Ideally, we do not suggest a candidate to join either of these colleges, unless it is very necessary to join MBA this year itself.

However, depending on the profiles and companies visiting both these institutes, we have the following interest based suggestions on which college to join for which specialization.

Want to build a career in Marketing? Join FORE
Want to build a career in Finance? – Join LBSIM
Want to build a career in Consulting (Front end consulting generally not offered at either)? – Join FORE
Want to build a career in IT/ITeS? Join LBSIM
Not sure of any specialization? Join LBSIM
