To compare two business schools objectively, it is important to consider more than just the numbers in placement reports. In addition to looking at the average CTC, it is also helpful to consider the median salary to get a better understanding of the context. It is possible that the average CTC may be significantly influenced by international offers or a small percentage of the batch securing high-paying jobs. When comparing the maximum and average packages offered, it is important to keep in mind that institutes often include international offers in these calculations.

In addition to the number of roles offered, it is important to consider the quality of the recruiters and brands. It may be helpful to look at the LinkedIn profiles of alumni to get a better understanding of the roles and companies that have been recruited from the school. It is also important to note that the same companies may be listed in the placement reports of different schools, but that does not necessarily mean that the roles and packages offered are the same.

Finally, it is important to remember that a business school education is about more than just placements, and what a student makes of their MBA experience is also important.

Studied M.B.A from Indian Institute of Management Ranchi (2020)

One of my sisters is currently studying in IIM Ranchi, and she personally recommends joining IIM Ranchi. However, she is quite biased because she personally chose IIM Ranchi instead of IIM Shillong. 

Following facts of IIM Ranchi might be helpful for the other students to make their decision as these facts are at the edge over IIM Shillong.

Academics

  • Both institutes are the leading in the field of management making it challenging to differentiate them considering the academic curriculum.
  • However, in the case of IIM Ranchi, the students here are mostly exposed to the best faculties, from the other reputed institutes like IIM C, IIM B, IIM I, IIML, NITIE and FMS.
  • Besides, IIM Ranchi collaborates with highly experienced people in this field.

Placements

The placement record of IIM Ranchi is better than IIM Shillong. The table below shows the statistics for both IIMs:

Criteria

9.75 - 14.76 lakh

Average CTC

Infrastructure

  • The hostel of IIM Ranchi is situated in the National Sports Housing Complex.
  • They are provided with single bedroom lodgings with attached bathrooms and balconies with friendly surroundings.
  • Students are mainly allotted to 3-4 rooms, which gives an experience of both living in a hostel as well as apartments.
  • Facilities like sports at the national stadium, namely Khelgaon Sports Complex, 2 minutes from the hostels are provided.

Separate HR Program

  • In this fact, IIM Ranchi is miles ahead of that of IIM Shillong or other IIMs in India.
  • IIM Ranchi is the only IIM, which has a separate HR Department.
  • The HRM Program has 4 batches of students presently, functioning in this same industry.
  • This separate HR department assists a hand over the prior graduates in the higher HR position.

Student Exchange

  • Students will get the opportunity to attend one full-time program at a foreign university by STEP.
  • They have collaborations with top universities abroad in France and the USA. 

Life at IIM Ranchi

  • Besides placement, academics, and the case competitions, the students here also get other opportunities.
  • Thus, they easily showcase their individual talents in learning things, in industry perspectives, considering their individual peer views.
  • Various events like AGON, FUTSAL, etc. are conducted.

However, there are no such differences between these two B-Schools. But considering the above facts, it can be stated that IIM Ranchi is the fastest-growing IIM among all. Besides, the locational advantages of IIM Ranchi over IIM Shillong enable the race far ahead rather than IIM Shillong.
