Admission:

I wanted a college in Ahmedabad only so when I did research I got to know about various colleges in Ahmedabad which are considered good for pursuing MBA. The colleges I researched were LJ, GLS but they were not worth spending because they do not provided 100% placement and even the average packages were very low. I also reviewed college like Shanti business school and Ahmedabad University but I even did not considered getting into them because Ahmedabad University mostly focuses on startups and I wanted to do job. And Shanti business school was new and I did not trust it because of its low transparency. But all the gaps were filled by Narayana Business School as it is the college run by academicians, which provides guaranteed 100% placements with transparency and great packages.
