Admission: The teachers at our college all have PhDs and really know their stuff. They have practical experience in their fields too. The course work is spot on and prepares us well for what we'll face in the real world. Plus, we get hands-on experience with live projects.

Placement: Most of the students in our course found jobs after graduating. The highest salary offered was around 13 lakh per year, and the average was 9 lakh per year. Big companies like Deloitte, Federal Bank, HDFC Bank, EY, Bank of America, and KPMG come to our college to hire students. They offer roles like risk analyst, credit risk analyst, and equity research analyst to the students.

Campus: The college has a great library with Wi-Fi. The hostel, college, and mess are air-conditioned. We have a gym and indoor/outdoor games. They even have a microwave and fridge. The washrooms have geysers. We also have football and basketball courts. The data analytics lab is top-notch. The classrooms have modern technology for presentations.

Admission: The course work at IFMR is tough in the first year, more than other similar schools. But in the second year, things get easier and you can relax a bit. The faculty is good, but the college lacks personal guidance from them since many are part-time.

Placement: IFMR is a great b-school known for its focus on finance. The placements for finance students are top-notch. You can land good managerial roles in big finance companies like Credit Suisse, JPMC, EY, Deloitte, KPMG, RBS, BOFA, and more. The salary range is around 6-18 lakhs, with an average of about 9 lakhs. Great opportunities for finance students!

Campus: The college has decent infrastructure, but it's not super impressive. I wish the classrooms were arranged better, like in a step-ladder style. It would be great to have a proper auditorium for events. The hostels are nice, but the food in the mess could be improved.

Admission: The teachers are really good and they know their stuff. The courses here are practical and prepare you for the real world. The exams are fair, as long as you put in the effort. I feel like I'm getting a good education here.

Placement: As of now, placements are happening and students are really working hard to get jobs because the job market isn't great this year. Some students are also looking for jobs outside of campus. The highest salary offered in my batch so far is 20 LPA. Companies like Deloitte, TCS, and other top companies have come for campus recruitment.

Campus: The campus has great facilities. The library is quiet and well-kept. Wi-Fi works well. Classrooms and bathrooms are clean. Hostel facilities are good too. The food in the mess is good quality. Medical help is available when needed.

Admission: The teachers here are pretty cool, but they mostly use English to teach. We've got 9 people looking after 50 of us in our branch, so they keep an eye on us. They're funny too, cracking jokes during class to keep things interesting. The curriculum focuses on making us pros with analysis tools like advanced Excel, Tableau, and Power Bi. Our semester exams are out of 100 marks, following a 70/30 pattern. The exams are not too hard, just the right level of challenge.

Placement: The job opportunities are okay, but the pay is not great. On average, students get around 2.5 Lacs, with the highest offer being 11 Lacs. Companies like Accenture, Genpact, and EXL hire many students. Accenture looks for test analysts, Genpact for business analysts, and EXL for consultants. Most companies in tech hire students. In our batch, about 70% of students got jobs, but there are very few internships available. And sadly, most of them are unpaid and not very helpful.

Campus: The campus at the University is super modern with all the latest tech. Classes, benches, and the library are all sleek and colorful. Wi-Fi is there, but kinda slow. The dorms on campus have beds, cupboards, and tables in shared rooms. They keep the bathrooms clean. And yeah, we get to play both indoor and outdoor sports here.

Admission: The teachers here are really good and super helpful. They know a lot and explain things well. The course is well-planned and gets you ready for working in the industry. The exams are a bit challenging, but I don't think they're too hard. It all depends on the person.

Placement: As part of the first group of students in IFMR's integrated course, we can't say how many got jobs. In 2023, the highest package was 22.90 LPA, while the average was 13.50 LPA. Companies like Barclays, Deloitte, EY, Morgan Stanley, and Wells Fargo came for recruitment. Everyone landed internships. The main roles were in global risk analysis, wealth management, and strategy consulting.

Campus: The campus has Wi-Fi everywhere. The classrooms are big and nice, and there are lots of labs. The library is huge. Hostels have good facilities, but the food is just okay. Luckily, there are tons of yummy food places on campus. And if you get sick, there's a health center open 24/7 with an ambulance. Plus, we've got sports like badminton, football, and volleyball courts.

Admission: I picked this course for my master's degree to boost my skills in the business world. There are around 30 professors in my department who teach all the subjects. They have impressive qualifications with PhDs and professor titles. The way they teach really sticks with you, making it perfect for any student. We have two term exams and two midterms each year, so four in total  not too tough if you've been studying. The class has about 55 students. It costs INR 405000 per year, but it's worth it for the quality of education you get here.

Placement: The college's placement scene is great! Lots of companies visit every year to hire students for various roles. Big names like Deloitte, Verity, Protiviti, and Berkadia come for recruitment. Almost all students, like 98%, get placed. The remaining few opt for higher studies.

Campus: The hostel here is nice, but we need more hostels because some students can't find a spot. They end up living in PGs outside the campus, which can be expensive. The food at the hostel mess is okay, but we only get non-veg once a week. The prices are fair, though. A full meal costs around €šÂ¹40, which is enough. The area around the campus is tech-focused, so many students have to stay 5 km away in PGs. But the transport is good. Hostel fees are €šÂ¹6,000 per year.

Admission: The course curriculum is awesome, especially the finance part. It's super relevant to what's happening in the industry right now. They really focus on finance, but marketing, operations, and data science are important too. Love it!

Placement: In 2020, most students got jobs after graduating. The pay was pretty good, around 9.2 Lakh per year on average. The highest salary was 14 Lakh, while the lowest was 6.5 Lakh. Companies like EY, HSBC, and Deloitte hired students for roles like financial analyst or associate consultant. It's cool to see so many options for jobs right out of college.

Campus: The hostel and campus are pretty good, with nice facilities and a decent library. The internet in the hostel is not great, though. The food and other stuff are good. We get a mix of South Indian and North Indian dishes for lunch and dinner. There's also a restaurant on campus for students and a store for quick needs.

Admission: The teachers here know their stuff and are super smart. Most are good at teaching, but some have teaching styles I didn't love. The course material makes sense. The semester exams aren't too tough, so everyone should pass.

Placement: In my batch, one person chose not to go for placements, and another found a job off-campus. There's still one student waiting to get placed, but the college is working on it. Everyone else has already got placed. The highest salary offered was 17.4 LPA, while the lowest was around 5-6 LPA. On average, people were getting around 10 LPA. Companies like Wells Fargo, Deloitte USI, JPMC, and Citi were the top recruiters.

Campus: The facilities here are top-notch compared to other B-schools I know. I stayed in a double room with a bathroom in the hostel. They have Wi-Fi, labs, AC classrooms, and a library. The food is good, but it might be a bit challenging for North Indians to get used to.

Admission: The teachers were good at teaching us. Most were helpful, but a few seemed a bit arrogant. Overall, they were okay. We had a few semesters where we learned about modern business stuff. In the last semester, we learned about design thinking and problem-solving. I picked finance and accounting as my electives. You can pass exams by cramming in the last week, but it's better to study consistently throughout the year to do well.

Placement: Lots of top companies came to our college for placements. Some of them were ICICI Bank, HDFC Bank, Infosys, Deloitte, JP Morgan Chase, World Bank, Bank of America, Ernst and Young, and Crisil. They offered an average salary of 10 LPA, with the highest being 13.4 LPA. In the summer placements, we had recruiters like Deloitte, RBI SBI Capital, HSBC, Aditya Trading Solution, Kotak Life, and PMS Bazaar.

Campus: The campus has nice dorms with good furniture. The library, H. T Parekh, has lots of books, reports, and journals. I joined the music club my first year. The dorm rooms fit 2 students and have AC and attached bathrooms. We can't stay off-campus. The food is pretty good, and they change the menu often to suit us.

Admission: I was really interested in doing an MBA, so I signed up for this course. In the first year, we covered all the basics of management like finance, marketing, HR, operations, and strategy. Then in the second year, we got to focus more on our chosen area like Marketing, Finance, HR, or Operations. There are around 15-20 faculty members at IFMR from top universities like IIMs, XIMB, and UTKAL. Most of them have Ph.Ds and about 6-8 years of experience in the corporate world. We had mid-semester and end-semester exams in the first year, and only end-semester exams in the second year. The exams were a bit challenging, but manageable.

Placement: The job opportunities at our college are awesome! Over 100 companies come for placements. The average salary is 9 Lacs, with the highest going over 20 Lacs. Students can get placed from the 3rd semester when companies start hiring. Big companies like Deloitte, EY, TVS, HDFC, ICICI, Birla, Reliance, Loreal, Ultratech, Verity, and more visit our campus. They guarantee 100% placement. After I graduate, I want to work in a good MNC for a few years to gain experience, and then start my own business.

Campus: The Hostel rooms are really nice. You get to share a room with a buddy. Each student gets their own cupboard, desk, and bookshelf. The rooms have AC and water all day. We have to stay in the hostel on campus. The food is okay, they mix it up so it's not boring. They serve more southern dishes because we're down south. Hostel Fee: Around INR 120000 a year.
