    Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad is one among the top class colleges for PGPM. It is far better than Indian Institute of Management Indore. IIM, Ahmedabad has a very strong brand name because of its consistency in performance. IIM-A campus is very old as compared to Indore.
    The strong points about IIM-A are:
    1. Strong alumni network - Approximately 5000+ alumni network they have. So, a lot of placement opportunities are there for the students. Almost all alumnis are in a very good position to bring big MNCs.
    2. Teaching- This campus has very expert teaching faculties with strong network.They can guide students with ease.
    3. Method

    I think everyone will have the same opinion. Indian Institute of management Ahmedabad is the best among all the B-Schools of the country. The alumni network and brand value of IIM Ahmedabad makes this Institute a favorite destination for top minds of the country. Here, you will get good ROI value. The Campus is very good. The reputation of the institute among the companies is just too good (even in foreign). Campus of IIM, Ahmedabad is awesome.
    IIM, Indore is also very good but it is new in the business and will take few more years to reach the level of IIM, Ahmedabad. So, go with the first choice that is Indian Institute of Management,

    IIM Ahmedabad is, undoubtedly, the clear winner over not just IIM Indore but almost all the other IIMs and non-IIMs for that matter. There are many reasons for the same: unparalleled teaching methodology, excellent corporate exposure, prestigious brand name, one of the best alumni base (Raghuram Rajan, Chetan Bhagat to name a few), great ROI(in the long run), beautiful campus life and lastly, top-notch placements. All the major companies across various specializations visit IIM-A every year to recruit several brilliant minds. The stringent admission criteria of IIM-A is such that only the best of the best get admitted into its differen

    That's a pretty straightforward choice to make. It is IIM A all the way.
    Brand value- This question will make a lot more sense if someone converts IIMA as you need a 99.8 + %ile and excellent acads (for a GEN category) to make the cut. IIM A is the creme-de-la-creme of all b-schools and has an enviable placement record. Not only it is numero uno in India for last two decades but the research in management education and the evolution of management education in India happens vis-a-vis this great b-school.
    Placement- If you compare the student capital and the placements/profiles of the graduating batch, you will notice a stark difference

    IIM, Ahmedabad is the topmost B - School of India. It is ranked No 1 postgraduate program in management in India by multiple rating agencies. It has the best brand value in both Indian and International job market. IIM, Ahmedabad PGP graduates start their management career a notch above other B-Schools graduates. IIM, Ahmedabad alumni network is strongest and help in career growth. IIM, Indore PGP is equally good but market acceptance of IIM, Ahmedabad is little better. If you have an option then you may prefer IIM, Ahmedabad over IIM, Indore for PGP in management.
