A night of confusion !!!

My previous posts should tell you the confusion.
I got admits from IIM Lucknow Noida campus executive MBA program ( IPMX) and from ISB Hyderabad.

Last day to submit acceptance fee at IPMX was 10th and so was the result date of ISB R2. I got an extension in IPMX as my couier was misplaced. Luckily I had the xerox of the DD which helped me convince the IPMX Adcom for the extension in deadline.

Here are the factors which helped me make the decision

1) Batch Size - IPMX 50 ISB 560
2) Infrastructure ISB way ahead of IPMX
3) Stability - IPM 2nd batch ISB 8th batch
4) Pedagogy - IPMX ( IIM Profs ) ISB (Global fculty)
5) Fee + expenses - IPMX INR 15L and ISB INR 21L
6) Frens advice - unanimously ISB
7) Placement ISB usually has a great record and this year approx 1/3rd hv been placed. IPMX batch 1 is still struggling.

I got holy mail from ISB at abt 6:45 PM and slept at 1:00 AM and in between my mind was facing juggernauts of thoughts.

And the verdict is

INDIAN SCHOOL OF BUSINESS !!!!!
