Admission: The professors are always there to help out when you need them. They bring in outside experts to talk about what's happening in the industry. You've gotta go to these classes, even if you don't get everything, 'cause attendance counts.
Placement: Competition for placements is tough, but the top companies always pick the best students. Seniors had a great placement week. The internship placement week showed us how to deal with rejection, pressure, stress, and emotions.
Campus: The campus is growing, but some facilities need improvement. The sports, library, medical, and fitness areas are clean and taken care of, but they lack the necessary equipment. The food in the canteen is so bad that you only eat to survive.

Admission: The teachers here are really smart and know their stuff. They help us a lot with our questions. The visiting teachers are awesome too. The college brings in top teachers. There are a lot of students for each teacher. We get to learn a lot about the industry through guest sessions, seminars, and summer internships. The classes are set up really well.
Placement: Our senior batch had awesome placements. Companies like JP Morgan, ITC, and Godrej came to hire us. They offered good roles like management trainee and project management. The average salary was around 6-8 LPA. Most students got internships, like 90%. The placement cell in college really helps out a lot!
Campus: The college has good infrastructure with everything you need like Wi-Fi, library, big ground, labs, and more. The labs and classrooms are nice. The food in the mess is decent, and they keep it clean. The hostel rooms are big, clean, and have what you need. I haven't had any problems with the infrastructure so far.

Admission: The faculty at our college knows their stuff, which is great. The course content is spot-on, and the whole experience is worth it. It's hard to tell if choosing this college was the right move sometimes, but overall it's up there with the best MBA schools. Seniors and mentors are super helpful, not just the teachers. I like the way they teach with case studies.
Placement: Most students in our course got placed, which is great. The highest salary offered was 38.9 LPA, and the average was 15 LPA. Lots of big companies like Amazon, GCPL, ColPal, and others come for placements. Over 65 companies hired students from our college. So, most students end up with good jobs. The college really helps us get quality placements.
Campus: The college has top-notch facilities and really big classrooms. Everything you need is there, but the hostel rooms aren't great. Still, they have all the stuff you need. The campus is super big and it's a great place to study. The classrooms have all the cool tech stuff you need to learn.

Admission: The course is really thorough and it can get pretty busy. But it's super useful for Industrial Management because it covers everything from handling projects to dealing with money, managing risks, contracts, bids, and overseeing work sites.
Placement: The MBA-IM course has great placements for students last year, with companies like Feedback Birsa, ABPS Infrastructure, IG Petrochemicals, and more hiring. Also, regular recruiters like Capgemini and Genpact are there every year. Roles offered are in analysis, sales, and marketing. In the 2016-18 batch, students got internships at places like The World Bank, PwC, and National Innovation Foundation. Lots of opportunities for everyone!
Campus: The school's education setup is good, but the Wi-Fi could use some work. The food, campus life, and housing could definitely be better. It feels more like a boarding school than a business school. We study late at night, so it would be great to have a night canteen with simple food like noodles and coffee.

Admission: The teachers here all have PhDs, and they're always around to help with any questions. They teach in classrooms and labs. We haven't had any real-world experience yet, but what we're learning is really good for management.
Placement: I was happy with the placements at our college. Over 60% of seniors and 90% of juniors got placed. Companies like Godrej, ITC, and DBS came to campus. They offered different roles from analyst to manager. The placement team really helped us out.
Campus: The library and medical facilities here are pretty good. We have two reading rooms with Wi-Fi, but the quality is just okay. The food in the mess is not bad. Sometimes there were small problems with the infrastructure, but the management fixed them quickly and well.

Admission: The teachers here have a lot of experience, and some of them even work in companies. Every week, they bring in industry experts to talk about how things are changing in the business world. They really emphasize hands-on learning by having us do research and projects.
Placement: Around 85% of final-year students get placed which is pretty good. The college is great for improving your skills, and the placement cell takes care of the rest. If you work hard, you can land some awesome internships in the corporate world. Many students get internships, and some even have connections that help them get in touch with companies.
Campus: The college has good infrastructure that's well-kept. They do renovations every year and provide all the facilities we need. The canteen serves fresh food, and we have sports equipment on campus. The hostels are clean, and the warden takes good care of them. The mess serves tasty food, especially for breakfast.

Admission: The teachers here are really good. It's up to us students to make the most of their knowledge. But, I gotta say, the course structure is kinda old-fashioned. We need something more modern and engaging. Like, something that really challenges us and gets us involved.
Placement: The top companies that come for placements are Godrej, HUL, ITC, EY, KPMG, PWC, Delloite, HSBC, Aditya Birla group, and Reliance. However, placements can be a bit tricky because it depends on the company's own list of students they want to hire. If you don't network or collaborate with others, it can be tough to get selected.
Campus: The college has Wi-Fi in classrooms, a good library, and clean hostel rooms with LAN connection. The food and mess facility could be better, and the medical facility needs improvement. There are good sports activities available. The campus area is a bit small but has everything you need like a juice shop, Xerox center, daily needs shop, canteen, and "urban karta" food counter.

Admission: SCMHRD has a cool vibe with a focus on students. The classes are interesting and connected to real-world stuff thanks to alumni and industry experts. The teachers are awesome, approachable, and super supportive. We cover 17 topics in the first semester and 18 in the second. Each topic has quizzes, presentations, and exams. It's a mix of case studies, quizzes, and exams to keep things interesting.
Placement: The placements for our batch and the one before us were awesome! Our senior batch (Batch 17-19) had a 100% placement rate, with 73 students (32%) getting a PPO from their summer internship. The Placement cell works really hard and gets the job done. A total of 93 companies came to our campus. The highest Domestic CTC was 38.5 Lacs, and the average and median packages were 15.6 and 14.1 Lacs. We had big companies like Google, Amazon, HUL, and more visiting for placements. The highest summer package was 3.20 Lacs, with average and median packages at 1.48 and 1.30 Lacs.
Campus: The campus is really green and peaceful. There's a big auditorium for 350 people and two other rooms for 150 people each. Wi-Fi is on every floor. We have a Bloomberg lab and Euromonitor access. The library is open from 9 to 9, but the reading room is open 24/7. There's a clinic on campus and doctors can come to the hostel too. The food in the mess is okay, but you can find other places to eat nearby. There's a sports area for cricket, football, volleyball, and more between the academic block and the hostel. It's a nice place to hang out and play games with friends.

Admission: The visiting professors are awesome here. The admin always brings in top-notch faculty. They update the curriculum every year. It's kinda hard to tell if continuous evaluation really happens. There are lots of competitions on campus, which is cool. The alumni have achieved some great things.
Placement: The job placements for the seniors were way better than ours. It shows that how many jobs are available. Around 90% of us found internships through the college. To get a good job, you should aim to be better than average.
Campus: The college has everything you need. The campus is really nice and there are so many dogs around. At first, it might feel small if you're used to bigger colleges like IITs or NITs, but it's actually just right. The food in the mess is okay, but they try to keep it healthy.
