Got in and Joining!!!!!!!!!

Friends all those who got admit and are joining, let us share our profile in brief. I am working with since BPCL since last 6+years. I am a B.Tech in ECE from NIT Nagpur. I belong to Patna and currently posted in Patna. My interests include politics and technology. My family consists of three people, me, my wife and my father.

Dear All,

First of all, my heartiest congratulations to all those who have made it to the program.

Seeing lot of questions coming across about choosing one institute from various available options, I would like to give some suggestions about factors to consider while making your choice.

1. One of the most important things apart from classroom learning in an MBA program is peer learning. Hence, try to get into an institute where you find more people in your experience range, or elder than you. Go through all institutes' statistics and select which fits best on this criterion.

2. Go through institutes' recruiters' list, the roles offered to candidates, the average incoming and outgoing salaries. Although these figures may not give you an accurate figure, they'll help you to understand the scenario. See if your dream companies come to the institute. See if your desired roles are offered.

3. Calculate your total cost of MBA. This should include your MBA fee and the opportunity cost. See the returns that institute offers in terms of outgoing salaries, roles or companies.

4. Go through the pedagogy and courses taught in institute. Every institute has a unique pedagogy and a unique blend of compulsory and elective courses. See what courses suit you most.

5. Go through institutes' faculty list, their qualifications, achievements and publications. These will help you a lot in moving your career towards your desired goals.

6. Check out various events organized by the institute. Who were the guests / speakers in last year's event? How can you contribute to these events and how they can contribute in molding your personality and career?

7. Go through various clubs, seminars series and Guest lectures series organized by institutes.

8. Check out the international immersion program of institutes. See what courses are taught during immersion. Are they beneficial to you?

9. Check out the living conditions and other facilities provided by institute. Is the institute providing you on-campus stay? How good are the sports and other recreation facilities?

Although it's nearly impossible to make an exhaustive list of all the "selection criteria", I have tried to highlight some point which I feel are important. Please feel free to shoot further queries.

Best Regards

Rishi

After back to back rejects from IIM-A and IIM-B, finally IIM-C has given me a reason to smile, and smile big! At the same time I feel sad that a few of the wonderful folks I met during this odyssey were not able to make it this year. Just want to say - Don't give up guys. The harder we struggle to achieve something, the more we value it. And the more we value it, greater the benefits we reap from it.

Has anyone been wait-listed?

Is there an active Whatsapp group for accepted candidates?

Hi, The admission brochure specifies that the first installment of the fees (INR 3L) needs to be paid by 9th Dec. But nothing has been specified regarding the mode of payment (cheaque/DD) and whose favor it should be. Anyone having any idea regarding this?
