends on how much effort we put into improving our own skills. So far I feel I am on the right track

The number of companies coming for campus placements go down with each passing year. The companies that do come (TresVista mostly) are quite poor in terms of work ethic and payout methods. This year, around 40-45 students from the graduating batch got campus placement out of the 110-120 that applied.
