Counted in the popular slang called BLACKI, IIM Indore is always a college that aspirants target for admission and has a great median salary of 24.50 LPA. However, being one of the top IIMs, it also has the toughest selection criteria from all other IIMs, making its admission process more difficult. In 2024, only 489 candidates were selected for the final admission out of 2,55,377 applicants, less than a handful of students from such a large pool of applicants with surely great academic performance, work experience, and brilliant CAT scores.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With only a few students cutting through the admission, the fierce competition underscores the life-changing opportunities this institute offers, making it a dream destination for MBA aspirants.
