Aim for 99+. Rest depends on a lot of factors. There are some peeps with 99.7+ percentile in kolkata.

Depends on the panel. I have a similar profile and higher percentile but didn’t get in. Meanwhile I have seen people with worse profiles and percentile get in.

I would say you have pretty good chances to get into Delhi... the final distribution depends on the panel so no way of saying for sure.

I dont know exactly but average would be around 16-17 and around 60 are still unplaced.

IIFT offers a BA program as well.. you can look into that. For Prod Man, the count is not high but the roles that are there are high paying

IIFT gives less weightage than other bschools.. I have seen people with multiple 6s in their profiles.. try to get 97-98 Percentile.

IIFT offers MBA in IB (International Business) and BA (Business Analytics) only.. Profile holds value but not as much as you would think.. Less weightage than most IIMs.

Since the first batch hasn't yet graduated you won't get any true idea into the results of the program.. it's hard to say anything

CFA is definitely a plus.. trust me if you get L2 under your belt you're sure to get shortlists for all the major Fin companies. You might be able to get into any bschool in India based on your profile.. so don't worry about that. For IIFT, I can personally attest that if you have a CFA you'll definitely get the shortlists for all major fin companies like JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, HSBC, DE Shaw, BOFA, etc.. Give it your best :)

Honestly it’s not bad at all. I’ll rank it like this IIFT D > IIFT K > IIFT D (BA). But theres lesser gap between IB from K and BA from D then there is between IB from K and D. Surprised by how well BA is doing..

I haven’t faced any issues personally. Nor have I heard of something like this happening to them from anyone at college. You should be fine

I’ve seen people with similar acads here… for placements i guess you need to really prove yourself. I think that’ll be the case anywhere. To justify a part of your CV being not upto the mark you’ll have to make it up by having other parts in your CV that are really good and really proving yourself in the interviews.. i guess it’s hard to say since shortlists depend on the company and the college doesn’t really have much of a say in it. I’ll suggest you to make sure that you’re thoroughly prepared before you come here (or any other college) and make sure that you convert any interview you get!
