Remarks:

Major factor was placements. Campus is nice and beautiful but the rules are very strict. Faculty is good especially for trade. Mess food is average. College is located on the outskirts of Kolkata but is well connected.

Remarks:

The reason I chose this college is because of the brand value it carries, its placements as well as its top-class faculty. Yes, we had to take a written test for IIFT then the shortlisting happens on various criteria after that the people will be called for the extempore and interview. The cut-off changes every year. The college calculates the composite score based on the academic background 10,12 marks and special points were given to girls for gender diversity. This is mainly for 1st shortlisting which is for an interview. Then again a composite score is calculated based on the work experience, extempore, and group discussion performance. Thereafter the final shortlist is released for the campuses. Currently, IIFT has scrapped the IIFT exam and the intake is through CAT. I prepared by going through all the current news and also enrolled for a CAT coaching that helped me crack the Entrance as well as the interview.
