There are also a lot of live project opportunities available.

Campus Life
The campus life is really good. There's a library that is open all day, plus you also get access to the digital library; you'll never be short of any book/research paper. The classrooms are well-designed and equipped with modern teaching technologies like projectors, sound systems, etc. You'll get individual rooms in the hostel; there's a ration shop and three food outlets, including one Amul outlet. There are a lot of clubs and societies that give you enough exposure. Also, there are three major fests names unmade, vista, and eximius.
Hostel Facilities
The hostel facility is really good. You'll get single-furnished rooms. The hostel is compulsory for PGP1 students and you get in during the time of registration. Facilities like washing machines, geysers, daily cleaning, etc., are available. You don't need to rent a PG.
Admission
Any candidate having a bachelor's degree and a minimum of 50% marks (Gen) is eligible for admission at IIM Bangalore. Candidates must appear for the Common Admission Test (CAT) to get an admission call. The calls are rolled out based on different criteria like CAT Score, 10th marks, 12th marks, UG marks, Work Ex, etc. The weightage given to each criterion changes every year. Post receiving a call, candidates need to appear for the Written Ability Test and PI Process. The WAT checks your analytical writing skills, and the PI judges your caliber. Again based on different criteria, including WAT and PI, candidates are offered admission to the course. The reservation benefits can be availed similarly to any other government institution.
Interview Experience
There was no group discussion; however, there was a written ability test and personal Interview. My WAT topic was related to Covid-19. The interview was based on finance and economics questions, along with a discussion on technologies such as metaverse. I did self-preparation, mostly through YouTube and newspapers.
