IIT Madras, Private B-Schools More Acad. Diverse Than Most IIMs | Academic Diversity Report, Class of 2021
The latest edition of the InsideIIM Academic Diversity report has brought out interesting facts and figures around diversity in Indian business schools. In terms of academic diversity within MBA batches graduating in 2021, many private business schools have showcased highly diverse batches, including some that in-fact have more non-engineers than engineers in their MBA batches - a rare occurrence amongst India's top b-schools. But what of the IIMs? How impactful have been initiatives by IIMs to introduce more diversity in the MBA classroom? This report, based on data for the MBA class of 2021, provides key insights about academic diversity at India's top b-schools.

MBAs Who Followed The Unconventional Paths And Led By Examples
Whenever it’s asked, “Why MBA?” no matter what answer we provide, somewhere down the line, the hidden answer is a job or quest for a better life! We have read several struggle stories of people making it to the much-coveted BSchools of India, but today, let’s read about those who indulged in a completely different path altogether either before or after their MBA and what were the life lessons they derived from their journey!

64 To 84 To 98.5 Percentile I 3 Attempts To Bell The CAT, Ft. Dipshika Damani
“When you feel like quitting, think about why you started.” This is the quote that helped me throughout my CAT journey. During my 3rd year of engineering, I decided to pursue an MBA but under one condition: it should only be from the top 10 B-Schools of India. As I started my journey, it started getting tougher and tougher by the day. Though I attended coaching, I didn’t really understand things. My friends were getting good scores in mocks, whereas I kept struggling with Verbal which always used to be my strength. I started reading lots of answers on Quora about the strategy to be followed for acing the exam and other success stories to keep myself motivated. I would think and tell myself, “If he/she can do this, then why can’t I?” But I reached a time when Quora got so overwhelming that I ended up deleting the app. I lost my confidence and just a day before CAT, I started suffering from high fever. The D-Day was a disaster. I was on high-power medication so it affected my performance. I could barely read passages and somehow managed the other sections. My friends did great. I scored a mere 64.76 percentile. Nobody except my parents knew about my real score and I decided to take another attempt. Meanwhile, I also got placed in one of the top IT companies of India.
