Remarks
I chose this college because, among all the other options I had, the Return On Investment of LBSIM was way higher. The average package of 9 lacs at the total cost of 12 lacs (in case of day scholars) and around 15 lacs (in case of hostel accommodation) was not a bad deal. Candidates get calls for GD/WAT and PI based on CAT and GMAT scores, some weightage is being given to 10th, 12th, and graduation scores, and then candidates get selected/waitlisted based on their aggregate scores. GD, WAT, and the PI process are being conducted most probably in February for Delhi/NCR candidates, and then pan-India interviews are conducted. The selected candidates' list comes out in April. I read the reviews of LBSIM on blogging sites like PagalGuy.com and Quora and decided to take the course at this institute. One of the amazing pros is the institute is located in Delhi but the only con I find is the campus is quite small and I can find a majority of freshers in the batch.
Course Curriculum Overview
I am pursuing Research and Business Analytics course from this institute and I find the course curriculum to be quite relevant in today's scenario. Generally the faculty: student ratio here 1:40 and all the faculties here are well qualified, PhD holders, guest lecturers from renowned universities like IIMs, and also from the industry. We have three trimesters and term exams are generally conducted in time due to pandemic our course started a bit late so exams were also delayed by a few weeks. Level exams and monitoring are up to mark, not that difficult to pass nor the child's play as well.
Internships Opportunities
Yes, the internship is mandatory for students in MBA. Top-notch companies come for placements but mostly startup offers to come. The average stipend is 7000-8000. many top companies with nil stipend also. The roles offered are in every domain.
Placement Experience
campus placement is decent, almost 100% of students get placed. avg salary here is approx 6-7 lakhs. ROI is not so good. from the 5th trimester students are eligible for placements. The highest package was 28 lakhs.
Fees and Financial Aid
The fees structure of lbsim is Rs1167000. there is almost a 10% hike every year in the college fees. college fees do not include Rs 30000 management grid fees and 7000 alumni fees. The scholarship opportunity is given to students with family income below Rs 800000. Live projects and internship opportunities are available with the students.
Campus Life
The annual fest of lbsim is TATVA. It happens on a large scale and people from IIMs and other top colleges visit the campus for this. We have 18 clubs in lbsim and 4 cultural clubs. dancing, singing, acting and fashion designing. every club is run by students and is for students. we organize samarthaya every year, where the club organize intra college activities. LBSIM do not have very large infrastructure but is located in a small area. it does not have large grounds. but have a library and Bloomberg terminals. no other sports court are available in lbsim except table tennis. as you enter you can see the cafeteria infront itself.
Interview Experience
Yes, GD/PI rounds took place in the month of February. first took place, Wat, followed by GD and than PI. the topic for WAT was the same as GD and PI were also easy. Apart from CAT, LBSIM takes admission on the basis of GMAT. last year GD/PI was offline on the campus itself. students need to visit the campus for the process. this year all this process took place online. 60% weightage is of CAT score, 40% prior academic performance, WAT, GD and PI. admission form cost approx RS 1300/- the process was easy and smooth, the topics were mostly which were currently in news.
Other Applied Colleges
Great Lakes Institute of Management, Gurgaon | Post Graduation Diploma in Management
I found ROI of LBSIM better than this one as the fees was higher of GLIM but average package of both the institutes is at par..
IMT Nagpur | PGDM General
Brand value of LBSIM is greater than this one.
