Incredible Infrastructure, very good faculty and to top it off reasonably good placement statistics - which is genuine unlike other MBA colleges. Being under Krea University, the potential this college has should never be discounted. MBA aspirants do make sure that you consider this institute in your decision making.

The institute looks great in the outside.

The institute looks great in the outside.
But the institute lacks the basic fundamentals like a proper selection method. I know people with lot of arrears and less entrance scores being admitted into. It has a worst location and infrastructure, I also have heard that the placements are pathetic. They also change the selection process and eligibility criteria in the midway of the process.

Don't trust these reviews and blindly step inside. There are far better average Bschools than IFMR. If you have selected this institute, then I am very sorry to tell that this is the biggest mistake in your life.

MBA aspirants kindly avoid colleges of this stature and try to apply for atleast a decent Bschool.
