Can an average student get into an IIM?

The answer to this question of whether an average student can get into IIM can be both yes and no depending on the definition of an average student. Based on Academics (Class 10/ Class 12/ Graduation): While a student with average scores in Class 10, Class 12 and graduation with a good CAT score certainly has good chances of getting a call from IIM-A, chances are less for someone with an average CAT score. Based on student category (General or Reserved): While it is tough for a General category average student to grab a seat at IIM due to high score requirements, a reserved category student can get admission being at average scores as well. Based on past work experience, diversity and other factors: Gender and academic diversity is also a factor on which students are shortlisted at IIM. IIMs judge the past academic category based on the degree obtained by the students before MBA and then a weightage is allotted based on that. For Engineers, the percentage for scoring the highest marks is higher as compared with other streams Performance in selection rounds: Once you make it to the final selection rounds, i.e., AWT/PI process, it can be considered a fresh start. At this stage, students can forget their past average-ness but definitely require good grasp over the past subjects as academics-related questions are asked in the interview. Based on the above factors, it can be considered that while getting into top Management institutes, such as IIM is extremely tough, the past performance, CAT performance, student category and a lot of factors can be the reasons for a student to receive that final call.

My review about this college.

Placements: Internships are a very vital ingredients of IIM-C life. These internships are to be taken in the passage between first year-end and second-year start. The B-school records 100% summer internship placement with reasonable pay. Summer placements happen in October and final placements happen in March. The average compensation is around Rs 28 LPA. All students are placed in firms like Goldman Sachs, Lehman Brothers, ITC, HUL, Microsoft, Infosys, ICICI, Wipro, Satyam, Cognizant, Bank of America, Indus Valley Partners, Marico, Dabur, British Gas, Temasek Holding, and many more.

Infrastructure: Faculty members put their best foot forward to ensure a great classroom learning experience for all. The institute provides accommodation facilities. Hostel fees are not included in the total fees of Rs 21,00,000. There are commonly changing rooms and games rooms where students can chill and gossip. With co-ed hostels also in place, it is more fun chilling and cracking jokes. The surroundings are amazing, and we used to celebrate even the festivals in the hostel.

Faculty: Faculty members at IIM Calcutta are top-notch. They also have very huge research works, papers, and experiences that are world-class. Most of them have graduated from the esteemed business schools of India. The finance, operations, and organizational behavior professors are best in India. All the courses in the first 2 semesters are related to the basic understanding of the business ecosystem. Basics of marketing, finance, organizational behavior, and political history of India are covered initially. Later in the second year, we can choose our own subjects and major in any division. IIMC has a faculty to student ratio of around 1:7 which is slightly lower as compared to its counterparts but nonetheless.

Placements were excellent in 2019 batch.

Placements: Placements are fine. 90% of students were placed. Median annual salary offered was somewhere around 16-17 LPA. For this programme, placement is a bit challenging but we saw great placement score in 2018-19 batch. IT and consulting were some of the areas where roles were offered. It's mandatory to do an internship with this programme. Internship interviews will also be conducted by the institute. Internship stipend ranges from 25K to 50K.

Infrastructure: The college has a great library and facilities. Students also enjoy paid subscription of some magazines. Sports facilities here are average. It is an old b-school and space allotted for games and sports is less. College has its own sports club and many talented students also. There are various clubs in this college. Hostels are decent, although the infrastructure is pretty old, but you still get AC facility. Other facilities in the hostel are also fine.

Faculty: Senior faculty members are very nice. Although some are very strict, but that is not much of an issue most of the time. You will learn a lot from all of them. They put a lot of effort in teaching. They are well experienced and give a lot of assignments to study upon. Course is very hectic. 2 years of studies is squeezed into some 4 months of studies.

Faculty: The faculty here are gods, to be honest. Each and every one of them has the ability to solve any doubt from anything analytics. Very humble and knowledgeable (especially ISI). You'll get a whole semester (6 months) for graded-Internship (also paid). I think that's more than enough to make you industry ready, it makes you Start-UP-ready. Also, each and every one of your peers would be highly accomplished him/herself, so a lot to learn from peer-to-peer. The course gets updated regularly in line with the latest technology, theory, etc. In the Analytics domain (both Industry and Academics).

Other: This is one of the first courses in business analytics to be offered in our nation and quickly climbed up the rankings. With all three pioneers, I don't think there is any course better than this even presently. Our semesters were shortened and that made the course very intensive and rigorous. But again it was due to Covid and I don't see it getting repeated in the future. Lots of events and fests are organized here (right now on hold due to Covid). The campus crowd is as expected from Premium institutes, everyone is well accomplished. Scholarships are given to EWS folks.
