IIT is winning
1In my opinion IIt's are best because in it students have more practical knowledge as compared to IIM's.
1yeah guruji is right...an IIM grad even without IIT degree but with good marks earns big money! [4]
1Arre...its the first 3 days of recruitment @ bombay that has avg. 10 lacs. By the end of season, it will come down to 6.5 something.
And definitely IIM-A dnt have avg pckge of 9.5. The article is wrong there. It is closer to 12.5.
BTW, wat is the point discussing it? Definitely a post grad student, with a MBA degree, that too from IIM, will surely get a fatter package.
1@Sneha ....IITs dont have a average package of 10 lakh...and IIM cany be at 9.5...few students get these...in IIT but not so many...and Btech college can get a bigger pay than a B-school
(that too IIMs [3][3])
1It has just become a trend..and as we know we are trendy..just do what our seniors did..
39Even my dad keeps saying MBA after engg...dunno. I wanna do CS, so I guess it should be good doing MBA after it...increases marketability?
1180% of the iitians go for entrances for management studies like CAT and MBA after completing iit colleges and the main reason for this is that they are brainwashed too much by their professors and counsellors . They choose money over self interests.
1i share similar thoughts with RPF and SNEHA..... I think we should pursue a course which interests us.. and not in which u get a fat package!!
1there are three 'I's in one big "I". the big I being INDIA and other I's being IIT, IIM nd IAS
so definietly its deadly combination
33I dont think for an MBA degree there is advantage for engineers..
One passing from an IIT has sufficient management skills.. so theres a great advantage... just don't go by the movie guys... :D
1IIT + IIMS make no sense..i mean any deadly combo..I dont think for an MBA degree there is advantage for engineers..This is my personal view though..
1iit + iim is really deadly................but in my col. theres a guy...................who did engg in local ..but A grade coll by mhcet .....but then got to IIM c.............and is in Shanghai....some MNC!!!!!!!earning dollars!!!!!!!!!!!
1iitians + iimians = deadly package !
but i dont understand why da hell iitians write CAT ?
then y did they join iit ?

With the economy on the recovery path, Indian Institute of Management Calcutta (IIM-C) has recorded a 20 per cent increase in salaries this year. While the highest international annual salary offered this year was Rs 1.6 crore, the highest domestic salary touched Rs 75 lakh. The average salary offered touched Rs 15.32 lakh.
About 110 companies turned up for placements this year, including laterals, compared with 87 last year. A total of 310 offers were made during the placements this year (including finals, laterals and pre-placement offers), compared to 269 offers last year.
International offers were made to 17 students, mostly in the financial and banking sector. The highest international offer made this year was of Rs 1.6 crore. Prafulla Agnihotri, chairman (placements), IIM-C, said: “It is true that the highest international offer touched Rs 1.6 crore, but there are a lot of clauses involved, like bonuses, among other factors. We do not get to know of these things, so it is best not to comment.â€
Around 280 students were up for placements this year. The batch of 2010 had 65 per cent students with prior work experience. Among them, 12 per cent of the students had experience of more than 36 months.
The major recruiters this year in the financial sector were YES Bank and ICICI Bank. YES Bank made 13 offers, while ICICI Bank made 10. American Express hired six students for diverse profiles, like business transformation, international risk management and for American Express Banking Corporation India.
Around 27 per cent of the students took up consulting offers. Accenture Business Consulting made the most number of offers in the consulting space, with a total of 15 offers across six different roles, of which 11 were made during final placements and four during lateral placements. Cognizant Business Consulting made 14 offers to students during the laterals. Oliver Wyman recruited exclusively from IIM-C for its offices in London, New York, Dubai, Singapore and Mumbai and made a total of five offers.
Marketing profiles were chosen by 18 per cent of the students. Hindustan Unilever made five offers, Procter and Gamble made four and Nokia three (all including pre-placement offers). Johnson and Johnson made four offers this year!
