I have noticed people in newer/ less-known colleges (and sometimes, surprisingly, from older, well-known colleges) use different rankings to drive home 'superiority' of their own colleges.
The MHRD has released the NIRF MBA rankings for 2020! Much like previous years, the holy trinity of IIMs - Ahmedabad, Bangalore, and Calcutta - have been ranked as India's top-3 business schools, as was expected. However, the NIRF rankings for 2020 also have many odd features - SPJIMR has been ranked below the IITs and new IIMs, IIFT appears to be in the same league as TAPMI, GLIM and ICFAI. Across other parameters like Perception, IIM Trichy has been ranked above XLRI and IIM Indore, while MDI Gurgaon has been ranked below b-schools like PSG, LIBA, and Anna University. These are major highlights from the NIRF MBA rankings for 2020!
When it comes to pursuing an MBA abroad, most candidates do not go beyond the FT Global MBA Rankings and the Quacquarelli Symonds MBA Rankings - these have served as platforms providing the most reliable rankings based on a holistic assessment of the best business schools in world. Recently, both platforms have released their rankings for the world's top MBA colleges in 2020. Here is a list of the top 50 global business schools, as ranked by the Financial Times and QS MBA Rankings.
The InsideIIM MBA Rankings - a list of the top MBA colleges in India, has been released for 2020! Find out why ISB continues to slip in our rankings, why SJMSoM IIT Bombay has been ranked better than an old IIM, and why SCMHRD has been the biggest gainer in the 2020 InsideIIM rankings of India's top MBA colleges!
IIM Calcutta beats IIM Bangalore. IIM Lucknow loses out to both FMS and XLRI Jamshedpur. ISB and NMIMS see a massive drop. Second generation IIMs still have miles to go before they break into the top tier.
The academic diversity of a business school is broadly viewed through two lenses - that of a recruiter looking to diversify his workforce, and that of an aspirant preparing for competitive exams, hoping to enter the B-School of her dreams.
Gender diversity has been a major concern for both b-schools and corporates alike, with industries demanding a more diverse work-force and capitalizing on the potential of female workers. The InsideIIM Gender Diversity Reports address this concern and portray the on-ground gender statistics in India's premier b-schools.
So, after 5 years of swatting away requests for a ranking from our users, we have finally given in. We did a simple thing. We asked our users - only those registered as CAT/MBA Aspirants on the platform to tell us how desirable each of the 48 of India's top business schools is on a scale of 1 to 100.
