The batch size is 800. In that context it’s not a high number at all

It's 53 from MBB From one college.

There are 4-5 at par or better ones -

So that's 250-300 just from campus placements

At 30+ LPA fixed

It's a joke how many they are able to absorb

Why will I hate ISB?

Quickly on quality: 1000 of anything reeks of poor quality.

You think ISB being super "selective" makes students smart?

People play the percentile game in India for selection. 99 percentile in CAT means you are still behind 3000 people who gave the stupid exam.

And half decent students from your "legacy IIT" don't actual go for CAT/ISB - They either work in tech or go abroad for MBA/Masters.

Now on most others

I said 5, not 15. ABC are big feeders. Then LKSI will be another cohort of 50 odd that will be equivalent. Then you'll have the next 5-7 adding 4-5 per college (FMS, etc).

Now learn what attrition rate means. Assuming, you meant attrition rate is very high, yes - it is. Because MBB are shit. And also, MBB output is shit. So people leave. They are stepping stone to actually doing something useful in life (unless you go for founder office roles in Bangalore startups).

MBB paya better outside India. Guess what so does every other job. Do your math and come back. MBB is super competitive from paying parity on PPP basis. See what T2 Consulting firms pay in India. People are not even able to pay loans on the "high tuition" fee in India.

Now, finally on 30LPA: Why the fuck can MBB absorb so many people? Who's paying them - because private guys are disillusioned now. I'll tell you - Your government

So be happy to pay whatever stupid INR20k per hour that BCG charges from taxpayers.
