The fundamental explanation for the disparity in seat growth and outgoing student quality is that the rapid expansion of tier-2 & tier-3 management education schools has not been matched by a proportionate improvement in management education quality.
Lower-tier b-schools generally revise their curriculum every three years, and the majority of the programs are theoretical, with no room for skill-based programs or industry exposure. Students entering these universities have no notion of the need for skills and believe that acquiring a degree is the only way to get a good job.
With the lack of skill-based knowledge and uptake of management curriculum, the students’ careers are more likely to be hampered. According to Economic Times, salary packages in lower-tier colleges haven't altered significantly in recent years, and while top b-school students have experienced a 6.4% boost in annual compensation, lower-tiered b-school students have only seen a meagre 2-3% growth.
So, what are your best chances at acquiring top offers as a student of lower-tiered b-schools?

Quality management education is primarily reliant on industrial exposure, and the fact that 47% of students face unemployment due to a lack of industry exposure proves it. As an MBA student, you can acquire it through Summer Placements.
Deloitte's chief talent officer stated that when selecting talent from lower-tier b-schools, they prefer the summer placements route. This assertion has been supported by several other recruiters as well.
According to the Dean of NMIMS Mumbai, 30% of the 2022 graduating class was placed through the PPO method, whereas SPJIMR verifies that half of their 2022 batch received PPOs (123 PPOs). FMS received 65 PPOs for their 2022 batch of students, and 46 XIMB students received PPOs this year.
Every year, the number of PPOs provided to b-school students increases significantly. The recent placement incidents indicate that summer placements are crucial for your final placements as well as your career’s success.
