Tipani – IFMR Chennai Review
The total investment is on the higher side, the Return on Investment(ROI) can be realized in 2 to 3 years. The median package is healthy keeping the intake in mind, placing 180 students won’t be a real challenge for IFMR. One can definitely keep this institute as a backup option when compared to Great Lakes Chennai, IFIM Bangalore, LIBA, Welingkar, etc. IFMR is definitely better compared to IFIM Bangalore because of factors like intake and median package.
