Which IIM to select
I think this is the best platform to ask this question. My goal with the IIM is to get connections and grow my network. IIM Kashipur IIIM Bodh gaya IIM Sambalpur IIM Trichy IIM Raipur IIM Udaipur IIM Sirmaur I’ve previously worked on various positions in multiple startups with 3 exits. Also worked with VCs as partner / investor. Currently am a Hedge fund manager and indie hacker. My goal’s to make connections that will help me to get ahead in life. I really want to know which one to go for Also pls tell why should I join the particular IIM thanks 🙏
Why do you want to go to these newer IIMs? What do you expect out of an MBA?
Many doors were closed for me for last few years I think IIMs are great equaliser for opening those doors
Can you be more specific? I went to one of the older ones and I can confirm whether your assumptions are valid so that you don't have to waste two years and 30 lakhs in fees to figure it out.

Raipur would be best bet considering the list you have given. Established at the same time as Shillong.

Sambalpur has good management. Placements are superb. Not everyone gets the high package in all institutions, depends on individual capabilities. I recommend Sambalpur 😅👍. Red flag for Trichy
Udaipur and Trichy are class apart from rest of list . And Baby IIMs not at par with older IIMs . Avoid them

Can you afford to take another attempt given the time-effort commitments?
I think for your profile, targeting BLACK makes more sense. You'll prolly get a better leverage on contacts & network.
Thanks sir🙏 I admire BLACK IIM .
I don’t want to risk this opportunity I studied really hard and only got in the above IIMs if I’m to put more I’m not really sure what i can put more.
And now fund has started and will not have time like before

TLDR : Avoid all of these and try again next year.
Can highlight where not to go : Raipur (because of location: it is a big recruting constraint), the newer of the newer ones - B, Sa, Sir (because of age in network, and location).
I sense you pretty much have a solid work ex and will benefit from a stronger alum base of campuses that send ppl to VC/ startup roles.
I cannot leave these chances. Parents will not accept they have already told all my relatives and my Venture Partner also are the support to go for it and not waste the year.
We have already raised 60mn for our hedge fund and cannot stop the momentum and this IIM tag will just add more respect for our fund altogether

First of all congrats. 60Mn INR or USD?
I will be blunt here. For your accomplishments, I am disappointed that it matters to you what your relatives think or parents will accept. If this startup doesnt work, your MBA will be the next big thing in your profile. Don't do it so casually.
If you have raised 60mn$, your output is already better than what any of these schools will provide. Your Venture partner is misleding you. Better you join and drop in 1 month. Take the tag and not spend 2 yrs.
And why not do ISB? Shorter time period, great network and no fuss of cat.

Trichy any day. Some consulting firms do recruit there. Also, industry brand is better because of proximity to NIT trichy which is a decent engineering college
Thanks for sharing sir🙏. As far as I’ve read Trichy really does sound like a good option
Trichy,udaipur and Raipur are the top three. Rest all baby iims dont go for it

You have come a long way for your age. Congratulations. You need to back yourself more and take a shot at a better tag - I would suggest waiting out 2-3 years and applying to ISB / insead / attempting CAT / XAT again next year to get into the older IIMs. Any other tag may not solve what you are looking for given you have a good job already.
Thanks for appreciating me sir🙏.For me to go to put down two-three years isn’t right decision as of now. I’m already making 12cr per annum this IIM tag from any IIM will just increase my earning 5x as my fund size will grow irrespective of the IIM I’ve selected and the same I’ll have even more exits as CTO / CEO as the time goes by.
Thanks a lot sir 🙏
Raipur is good and on par with Tirichy/ Udaipur
