A few years ago, I was in the same spot as you — scrolling through several MBA colleges, reading reviews of top B-schools, comparing placements, and trying to figure out which I should choose.

At that time, PIBM was among the shortlisted colleges. At first, I wasn't sure. I mean, every college claims to offer the same, that is the best MBA experience, right? But something about PIBM's focus on practical learning and corporate exposure caught my attention. So that is why I took admission based on my CAT score.

A few years ago, I was in the same spot as you — scrolling through several MBA colleges, reading reviews of top B-schools, comparing placements, and trying to figure out which I should choose.

And to be honest! I'm glad I did.

From Day 1, I noticed that they were not just sharing theoretical, bookish knowledge but also discussing real business cases, presenting strategies, conducting mock interviews, and interacting with industry experts through corporate sessions almost every week. There were also industry visits, industry networks, and more. They also offer specialised training and industry certifications like NISM, CISI, CPA, CFA, CA, and more. It felt like we were being trained for the real corporate world, not just for exams.

I still remember our first corporate session where the speaker said, “This is how corporate strategies and business practices actually work in the market.” That hit me. It wasn't theory anymore. It was real, and it was exciting.

Over time, I started building my confidence, my communication improved, and I understood what top companies actually look for. The faculty was always there to guide, not just as teachers, but like corporate mentors.

Placements? Yes, I got placed. So did most of my batchmates — in finance, marketing, FMCG, BFSI, IT & ITES, Consulting, and more. But here's the thing — the college gives every student the platform, where you have to run the race to get the best.

Outside studies, life at PIBM was fun too! Cultural fests, late-night prep sessions, chai breaks, and the friends I made — those memories are priceless.

So, if you're thinking about joining PIBM, here's my honest advice:

If you're ready to learn, grow, and give your best through practical learning, PIBM can shape you into a confident, corporate-ready professional from day one. Trust the process, show up, and you'll thank yourself later.

Thank you!
