Here is an individual's experience at IIT Roorkee, which was one in which he received admission to the institute in 2004 after having eight years of work experience. At that time, the management programs at IITs were relatively new and placements were not as strong as they are now. Despite this, he decided to attend IITR and focus on their studies and enjoying their MBA experience, rather than worrying about job prospects. As a result, he performed well academically and was able to secure an okay job in the IT industry. Through hard work and dedication, he was able to triple his salary within four years and work on projects in various countries. Ultimately, he retired in 2010 to travel and is still doing so seven years later. He believes that both IITs and new IIMs are good options for business education and that it ultimately depends on the individual's goals and priorities. He advises focusing on academics and enjoying the experience, as a job will eventually be obtained.
