I used to think that I was alone in this… but I am not :)

UGC has listed out a bunch of names of management universities that are “fake”: http://www.ugc.ac.in/inside/fakealerts.html. It is not surprising to see IIPM’s name in that list. “Indian Institute of Planning & Management(IIPM),133/4,Qutab Enclave,Phase-II, New Delhi � 110 016.”

I always had a feeling that IIPM was all about Times Of India ads, and Arindham Chowdhary and his book “count your chickens before they hatch”. The articles below and the UGC website now seems to support this feeling. Every time I looked at their TOI ads, I always felt that they were very superficial (all-glamour-no-substance type). I really hope people stop thinking of IIPM as an option and look at the other “real” options available to them.
