On Fees and Eligibility
Q:   Can an average student get into an IIM?
A: 

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 honest review about my college.
Placements: More than 90% of the students are offered internships at our college. I am currently pursuing my summer marketing internship at ElasticRun. Placements are very good for our batch and seniors as well. Almost 100% of the students got placed in our college. All the major MNCs and technical firms along with a string of FMCG companies visited our campus for placements. Campus placement is good as many companies come up with different roles for the batch.
Infrastructure: There is no hostel at the college as they are under construction. Canteen food is very cheap and hygienic. The overall fee is also very less and affordable for every section of society.
Faculty: All faculty members at the college are Ph.D. holders. We are being taught by some of the best faculty members here at IIM Sambalpur. We have Mr Prakash Banerjee sir to teach marketing subjects, and we have BBC sir to teach finance subjects. Some teachers have experience of more than 20 years. They also explain multiple real-life problems and guide us on how to formulate strategies in different situations. It's a very old college with very good teaching faculty, and it comes under Delhi University, which is India's number 1 ranked university. Course curriculum is a bit loose but the gaps are matched via the interaction with other department students Faculty members of course are the best-rated ones be it the dean sir or other visiting faculty members.

Review of Indian institute of technology, Sambalpur.
Placements: Placement in-charge gives newer ideas, helps us in searching for the same, it is helpful for many students to start their new ventures in various fields. And a few of us recommend joining master's courses to get deeper knowledge. So placement succession rates are also above 82%.
Infrastructure: The wide campus gave life to thousands of students for a year. As students from various colleges got the centers for writing their semester examinations in our college. So our college has so many facilities to handle all those things. Even to take online exams, there are enormous facilities in our college.
Faculty: I'm so lucky to get teachers like this, they would show special attention, training to the below-average students. Most importantly, teachers have wide connectivity with various industries and organizations. Also, they are so questioning even for small things.

IIM Sambalpur: Odisha's Institute of National importance.
Placements: The placement is as per the industry standards, considering the grim market it is decent but can be better as the conditions are up. The top recruiting firms are ICICI, Asian Paints, Accenture, Adani, and many more. 85% of the batch of 2024-26 is placed for summer internships, and the final leg is ongoing. The highest package is Rs. 90,000 per month.
Infrastructure: Classrooms are high-tech-enabled and have 80-90 capacity. The infrastructure, like the library, academic block, sports complex, open-air theater, and auditorium, is all immensely well-maintained and good. The hostels are good and can be maintained more and the mess food is decent hence there is room for improvement.
Faculty: Course curriculum is hectic, but faculty members are great, hence, there is a lot of learning in the two years of MBA. There are 6 terms in total, and each term is 3 months long and has two written examinations mid-term and end-term. The constant grooming ensures the students are industry-ready.
Other: There are a plethora of clubs and committees that provide holistic growth to students. The annual fest, Ethos, is a spectacle.

Learning Experience: Learning platforms are accessible by us in both the sources such as online and offline.Sometimes teachers won't cover the whole syllabus due to insufficient time period.
Placements: Placement features are so good,like required setup for taking tests for placements were readily available for all the Students facing placements.As very minimal package offered by the recruiting companies would be 3.2 lakhs for a year.Placement trainings are highly hectic to handle sometimes.
Faculty: Records,assignments and other home work should be submitted in given time schedule.Because teachers put marks for internals based on such works.Teachers have moderate level of experience in teaching,but few of them were experienced more than 10 years in the field of teaching.
Course Support: Courses contains all the syllabus required for professional trainings,and this course would be specially designed for our disciplines.Eventhough it was an heavier syllabus teachers made it simpler by their own styles.
