How would you compare a one-year MBA program from SP JAIN with ISB PGP or an IIM B EPGP?
-
Hello,
IIM's are still in the phase of earning a recognition for their 1-year program. I would rank ISB as the top most choice for the same. It is ranked under top 30 colleges for doing MBA from around the world. The program, course structure, faculty and post-MBA placements are excellent in ISB and have been a threat to all major IIM's one year MBA programs.
While getting into ISB's one year program is extremely difficult, it is comparatively easy to get into EPGP of IIM B. The second choice would be SP Jain. While ISB is pretty much ahead of SP Jain with respect to the above parameters, SP Jain is slowly catching up with the top colleg...more -
Compare on the basis three things:
1) Brand (and batchmates)
2) Coursework
3) Placements
I am sorry, but I don't have that good idea to choose one. -
It depends on your career goals and objectives. ISB PGP is a reputed program with a batch of 800 students providing opportunities for peer to peer learning. This is comparable to IIM-A, B, C PGPM of two years while offering a shorter career break. Almost 8% of the students get international offers with an average package of Rs 18 lakhs in India. If you are looking for a career in technology, pharmaceutical then ISB is a good option.

The question is quite interesting and would clear some misconceptions.
Firstly EPGP is an executive MBA program for people who already have a lot of work experience in the industry. So it cannot be directly compared with PGP programs. If you have considerable work experience then ISB is a good choice along with IIM-B EPGP.
ISB is better for people with work experience as there are less entry level jobs available at the time of placements. Go for ISB if you have work experience between 3-5 years. It will be difficult to get in after 8-10 years experience. The people in this bracket should go for IIM-B EPGP.
