Remarks

I applied only to IBS Mumbai and I have not availed of any quota. The minimum marks to apply was 50% above on your degrees and 10th and 12th and the minimum age to apply is 20. The admission process was really smooth even though it was online due to the Covid situation. There was a counselling day for all the IBS aspirants and we got all the information as to how to prepare ourselves for the GD/PI and crucial data was provided such as the placement packages and companies that come to the placement campus.

Course Curriculum Overview

I wanted to gain knowledge about the business world and to give my career a kick start. 1 faculty: 65 students. The faculty's qualifications are PhD or minimum masters in the respective subject and the teaching method are poor. The term exams are held every 2 months and it is very difficult to pass.

Class Size: 65Course Fees: INR 400000 per year

Internships Opportunities

HDFC Life and the role was to research executive intern and no stipend was offered. Employee engagement activities were conducted, screening of resumes, understanding the profile of financial advisors and monitoring their performances.

Placement Experience

From semester 3, students become eligible for campus placements. Many large and small companies visit the campus for giving the student's job opportunities. So far the process hasn't started yet, so no offer has been made until now. 95% of students get placed. After getting the degree, just want to get a good corporate job and settle in.

Fees and Financial Aid

I did not get any scholarship from the college. Financial assistance is fine, I can't say much as I didn't take any loan but they do provide financial assistance on loans from the Bank of Baroda. I am still in semester 3, so actually waiting for the placements.

Campus Life

1.5

I have not been to the campus at all so I don't have any idea about the amenities or neither am I a part of any tech fest. The books are available in the library. There are plenty of clubs that students participate in and gain knowledge about their field.

Interview Experience

3.5

Due to Covid, there wasn't any GD held only personal interviews and the questions that were asked were pretty basic. They just wanted to know the student as a person and their background. I prepared for my personal interviews by practising with my friends and acquaintances.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I am preparing for a government job, so I took admission in this course just to get a graduation degree and not for any other reason. There should be some improvement in the lab and also in the exam pattern. The timing of our exam is 2:30 hours which is less time because the exam is lengthy.

Honest review

Course Curriculum Overview:

I think this coast does not focus more on technical aspects. I think this course should focus more on the coding part. And the exam should not be conducted just before the semester exam it should be conducted at least 3 or 2 months before the semester exam so that student can start prepping from the starting

Opt to become a veterinarian.

Placement Experience:

From the final year i.e. after 4.5 years students are eligible for an internship. The 6-month internship is to be done within the campus and the rest of the 6 months in another organization. Many dairy, poultry, food processing, and wool processing companies visit the college for hiring students. Also, many research fields are available after the course with great scope. Around 5 to 7 lakh per annum packages are easily available after the course which is generally offered by firms visiting the college. Best students based on their academic performances are preferred. Near about 60 to 70 % are generally getting placement. Others generally opt for further studies. AMUL, Ananda dairies, poultry firms, many renowned slaughterhouses, and research organizations are some places where veterinarians get appointed other than clinical practices.

The selection process consisted of an aptitude round followed by a Group discussion and a personal interview in the next round if selected in the first round. GD and PI both happen on the same day in Hyderabad Campus. They have shortlisted the students on behalf of the Aptitude test, GD and PI.
