Q:   Is IIM Bangalore as good as IIM Ahmedabad?
A: 

IIM Ahmedabad is viewed as being superior to the one in Bengaluru, which is something distinctive that clearly stands out in many of these debates. And given how much the alumni network and brand value matter, IIM Ahmedabad should be the school of choice since it will provide you with more long-term advantages. This single point leads to the recommendation to select option A.

However, I really doubt that it should be given much weight in comparison or that this particular moment should stand alone as a turning point. Evidently, Ahmedabad was founded prior to Bangalore, and Bangalore began to prioritize privates after the mid-80s. Even so, it may give the more established Iims a tough fight. Currently, Ahmedabad continues to spend a colossal amount of money on branding and marketing. Following Ahmedabad, although considerably behind it, is IIM Bangalore. In comparison to IIM Ahmedabad, IIM Calcutta could be thought of as insignificant. The facebook page for IIM Ahmedabad, which has a large number of likes and engages in a lot of online advertising, is a good example of this. Consequently, it is able to preserve that impression. Also intriguingly, Ahmedabad is ranked higher than Bangalore in terms of academic and employer perception in the QS rankings for the MIM category (where the flagship PGP in Management is taken into account). However, because to Bangalore's superior scores in all other categories, Bangalore outranks Ahmedabad in the overall rankings.

Q:   Is IIM Bangalore more affordable than other MBA colleges in Bangalore?
A: 

IIM Bangalore is one of the top IIMs of India offering MBA course. The fee of IIM is quite high in comparison to other government Management colleges. The reason for the high fee is that they are not funded directly by the government. The Below is the comparison of IIM Bangalore fee with other top government MBA colleges:

Learning Experience: The course is very relevant to our day-to-day life and the industry's needs. We get to learn many creative subjects like accounts, coding, building a venture from 250, and UI/UX.

Faculty: They have one of the best faculties all over India. The lectures and the tests are very comprehensive, testing the needs and satisfying the learning aspects in one of the most prestigious Institutes in India. The course has a trimester system in one year, with 3 semesters.
