Hello Lokesh, I completely understand the confusion you are undergoing in selecting your college. While selecting the college Lokesh, you should figure out which college would fetch you more opportunities and growth platforms to showcase your actual abilities and interests. I am a student of GIBS B Schools and have experienced immense growth opportunities and platforms where I could understand how well I am appreciated in corporate world. Students here run through many activities and value added programs arranged by the management that helps them to shape their personality and skill in to a corporate one. Every student is in some or other clubs or committees like Marketing, HR, Finance, Entrepreneurship and many more handling their respective responsibilities. We get twice a week guest lectures where dignities from corporate addresses us and nourishes our minds with actual scenario of the corporate world. Students coming up with innovations and new ideas are appreciated and encouraged. Recently we had a national symposium "ENCHAINER 2K16" and on the same day one of our finest student Miss. Shraddha Patil launched a new club named "Women Empowerment" and another student Mr, Floyd Fernandes opened a "Student's Research Center" where college students will do research in areas of their interest and the selected ones would be published in Magazines or Newspapers. So, student can actively and openly work in areas of their interests to add up to their profile. So, I suggest you to visit the campus once and experience the same and then take your decision regarding your admission. If you have further queries please feel free to ask. Thank You.
Regards,
Mr. Swaraj Mane
