Entrance Preview

CAT, 97.82. This was my best choice. The MBA course is one that I wanted to take up. IIM L is the 4th best amongst the IIMs in India. Hence the decision to join it.

Course Curriculum Overview

3

It is rigorous, fast paced, all in one. You see life pass by. All round subjects. Marketing, Finance, Human Resources, Strategy. Case based learning. The curriculum should have more industry visits. The cases that are made to solve in these cases are mostly ones from the IVY league business schools. The students are allowed to be a part of clubs and committees too. These are the extra curricular activities that they get involved in.

Internships Opportunities

Yes it provides an internship. The experience is something like this. There is Day 0, Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 4 and so on. Companies with initial CV shortlists come on Day0 and the rest including GDs come on the later days.

Placement Experience

3.5

Almost similar to Ahmedabad, Bangalore and Kolkata. There are a few companies which come in these three but not in Lucknow. But it doesn't really matter much coz the number is very little.

Fees and Financial Aid

Did not avail. But yes there are a lot of scholarships that one can avail For student Exchange, OBC, Scheduled caste, Scheduled Tribes.

Alumni/Alumna

They are helpful but can be improved. Alumni conclaves should be held more often Alums are helpful but sometimes it's a bit difficult to approach them.

Exam Structure

Quizzes, mid terms and end terms. There are project submissions, assignments, papers, extra curriculars to handle in a single day. Sleep is something which people can still manage after all this.

Placement Experience:

Students when they comes back from their summer internships, starts appearing for the internship interviews. The final interviews takes place months before the completion of the course. Companies like amul, delloit, amazon, meesho, flipkart comes in the campus for hiring. Many students get the PPO from their intership companies and they dont have to sit fot the final placements. the highest package offerd is 28LPA and the lowest rangese between 6 to 8 LPA. Almost 90 percent students get placed and rest opts for starting their own startups. After completing the cousre i want to place myself in a reputed company in a reputed designation, however through our curriculum i am also looking to start my own startup and work upon it simultaneously my job.
