How many aspirants would be applying for the IPM test of IIM Rohtak (approx)? How tough would it be to get into it?
Back in 2018, 15500 students applied for the IPM exam but this has nothing to do with the difficulty level of the exam.

How good is doing FPM in IIM-Rohtak? What are the the future prospects? Is there any scope to work for MNCs after doing this course?
If you are considering pursuing a doctoral program at IIM Rohtak, it is important to have an understanding of the academic and administrative systems in place. While one individual may have had negative experiences, it is important to do your own research and weigh the pros and cons before making a decision.
Here are some points to consider:
- The academic and administrative systems at IIM Rohtak are designed to benefit one person with political backing. Raising concerns can result in termination threats or other forms of harassment. While this is concerning, it is important to remember that this is one person's experience and may not reflect the experiences of all Ph.D. students at the institution.
- It is important to thoroughly research the program you are interested in, including the curriculum, faculty, and support systems in place for students. Look up reviews and rankings, and reach out to current students or alumni to get their perspectives.
- Keep in mind that pursuing a doctoral degree can be a challenging and demanding experience, regardless of the institution. It requires dedication, hard work, and the ability to work independently.
- However, earning a Ph.D. from IIM Rohtak can open up a range of career opportunities. You can become a researcher or an academician. You may also be able to pursue careers in consulting, management, or other fields that value advanced research skills and knowledge.
Ultimately, the decision to pursue a Ph.D. at IIM Rohtak is a personal one that should be made based on your goals, interests, and research. Do your due diligence, weigh the pros and cons, and make an informed decision that feels right for you.
Which certification course is the best for project management, IIM Rohtak or Six Sigma Green Belt from Indian Statistical Institute?
Both the certification courses PMP and SSGB fall under the Operations domain yet are very different in reality.
PMP: This course facilitates handling and delivering projects efficiently and quickly. If you are interested in Project Management, the best option is the Project Management Professional (PMP) certification which is affiliated with Project Management Institute, PMI, USA. It
also provides PDUs.
SSBM: This course facilitates proper optimization of business processes, minimizing waste and time wastage. If you are interested in the Six Sigma Green Belt (SSGB), then Indian Statistical Institute (ISI) Kolkata is the best option available. Some even think ISI Pune is good yet I will recommend you to go for Kolkata itself.
How do companies perceive these IIM Rohtak EPGPX courses like?
Even though all IIMs have converted their PGP and EPGP programs into MBA degrees, IIM Rohtak continues to offer Post Graduate Diplomas. Companies do not regard this program as an MBA qualification. It is regarded as a Diploma course from IIM Rohtak, a step down from the two-year EPGP or PGP. Candidates who complete this course are not eligible to pursue a Ph.D., FPM (or even EFPM) from any IIM (including IIM Rohtak).
Fees for a one-year online program are also extremely high. All IIM MBA programs are now GST-free, but IIM Rohtak continues to charge fees that are "inclusive of taxes" even though there aren't any (if the course is truly an EPGP/PGP). Businesses would place a higher value on two-year PGP or EPGP programs, like the one offered by IIM Kozhikode.
Got a call from IIM-Rohtak, so should I presume I'll get calls from all new IIMs? Also, what are my chances converting it?
Yes, there is high chance that you will be getting calls from most of the newer IIMs if not all. However, based on your profile it won’t be easy to get into an IIM. You might have to work extra hard for your PI round.
Prepare for the interview by availing of some professional help. The competitions for IIMs are tough and should not be underestimated. One excellent way to prepare for your interview is going through interview experiences on Pagal Guy. It provides elaborate interview experiences of converted calls. You may also join the mentorship program at new IIMs.
Which would be better? NMIMS Mumbai BBA or IIM Rohtak IPM (exit after 3rd year with a BBA degree)?
IIM Rohtak is better if you want to join IPM there and graduate with a BBA after three years.
A BBA from IIM Rohtak is unquestionably more valuable than a BBA from NMIMS, Mumbai because the course curriculum and pedagogy are superior at IIMs, which use a trimester system rather than the traditional semester system used at NMIMS.
The placements will be similar between the two. However, NMIMS wins because, with only a BBA, you'd have to apply off-campus if you wanted to be placed at IIM Rohtak, as there are no placements for BBA students.
Keeping everything in mind, you should prioritize IIM Rohtak over NMIMS because of the IIM brand and because it is a less expensive option. At the end of the day, you still have the option of pursuing an MBA at IIM Rohtak, which you do not have at NMIMS, and CAT can be quite unpredictable and difficult.
How is the Post Graduate Program In Management (ePGPx) with IIM Rohtak?
- The minimum number of years in business school is ten. ISB Hyderabad is an exception because they have only focused on the PGPX format of the program since its inception.
- A very strong alum base thus supports placements because placements in these programs are typically lateral in nature.
- A very strong faculty base with international or very rich corporate exposure to support the program.
- A rich and varied corporate immersion program to aid in the successful integration of the program's participants and sponsors (SP JAIN does well here).
- Then, to top it all off, a robust infrastructure.
What's your take on the withdrawal of IIM Rohtak from CAP?
I think it is a good tactical decision for IIM Rohtak to improve its worth and image among the second-generation IIMs.
Despite being younger than IIM Shillong it is considered among the second-generation IIMs because it has been a part of CAP. If you look at the current situation, IIM Shillong functions from a temporary campus and yet has its own WAT-PI process. On the other hand, IIM Rohtak has its own permanent campus but lacks its own WAT-PI process. Now its withdrawal from CAP will enable it to stand out from the second-generation IIMs.
From the student's perspective, this strategy has increased their chances of getting selected as now if they fail to perform well in CAP, they can rely on Rohtak's own WAT-PI process and vice-versa.
How is the IPM of IIM Rohtak? Do you find it on par with IPM IIM Indore?
Comparing IIM Indore’s program to IIM Rohtak, there is a simple conclusion- IIM Indore is better than IIM Rohtak in almost every aspect.
Similarly, IIM Indore's IPM course is better in every case scenario. This is because of
- Older campus
- Better faculty
- Better connectivity with the industry
- Better global image
- The credibility of the course is far better
- Better Alumni network
- Better competition
- Stronger brand name
- Better location
- Better placements
These are some parameters on which IIM Indore has an upper hand over IIM Rohtak. Also IIM Rohtak overall has lost its rankings over the past few years due to various controversies. So it’s best you don’t risk your career and go for IIM Indore instead.
What should I choose, IIM Rohtak IPM or IIT?
Firstly both the institutes IIM Rohtak and IIT offer 2 courses in 2 different fields namely Management and Engineering. So the first thing you need to do is find your interest and then choose the college. In case you are interested in both, I will suggest you go for IIT because
- The first and foremost reason for joining IIT is that you can still pursue MBA after engineering but not the other way around.
- The program is relatively new and lacks credibility.
- The fees is extremely high
- The recent controversies at IIM Rohtak regarding IPMAT have ruined its reputation as an IIM.
- There are many B Schools both IIM and Non-IIM that are better than Rohtak. So I will suggest you go for them.
- It’s the PGP course of IIM that enjoys the most credibility owing to its strong alumni base. The IPM program lacks in this aspect a lot.
IIM Rohtak has very few graduates in the market because of its new establishment. Because of this, it lacks in many aspects so I won’t suggest you risk your career by choosing it.
