Remarks :

Mine 2 years at this campus were the most memorable experience of my life. Had satisfaction both on career and personal development.

Entrance Preview :

XAT, 95 percentile in 2009. I hadn't applied to many colleges. This particular college was famous for its Finance faculties, and had the lowest fee, which i was eligible for, at that point of time.

Internships Opportunities :

Many Finance companies, marketing and IT companies came for Internship but stipend was not substantial to mention except for one or two cases. Mine was with SBI mutual fund though i also had an offer from a marketing firm.

Placement Experience :

Placement is being 100 % throughout all batches. Companies like, Nomura, Bank of America, all IT companies, few marketing companies and few other finance companies come for campus placement. The average Package on offer has been increasing year over year. During 2011 , the average package was 6.75 lakhs, which has now increased to 8 lacs.

College Events :

IFMR has a national Festival Abhudaya, which is both cultural, technical and Management attracting students from almost all top management institutes across India. Apart from this, they have many social, cultural and other management events which happens throughout the year. All the festivals are celebrated in the campus with numerous DJ nights. The freshers and farewell parties are worth to attend. They also have an annual alumni meet.

Fee Structure And Facilities :

The fee structure during my tenure was just 6 lakhs for 2 years and around 1.5 lakhs for hostel and mess. All the books, notebooks are provided by the college. They also give u a very good laptop and a nice pair of corporate formals.

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :

They do have scholarship facility for toppers and loan facility is available from all nationalised banks.

Campus Life :

Gender ratio is 70:30 (M:F). hostel is fun to live in. We used to have a coed hostel. During my tenure, we had a small but a beautiful campus in the heart of the chennai which happened to be the posh area of chennai. Also Loyala colege(LIBA) was less than a KM away from pour campus. Now they have a new campus in outskirts of chennai with state of the art facility.

Alumni/Alumna :

It has a strong alumni network with alumnis working in almost all industries at very good positions. The placement cell is in continuous touch with the alumni network for placement assistance to current students.

Exam Structure :

The exam structure was very flexible, depending upon the professors for different subjects. It had no fixed pattern. We used to have open book, open laptop, no books no laptop, library access types, only one case study based, only presentation based and many other type of formats.

Faculty :

IFMR had one of the highest paid faculties with a blend strong academic backgrounds and industrial experience. They were also involved in the various research projects in collaboration with Harvard university.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum of the college is very good and also it helps the students to know the basics of business. I guarantee that the people who want to start a business could get a better knowledge of marketing aspects. Not only that due to the proper curriculum and also topics involved in it, we can have proper knowledge on each core subject. There will be 2 mid-exams and also for every year 2 semesters of exams will be conducted.

Placement Experience:

The students get opportunities from the 4th trimester itself but the majority of companies visit in the 5th trimester. In my academic year, due to recession the offers got affected but the college generally gets 100% placements with decent median package. For my batch the average was 12 lpa. The lowest and highest were 6 lpa and 22 lpa. The companies which offer great packages are Nomura, HSBC, Barclay's, Yubi etc.

Placement Experience:

From the 4th semester, students can get placements. The average package for the students opting for this course will be around 5LPA. One need have minimum percentage of 70% to get placed. So maximum of the students around 80% will get placed. I will join the company based on the offers I receive from the placements.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I choose the course because of I have more interest on business and business environment. In our college, the faculty is too bad because they not well trained and even sometimes they will not provide faculty also. The way of teaching is also not good. The term exams are moderate and if we study means we will definetely pass.

Admission:

I took the APICET exam and then I contacted the college through their helpline and then I was told to fill out the form online and the cut off marks was above 70% and my score in the test was 74% and then my application got shortlisted and had counseling and chose this college and did a documentation and that is how my admission is done.

Placement Experience:

The placement cell in our college guides and assist us. They held workshops for us and test to improve our soft skills and our communication skills. The placement works hard to place a number of students to a big companies and invited companies like Mayur group of industries, Mahindra, Reliance, etc.
