Although nearly 50% of the batch(2007) has IT background but the competition is very high for selecting students and hence little choosy...compare that to people from Marketing/Sales background which will be 5 to 10% max of the batch size.

Hi ..

Most of us her are with work ex and have a steady / permanent job..

As far as placements go, most international B Schools do not have a campus recruitment scheme the way Indian B Schools have... However I believe that an MBA form AIM sets you up for a career in South East Asia..

Besides they have started a Career Management Service recently.. DO check the website for details..
