IIM Ahmedabad: 3 Answered Questions

How good is the IIM Ahmedabad PGPX 1-year full-time program?

Abanti
Devansh PathakStudied at IIM Ahmedabad

If your current package is less than 15 LPA, pursuing PGPX 1-year full-time program at IIM Ahmedabad is good. You should look at international colleges if your current package exceeds 15 LPA. You should always do your MBA and find a job outside of India. India is simply the world's back office. It is different if you want to be an IAS officer, but Indian corporate is slavery and junk. Working here for an extended period of time will undoubtedly turn you into a lunatic.

One week of college life is enough to demonstrate the quality of American education. The tasks are out of this world. Americans are among the world's smartest and most innovative people. As a last resort, continue your education in India. Even if you have more than 5 years of work experience, IIM A/ISB will only hire you in one of India's back offices.

How useful was the course PGPX in IIM Ahmedabad for your career?

Ariz Raza
Nikhil JainPGP-PGDM from Indian Institute of Management Calcutta (Graduated 2019)

Whether the PGPX course in IIM Ahmedabad is useful for your career depends on what exactly you want to achieve from the course. It could be one of these things:

  1. Increasing your pay

  2. Switching industries 

  3. Aiming for a particular position at a particular company 

  4. gaining a holistic view of the organization

As much as this course will help you achieve the above goals, your past experience matters the most. The course can be a driving force in your career but not the main force. It will enhance your skills and personality and not change it. So it's best to keep your expectations from the course low and focus on yourself.

I have done part time MBA from IIM Lucknow (WMP), Is it okay to apply for PGPX courses at IIM A/B/C?

Sonal AgarahariIPM from Indian Institute of Management Rohtak (Expected 2024)

No, I wouldn’t recommend you apply for a PGPX course at IIM A B or C if you have completed a part-time MBA from IIM Lucknow. The reason is the huge overlap of electives in almost all the programs offered at IIMs. Leaving a few courses most of which are repeated in all the programs be it part-time or full-time.

Towards the end of the course, you might end up spending a hefty fee and lots of time and yet not learning anything new. If anything you might just get placed at a better firm. But that too will be useless if you are unable to harness the acquired knowledge and skills in the open market. The question is if your job will be worth your year lost, your lost opportunities, and 25-30 lakhs of loan.

Still, if you want to pursue the course go for a top MBA course abroad. That might make a difference in your resume and job prospects.
