Expect teachers, everything is good.

Placements: Internship is included in the college syllabus. Companies like Reliance Industries, and Pepsi Co., key learning offers summer internships. PWC, Deloitte, TCS, Morgan Stanley, and S&P Global, these companies offer full-time jobs. The average package is 4-5 lacs, the highest is 18 lacs and the lowest is 3 lacs. The placement percentage is 60-70%, and many different roles are offered, most of them for associates.

Infrastructure: The campus is situated in the industrial hub Gurgaon. The College building looks like a monument. On special occasions, it is decorated with lighting. The institute has all modern facilities including Wi-Fi service, labs are clean and maintained. I like the library it is a very quiet place, we can take books and study in the reading room. Yes college has hostel facility but I lived in PG which is near to college. I have some bad reviews about the college food, it is not eatable. First aid kits, and fire extinguishers are everywhere in college for safety.

Faculty: I do not like the teachers here, they are arrogant, strict, self-obsessed, and support their favourite students. Teachers do not come on time and do not follow the lecture schedule. They explain concepts using PPT and cover the syllabus that's it. The course syllabus is good it covers all aspects of management. It fully transforms students. It developed communication, appearance, behaviour, and personality. The semester has many exams and they are end term, mid sem, class tests, viva, moral, and practical exams. But anyone with a good understanding can easily pass exams.

Other: I recommend this college and course this is one of the best colleges offering this course.

Nice college with all facilities.

Faculty: Teachers are good. They help you, and they don't even be absent like the other colleges. You can come to their cabins to clear up your doubts and stuff. Teachers are kind of strict about attendance, but in the system, you can't blame them. Like us, they too have to punch their entry in time. Semester exams are about average; they are neither too difficult nor too easy. And you don't have to get a year back if you fail in 3 subjects or get less than a 3 SGPA; you have to enroll in the summer semester or go for the back exam.

Q: What percentile should I score in CAT exam to get MDI Gurgaon under defence quota?

Going by my own experience and of others who have a similar profile as yours, you can expect a call from MDI at about 96.5 -97 percentile.
