LBSIM-Honest review by an ex student

It started with the GD session followed by PI. The cut off during my admission was around 82 percentile for PGDM General. I haven't availed of any quota for admission. The process was very smooth are there was regular communication regarding any update.

I was interested in MBA in marketing. Given my percentile, this was one of the best options. 1:10 is the faculty: student ratio. All the faculties had their PHD Done. The teaching method was mostly case study and PPT based discussion. It was a trimester pattern and the difficulty of exams was moderate.

Asian Paints, Marsh, EY, Deloitte. The average stipend is around 10,000 PM. My project was: Impact of E-Commerce on branded apparel stores. The outcome was that E-Commerce has led to declining in branded apparel stores.

From Trimester 4, placement season starts and goes on till last trimester for 2nd year students. Approx 100 companies visited with 250+ offers. The highest package was around 20 LPA and the average is around 8.5 LPA. Around 90% of students get placed through campus. Getting a job in the Sales and marketing domain.

The fee hike is generally 10%. They did provide some scholarship for financially challenged students but since I didn't apply for it, I don't recall the name of the scholarship. But most probably, it used to provide 50,000 financial assistance upon providing income tax details. Once, it is verified, you may be eligible for the offer.

Annual Fest: Tatva generally conducted in the month of February. There's a huge library with over 10,000 books. Classrooms had socket points for each chair and a comfortable chair. Sports: Basketball, Football, Soccer Clubs: Sparsh, Marketing Club, Cerebrate: Consulting club.

The rooms were good and each room had a washroom. The meal was so so. improvements could be done. Registration happened along with the admission. I did not opt for PG, my hostel was located at Ramphal Chowk.

The topic of GD was: Is reservation necessary. Interview questions were generic and mostly targeted at why I wanted to do MBA and all. It was taken by the director of the institute in my case. I prepared through my coaching centre and mock interviews and GD's.
