GLIM Chennai Reviews on Placements, Faculty and Facilities

The college is really very good but I have a few areas where it could do better- 1) More transparent placement process 2) More student driven policies 3) Better guidance and personal support for faculties

It's a great place to study. A little far from the main city of Chennai but you get everything on the campus so it's OK. The food is also very good. Course is bit hectic but it's worth every penny.

Positive point about the college is infrastructure and faculty quality. They provide us industrialists expert mentors for group capstone project. The quality of the teaching pace is great and systematic.

The college is really good in terms of academics, administration and accreditation.The college us NBA accredited. The college functions really well in terms of going with the market. Our college stands ahead in the analytics courses offering colleges in the country.

I had enjoyed my journey in great lakes. College management is very helpful and understanding.Great Lakes provided me everything I wanted.

Overall it was nice being at Great Lakes. Atleast for me it was Life Changing. My Before and After life is 180 degrees opposite.

I took their exam called Great Lakes Aptitude Test (GREAT). Scores were not shared with anyone only shortlisting was informed. During 2010, the CAT went online for the first time and it had created a state of uncertainty/ unreliability on CAT scores. Hence Great Lakes decided to take their own test.

I think one of the best things about the college is that they are always looking to improve. From our formative years, the college worked actively in identifying its areas of improvement and went about it in a professional manner. For example, we lacked a good infrastructure and now the college has one of the best infrastructures in the country. Our placements were skewed towards IT, and now it is evenly distributed across Analytics, Consulting, Finance, Manufacturing sectors. The college has remarkable branded itself, so that in about a decade since inception, its counted as a viable option among the best in the country. Yes, there are still areas of improvement as there will always be, but the hunger for improvement sets Great Lakes apart.

Entrance Exam: CAT 2014, Perecntile: 90% . Reason for selecting GLIM: One year Program will be a lot challenging but will save one year.

I took the CAT exam and scored 92.4 percentile. I chose Great Lakes because it was a 1 year program for the candidates who already had a decent corporate experience and gave us a leap in career in a short span of time. I did not contain any internship programs but asked to do a complete annual project which offered more learnings.
