SCHOOL COMMENTS

School Comments:

There are approximately 300,000 applicants each year, vying for the seats in the IIMs. IIMB current intake is 350. The survey does not accept percentages below 1, so this is not reflected. IIMB also has a full-time MBA programme of one year duration. The survey has no provision to cover that.
