How was your first day at IIM Indore IPM?
Here is the experience of one of the IPM students of IIM Indore.
She completed some paperwork and a brief registration process as soon as she arrived at the campus and Hostel Reception Center, after which she was given her temporary identity card, room key, etc. She also completed the course registration and other paperwork later that day.
The following two days of Induction were when the real action began.
On the second day, she and her friends hurried to the auditorium after hearing an introduction to the faculty, information about IGNOU, and the format of the IPM course. The remaining three days of the induction passed slowly. Despite the fact that students were involved and there were actual activities.
You are prepared for life at IIM, which is tedious and enjoyable but irregularly busy, during the 7-hour continuous induction.
What will be the future prospects after an IPM in IIM Jammu?

This is because IIM is a brand image and the age of the institute does not matter much. What matters is your willingness to pursue a management career.
IIM Jammu launched its 5-year Integrated Programme in Management (IPM) in 2021 and this will be the third batch that will get admission in 2023. As of now, no batch has passed out yet so it’s difficult to ascertain its worth. But for reference, I have tabulated the stats for PGP students

Is it better to study B.Com from an average DU college like Shyam Lal, or Sri Aurobindo (Evening), or study for a BBA in IB from Amity University?
