IIM Lucknow Alumni

See, your academics are the most problematic things, as with 75%, 87% in schooling (10th and 12th), and 75% in your graduation, you are in quite disadvantageous position. And since you are in B.Sc, you'll be counted in the same bucket as engineers, you you'll get no diversity points as well.

The best thing will be that you re-attempt CAT after getting some work experience, because workex is the only thing which can counter all the negative things in your CV. All the best!

Hi,

Both MDI Gurgaon and IIM Lucknow are top tier B-Schools of India and getting an oppurtunity to study in any of them is a blessing in disguise. However there are few differences in the courses we must consider:

Course details:

• PGPM in MDI Gurgaon- PGPM Course is designed to nurture students and help build their managerial and leadership qualities. This programme helps understand social, economic, political and ecological environment of modern society. It helps students become leaders and think out of the box.
• ABM in IIM Lucknow- The two-year Post Graduate Programme in Agribusiness Management is a full -time residential course designed to develop agribusiness leaders, entrepreneurs, and intrapreneurs with vision, competence and appropriate attitude for promoting/ growing agribusiness and agro-based enterprises with a strong international orientation.

Think about your priorities clearly. If you want to contribute to the agro industries then definitely you should pursue ABM course. Else you can go for PGPM course.
