Hi,In order to take admission in MBA the eligibility criteria needs to be met in LPU.The eligibility is 55% + LPUNEST/CAT/MAT/XAT/NMAT/CMAT+ Interview or Completed Company Secretary (CS) from Institute of Company Secretaries of India (ICSI) or Completed Chartered Accountancy (CA) from Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) or Completed Cost & Management Accountancy (CMA) from Institute of Cost Accountants of India (ICAI).Let me share with you interview competencies that are tested as part of MBA interviews in LPU. The various parameters includes Fluency, Grammatical errors, elaboration of the concept, Clarity in thought process, Confidence, General Awareness, and leadership quality. In LPU when you sit for an MBA interview there are 2 panelists one from the core domain and the other from soft skills to assess you on speaking skills. Both the panelists will be rating you on the competency and a score will be generated. On the basis of the cut-off score only you will be considered as qualified or not. Hence, whatever is the specialization that you are wishing to opt for the faculty of the core domain will be checking you on that and keeping in mind the above competencies stated. And Yes, you will be checked about the General Awareness so you need to keep yourself up to date. You will be asked questions related to your graduation degree and what made you go for MBA as well. So, kindly prepare the justification for that. So, all the best. Stay confident and answer the questions logically keeping the above-stated factors in mind. As what questions will come your way depend upon the panelists but the factors on which you are going to be tested remain the same. Some common guidelines for appearing for Interview. 1.Ensure the web camera is working fine 2.You audio piece equipment needs to be working fine. 3.Test the audio and video before appearing for interview. 4.There should not be anyone else in the room. 5.Find a quiet place around. 6.Keep the camera at a steady position. 7.Do not sound too casual

One of the Best Private Colleges.

Placements: The placement scenario for my batch was decent, with around 60-70% of students getting placed throughout the campus drive. The highest package was around 10-20 LPA, with an average of 7 LPA. Top companies include HCL, Amazon, Microsoft, Wipro, Apple, and many more.

Infrastructure: Everything is good about the campus, including Wi-Fi facilities. Transportation is easy since golf carts and cycles are available everywhere. Classes are fully air-conditioned. There are many labs and sports facilities, including a sports complex with an indoor stadium.

Faculty: In the examination hall, teachers are very cooperative with students. Everything is handled easily, and the environment is strict. There’s a no-cheating guarantee, and silence is maintained in the classroom. All teachers are very helpful. All thanks to Lovely Professional University.

Other: Many events happen on this campus.

good college better than many private college,high crowd but many great opportunites

Learning Experience: Course content is good.Teacher teaches as per their planned course,they teach us from ppts which common in every college but many teachers are good her expect some.i had to study from online resources like online lectures.the university provides labs and learning platform.

Placements: placements are average as compared to many top colleges but reason is high crowd and quality of crowd studying here but if you have skills you can crack companies visiting here.Some well known companies visit here but competiton is very high due to large number of students here.There is placement cell here which conducts training sessions which are very helpful if you take it seriously.Securing good placement depends on you more than the college role.

Faculty: There is mix of good and average teacher,due to large number of students ,there is many faculty staff which affects quality of teachers and quality of lecture.Curriculum is somewhat updated and they don't put high syllabus on us.Regular assesments are given which are hectic but it has also pro side it helps in maintaining consistency in studies.

Course Support: Course support is good but not very great.LPU provides us support through faculty,mentors and online resourses and portals.you can ask doubt to teachers after class,they are helpful and respond to us.There are doubt clearing and extra classes tooo which are very useful.You can book appointment to mentor,HOD etc for more support.

4Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Satisfied with the course and would recommend it if you have low expectations.

Placements: All the students got placed. Fewer students in our batch make it easier for the placement cell to get us all placed. I was hired as a trainee at Zydus Healthcare Limited. Most of my batchmates were hired for 5 LPA in Amber Enterprises, most of us got at least 2 offer letters.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi and other infrastructure are the best parts of the university. The quality of food in hostels is pretty bad, to be honest, so I wouldn't recommend taking them, but there are food stalls from different parts of India if you need to have some food from your hometown. Also, Domino's and other brands like Subway are present on campus.

Faculty: Teachers are fine, not great, not bad. The teaching quality is the same, but they put in efforts to get us placed and know each one of us individually, which is a great thing. The curriculum is so advanced as compared to local government colleges since they focus on our soft skills and programming language training from semester 1, so we are ready for both core and non-core jobs.

Other: I chose this course because my maternal uncle is also working in this field, and I was pretty sure I'd like this field, working with machines, designing stuff. The things I wished could have improved are that if the courses were more practical and hands-on, with more industrial training, it would have helped us understand the subjects much more easily. The college fests and crowd are the best part about the campus, if u need to have a good student life, I guess LPU is one of the best in India to have so, it's so culturally rich.

Review of LPU - Lovely Professional University.

Placements: In our college, placements are pretty good, but the competition is very high. Our college received so many admissions this year, which is nearly 50 thousand. There is a scope for our batch that we can get better placements if we work hard. For our course, there are low placements. In biotechnology, there are a few core jobs. If we need a well-paying job, then we need to work so hard.

Infrastructure: I can't say that the infrastructure is awesome. Our course blocks are clean and well-managed inside. The outside look is average. But the winning facilities are top grade. There is a Good Wi-Fi speed, which is nearly 10 GB per second, but in working hours, it is 2 to 3 GB per second. It is the same in the hostel as well.

Faculty: Our faculty members are the best. I cannot guarantee that every teacher is the same, but I can say we can often find good faculty members. Good ones always help students in research papers, patents, and exams as well. They give us good pointers for exams, and exams are top in our college. They are conducted very strictly and securely. The paper will be tough, and we need knowledge to answer it.

Other: I chose this course because I love my course. Biotechnology is my dream, and I can say I chose one of the best colleges for it. My course offers the best output for students. I am learning serious knowledge in science and technology. In biotech, we learn not only about Science but also about computers and AI. I wish that our college would improve its practical and industrial knowledge. Our course requires it a lot. All extracurricular activities conducted are good. Events are conducted frequently for students to join.

Everything in the course curriculum is relevant and up-to-date with current requirements and digital teaching, AI use and working with AI involvement. As per the industry requirement and industry-ready. If a student be attentive through the semester and studies as per the syllabus and guidance of the teacher, the exam is not that difficult, it is an average level for every student. The passing percentage is 40% overall theory and 50% practice.

Other: My course offers both graduate and post graduate degree in 4 years, but after the new education policy, it has changed to five year course. In my course, it took 1 year less time and proper skill set development with more opportunities than BBA and MBA students. No improvement is needed. The course is perfect. There are multiple clubs and sports tournaments, campus fest, and one Indian cultural fest, Holi, Diwali, Dussehra, and dandiya nights. Professional interaction session popular actors, sports persons, company founder, CEO and many more people come to our campus every year. It is a full package of learning, enjoyment, and adventure.
