With its extravagant charm, IIM-Lucknow has attached emotions. Life at the institute is more than academics and studies. The extracurricular, co-curricular activities, events, fests, hostel life, and many more; are the highlights of my college life at IIM-Lucknow.

The faculty at IIM-Lucknow is extremely dedicated to the students. They are ever-ready to get their students in the best position in life. There are three terms in one year, which means 6 terms in total. There are grade points for critical evaluation of students' performance. The course syllabus is drafted in such a way that students can get insight into real-world work. The term exams conducted by the institute require stiff preparation levels. The competition is tough in terms of cracking the term exams. However, the experiential teaching of professors helped us to excel in these exams.

It is a very good rule by the B-school of a mandatory internship at the end of the first year. This opens the pathway for future placement opportunities. Experience is also a plus-point with such internship offers.

Hostel/accommodation facilities are provided by the B-school. The rooms are well-airy, clean, and are with/without sharing available. The students are given privacy too.

The GD round is instinctive and the only tip for GD is that try your level best to initiate the conversation as, in the end, valuable thoughts on the topic are not available. In the starting, there are fresh thoughts and must be spoken. FOr the interview round, be prepared for any sort of question. The interviewers can ask the weirdest of questions like what you ate today to the most thought-provoking questions. So be confident and don't worry about the correctness of the question.
