Time B School List
T.I.M.E. B-School Categorization attains great importance in terms of its utility to you. You must make sure that you pick the right b-school to give the right push to your budding career. With more than three thousand b-schools in India, the MBA scene is pretty crowded, a situation that can be both rewarding and confusing.
The quality of students on a b-school campus makes a considerable difference on account of the interaction that students have with their peers. A significant proportion of the learning at any good b-school happens outside the class and a fairly large part of this comes from peer learning. A great deal of learning at any b-school is on account of group activities such as assignments and projects. Hence, better the peers, richer is the learning experience.
