I wanted to pursue MBA in marketing, I was very clear about this. So I checked the placements report, the faculty, marketing placements, learnings, and course structure. The hostel and college being in the same place make it a very cordial and learning environment. "

Trisha Singh: “So I missed many colleges by a very few marks and in some cases in decimal marks. I recall my IIFT entrance where I missed clearing the exam by 0.35 because I had not timed the exam well because of which I couldn't attempt more questions in the data interpretation section. I cleared the overall cut-off but couldn't clear the sectional cut-off. always time your exam and have a strategy for clearing it.”
