IIM Shillong College Review.

Faculty: Faculty members were friendly, and they really helped students tackle the tough parts of the material. They encourage questions and try to clear up any confusion, so students can eventually step into the professional world with confidence. The pass rate was just over 50%, and a lot of that stems from students not being fully engaged. Teachers remain supportive through it all.

Hard Reality of IIM Shillong 1 year course.

Faculty: All teachers and study materials used were too old, not new technologies used for teaching. Even study materials need to be updated to keep students upto date from the changing market conditions. No it doesn't make the student industry ready, that's why still students are struggling to get job. Semester exams are too easy to clear.

Satisfied with the life at IIM Shillong.

Faculty: Some of the teachers are very helpful and highly qualified, but that can not be said about the majority. Many faculty members are unable to grasp the attention of students. Minimum of 85% attendance is mandatory in each subject. Each subject has 20 sessions and there are 7-8 subjects taught in a trimester. The 1st year's curriculum can be a bit improvised .

Good place and B-School to spend your 2 years.

Faculty: Each subject had 20 sessions, each session of 1.5 hrs. The teachers were helpful and well qualified. Most of the faculty members gave pre-reads and regular assignments. But not all the faculty members were able to keep the class engaged. There were only few faculty members which were able to impart relevant knowledge in the stipulated time. The second year allows us to opt for electives of our choice. The curriculum is relevant and makes the students industry ready.
