8/10
There are no options for internship as this is just a 1 year course. however, there are plenty of job opportunities over here. There are many top consulting companies come here for recruitment.
FEES AND SCHOLARSHIP
6/10
College fee is quite steep. (INR 25l for a year). The scholarship options are available to only a very select few (~20 students out of 800). They are given on the basis of the past academic achievements and any other exceptional spike in the profile.
FOREIGN EXCHANGE & INTERNATIONAL EXPOSURE
6/10
The international exchange program is a great opportunity to study for 4 months in the best b-schools of the globe. However, getting into a exchange program is based on a lucky draw. However, there are few international students who come over here to study.
ACADEMICS & FACULTY
10/10
Acedmics are pretty hectic but curriculum is designed in a very structured way. It is still tough to believe how so much of learning is happening in such a short span of time (each term is just 1 month long and we are taught 4 subjects)

ISB has a vibrant student life with parties around the year. There are several student body initiated parties throughout the year and official large-scale events such as Solstice and Equinox, for which alumni of all previous year come back.

The professional club scene in ISB is buzzing, with student-led clubs for every area including Consulting, Marketing, Media, Public Policy etc. These clubs conduct engaging and informative events for the student body.
HOSTELS & FOOD

There are food options including an all-day canteen, Subway, Country Oven cafe and Di Bella cafe. The choice of food options is good and quality is great. Maids are also available on campus to cook lunches and dinners.
INFRASTRUCTURE & TRANSPORTATION
10/10
The type of infrastructure available at ISB is unseen in almost any university across the world. The living facilities are comparable with world class hotels. The living quarters are spacious and housekeeping is provided to ensure students can relax and concentrate on work.  The recreational facilities are great, with well maintained tennis, basketball and badminton courts, swimming pool, gym, yoga rooms etc. The campus itself is in a lush location and taken care of well.
PLACEMENTS & ALUMNI NETWORK
10/10
The quality and quantity of companies that come to ISB for placements is unparallelled. Top companies from across all sectors come to campus every year. Top recruiters include HUL, McKinsey, BCG, Deloitte, Amazon and many more. The average salary of the previous batch that was placed was Rs 19 Lk.  The size and reach of the ISB alumni network is vast. It is common to find ISB alumni at top levels in almost every industry-leading company.
FEES AND SCHOLARSHIP
10/10
Bank loans covering expenses for ISB are easy to obtain and relatively hassle-free. Many reputed banks offer special loans for ISB specifically. The school also offers many need-based and merit-based scholarships.
FOREIGN EXCHANGE & INTERNATIONAL EXPOSURE
9/10
The international exposure that ISB has is exceptional within Indian universities. The international exchange programme offers a list of top notch universities around the world, including some of the leading B-schools like Wharton, Tuck and London School of Business.   
ACADEMICS & FACULTY
10/10
The variety of professors available to the class is extraordinary. ISB has a good mix of resident professors and visiting experts from the best B-schools around the world. The professors are always available to help on external project the students are working on, including competitions, cases and projects. The ELP (Experiential Learning Programme) system is wonderful as it allows you to experience working with a real client while continuing studies at the same time. The classes offered are relevant and thorough, with a high level of effort expected for each course. The speed and intensity with which the courses are conducted are an excellent preparation for real-world high-pressure situations. Testing is frequent, with exams every two weeks and multiple assignments and quizzes in between. This helps keep a good check on progress and learning.

SOCIAL ATMOSPHERE
10/10
Gender ratio M:W 7:3.  Ranks very very high on diversity -- with people coming in from all over the world and from across industries. We have a spiritual healer, a record label owner, a board member of an angel fund, a guy who owns his own adventure sports company etc. It's very difficult to n fact find 'normal' people here - each one has something awfully unconventional about them.  Alcohol allowed - the best thing about ISB is that the school treats you like adults. No restrictions at all. Parties are the norm every weekend. We work really hard, party a lot harder. ISB is situated in the city - so bars, pubs, restaurants galore!
CLUBS & ASSOCIATIONS
10/10
ISB has probably the most active student social life - compared to all other global Bschool programs. It's 4-day week gives students the time to pursue all other interests.  More than 35 social and professional clubs who have P2P sessions, networking sessions every week. 
HOSTELS & FOOD
10/10
Mandatory on campus accommodation, rated the best in the world for housing.  House keeping is available 24/7 for absolutely anything.  Cooks are available on hire.  We also have our very own dam. Yes, a dam.
INFRASTRUCTURE & TRANSPORTATION
10/10
Excellent. On par with global standards, maybe even better.  It's like a 5-star hotel with everything you can imagine in it - grounds for all sports - indoor & outdoor, movie room, yoga room & classes, a jam studio, amphitheatre, salons, an executive bar, swimming pool, pool table, snooker table etc.
FEES AND SCHOLARSHIP
10/10
Bank loans available aplenty at nominal rates; ISB has one of the best ROI's in the whole world.  Very less scholarships - most students on campus have loans. 
FOREIGN EXCHANGE & INTERNATIONAL EXPOSURE
6/10
Very limited international exposure, less than 2% of class is of international origin. Large number of Indian Americans & English people.  Every year about 100 people travel abroad for exchange program out of a class of 800 approx., selection purely on basis of bidding points! The strategy you play with matters more than the grade! It's hard core game theory. Several languages spoken on campus; foreign language classes take place every weekend Average cost of the international exchange is 3-6lacs INR.
ACADEMICS & FACULTY
10/10
Excellent courses, diverse set of professors with about 80% faculty from out of India Excellent method of teaching - the case method Very systematic program, managed exceptionally well, tests every 3 weeks, assignments every day Professors are always accessible fror anything!
