IIMC is best journalism school India has. It is the most affordable, most competitive and equal opportunity provider in terms of recruitment. It represents each region, section and community of India as desired by the constitution of India and in turn creates a balanced newsroom scenario across media organizations.
If you are an IIMC Entrance aspirant from a small or non-descript place, from difficult economic and cultural background you have many reasons to be hopeful. The entrance examination is designed to test your knowledge, capability and passion. Nothing that you don’t know will be a deterrent. I am sure if you are dreaming of becoming a media professional you must be reading a lot. You must have a world view of your own. You must have evolved as a human being. That is what matters. Don’t break your head over what you lack in your knowledge or personality by reading some of the finest writings in newspapers or watching some of the best television anchors. They also had similar inhibitions and confusion like you when they were at your stage.
IIMC will admit you with all sincerity if you are sincere in your approach. Hard work for written examination and an open attitude for the group discussion and interviews will help. You don’t need to have style alone when your personality will be tested. What they want is real substance and if in addition you have style nothing like it.
Please dream big and have faith. Your time is just around the corner. Best of luck to all the dreamy eyed readers of this post.
