What makes IIM Visakhapatnam hostels the best hostels?

Calling the IIM Vishakhapatnam’s hostel the best is literally not an understatement. It’s the world-class amenities combined with the serene surroundings that make it seem like a resort-like experience. One of my friends was a PGP student at Vizag and stayed at a beach-facing hostel. The sunrise and sunset views from the balcony and terrace make it seem like you are in a hotel and make your hostel life really peaceful and more home-like. Apart from the spectacular views, other major facilities are The cleaning staff cleans the room and table and makes your bed every morning. Every flat is given 2 kettles to boil milk or make Maggie Every flat has a common area with a TV, sofas, and a refrigerator. The rooms have basic furniture like a bed, mattress, study table, chairs, etc. Everyone student is allotted a separate wardrobe The food is served from a 3-star hotel and is one of the best you can get at a hostel. It caters to every taste bud. The terrace has washing machines so that the students can do their laundry in an open area Electrical appliances like AC and geysers make your summers and winters comfortable Overall IIM Vizag has excellent hostel facilities and if you are depressed or stressed about your academics you can take a break by just sitting on the balcony and taking in the breathtaking view.

Are the six newest IIMs a good option? (i.e., IIM Nagpur, Vizag, Amritsar, Sirmaur, Bodhgaya, Sambalpur)

It depends on your profile. If you are a general category student with good academic records - more than 85 percent throughout 10th, 12th, and graduation, then old IIMs will be better. If you aren’t getting the old IIMs, you can consider new IIMs like IIM Nagpur, Sambalpur, Vizag, Amritsar, Sirmaur, and Bodhgaya. Being part of any recently established institute is a different experience altogether. You will get to set the culture on campus which your juniors will inherit. These baby IIMs have decent placements. You will get placement opportunities through campus drive if you have a good academic record. Here are the average CTC statistics for these IIMs. Institute Average CTC IIM Nagpur INR 15.21 LPA IIM Vizag INR 15.06 LPA IIM Amritsar INR 14.63 LPA IIM Sirmaur INR 12.74 LPA IIM Bodhgaya INR 12.36 LPA IIM Sambalpur INR 12.64 LPA If you are willing to work hard and want to take advantage of opportunities that come with newly established institutes, then you should join these new IIMs.

Which one is better, IIM Visakhapatnam or Nagpur?

IIM Visakhapatnam is not better than IIM Nagpur yet it is at a level with it. There are many reasons why people choose it over Nagpur. It is the best among the newest IIMs. IIM Visakhapatnam’s spectacular growth and placement statistics are a testament to that fact. The horse-shoe-shaped classrooms are the highlight of its infrastructure. There are 2 whiteboards with projectors each. The new IIMs still lack this facility The hostel facilities are also very clean and hygienic with a variety of cuisine offered at the mess. The location in itself is a USP of the college. The serene surroundings with spectacular views and fresh air attract many nature lovers. So if your expectations are low regarding placements and facilities, IIM Visakhapatnam is the best new IIM you can go for.

What should I choose between IIM Visakhapatnam and DoMS IIT Madras?

At IIT Madras, you have the privilege of having taken a course in R&D Management at the Department of Management Studies (DOMS) at the institution. The course is renowned for its comprehensive curriculum that covers various aspects of R&D management, including product development, project management, and technology commercialization. The faculty is well-experienced and knowledgeable in their respective fields, and they are known to provide valuable insights and guidance to students. The DOMS at IIT Madras is well-equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and infrastructure, making it an ideal place to pursue management education. IIM Visakhapatnam, on the other hand, is one of the new IIMs that was established in 2015. It offers the Post Graduate Program in Management (PGP), which is designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the various functional areas of management, as well as the skills and knowledge required to become successful managers. IIMs have a well-established brand name in the field of management education and are known for their rigorous curriculum, highly-qualified faculty, and excellent placement record. In conclusion, both IIT Madras and IIM Visakhapatnam are reputed institutions that offer quality management education. The choice between the two will ultimately depend on your personal and professional goals, as well as your preferences. You should consider factors such as curriculum, faculty, infrastructure, and location, among others, before making a decision. It is also recommended that you research both institutions in-depth and visit their campuses to get a better understanding of the learning environment and culture.

Which is better: IIM Vizag, IIM Nagpur, or NMIMS Mumbai?

My friend was in a similar dilemma a few years ago. She had offers from NMIMS, SIBM and IIM Nagpur. She wasn’t sure if choosing a new IIM over these B Schools would be a wise decision. Yet she chose Nagpur in the end. Some major reasons that led her to choose it were Campus: IIM Nagpur and Vizag both have their own residential campus and amazing hostel facilities. It helps you make new friends and spend time in extracurricular activities and group discussions once your classes are over NMIMS on the other hand lacks hostel facilities Location: Nagpur and Vizag both have a location advantage over other new IIMs in the sense that they have airport facilities promoting connectivity.NMIMS enjoys the best location and many top firms visit the campus because of it. But in reality, it is only the ones with the best profiles that get good roles; others are offered average packages only. ROI: NMIMS does not offer a good ROU because of its high living expenses. Nagpur leads in this aspect because of minimal living expenses, lower fees than other IIMs, and similar packages. Placements: NMIMS has developed a strong alumni base and therefore attracts many top firms. But like I mentioned above, 80% of the batch is offered average roles. It’s only the ones with spectacular profiles that get the best roles. IIMs have a balanced placement scenario in contrast. Brand Value: Despite the unending debate, one cannot deny the brand value of the IIM tag. There are certain HRs from top organizations who still prefer IIM students over other top B Schools. This is the sole reason why the new IIMs give an edge to B Schools like IMT, SIBM Pune, etc. Based on the above parameters you have to make a decision according to your preferences. My friend was glad she chose IIM Nagpur and it helped her uplift her career through various opportunities.

How does Prof. Jayasankar Ramanathan teach at IIM Visakhapatnam?

My sister was a student at IIM Visakhapatnam and always praised Prof. Jayasankar Ramanathan specifically. She used to say that although every teacher in IIMs is unique, this particular professor had the ability to grab the attention of the weakest minds. His pedagogy was like no other. Here are some highlights of his unique teaching methodology. Right on the first day he will give you a question paper with basic questions related to your prior knowledge of marketing. He does the same on the last day and now you have to answer based on the knowledge you have acquired in 2 years. Then he gives you both the answer sheets and asks you to compare your answers. The drastic difference stems from the elaborate knowledge you have acquired in 2 years. The topics are usually covered through case discussions The students are selected for class discussions by drawing their roll numbers anonymously He is amazing with drawing insights from numbers and tables He prefers formal contact between students and himself via mail or prior appointments. He focuses a lot on disciplinary conduct He refuses to clear doubts in the middle of the class. You can jot them down and ask them the next day He assigns extremely mind-boggling projects that require your entire attention He gives more weightage to projects and ensures comprehensive evaluation. He sometimes arranged some fun games that indirectly promote learning The best part was that he used the same cards he used to draw names for class discussions and wrote best wishes in them and gave them to the students. All these unique methodologies made him everyone’s favorite.
