IIM Indore which we passionately call as Planet-I is one of the unique campuses that one will get to see in any field. With over 560 students in each batch of PGP combined with IPMers and other management courses, it is like a small town in itself. With such a huge batch what you get to interact with people coming from an array of background. Doctors, engineers, CA’s, people with an arts degree, people with start-ups and much more. Due to this one can learn a lot just by peer learning. Moreover, due to such a huge batch size, you can daily see in the early morning or late nights people running in the gym, putting hours in the basketball court, playing guitar etc in addition to the hectic academic and placement schedule you really get inspired. You get the thought that if someone who is your peer can manage so many things beautifully surely you can too. Apart from these one unique speciality about Planet-I is its nightlife. I can guarantee that when it comes to that area IIIM Indore has to be one of the best campuses in India without a doubt. We have a night mess which is open till 4 am in the morning and if one enters it around 2 am you will not believe that there will be so many people doing various activities at such a time. Friends enjoying among themselves, couples having a loving chat, toppers studying studiously while drinking a cup of coffee etc. That sight at 2am gives you a boost which is necessary for such a hectic schedule which is present here. Then comes the academic part. Needless to say IIM Indore has one of the best faculty with years of experience behind them. The best thing about the professors here is that they facilitate class participation which is very important because it helps to develop our communication as well as listening skills which are one of the most important traits an MBA professional should possess. Overall the experience that you will gain from two years of life at Planet-I will not only prepare you for the strenuous corporate life but will also give you memories that you will cherish for years to come.
Which ABG company I will like to work on?
I would like to work for Aditya Birla Retail Limited. After one year of MBA I have realized that marketing is the field which I would choose and in marketing, I like the concept of retailing and I am genuinely intrigued by it. When I see supermarket chains selling products for much lower prices I would like to know how they manage to do that and I would like to do work in that field and try my best to improve the processes which take place there
