Entrance Preview

Any of the national management exam scores are accepted. I had given the CAT. The college has an online application process. Students are requested to check out other colleges before taking admission here.

Internships Opportunities

I was an academic trainee with KPMG India. I worked on reconciliation of accounts and validation of accounts using ERP tools, and dealt in preparation of various reports on reconciliation. I did this while pursuing my MBA. The college highly encourage internships to allow students to implement what they have learned.

Placement Experience

Placement scenario is not great. There are many placements taking place but the rate is not 100% and the salaries are not high. I strongly advise students to seek jobs on their own too. The proximity to Bangalore helps to connect with many employers and you can go for interviews easily.

College Events

E-cell student coordinator: I was student coordinator for entrepreneurship development cell, I have attend various workshops and also have organized various events on behalf of E-cell. Senior executive member in C&PR AIMS: I was selected as one of the senior executive member for placement assistance in college and also have managed various campus drive at college.

Fees and Financial Aid

They have a President's scholarship by some trust. It gives discount on fees as per graduation marks.

Campus Life

3.5

Since I was active in extra-curricular activities, I had a fruitful time on the campus. There are student clubs in the college that you must participate in. That way academics and extra-curricular activities are balanced.

Hostel Facilities

2.5

Hostel buildings are good. They are clean and well-maintained. The hostel rooms are on sharing basis. There are separate hostels for girls and boys. The food from the canteen is not good however.

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Exam Structure

MBA follows a semester pattern of exam.

Faculty

2.5

Teachers here are not experienced industry professors. You will mostly find recent graduates or those who have graduated in the last 5 years teaching as management professors when they themselves have no work experience of the subjects that they are teaching. I have given low ratings to the academics and faculty for this reason.

Review on ABBS

The enrolling process is very simple as you only need the original along with a few copies of your 10+2 (or equivalent exam) result and your Aadhaar Card copy along with some passport-size photos of you with minimal registration fees of 1000. There is no entrance exam for any course in our college other than PG. The admission process was very smooth I didn't face any hustle thing was instructed from the first day I contacted them for the procedures for the admission....Read More
