Admission: I really like the IPM program. We cover a lot of different topics. Most teachers are cool, but the ethics teacher is a bit funny. He gave the same questions from last year's tests and then failed the students who told on him. There are a few other not-so-great teachers, but most of them are pretty good. The exams can be tough sometimes, but they're usually fair. The grading system is kind of okay.
Placement: In the final placements for AY 2023-24, all students got placed, which was awesome. But some top companies didn't hire many students. IIM Indore had better placements than other IIMs like Lucknow and FMS. Not sure about the exact numbers, but someone got over 1 crore from a company with ESOPs. Most placements were around 30L or more, with the lowest being less than 12-13L. For IPMers, some companies didn't hire, but the ones that did liked us. Top recruiters were BCG, AT Kearney for Consulting; JPMC, DE Shaw for Finance; HUL, Asian Paints for Marketing. In my 4th year, I don't have the latest info because internships and placements are different. In Summer Internship AY 2023-24, almost everyone got internships through campus. Some students found better opportunities on their own. Top roles for IPMers were BCG, ATK for consulting; JPMC, DE Shaw for finance; HUL, PepsiCo for marketing. Some struggled to find internships and ended up in startups with a 30K stipend.
Campus: Wi-Fi is good with a backup line, but storage is limited and causes problems. We get only 20GB of space for the course, which is too little. Classrooms are good, but with more students joining, they are getting crowded. The library's online database is good, but they could improve seating, books, and overall look compared to other colleges like IIM-A or Amity Noida. Sports facilities are bad - just an outdoor badminton court and a cricket ground that needs maintenance. Medical care is okay, but most doctors seem uninterested, except for Anjali Ma'am. The mess is decent, but they can do better with nutrition and cooking methods. The taste is not great, like most college messes.

Admission: The teachers here know their stuff really well. They teach the important subjects really well. The stuff we learn gets us ready for the job world. Exams here are tough but fair. They grade on a curve, so not many people get low grades. It's a busy college, but you learn a lot.
Placement: Almost everyone in our course got a job after graduating. The highest salary offered was 1 crore per year, with an average of around 24-25 LPA. Big companies like BCG, Black Rock, and TCS hire a lot of students from here. A bunch of us also got internships. Most of the job roles are in management.
Campus: The campus has good facilities. The classrooms are clean and tidy. Hostels don't have ACs, but the food in the mess is tasty. They even serve breakfast. Medical help is available, and you can call for an ambulance. The canteen is big and nice.

Admission: The course curriculum is awesome but super busy. The teachers are really helpful and supportive. I wanted to study management, so I picked a top B-school. After about 2 weeks on campus, I realized life here is tough and busy. But this journey is what helps us become great managers. I'm not familiar with all the teachers yet, but I can say there are some really smart ones who are always ready to help. We learn a lot through case studies, exams, assignments, projects, and presentations. Exams happen regularly, and passing isn't too hard, but it does get stressful.
Placement: Placements at IIM Indore are top-notch! Big companies like BCG, EY, and TATA come every year offering great salaries. In the third term, we can apply for placements. This year, the average package is around 26 LPA, with a median of 24-25 LPA. Everyone got placed, and some even got Pre-Placement Offers during their internships. The SIP program provides awesome internship opportunities with high stipends ranging from 50k/month to 2.5-3 Lakhs. I can't wait to start my SIP and be a part of it all!
Campus: The hostels at IIM Indore are awesome! The rooms are cool with AC and nice furniture like a wardrobe and study table. The food is good, and they have fast Wi-Fi and laundry. Safety is top-notch with security and CCTV. It's a great place to make friends and feel at home. Living here makes studying and enjoying college life easy.

Admission: The teachers here really know their stuff. They're great at teaching. The IPM course is super important for growing all around. It's like a warm-up for MBA, so you'll be ahead of the game later on. The course is okay, nothing too special.
Placement: The five-year program at IIM Indore is great. It combines BA and MBA to train leaders who care about society. They offer a variety of courses like math, sociology, and drama for a well-rounded education. It's awesome!
Campus: The college has good infrastructure with Wi-Fi everywhere. Each hostel has a washing machine and there's a badminton court. They also have a gym and swimming pool which is cool. The furniture and bathrooms are nice too. Overall, it's a pretty decent setup.

Admission: The teachers here are super smart and always doing research. They're cool with different student backgrounds. We learn all kinds of stuff like Stats, Calc, and even Philosophy. The last 2 years get us ready for work with cool case studies. Exams come super often 'cause of the trimester system like every 4 days! Grading is tough 'cause it's all about how you compare to others. But hey, most of us pass with about a 90% rate after 3 years.
Placement: I checked out the combined placements data for IPM and PGP (MBA). All students from the 2020-22 batch got placed. The highest package was 49 LPA, median was 25.01 LPA, and average was 24.09 LPA. The top companies were: 1) Consulting - BCG, Deloitte, Brain and Company, KPMG, Accenture 2) Finance - Barclays, Goldman Sachs, HSBC, Morgan Stanley 3) Marketing and Sales - Aditya Birla, Asian Paints, Samsung 4) Operations and HR - Axis Bank, Capegemini, Mahindra, Reliance They didn't share the summer placement data. The roles offered were in consulting, finance, HR, sales and marketing, and general management and operations.
Campus: I really like the campus at IIM Indore. It's huge with lots of buildings and gardens. The classrooms are big and have all the tech stuff we need. The library is super peaceful and has free Wi-Fi. Hostels are okay, but the Wi-Fi is slow. The food in the mess is good, better than other places I've been. The canteen has good food too, but it's a bit pricey. The medical center is always open, which is reassuring. There are lots of sports to play, both indoor and outdoor. Overall, it's a nice place to study and live.

Admission: The teachers at IIM Indore are top-notch. They do more than just teach from textbooks. They also help with research and competitions. The subjects cover a lot of areas like economics, math, and social sciences. There's even a bit of law, accounting, and computer science thrown in. It makes sure we can talk about anything and have a good understanding of many topics. Each class has different ways to test us, like taking part, doing projects, and exams. The grading is tough, but it helps us learn from each other a lot.
Placement: This year has been tough for placements at college campuses, but at IIM Indore, students still got good opportunities. The placement cell kept supporting us till the end. For summer internships, IPM students mostly go into finance and sales. Companies like BCG and Kearney do come, but there aren't many options in consulting, operations, genman, and marketing. Some companies don't hire freshmen, which is normal for MBA colleges. But as the program gets more popular among alums, more companies are hiring IPM students. Don't worry about placements at IIM Indore - I recommend applying for the course.
Campus: The academic building has awesome facilities like AC classrooms and projectors. It's up on a hill, while the hostels for the first three years of IPM are down at the bottom. It's a real struggle for IPM students to climb that steep slope every day. The hostel rooms have good stuff like enough storage, comfy single beds, and shared bathrooms (one for eight students). But now they're making us share rooms with four people, so it's getting really cramped and needs a change. All rooms have Wi-Fi and LAN, but it's better to use an Airtel Sim for good network, other providers don't work well. The mess food is okay, but it gets boring fast and the quality goes up and down a lot. Luckily, there are other food options on campus from outside vendors. The extra stuff here is great too: two cool gyms, a big pool, volleyball, badminton, and basketball courts, and even a cricket stadium.

Placement: At our college, pretty much everyone lands a job after graduation. The highest salary you can get is around 60 lakhs per year. The lowest is 12 lakhs, and the average is 25 lakhs.
