Dear Pradeep,

Hope you are doing great,

As you want to know about the IIM Ahmedabad interview.

Please explain why you want to pursue that course. If you are unsure, it creates a negative impression. You're willing to give up some years of your life and a lot of money for a course that you're not even sure why you want to do. This is illogical. Try to come up with a legitimate answer to this question. And I can assure you that neither Quora nor Google have an answer for this. Don't memorise the answers your coach gives you. The panel is not so deafeningly deafeningly deafeningly deafeningly deafeningly deafeningly

If you are a newcomer, please be prepared to answer questions about your field. You don't have to be a master of your field, but since you've been studying it for four years, make sure you know something about it.

I Hope this will help you,
Best of Luck :)

Hello Aspirant!

It would be a great opportunity ,If I ever be able to study with such an extraordinary personality. But one of the personality who was able to study with Aditya Khanna has shared his experience.

Khanna (a nickname given by peers) was creative, intelligent, and quite team-spirited. He believed that journey is more fascinating than the destination. My senior also told me that he loved the process of completing the assignments more than the submission. He believed in a Zen approach towards everything. During tough group assignments, he used to tell his group members - “Ho jayega bro, koi tension nai!”. He was spontaneous and had a good sense of humor too.

Hii there Shruti!

Here are some of the fundamental things that you must keep in mind before preparing for an IIM A Interview.

Your responses should make you stand out from the crowd and you need to express yourself in a very logical manner with confidence and zeal. There is no set of questions that they can ask, you have to expect even the unexpected. Secondly, there is no right or wrong to a question, how you express yourself and your answers is what matters the most.

Hope this helps.

All the very Best :))

Hello.

Yes there are many people who apply for IIM Ahmedabad, get selected but not choose it. There are many reasons why it happens . It coins be that they are interested in other course that is not offered by the institution, or they faced some difficulty for which they weren't able to take admission.

Hey aspirant,

I would say that there is no such thing as better among the best. All the 3 iims are good in their own way. Your decision should be based on the parameters that suits you the best. Just go by your instincts and be focused wherever you go and whatever you do!

IIM A has a majority of placements in Consulting along with Sales & Marketing while Consulting is the forte of IIM B and Finance for IIM C.

All of them are equally good. They have such good placements that you cannot say no to.

They offer an annual placement of 22-25 lakhs..can be higher or slightly lower. You can visit the official sites of the respective IIMs and judge on the basis of parameters in your mind.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

A major difference between Indian schools and all top US and European schools is the approach towards placements. In most international schools, it is the student who is encouraged to make the effort to inform, and by leveraging the considerable resources at the disposal of the school, make a considered choice of where he/she wishes to pursue a role.

Due to this, it might surprise some to know that most of the top schools do not have 100% guaranteed placement records at the time of graduation – in fact, most report a placement range of around 95%-99% 3 months after graduation date.

Now coming to your question, INSEAD is a better Global B School and IIMA is a better B school if you wish to work in the Indian market.

If you wish to pursue a career in India- IIM A is arguably the best bet. Studying abroad (in a college as great as INSEAD) could prove to be really bad ROI (without a scholarship of course).

However, if you wish to pursue an international career, INSEAD is the way to go. It can open doors to a truly international career. Far better than IIMA can.

You cannot compare top IIM & INSEAD directly. The profile of the students, professors and opportunities available are somewhat different.

Hope it helps.

Hi,

The Cohort-based system is a longer placement process as compared to the previous 'Slot Zero' concept, but is significantly more advantageous.

Cohort is a phenomenon in which all the companies are divided into industry groups. These groups are known as cohorts. For eg. Consulting is a Cohort.

All companies belonging to a single cohort, come at the same day and start the process at the same time. There is no differentiation in terms of salary.

IIM-A shall also be launching an internally developed talent bouquet system as part of Cohort that allows interaction between the firms and students using networking tools such as chatting.

Hope it helps.

Hi,

Instead of me telling this as I never studied at IIMA, I found a really good answer online which would summarise the whole life at IIMA by an IIMA alumnus.

"What is it like to study at IIMA...well to say the least, it is a life changing experience. The first year at IIMA is tough, it will probably unlike anything you would have faced before. To describe a typical day, this is what it looks like:
We had 3 lectures everyday starting 8:45 am every morning running till 1:10 pm. The professors are very strict about in-class discipline and being on time. The doors close at 8:45 am sharp, and even if you are late by half a minute you aren't allowed in. Invariably in the first year, we used to have surprise quizzes twice/thrice a week. The quiz notice was put right outside the mess, and if it was one of those lucky days it meant you pretty much skipped your lunch. Head straight to the dorms, to prepare for the quiz at 2:30 pm. After the quiz, get back to your dorms around 3:30pm and crash..get a few hours of sleep. Get up around 5:30 pm and start preparing for next day's classes. IIMA has a complete case-based curriculum. We as students were required to study the theory on our own + solve the class. A good preparation for a lecture required about 2.5-3hrs...so in all about 8-9 hrs of study required for the next day's classes. On top of that we had group submissions & assignments which took up another couple of hours. So on an average day you would probably be up till 4-4:30 in the morning. Sounds daunting, and a lot of us used to flip at the thought of it before we entered IIMA..but you get so used to it..that you start enjoying it.
Coming to the professors at IIMA, without a doubt the smartest people I have ever met. Each one of the professors I had were so passionate about the courses they taught...only one word comes to my mind when I think of professors like Prof Ajay Pandey/Prof Seb Morris/Prof JR Varma...they were gods! But more than anything, what impacts you is the company of the people you are with. You batchmates and peers are the sharpest and brightest people you would come across...it is such a humbling experience.
How IIMA changes you as a person - well, the answer to question is subjective and it depends from person to person. As for me, IIMA taught me the discipline, business ethics, value of hard work, humility, and a never ever EVER say die attitude. IIMA has endless amounts of knowledge and opportunities to offer, depends on how much you are able to take out of it. Some people hated the cut throat competition, some people relished it. But more than anything else, IIMA builds character. At the end of two years you may come out on the bottom or the top, it doesn't matter. What matters is you will know what you're made of. And all these lessons will be apparent and visible in whatever you do, and this is what will make you stand apart..compared to grads from IIM B/C/D/XYZ or whatever.
It has been almost 3 years since I graduated and not a day goes by when I don't think about the time I spent at IIMA...how privileged I was to be a part of the legacy and how I try to live up to the name every single day. "

Hope it helps.
