What is IPM course from IIM Indore?
IPM is a 5 years integrated program launched by IIM Indore. It is the first of its kind in India. It is especially for students with potential in management and leadership. The eligibility criteria for the program is class 12th in CBSE or equivalent boards.
- In the first 3 years, a foundation is laid properly and the last 2 years are left for management only. A lot of students opt for the institute’s 2-year post-graduate program in Management.
- The syllabus and the wide exposure help the students at IPM for different leadership roles. Apart from the rigorous academics, IPM students participate in various extracurricular activities.
- As an IPM student, you will have to complete a social internship by the 3rd year. Apart from the social internship IPM students also do a business internship in their 4th and 5th years to increase their practical knowledge.
Hope this clears your doubts about the IPM program.
Between MDI Murshidabad and BIMTECH Noida (PGDM), which one is better?
MDI Murshidabad is better, among these. It is a branch of MDI Gurgaon, which is among the elite B-Schools of the country. It has a good placement record and offers decent ROI. MDI Murshidabad placements 2022 witnessed a median CTC of INR 10 LPA. The highest CTC offered this year was INR 22 LPA. Infosys, KPMG, Burger Paints, etc. frequent the campus placements.
Which is better, VIT Pune EXTC or VIIT Pune CSE?
The first step is to determine if you are interested in electronics or computers. However, you also need to consider the chances of getting a job. The perk of picking electronics over computers is that you can learn the trending programming language and get a job easily which, ultimately, most of the computer science students will also end up getting the same.
VIT would be a far superior overall college than VIIT. Although VIIT students are also allowed to sit with VIT during placements some companies don’t allow them to sit for placements. Choosing CS will make it impossible to take up jobs that are in the core electronics domain.
Overall, I feel VIT Electronics is better than VIIT CS any day.
Which one is better: Manipal university or NIT Warangal?
Both Manipal University and NIT Warangal are highly regarded institutes with a reputation for imparting excellent education. You can however consider the following points while choosing one between the two
- NIT Warangal is better than Manipal University in terms of placements.
- Manipal University has a better infrastructure than NIT Warangal.
Had I been in your place, I would have chosen NIT Warangal because placements and job opportunities value more than infrastructure, at least for me.
However, I am definitely not claiming that Manipal is bad In Fact it’s the best private engineering college after BITS. Moreover, placements are subjective and also depend on the individual as much as on the institutes. With the right mindset, one can avail equal opportunities if not more at both colleges.
Which one is better if I like both of them equally, 31 LPA in a big product-based company or IIM Lucknow?
Many people in fact almost everyone going to say that a package of INR 31 LPA is a more glittering option than MBA at IIM Lucknow. However, I beg to differ. My opinion is based on the thinking that no matter how much you earn, an MBA is always a game changer. This is because you learn a lot in a classroom full of masterminds and the best professors than you do at work. Although you might be able to apply those skills only after a long time that’s the case with MBA, it does not give you short-term benefits, it provides long-term benefits. It ends up being the reason for your success and excellence.
MBA is not a specialization but rather a general course. It teaches everything in finance, accounting, and marketing. A successful leader requires basic knowledge of anything and everything which is possible through an MBA only. It will open gates for you to carbon black manufacturers, Steel manufacturers, and so on. You can plan your career after your MBA and climb the ladder slowly but swiftly. From a tech company to a core company to a banking sector, you can switch your posts depending on your interests.
Another major advantage of pursuing an MBA is making some great friends that will become great leaders and broaden your networks.
Which is better, MIT SOM or Indira Institute of Management?
My sister did her bachelor’s degree in engineering from MIT and MBA from Indira Institute of Management. So, I have some ideas about both the institutes.

- MBA in Indira Institute of Management has a much better curriculum and infrastructure for the overall development of its students.
- Indira Institute of Management conducts an excellent soft-skill program, which includes life problem solving, consulting selling, negotiation skills, etc in the MBA curriculum, which is very helpful for students.
Considering the above factors, it is safe to say Indira Institute of Management is a much better option for MBA or PGPM than MIT SOM, with an overall better placement record.

Which course is the closest alternative to IPM IIM Indore?
The IPM program at IIM Indore primarily focuses on students who complete their higher secondary. The program is similar to pursuing a 3 year BBA course, or graduating in Economics and moving on to MBA.
Here are some points you might want to take into account before deciding on IPM.
- Following the completion of your BBA degree from one of the top 10 institutes, you might want to choose to go for an MBA via CAT, XAT, XAT, GMAT, or others. In graduation, you will definitely have an edge over the students of IPM. But having the IIM tag definitely offers some advantages.
- However, if you become eligible to enroll at one of the major top 10 B-schools in India following the completion of BBA, then you will have an upper hand nonetheless. In this case, you will not regret the decision of not pursuing IPM.
- One of the most essential topics to discuss is the fee structure. IPM, by far, costs students over 30 Lakhs.
However, if you still go on to choose IIM, then the brand value it offers, can undeniably be beneficial over several other engineering students because of the diversity rule of IIMs. So, for the IPM program, if you are getting it. Otherwise, you can choose to do an MBA after your graduation too.
