Indian School of Business Hyderabad Gachibowli Answered Questions

Hello Sameer,
1. The PGP at ISB is their flagship program.
2. The class size at IIM - A PGPX is too small to deliver comprehensive peer-learning. With the average class work-experience at IIMs being 8-9 years, there are very few participants from the new-age startups, which limits the scope to learn from fellow participants. ISB, in contrast has participants with 2 years to 20 years of work-experience, offering stronger exposure and industry connect.
3. With a larger student base (800+), ISB is able to invite more number of companies (200+) on campus for recruitment, whereas IIMs cannot invite too many companies because of the low class strength.
4. Alumni Base: IIMA PGPX has an alumni base of just about 850, whereas ISB has an alumni base about 10 times this number.

You should aim to get into the top 3 institutions of Pune for a better ROI.
1. SIMB.
2. PUMBA.
3. BIMM, should be your first priorities.
ISB&M is also decent, where your total cost for 2 years may rise up to Rs.11 lakhs and you may expect an average CTC of Rs.5 LPA to Rs.6 LPA.
