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.
Yes, IIM Ranchi is indeed worth risking your career for. It’s one of the best B-schools out there that has a plethora of facilities that most top institutes offer. My cousin decided to join IIM Ranchi because of the following features
Curriculum: IIM Ranchi offers a variety of electives in various fields. Moreover, the live project opportunities help the students gain practical experience. They are able to use the classroom concepts in the real world within real constraints of resources, people factors, and other organizational constraints.

Faculty: The faculty at IIM Ranchi is a rich blend of resident faculty and visiting faculty from top b-schools like IIM A, IIM C and FMS. They are very experienced, and humble and implement joint learning techniques, engage students in experiences, and emphasize higher-order cognitive activities in the classroom.
Research: The research culture at Ranchi is very prominent. In fact, certain courses aim solely at developing outstanding scholars for research careers at business schools/universities or careers in Government NGOs that require advanced analytical and research capabilities.
Location: Location-wise IIM Ranchi is superior owing to the Birsa Munda airport which is located at a distance of 11 km from the college.
Accommodation: IIM Ranchi provides single-occupancy rooms for accommodation. The hostel is located in National Sports Housing Complex. It has
All these facilities make IIM Ranchi among the best of the new IIMs. T.I.M.E. has ranked it AAAA+ along with older IIMs like IIM I, IIMK, IIM S and a few other top B-schools in the country.
My brother had his interview at IIM Ranchi last year for IPM. His 10th marks were 95% and 12th (PCB) marks stood at 78.4%. His interview was scheduled for the afternoon. He was welcomed by 2 male panelists who seemed quite comfortable and asked him if he had had lunch before appearing for the interview. Then they asked him the following questions
From the above list of questions, we can boldly say that the majority of the questions are aimed at testing your general knowledge. If you have a confident aura, you will easily win their favor.
Pro tip: You can direct the interview to a favorable topic by elaborating on any specific answer.
To be shortlisted for the IIM Ranchi PGDHRM program, it is generally required for a candidate to have a percentile of more than 92%. Keep in mind that the CAT score is not the only factor that is considered for the shortlisting process.
The graduation score and work experience are also taken into account, with a weightage of 15% and 10% respectively. Therefore, it is important to have a strong overall profile to increase the chances of being shortlisted for the program.
IIM Ranchi reserves the right to alter or modify the shortlisting and selection criteria for the MBA-HR program, as well as any other information related to the admissions criteria document, at any time if deemed necessary.
The admission process for the flagship course of IIM Ranchi is done through CAP (Common Admission Process), which is conducted by IIM Rohtak for 9 IIMs.
IIM Ranchi has released the admission policy and selection criteria for its flagship MBA course. The qualifying CAT cut-off for the batch of 2022-24 is 93 percentile as per IIM CAP criteria. IIM Ranchi CAT Cutoff usually remains around the 92 Percentile. For the past 2 years the CAT Cutoff was 94 Percentile but this year it has been reduced.
However, the final shortlisting depends upon many parameters such as
If you are shortlisted and do well in WAT and PI, you can surely get admission in IIM Ranchi.
IIM Ranchi also has a PGDHRM course, for which it conducts its separate admission rounds, so you can apply for that as well.
When it comes to comparing IIM Ranchi and MDI Murshidabad, there are a few key factors to consider. In terms of brand value among IIMs, IIM Ranchi may be considered better. However, it's worth noting that the fees at MDI Murshidabad are lower than those at IIM Ranchi.
One important consideration is the infrastructure of the two institutes. MDI Murshidabad has its own campus and hostel facilities onsite, while IIM Ranchi does not have a campus. This may be a factor for students who prefer on-campus housing. Additionally, while IIM Ranchi is known for its HRM program, MDI Murshidabad may be considered better for other specializations. Ultimately, the decision between these two institutes will depend on the individual student's priorities and needs.
Yes, you do have a chance to convert calls from IIM Kashipur. However, I will suggest that you aim for at least 95 percentile.

From the table we can clearly see that the placement opportunities are better at Trichy than at Ranchi.
Campus: One major difference between the 2 IIMs is that Trichy has a permanent campus whereas Ranchi does not. So if you want to live a dreamy college life with amazing accommodation facilities, then Trichy is for you.
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.
The placement statistics released by IIM Ranchi are not particularly fake but yes very exaggerated. For example, the recruiters who just recruited 2-3 students a couple of years ago are still added to the list of recruiters. This tactic is employed to show off the brands of top companies.
The CTC is calculated wrongly and also exaggerated. The same role offered by the same company to students of other B Schools is shown at IIM Ranchi to offer a CTC higher to its own students. This reality is wrong and not what the company promised. This has now come into the notice of many and IIM Ranchi Is slowly losing its reputation. The students feel cheated because many students chose Ranchi over other IIMs despite calls from them just because of its placement statistics.
One way to clear the misconception is to check the NIRF placement report. You can see from it that Ranchi lies below Trichy and even Udaipur. So do your part of research before finally choosing IIM Ranchi.
