I have to choose one between IPE Hyderabad and KIIT SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT Bhubaneswar. I am confused.Please help.

Hi Tanya!

First of all, congratulations on getting calls from IPE and KIIT school of management. You would seem to have a really good MAT score going by the options you have. Since you have two options, it is always better to consider the following options before you make a decision.

IPE , Hyderabad.

• The fees of the college along with hostel and other charges can come up to 11 lakhs and the median package is around 5 lakhs. They have different courses like Retail marketing, banking, and financial services, Human resource management and international business.
• Recruiters - Amazon, Deloitte, TCS, Cognizant, ICICI, HDFC, Franklin, Federal bank, Karvy etc.

KIIT School of Management - KSOM Bhubaneswar

• The average salary is Rs.6 lakhs.
• Top recruiters include TCS, HDFC Bank, ICICI Securities, Dell, Deloitte, HDFC, Reliance Industries, CCD
• The course fee is Rs. 12  lakhs

It shouldn't be a problem in converting the call if your GDPI goes well enough. It need not be exceptional but once should also make sure that it isn't downhill. The competition for management seats are high and thus it is advisable for you to buckle up and prepare most of the current affairs, your aspirations after an MBA, a sound knowledge about your work-related stuff and also about the undergraduate program. Make sure that you give them enough fodder material to ask questions upon and keep the interview running in your favor. That should work in your favor.

Before you enter in please make sure that you're aware of what you want to pursue because once you choose, you'd be specialized in the same and changing the course would be difficult. Regarding the placements, please talk or get in touch with the alumni over LinkedIn to understand the inside scenario of the college, as most of the data available online could widely be overshadowed.

If you have great scores at the academic level, it is also advisable for you to attempt for CAT/MAT once again next year because most of the colleges would give you a call based on decent CAT scores and academics, like IIM Indore and IIM Bangalore. Your work experience will also add to the advantage.

Good luck! Feel free to contact for further queries.
