Indian school of business- Best B School in India- Year of transformation.
Placements: Overall really good placements. More than half of the people actually get placed 3-4 months before the course completion. The other half also gets placed in next 1-2 months before the graduation. The highest median package in india, and only a few of the colleges where MBB visits campus.
Infrastructure: Best infrastructure in whole of Asia. If you are looking for a quality education with all the amenities taken care of without any hassle and 24hr support crew helping you right from your room cleaning to laundry to internet. Really friendly staff and housekeeping team. Classrooms are international level, maybe better than some of the other reputed international universities. Rooms are like apartment buildings, fully furnished and clean.
Faculty: This is the best thing about ISB. Most of the faculty here is visiting faculty from wharton, Kellogg, Harward, UNC and other top notch international universities. So you get the best of the world facility teaching you here in india, this is the key differentiate for ISB. Moreover most of the faculty here is easily accessible both on perosn as well on email. Additionally the number of research papers each faculty here writes every year are more than the combined research papers of all iims. (Not sure though, but have heard this from alot of professors).
Other: There are multiple events happening on campus both on the professional front and social front. Alums are super nice and helpful and there are bunch of scholarships that you can explore on the isb website to make the programme a little lighter on your pocket.

ISB will definitely be one of the best & unforgettable years of your life.
Placements: Placements are usually 100% guaranteed at ISB unless you need a very niche sector. Even for that, ISB provides their best support in reaching out to industry experts to ensure all their students get placed. ISB takes into account the companies preference from the students before placements begin so they can plan the company outreach for the year accordingly. The average salary package in our year was 18 lacs p.a. but it usually varies depending on the number of years of experience. People with 8+ years of experience are a part of sr. exec club to get different kind of roles and packages.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is absolutely world-class at ISB. I was in the Mohali campus and we had everything from centrally heated rooms to fully equipped gyms with a brilliant trainer. It was like living in a resort. There's housekeeping that takes care of room/quad cleanliness, high-speed Wi-Fi enabled all over the campus, lounge room for screening movies, round the clock laundry, great & reasonable canteen, arts facilities - music, dance, art rooms, on-campus grocery store, postal service, and anything one would really need. Amongst the sports facilities there are - basketball, badminton, squash, volleyball courts, football field, TT, fooseball, snooker, tables, swimming pool, etc.
Faculty: Yet again - world class. We got professors who had written our books to teach us from MIT, Wharton, NYU, Imperial College, etc. So by qualification & knowledge, they were beyond imagination. But what the best part was that they were just like one of us - extremely chilled out and some of them would even come to shake a leg at our parties or join poker games. The course curriculum was more case-based so it was practical knowledge learned in classrooms getting applied to real life situations on a daily basis.

My impression of Indian School of Business.
Placements: Placements were good as expected with about 85% students placed by mid Jan. Companies that visited were all the consulting firms (BCG, McKinsey, Accenture, Deloitte, A.T. Kearney). Many companies from real estate, FMCG, healthcare and e-commerce such as Amazon, Flipkart. The average salary was about 21 lpa. No stipends as ISB does not have an internship in its course structure. All students were placed.
Infrastructure: Best in industry infrastructure with library equipped with all the tools and databases required for research. Faculty members who are pioneers in their fields come and teach and expose students to the latest research. Sports facilities and accommodation are the best. 24 hours in-house housekeeping that keep your room clean. Electricity and water are also 24 hours. Swimming pool, tennis courts, indoor basketball court, gym, football ground, pool room, badminton courts, squash courts, table tennis are the sports amenities available.
Faculty: The faculty is the best. Classes are highly engaging with a focus on latest research. The course is heavy and is a struggle as course load is high considering it is a 1-year course. They are approachable always both in person and digitally. However, as they come for a month and a half, they are only around for a short time on campus.

ISB - a cut above great peer group.
Placements: The placements at ISB are good as compared to other business schools. Typically, the placement season starts from the mid of the course and extend well after the completion of course. The students get variety of companies and jobs to choose from. The competition is tough as every student is super intelligent.
Infrastructure: Fantastic infrastructure is provided at both the campuses. The housekeeping is done by the professional agencies and the facilities are better than some of the international universities I have seen. Free hi speed internet, great library for resources and great facilities for sports are provided by the college.
Faculty: It has the best faculty members you will find in India. The in house teachers are experts and do research heavily. ISB faculty members are the best in India in terms of research.
Other: The placements are great and the school makes sure that the students from every stream gets fair chance. When you go there, please go with an open mind to learn and not only to get high paying job. This one year can change your life and get you in a very resourceful and an elite alumni club.
