Ankita Bhattacharya's Review on IIM Kozhikode
Placements and Internships
Summer internship is a matter of pure luck, conducted at a stage when most people are not even sure about what vertical they want to pursue as a career path. Eventually most people align themselves according to the field they intern in and the final placements are more encouraging and less uncertain, since a major chunk of students end up getting PPOs and most people become sure of what they want to get into.
Academics and Faculty
Quality of teaching is not as good as might be expected given the amount of fees we are paying. Subjects are good . Some of the proffessors are good but most of them are dissatisfactory as far as teaching skills are concerned. Examination and assignments continue to follow the same substandard cliched methodologies that kill the motivation to actually learn something.
