Is it worth it to go into 6 new IIMs (Ranchi, Rohtak, Raipur, Udaipur, Trichy & Kashipur) rather than going for an MS?

Puneet Srivastava

05 Jan 23

Before choosing a college, try to make sure what you are really interested in. If it is MS then don’t go for any IIM. This is because you can pursue an MBA later in life if MS did not work for you. But you will not get the chance to choose Ms after your MBA. Also since it’s your area of interest, chances are you might find your talents and may want to work on them.

Now if you are sure about the course but confused about the IIMs, I will give you my honest opinion. The new IIMs are enjoying fame and glory owing to the achievements of their predecessors alone. They haven’t done much to attain the level of older IIMs. These new IIMs are poorly organized. The faculty is below average, the infrastructure is substandard and the teaching is pathetic. Yet they are here to claim the coveted IIM tag.

So if you are someone for whom the tag of IIM and its high placement matters only, you can surely go for a new IIM. But if you value education over institutions then base your decision on research.

Which one to choose between IIM Raipur, IIM Udaipur and IIM Trichy for operations?

Adrija Sinha

16 May 22

Your preference order should be IIM Trichy> IIM Udaipur> IIM Raipur. In terms of academics, ROI, placements, recruiting companies, and peer groups, IIM Trichy is the best option for Operation.

IIM Trichy placements 2022 highlights show that Operations is among the major recruiting domain. The average and highest CTC offered by the recruiters in this domain were INR 16.7 LPA and INR 22 LPA, respectively.

What are the realistic chances of converting IIM Ranchi, Trichy, Raipur, Udaipur, Kashipur calls for an NC-OBC engineer male at an 80.2 percentile?

Harshit Pandey

05 Jan 23

Yes, you do have a chance to convert calls from IIM Kashipur. However, I will suggest that you aim for at least 95 percentile.

The minimum marks required to be eligible for admission are known as cutoff marks. The table shows the cut-off for shortlisting candidates for WAT and PI rounds (NC-OBC) category

QA	45
DILR	45
VARC	45
Overall	74

Other parameters that determine your chances include work experience, profile, academic and work profile, WAT/PI and CAT score also. Their respective weightages are

Components	Weightage
CAT	25
PI	5
Class 10	5
Class 12	5
Graduation Marks	5
Post-Graduation Marks	5
Work Experience	15

Which one is better among them for a fresher without work experience: IIM Ranchi or IIM Trichy or IIM Raipur?

Srishti Gupta

20 Jul 22

IIM Trichy is the best option among these. It is especially good for Strategy, Finance, and Marketing specialization. The institute has an excellent placement record. IIM Trichy placement 2022 ended with an average CTC of INR 17.01 LPA, while the highest CTC offered this year was INR 34 LPA. It has a permanent campus and offers an enviable campus experience to students.

If you want to specialize in HR, IIM Ranchi will be a better option.

Considering that my profile is: 10th- 89.2 12th- 74.2 Grad. (Engg)- 8.5 PG- 8.0, which one is better: the NMIMS Mumbai, the IIM Rohtak, the IIM Raipur, the IIM Ranchi, the IIM Trichy, the IIM Udaipur

Aditya Shekhar

05 Jan 23

The aspects of judging a college’s worth depend on the following factors

legacy
alumni experience
perception among peers
quality of students
faculty
institute culture
events and activities
pedagogy
Summer and final placement opportunities

NMIMS renders you short-term advantages but IIMs offer many long term advantages. Even the faculty is better at IIMs than at NMIMS. But being a new institute, it lacks an alumni base. Any far-sighted person can definitely say that your IIM tag will help you in the long run.

Now based on your list, the order is

IIM Udaipur>IIM Ranchi>IIM Trichy>IIM Rohtak> IIM Raipur>IIM Kashipur

I have done my master's from IIM Raipur. How can I apply for jobs in other countries, maybe New Zealand/Canada?

Keshav Singh

09 Feb 23

When it comes to obtaining work visas in different countries, it is important to understand that most countries do not provide direct entry to international students. This is because it is a source of income for the country, so they require international students to complete their education and then apply for a work visa. However, some countries, such as those with a skill gap in their industries, are inviting high-skill migrants with more than 3 years of work experience to fill that gap.

When it comes to New Zealand, it does not provide any kind of work visa, you must have to take a course and then apply for the work visa. It is an important aspect to keep in mind while planning to work in New Zealand.

Canada, on the other hand, is providing express entry to skilled migrants if they want to settle in Canada. This is a great opportunity for those who have the skills and qualifications that Canada is looking for. If you are interested in working in Canada, it is a good idea to research the express entry program and see if you qualify.

Is IIM Raipur worth joining?

Inayat

06 Feb 23

Making a decision to join an MBA college is a significant investment in money, time, and effort. It can be a source of confusion, dilemma, and anxiety for MBA aspirants. The question of whether an MBA college is worth joining is subjective, as the returns on investment will vary for different individuals. For some, only the top-ranked colleges like IIM Ahmadabad, Bangalore, or Calcutta will be considered. In contrast, for others, a more pragmatic approach may be taken to weigh the pros and cons of different options.

IIM Raipur, in its 12th year of inception, has been making tremendous strides in its growth journey and is worth joining for several reasons.

First, placements at IIM Raipur have been consistently strong, with an increase in the number of companies visiting the campus for final and summer placements, and diversification in the roles offered. The average package has also been rising, with students being offered roles in analytics, wealth management, and other fields. Additionally, IIM Raipur is a non-profit government institution with affordable fees, compared to many private institutions.

Second, the IIM brand is a significant asset, as it is widely recognized as a symbol of excellence in the industry. It instills a sense of confidence in students and opens up opportunities for them in the corporate world.

Third, the new campus of IIM Raipur has state-of-the-art infrastructure with modern design and modern classrooms, sports complexes, and hostels with single occupancy and attached bathrooms.

Fourth, the course pedagogy at IIM Raipur offers flexibility in terms of curriculum design, which is relevant to the industry. It allows students to pursue majors in more than one specialization, and thus broaden the spectrum of career opportunities.

Finally, life at IIM Raipur is vibrant and diverse, with multiple platforms for students to explore and express interests beyond the classroom, including extra-curricular activities, student club activities, and various student bodies that give an avenue to improve leadership skills, interpersonal skills, and create memories in the process.

While there may be some shortcomings, such as the mess food or the location of Raipur, it is crucial to keep in mind that the college is making great strides in all dimensions, and is definitely worth joining compared to many other institutions in its league.

What percentile is required for IIM Raipur?

Ishaan Gupta

06 Feb 23

The table below presents the minimum performance required for candidates to be considered for the PI & WAT selection process at IIM Raipur. However, it is important to note that meeting the cut-off percentile in CAT is a necessary but not sufficient condition for being shortlisted.

It should also be noted that the actual cut-off percentiles for the 2023-25 batch at IIM Raipur may be higher. The number of candidates to be called for the PI & WAT for each category will be determined by the institute, and as a result, the cut-off percentiles may also fluctuate.

Category	IIM Raipur cut off for Section-1 VARC	IIM Raipur cut off for Section-2 DILR	IIM Raipur cut off for Section-3 Quant	IIM Raipur cut-off - Overall CAT 2022 Percentile
General	70	70	70	92
EWS	40	40	40	70
NC-OBC	45	45	45	74
SC	35	35	35	54
ST	25	25	32.5	40
DAP	25	25	32.5	40

The table above presents the minimum percentile required for candidates to be considered for the selection process at IIM Raipur. However, it is important to note that in addition to the CAT score, other factors such as academic performance in 10th, and 12th and graduation, diversity, work experience, and achievements are also taken into consideration when determining final selection.

It is important to aim for a higher percentile than the minimum stated above, as scoring 90 percentile (in the general category) may not guarantee selection, depending on the candidate's profile. The selection process at IIM Raipur is a multi-faceted and holistic one, taking into account not only the CAT score but also the performance in WAT-PI, academic percentages, diversity, work experience, and achievements to determine the final selection.

Which to choose between NITIE, IIM Kashipur, Rohtak & Raipur?

Hardik Nagar

24 Jan 23

Choose wisely by taking all B school reports with a level of caution. Instead of quitting your job and enrolling in a school where you might get a placement that is below average, opt for an Executive MBA if you are currently employed and secure. In this situation, you should choose NITIE because of its location in Mumbai, which is crucial for attracting top employers for placements.

For at least the next ten years, stay away from all new IIMs. It is not recommended at all to enroll in business schools that are less than 15 years old after leaving a secure job because they take at least 15-20 years to establish themselves. Only when your salary is between 3 and 4 LPAs should you think about enrolling in a new or infant IIM. Alternatively, you could try switching to a better organization that will likely pay you more money.

Is it worth joining IIM Rohtak as a fresher?

Arpita Ghosal

02 Aug 21

The worth of joining any institute or any program depends on what you expect and what you want. If you have the clarity of why you want to do an MBA, then everything else will fall into place. But do not worry as many freshers have this doubt regarding joining an IIM.

In IIM Rohtak, the majority of the students are freshers. The best thing about IIM Rohtak is that it will expose you to various individuals from diverse backgrounds. This will enrich your experience through peer-to-peer learning. Also, the college will prepare you for the corporate world ahead. The best thing about freshers is that they are almost like a clean slate with no general preference of one specialization over the other which students with work experience generally have.

Now the most important aspect; placements. Apart from a very few select companies, almost all others allow everyone without any bias. In fact, there are many companies that are actually looking for freshers. In terms of experience before the final placements, you can participate in corporate case competitions, guest lectures, research projects, etc. The experience you will gather through your summer internship is also very valuable. The placement committee also tries its best to bring in as many live projects as possible and you could also apply for them. All of these activities will help you to close the gap of not having work experience before significantly.
