Stepping into post-graduation with TISS – this thought gave me butterflies back when I converted and cracked the interview. I was one of the few lucky ones who had an offline interview and visited the campus for one precious day. It was a dream come true.
Let’s get straight to the point – 2020 has been a mess, and every b-school student would agree. Rather than work round the clock in their gorgeous MBA campuses (ahh IIM Kozhikode, you beauty), students are stuck at home, sitting suited up in front of their laptops and attending corporate presentations. The question is - does an offline MBA match the rigor/fun/feel of an online MBA? I was as intrigued as you, so I reached out to the students of the best b-schools of India and asked them to share their experience of online MBA.
Do you think this is the right time to do an MBA? Do you think b schools are well equipped to provide a healthy and safe environment to their students in these times of pandemic? To clear all those doubts, we spoke to Dr. Ranjan Banerjee, the dean at SP Jain Institute of Management Research (SPJIMR). In this video, Dr. Banerjee talks about the current scenario in the world of education, and how b schools can use this as an opportunity to explore prospects. Dr. Banerjee addresses the most important query that students and aspirants like you have right now: Is it the right time to do an MBA? He speaks of the pros and cons of it, and how b schools like SPJIMR are preparing their campus to ensure that students get the best experience. He then speaks of the SPJIMR selection process, and how they value a candidate’s profile and experience more than their CAT percentile. He even gives tips on how a candidate with a weaker profile can make it to a top b school.

Situated in the heart of Telangana, today we take you to a b school that has Asia Pacific's largest Case Publishing Center. That's right, we're talking about ICFAI Business School, better known as IBS Hyderabad. The Institute of Chartered Financial Analysts of India, better known as ICFAI, was established in 1984 as a non-profit educational society in Telangana to provide higher education to students across India. IBS Hyderabad (Faculty of Management Studies) is a constituent of the ICFAI Foundation for Higher Education, which is declared to be a deemed-to-be-university under Section 3 of UGC Act. 1956. Since its establishment in 1995, IBS has grown impressively and achieved widespread recognition from business and industry, academia, and professional bodies, as well as an AACSB Accreditation.
Are baby IIMs worth joining? This is the first question that comes to the mind for a lot of aspirants thinking of getting an MBA from the third generation IIMs that came into being. Expanding the horizon of the brand IIM, new IIMs sprung up in different parts of the country. But, how effective have they been in imparting the IIM pedagogy, what are the placements like, how vibrant is the campus life. This and a lot more in this episode of KYC, where we try and bring in a slice of life from IIM Nagpur.
With the best corporate exposure on one hand to the most memorable moments on the other- to say that my experience over the past year at Athena School of Management, Mumbai was eventful would be an understatement!
Saathwik Kolluru, during his final year of Civil Engineering at IIT Bombay, decided to give CAT a chance. And guess what? He got 99.99%ile in his first attempt and converted IIM Calcutta. How did he manage to do that? Was it pure intellect, or a product of well-thought strategy? Get to know more about that in today’s video.
