MBA Eligibility

In my experience, classes are structured well, so I focus properly during lectures and complete assignments on time. I don't keep work pending. That really helps during exams.

For placements, preparation starts early here. We regularly have aptitude practice, mock interviews, presentations, and soft skills sessions. Because it's part of our routine, I never felt like I had to suddenly start preparing at the last minute.

Along with that, I also take part in club activities and events. Honestly, those activities helped me improve my confidence and communication skills. I usually manage extracurriculars after classes or during event days, without affecting my studies.

How the Faculty–Student Ratio Affects Mentorship at GIBS (Point Wise)

• Having a balanced ratio

GIBS has an approximate student-to-professor ratio of 15:1, which helps promote faculty-student interaction.

• Greater personal attention

The smaller number of students per professor allows professors the opportunity to work with students individually.

•  Easier doubt clarification

With smaller ratios of students to faculty, it is much easier for students to communicate with faculty after classes should they have any doubt about a concept or assignment.

•  A strong mentoring system

All faculty have to mentor small groups of students, who they guide through the academic programme, internships and career planning.

•  Regular mentor-mentee meetings

Regular, structured mentor-mentee meetings provide students the opportunity to discuss their academic issues, personal challenges and professional goals.

• Career and internship mentoring

Mentors track students' progress and assist in project selection, as well as provide guidance during internships and placement.

•  Holistic development

The mentoring model encourages confidence and develops skills, which in turn leads to enhanced career development.
