Go Beyond The Indian MBA - An Introduction To Management Education Abroad | InsideIIM MBA Abroad Series

India is a country with a population of over 1.2 billion people (as per that last census conducted in 2011). Of these 1.2 billion, approximately 0.1% of the population appears for the exam that is the gateway to the highly venerable management institutes of the country - the IIMs. Of these 0.1% of the applicants, only 1% are shortlisted to fill the PGP seats across the 20 IIMs across the country. A few hundred more fill-up the seats at other top non-IIM management institutes, while the rest kill their dreams of joining an elite management institute and end up joining B-schools that may be subpar in terms of pedagogy and/or placements, or decide to give the exam another shot and hope that lady luck smiles upon them.
