I have got admission from IIM Lucknow and I am expecting to convert from FMS Delhi. I am aware of the ROI and average salaries. Which one should I choose? What are campus life and job offers like?
You should definitely attend IIM Lucknow rather than FMS Delhi. IIM is a brand, a distinguishing mark that will stay with you for the rest of your life. You never give up the IIM tag for FMS, no matter how much it costs.
The FMS campus has a dingy canteen the size of a bungalow, women dressed in glittery clothing roaming around, and plenty of heat and dust. There are also no hostels. You must take a PG if you go there. Food will be provided by the PG and nearby vendors.
In terms of finances, IIML fees are not comparable to Harvard fees. If you have given money to coaching institutes, you can certainly afford IIML. You may need to take out a loan, but you can certainly afford it.
Anyway, back to culture and way of life. In comparison to FMS, IIMs are king-size. Acres of land, well-kept cultivated greenery, a clean campus, and tasty mess food. Any IIM mess is better than most engineering colleges' mess, and Lucknow's Mess is delicious. The sports complex includes a large swimming pool, Jacuzzi, steam bath, large courts, and other amenities. Every two months, there will be massive student festivals where you can interact with students from other IIMs. You'll get a free membership to a nearby club where you can wine and dine. The student exchange program with Europe at IIM Lucknow is fantastic. You have the opportunity to study alongside international students and make friends from all over the world.

Adobe, Myntra, IBM, Puma, etc. are some of the major recruiters that visit the campus placements frequently.
What is the placement scenario and scope of the IIM PGP Agri Business Management (ABM) program in general and with special reference to IIM Lucknow?
It depends on the other options available to you. ABM graduates are eligible for many of the marketing and operations jobs that normal PGP students are. Choosing an ABM at any of the top IIMs (including IIM Lucknow) is a better option than a general MBA from a tier 2 business school. Even if you take a drop for CAT, it will be a waste of your year. In an MBA, your college tag makes a big difference. In the long run, the IIM tag will benefit your corporate career a lot.
How good is IIM Lucknow PGPSM course in terms of placement?
The PGPSM course of IIM Lucknow is fairly new, and has a small batch size. The placements for this course are good enough, and the average package is comparable to the flagship PGP course of IIML.
It is quite easy for a college of this stature to get such a small batch of students placed. But PGPSM is conducted from the Noida campus, so the students lose out on the facilities and opportunities available at the main Lucknow campus.
But this course is recommended for those who want to build a career in Sustainable Management.
Why is IIM Lucknow so secretive about placement statistics, unlike other IIMs?
Unlike IIM A who reports the placement correctly and follows IPRS, every other IIM doesn’t do the same. But this secretive nature of IIM Lucknow does not conclude that it has a bad or average placement. There are few factors regarding this clause, and some of them are listed below.
- The placement of IIM Lucknow is quite good. But, there are cases of mentioning increased and inflated figures in data, and average salaries are used instead of median salaries.
- According to the newspapers, most of them get huge salary packages, which is not exactly true. 80% of the entire batch get good salary packages, while the bottom 20% struggle to get decent packages. This is the case across many B schools in India.
- There are several factors that matter in placement, which include the number of recruiters visiting the campus, the number of big brands and new brands, the average salary of top 100-200 students, etc.
So, no detailed reports are provided from IIM Lucknow regarding their placement. Detailed information is usually received from insiders like alumni and professors, without disclosure in identity.
What are the top consults that visit IIM Lucknow? What are the numbers of hires per top consulting firm at IIM Lucknow?
Instead of going with the conventional approach, let us approach this question differently. This will still be accurate and provide the correct assumptions and statistics as the question demands.
There are 20 IIMs in total and even if all of these institutions have been selecting students for their upcoming batch, the status quo is not more than one-third of the students of a batch of any IIM including IIM Ahmedabad and IIM Bangalore. This is because of factors such as a student’s attitude, previous work experience, and not because of any supply-demand constraints. It is also to be noted that none of the IIMs selects a candidate below 96%ile in CAT.
Out of the total students in a batch at IIM Lucknow, around 150 are fit for consulting roles. Similarly, 100 may be perfect for sales roles and not marketing or any finance roles. Now as we know that 150 students are available for consulting companies, all of these 150 students are made offers by consulting companies visiting the campus and none of the offers gets rejected.
If the richer Investment Banking companies visit the campus, the students will get divided by their preferences as to where to go. But, it was only in the 1990s when Nomura visited the campus of IIM Lucknow making an offer for its global business.
The list of consulting companies visiting IIM Lucknow is as follows: Bain, ATK, BCG, Accenture, McKinsey, Cognizant, HCL, KPMG, E&Y, etc.
Does a work experience of 4 years reduce my chances of getting certain jobs during placements at IIM Lucknow?
People with more than four years of experience were given one of the best placements at IIM Lucknow. You should remember that your work, experience, and area of interest are always factors in your placements. Indeed, work experience, whether relevant or irrelevant, is always a plus.
The reasons for this are straightforward:
- You know the industry better than any newcomer.
- You've been exposed to corporate culture, so you're definitely cultured.
- Whatever work you have done up to this point has undoubtedly taught you people management skills.
You have an advantage over freshmen on campus, but you must also make good use of your campus time. Yes, jobs in sales, FMCG, and so on are unlikely to shortlist you. You will almost certainly receive shortlists from consulting firms, marketing profiles, and finance profiles.
