Remarks

Pros: i) Good Campus. ii) Excellent International collaborations. iii) Pedagogy. Cons: i) Less Transparency in processes within college. ii) Placements are not audited. iii) Management is not proactive. The process involves the CAT exam followed by a GD-PI. CAT takes place in last month of November, whose results are generally out in 1st week of Jan, after a week or two, shortlists are out for students who are eligible for GDPI, after that, a composite score is calculated using GDPI scores, CAT scores and your academic profile. There are separate points for gender and academic diversity. 3) Refer to the Pros mentioned above. Among the new IIMs, it can be ranked above Rohtak, Kashipur and Ranchi. 4) Pagalguy.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

MBA is a good degree to have considering that all the process in any corporate work in synergy and not in silos. Also, it is one degree which helps you develop your personality apart from improving your technical knowledge. The faculty-student ratio is 1: 66. Faculties generally use the following method to teach: 20 lectures per term for a full credit subject, 10 for half credit. Use of case studies along with prescribed books and pots. Evaluation involves quizzes, end term, midterm and a project along with class participation. Exams happen after 10 lectures or 40 days and involve relative grading.

Internships Opportunities

2.5

There are many short term projects which can be opted if you have the specified bandwidth. SIP is below par with most of the companies being startups offering sales and marketing roles. If you get a SIP they don't announce it at that time, there is very less transparency as far as the process is concerned.

Placement Experience

2.5

Placements are pathetic too be honest, most of the companies for SIP are startups paying 10K- 20k. Expect only 10 renowned companies which will include Deloitte, ICICI Bank, Cognizant, Asian Paints, United Breweries, Kotak Mahindra etc.

Fees and Financial Aid

Total fees are 14,20,400 and are paid in 6 instalments(just before the start of each term). Scholarships are provided to economically challenged students. There is a Summer Internship Program after 1st year and final placements after the end of 2nd year.

Campus Life

3.5

The annual fest is Karmanta, it is generally held in the month of Feb. E-portal is good for searching data. It's still going online for us. Some of clubs and Committees are Admission Committee, Placement Committee, Alumni Committee, Hostel and Mess Committee, OPEP, Finlatics, Mantra, Sports club, Anasys, Rang etc.

Hostel Facilities

3.5

Hostels are single sharing with attached washroom. Radiant cooling is theirs. The room will generally have a cot, cupboard, table and chair. Mess provides both veg and non-veg food. There is an Amul Parlour inside the campus.

Interview Experience

3.5

Topics for GD/WAT include Demonetization, Triple Talaq, Work from home, Are NGOs good etc. Interview questions include 1) HR/ Hygiene ques a) Tell me about yourself b) Why MBA c) Strengths and Weaknesses (3 each) d) Biggest Achievement e) Have you ever had a conflict with your boss if yes then how did you resolve it f) Why do you want to join college XYZ g) Choice of specialisation. 2) Academics Basic questions from your undergrad (Use handbook for this). 3) Hobbies Detailed knowledge about each and every hobby that you mention Eg: Table Tennis (when did the game start), dimensions of TT Table, Racket, Awards etc. 4) Job Detailed knowledge about what the company does., Your role and your learnings. 5) PORs a) eg: Mood I me publicity team So what template did you use, situation-based questions on that like we are a student of XYZ college you have to publicize your fest to us. 6) GK (Most Important) 3) CL coaching, self introspection, guidance from current students.
