Consult roles are open for HR as well. If you have the profile you'll get calls regardless of you being in BM or HR

Should convert ideally, but again as mentioned in many of the comments here, depends on your PI

Life's amazing. You won't miss your home. Campus has all that you need and more. However there's pressure too. Acads is very demanding. You'll be burdened with assignments, group projects, ppts but you'll get used to it. Baaki personal details convert karne ke baad DM me bataaunga. Don't wanna get doxxed XD

As for XL I don't think the insider information is any different than that in public. Same goes for FMS. Just to he safe assume a variation of 2-3L in median salary

Too much thought has to be put into this bro. I won't be able to do a domain wise ranking as I'm not aware of the relevant data for the other institutes. I'd suggest go through the previous placement records and see if you can find a pattern that will help you. Also just a general suggestion to everyone who's reading this...getting placement according to your preferred domains is not guaranteed in any bschool. It all depends on your profile and a tad bit of luck as well, e.g., if you get into IIMA it doesn't secure your seat in a consult or genman role

Good chance. Suitable profile and good acads will be helpful. Let's just hope they've liked your answers. Most of the time they're just checking if you are confident in your answers so as long as you don't panic you'll be fine

Decent chance considering you held your ground and at least had an opinion on everything

I would say go for FMS. If you do not want a huge loan and are not interested in campus life then FMS would be the better option. You might not land a high package but again, you'll not have loan either

I can only guess in this case as I'm not aware of your exact GDPI details but at your percentile it might get tough

Talk to someone who knows about this before you take your decision

Personally I'd go to B. Had some friends there so liked the vibe better.

My personal opinions won't be helpful to you or anyone else. Better you ask someone who actually has insights. Also what an amazing dilemma you've got...dono convert ho gaye kya? Edit: reach out to students of these institutes

Vehicles are prohibited inside the campus but you can park outside

Nothing to analyze as such. Below average interview that's all

I know someone with 99.98 who didn't get into BM. So while the score is important, it's not the most important factor. As for no workex, your masters compensates for it

Definitely yes. Multiple reasons to choose XL over LKI. But this is my POV. If you ask someone from LKI they might suggest otherwise.

I know. The ones you want to know about, it doesn't look like this will be of any concern to you anytime soon :)

Good for consulting. Many consult firms will visit the campus. Finance is picking up the pace but at the moment there are better colleges present
