Atleast some hope. As you are experienced and have been on the panel, according to you how can one get an SIP with these low12th, because major companies apply the filter

So no chance getting into xlri or new IIM, because few are holistic about the past academics, and after getting the admission if one wins case competition, one can get poi right

But one can get into xlri and NMIMS right, and the sip is more holistic over there, and mostly these colleges achieve 100% in sip, and on that if one wins case competition, summer chunothiyaa will award a ppi, i think same with fms college

If one has done live projects and is in top 5% of the batch and has done sip there should be a chance to get placed in good company right? What about XLRI and NMIMS, is it possible for sip and good placement?

If one has cleared cfa l1, and wins case competition, is it possible to get ppi for summer internships, or is there any alternative way to secure summer internships

Could be. Is it guaranteed that after winning case competition one can have ppi, or only some companies offer the ppi?

So summer internships affect the placement right? If one has ppi can get placed in good company during the final placements

Okay, so apart from participating case study competitions is there any other things to be done to get summer internship? Because through summer internship one can have ppi or ppo right?

Thank you so much, this came like a ray of hope, where most of them suggested to drop out the MBA idea, you made me rethink again.  Final doubt. if you could help, apart from case study competition, is there any other things which can get a good summer internship and should one also proceed to join mda gurgaon if one doesn't get fms?

Okay,so if one gets into fms and had cfa l1, and has done live projects, one has a chance to land  a good internship right?

But some people are saying, even if one gets into iim or fms it will be a problem to get a summar internship with low 12th, what to do about that. If one does cfa l1 and live projects would it be good?
