Course Curriculum Overview :
As an aspirant an MBA would teach us time management, and other management skills and would help enhance our personality as whole so that we are ready for the real-world. The curriculum under the MBA course at IIM Kashipur covers all the aspects of Business namely Finance, Marketing, Operations, Leadership, HR, Business Analytics and others in the the first year of the course. In the second year of the course we can go with the subjects of our liking and study only those subjects. This curriculum makes you real world ready not only from the business perspective but as a person in whole by teaching you about the real life scenarios and how to act upon them. Only improvement that I feel is required in the curriculum is that we have a lot of subjects in the first year but we do not have much time to have an in depth knowledge of most of them, this should be rectified. At IIM Kashipur we have Mid Term exams in every 1.5 months and End term exams in another 1.5 months, a year has 3 semester

Hostel Facilities :
Currently in the first I live in a double shared room with facilities such as a table and chair, a godrej almirah per person. The room includes an attached bathroom with all the bathroom facilities available. The quality of meal and menu can be considered as the best among all the Business schools all around India. The registration process is quite simple and non confusing, but it is quite expensive.
Admission :
The entrance exam to study the course of MBA from my college is called CAT, after clearing the written CAT exam, I had to appear for a Personal Interview, under the CAP round of admission. The admission criteria weighed each of the aspects namely CAT score, Interview score, Diversity, Work Experience and Extra Curriculum to a certain degree. Eligibility for this course includes at least a Bachelor's degree. I have not availed any kind of reservation, but there are some caste based reservations. The CAT exam is held every year on the last Sunday of November every year. The admission process should be more robust and bit more clear so that there does lie any sort of confusion among the aspirants as this process is the stepping stone for their future.
Interview Experience :
Yes, I had to appear for a personal interview for the admission. The questions in the Personal Interview included: Current affairs, General Knowledge, Knowledge about the subjects from one's bachelor's, 12th and 10th grade as well. Each college gives different weightage to different aspects of the process including CAT score, interview score, Diversity, Work Experience and Extra Curriculum. I prepared for the Personal Interview by watching some recorded online interviews on the internet.
