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.

Krishna Agarwal

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

10/12th marks
Favorite subject (PS: I said biology.)
Why did you choose IPM after having biology? How would these subjects complement you?

What is the function of the vitreous humor, and where is it located?

How much percentile is required to get a call from IIM Ranchi PGDHRM for a general category?

Yash Arora

19 Jan 23

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.

What is the percentile required to join IIM Ranchi?

Surya Satya

11 Jan 23

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

Your academic scores
Work experience
Personal Interview
Written Ability Score.

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.

Which is better: IIM Ranchi or MDI Murshidabad?

Aakriti Ahuja

20 Jan 23

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.

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

Which is better, IIM Ranchi or IIM Trichy?

Anmol Gupta

11 Jan 23

You will be starting an everlasting debate if you compare IIM Ranchi and IIM Trichy. Yet if I have to be part I will take Trichy’s side. To make my answer sound clear, I will list the similarities and dissimilarities of both colleges.

Similarities:

Faculty
Infrastructure
Location
Perception
Industry Connect

Dissimilarities:

Placement:

Particulars	IIM Ranchi	IIM Trichy
Number of Recruiters	250+	110
Number of Students	325	230
Highest Salary	INR 32.21 LPA	INR 34 LPA
Average Salary	INR 16.17 LPA	INR 17.01 LPA
Top Recruiters	Deloitte, Aditya Birla Group, Infosys, EY, IBM	Amazon, Dell, Nomura
Major Sectors	IT/ITES, Consulting, BFSI	Consulting, Sales & Marketing, Finance

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.

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.

Are placement stats of IIM Ranchi fake?

Ridhima Grover

11 Jan 23

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.
