Question by Melvick on Jun 11, 2025

Sir my daughter in 10th got 89% completed 12th science and got 61% HSC Maharashtra board, She gave entrance for BBA in symbiosis, Xaviers but didn't get through , she gave MHCET BBA/BMS where she got 92 percentile. How is BMS stream ,later she will do MBA. As now she is not interested in IT nor in medical stream and not interested in science field and also due to low percentage, she wants to pursue commerce field , which is better stream , BMS or Bcom or BAF

Ans: BBA or BMS are the same degree with different names. Since she wants to pursue management as a career. BMS would be preferred graduate degree as compared to BCom. She can do BAF is she is interested in Accounts, else sticking to BMS would be better.

Also at 92 percentile which college to target for BBA and BMS ,If BMS then NM college (not NMIMS) or wilson which one is good through MH CET BBA/BMS

Ans: BBA and BMS are the same. What matters is the college you take up. Thakur should provide some placements. With 92 percentile it may not be possible to get NM.

My daughter had given NMIMS NPAT exam but her merit score was above 5000 ,so she got navi mumbai campus, but as we stay in vasai we will have yo take hostel accommodation, which will cost total around 22 lacs is it worth with low ROI and so much amount for graduation degree ,and I have heard only NMIMS Mumbai campus is only reputed and navi mumbai campus is only good for CS and Btech , should I wait for any good BMS college like NM or wilson at 93 MHCET BBA/BMS percentile.

Ans: Not worth it. NMIMS Navi Mumbai does not have a great feedback for its BBA course. Yes can take up a college through MHCET. Even a little above average college could be a better option considering distance as compared to going to Navi Mumbai. Can look at Thakur, Durgadeve Saraf, Nagindas Khandwala, MKES, etc

Which is better doing bcom in b grade college in vasai or bms from wilson or bba from nagindas, which is better for future , also is there any better tier 1 college mumbai with mhcet bba_bms 93 percentile score,

Ans: Technically it does not matter much, as you will have to do post graduation which becomes more important. But would prefer BMS from Wilson or BBA from Nagindas to get a better exposure.
