Entrance Preview
CAT, and GD / Interview . Scores are not released for these during my days. But i think a minimum of 100 questions must be answered correctly to get admission that time was the norm which pretty much was the case here also.
Internships Opportunities
Internship experience was in the summer, we had a very good summer placements and people were placed around the country in several big 500 companies. The average stipend was upto the market standard.
Placement Experience
Placement was good. 100% of the batch was placed after the placements Day 2. Companies ranged from FMCG, consulting , IT and manufacturing and Banks. People pretty much had jobs upto their expectations.
College Events
IRIS was one of the events we celebrated, we organized it for the first time being the 2nd batch of IIM, and invited several colleges from India. The participation was really good and we even had a rock show in the end which was a good hit.
Fees and Financial Aid
Loans was offered by the banks some students had opted which was on nominal interest rates. Government and private banks both were offering loans to students.
Exam Structure
Exams we re on going, there was not specific exam days, they ranged from surprise quizzes to midterm and end terms, but almost through out the term we had exams and it really does not matter when the midterm and end term came as you have been pretty much upto speed with everything, a revision was what basically needed if you have been attending classes, and BTW attendance was more than 90% mandatory.
Faculty
Faculty was mix of permanent and Guest. As this IIM was new a lot of faculty were guest and heavily influenced by IIM A, and C. This helped us to benefit in our understanding a lot. With class size being smaller every student got a good focus from the faculty and our involvement with the faculty were very high which resulted in them sharing more knowledge than usually possible in a normal class scenario.
