When we published IIM Lucknow's Summer Placement Report
here last year, we said that it was probably their best performance. However, this year IIM Lucknow summer placements have surpassed even that and they have firmly established themselves in the top four campuses in the country and are ready to take on IIM ABC across domains and functions. The gender diversity also seems to have done the magic with a record 177 women participating in Summer Placements at any IIM in the country for the first time (Earlier, even 3 batches put together would not have 177 women!)
