Easwaran Iyer, Dean of the Jain University School of Business, wanted to make sure that the right students were entering his Master of Business Administration (MBA) program, but was unsure what parameters could be used to identify the right ones. students who were ideal for the MBA program. Jain University received applications for the MBA program from all over India and accepts approximately 400 students each year. The number of applications received by Jain University had grown steadily over the years. Placement performance played an important role in attracting high-quality students to the MBA program in India. In 2012, more than 180 business schools were closed in major cities such as Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Ahmedabad, Kolkata, Lucknow, and Dehradun. While there could be many reasons for its closure, its inability to broadcast to its students played a key role. At the beginning of each admissions season, which began in April and lasted until July, Iyer vetted applicants for admission thoroughly and, together with her admissions committee, decided which applicants would be admitted or rejected. Selecting a student who cannot be placed would not be penalized, but would put great pressure on the reputation of the institute. Ultimately, a wrong choice could lead to an increase in the number of unplaced students and a decrease in the average salary. In addition, there was the possibility of rejecting a classified candidate. What made Iyer’s work difficult was that he was expected to increase the size of the batches while increasing the quality of the admitted students. She recognized that MBA admissions require many more analytical arguments, taking into account multiple criteria.
