ISB vs MiM

I cleared ISB stage 1 today, I need your insights to decide whether to go for an MBA in India or MiM abroad wrt ROI, career growth and trajectory. Where will I make more money considering it’s a very important factor I want to get into IB/Consulting/PEVC

I will let others chime in. But ISB isn't good for IB/PEVC. For consulting, it's great as McK, BCG, Bain hire in huge numbers from there.

Spot on. ISB is not for IB. Consulting too is not a walk in the park. If you’re from an IIT/Prem UG and have a CGPA of 3.7+ it’s possible

I have worked with any top tier MBA graduates but ISB people are best with high emotional intelligence and empathy!

  1. Depends on where you want to work: MiM is great if you want to work abroad. ISB is great for India. This is an important factor as your network will mostly be in the country that you graduate in.

  2. ISB is amazing for consulting, strategy roles, PM. Not great for IB/PE/VC at all (know of folks that came from IB/VC and went back to the same but I’m guessing that’s not relevant for you)

Oh! What is the way to get into IB/PEVC? How likely I’m to convert Consulting (tier 1 DU college)

No idea about IB/PE.
Consulting requires great GPA + consulting interview prep. Very attainable if you know that’s what you want to do and consistently work towards interview prep/ cv/ gpa while at ISB

lots of good resources and help will be provided at the school as well

Purely from free cash flow perspective MiM will bring more $

Landing IB from either MiM or ISB is unlikely

Would strongly recommend ISB over MiM coz post-graduation roles will be a level higher at ISB
