Thankfully, I soon realized that while placements are important, there are numerous other aspects to b-school life, such as case competitions, event management, and networking (which often involves a fair share of parties!).” Read More

How do you rate IIML compared with the IIMs at ABC? Is IIM Lucknow as good as the top IIMs at ABC?

Admin

IIM Lucknow is a renowned business school. It has been around for quite a while now, so it has a strong alumni network and good placements. 

Here are a few parameters to assess IIM Lucknow and compare it to IIM A,B,C-

  • Brand- IIM A,B,C are the most renowned IIMs. But others like Lucknow are also quite reputable. The ‘IIM’ tag in itself holds a lot of prestige.
  • Recruiters- A handful of top recruiters visit only IIM A,B,C and leave the other top business schools. But the majority of such companies are investment banks who seek employees in the finance sector.
  • Peer group- Top achievers go to IIM A,B,C. However, it is unfair to neglect those who were of great caliber but fell short by a few points. 
  • Faculty- Teachers from IIM A,B,C come to IIM Lucknow from time to time as visiting faculty. 

IIM A,B,C will probably give you a better start, but your passion and dedication will ultimately lead you towards a successful career in corporate.

What is it like to study in IIM Lucknow?

Shekhar Suman
Anindya MittalIIIT Lucknow (2019)

IIM Lucknow is one of the most renowned business schools in the country. Studying at IIM Lucknow is a one-of-a-kind experience. You will find the library filled with books on different topics, and make many friends and endless memories on campus.

You will have the opportunity to learn from some of the best professors in the country. You can access numerous databases which only the biggest Indian companies can otherwise provide.

The highest package for placement (2021-2023) was 1 CPA and the average package was INR 32.23 LPA.

But the academic pressure might take a toll on you. There will be endless assignments, quizzes, and case competitions. The extensive preparation for the placement drive will cause a lot of stress.

Coming back to the positive side, IIM Lucknow makes sure that its students come from diverse academic backgrounds. The gender diversity on campus is good. You will thus get the chance to interact with India’s brightest minds from diverse academic backgrounds.

IIM Lucknow also has a beautiful campus (one of the best in India as a Business School). The sports block and various committees will help relieve all the stress from studies and the placement drive.

What is the USP of IIM Lucknow?

Tanuj ChandraPGDM from Indian Institute of Management Lucknow (Graduated 2018)

The curriculum that students will follow will be IIM Lucknow's USP.

The time spent on campus at IIM Lucknow, including academics, committees, extracurriculars, and, of course, friends and parties, is one of the most hectic periods a student can experience in the country. At IIML, you work six days a week and have projects, assignments, and exams on Sundays. So you have almost no weekends. It's the equivalent of working three months straight to earn seven days off (term break). The combination of summer heat and winter cold will give you goosebumps.

But, once again, this is what distinguishes the students. They are prepared to thrive and excel in even the most difficult environments.

What was the waitlist movement at IIM Lucknow last year?

Tanishk JalanPGP from Indian Institute of Management Lucknow (Graduated 2018)

Every year, the movement of the IIM waitlists causes a commotion among students who have applied for admission to the IIMs. There are approximately 4000 seats available across the 20 IIMs. Another group of chosen candidates is kept in line after the initial list of chosen candidates is released publicly in case any candidate decides not to take a seat. The waitlist movement in IIMs and a few top MBA schools varies by category. The general category is extremely stringent, whereas the SC, ST, OBC, and PwD categories have some leeway.

The waitlist is kept confidential at IIM Lucknow. The merit list is instead released to the public. To secure a spot on the merit list, a student must meet the minimum requirement of 12 out of 40 in the PI round.

Are the job profiles offered at MDI Gurgaon on par with IIMs like LIK, not ABC? How much effort does one have to put into his future to get on par with the IIM graduates if one graduate from there?

Aditi RajotiaStudied at Management Development Institute, Gurgaon

IIML is clearly superior to MDI in non-marketing specializations in terms of placement. However, IIM I, K, and MDI are generally equal in terms of placements, except for a few banks that specifically seek out the IIM tag at I&K. If you work equally hard at either campus and all other operational factors are constant, you will likely end up in a similar position whether you choose MDI or I or K. However, as mentioned before, IIML still has the edge and requires more effort if you're in the finance or consulting field.

If you're interested in MDI, it's worth noting that recent placement reports show more and more prestigious finance and consulting companies are visiting the campus. This has helped MDI deliver well-rounded placements. So, if you're willing to put in the work, MDI could be a good option for you.

What are the best one year full-time executive MBA courses in India? Can anyone who has done the IPMX course at IIM Lucknow share their experience?

Ankit SharmaPGPM from Indian Institute of Management Kashipur (Graduated 2018)

There are mainly 3 MBA programs in India:

  • Two Year Program in Management- Aimed at people with less than 2 years of experience
  • One Year Program in Management- Aimed at people with 2-15 years of experience
  • Part Time Program in Management- Aimed at working professionals

Before we dwell on the best one-year full-time executive MBA courses in India, let’s understand what exactly a one year program is. 

The 1-year-program gained fame in India after the success of ISB in the early 2000s. IIMs and other institutes initiated the same and have been offering the 1-year program since late 2000s. This program mainly offers high-quality education for experienced professionals. Some best programs offered in India are

  1. ISB- PGP (Post Graduate Program)
  2. IIM Ahmedabad- PGPX (Post Graduate Program for Executives)
  3. IIM Bangalore- EPGP (Executive Post Graduate Program)
  4. IIM Kolkata- PGPeX (Post Graduate Program for Executives)
  5. IIM Lucknow- IPMX (International Program in Management for Executives)

The admissions happen on the basis of GMAT, Essays, and Interviews. It is primarily meant for people with several years of experience but who want to upgrade their managerial skills.

The best part is that the 1-year-program is equivalent to an MBA internationally. Infact, major international rankings such as Financial Times consider the 1-year program. So the 1-year program at the top B-Schools in India will give you a similar experience academically.

As far as the IPMX course is concerned, it is not an Executive MBA.

How many students Drop out or fail in IIM Lucknow?

Taaruk RainaStudied at Indian Institute of Management Lucknow

The percentage of students who drop out or fail at IIM Lucknow differs significantly by batch.

There have been batches where only a few students dropped out and pursued another interest. At the same time, 10-15 students drop out of each batch because they have goals other than an MBA.

It is a personal factor that over time has an overall impact on the number of students discontinuing class. It says nothing about the institute and says nothing about the batch either. Failure is a matter of one's commitment to learning and education, and the number of students also depends on each student, so taken as a whole, it says nothing negative about the institution. In other words, failing or dropping out depends entirely on the individual and has nothing to do with the institution.

How much minimum CAT percentile do I need to get IIM Calcutta or IIM Lucknow if I have Xth 93, XIIth 73, and BTech 70, without any work experience?

Khushboo Shafi
Raktim Tarafdar

Your graduation score is a bit low but it depends on your institute too. If you are from a top college, then this score will be considered pretty good. Moreover, past academics are not the only deciding factor when it comes to admission to IIMs. You do have decent changes if selection viewing your overall profile. 

As for the CAT Score, don’t set a fixed target and just aim for as high as you can. The cutoffs keep changing depending on various factors so what should remain constant are your efforts. Additionally, preparing for the interview is very crucial because it determines your chances of admission.

Why are there so many negative answers regarding IIM Lucknow place-coms?

Sudeshna Bhar
Sanskar NigamIIM C-ISI K-IIT Kgp

It's not just IIM Lucknow; all college place-coms have the same image. Every student spends his or her entire college career hoping to be hired by their dream company. They have all worked extremely hard for many years in order to obtain that prestigious position.

You have the ability to place someone while in college. This is why place-comers are always getting these comments, especially from those who were unplaced, missed their dream placement, were placed in another company while a more preferred company was still hiring, are not on good terms with the place-comers, and so on.

Furthermore, Place-comers place people in one company before moving on to place the remainder in the next. They are responsible for placing everyone/or the majority of people. Nobody notices your efforts, and you only attract hostility. Some people try to become place-comers simply because they want to have the authority to place themselves or their friends.
