Life at which place is gonna be tough is an individuals point of view and a petty thing to consider when you opt for IIMs.
I am sure the next two for all of those who have made through will be that filled with labour and mixed with sweet smell of success that will follow.
Alot of guys on
PG forum are chosing IIMB over IIMC which again is an individuals choice while mine differs alot:
1. When it comes to
course content it doesn't matter much since its the student who needs to make the best of it. So on thsi one each of the IIMs are at par with the other.
2.
Experience of faculty is something on which IIMA, B & C rate almost equivalent, since a huge chunk faculty in each of these places has over 20 years of experience and anything between 15-20 years or above is all the same. Here, IIML faculty can also be said to have a reasonable teaching experience.
3. Association with
alumini would place the older IIMs above the younger ones which in this case means that IIMA shud be preffered over IIMC which in turn is above IIMB.
4.
Student exchange programmes would again place IIMA above the rest and IIMB & IIMC neck to neck based upon the standard and number of international schools interacting with these.
5.
Environment is a crucial factor for you have to stay in that place for almost 2 years. So as for the surroundings and facilities are concerned IIMK & IIMI do have an edge vis-a-vis IIML, but IIMC has a jovial environment with less pressure on students which makes them more comfortable and then IIMA has brain-storming crowd coming over from all the places so a geeky environment, while IIMB with regards to the city is a hip-happening place and last we have IIML which again has a good infrastructure.
6.
Placements is the last word which everybody looks to with a greater care and something which has always had its share of controversies with institutes assumed to be hyping it alot. But need I say more than that the foreign placements are the best in case of IIMA with around 10% of the students getting placed abroad and that national-placements (in India itself) of IIMC are rated above even IIMA for this year atleast. So companies would come with better offers next year and hopefully next to next year as well at IIMC.
Now ratings of the three IIMs from two aspects (source being taken as different magazines, polls, etc. etc. ):
Students ratings - IIMA > IIMB > IIMC
Corporate ratings - IIMA > IIMC > IIMB
Well I just brought these points up summarising most of the threads, topics and views across this forum.
Anyhow
[glow=darkblue:2ca754be1a]conratulations[/glow:2ca754be1a] from my end to all those who have converted their calls hope to meet you guys/gals next year in one of the IIMs.
