Rashmi: As another former IIMA grad, i think these things correct themselves eventually. The first job out of campus placements does not always define your career. For instance, i know of people who gave up their dollar jobs after a couple of years and went back to marketing jobs (even NGOs) in india. Others from my batch have given up wall street jobs to do PhDs. Most decisions on campus are made in the absence of perfect information. Money is the most transparent benchmark for deciding, if you dont know what you are getting into. But people learn that its not the best benchmark for everyone, once they see the real world. In any case, no need to fix the system. I-schols (the toppers) arent creative people in any case, so no harm in them going to banking/consulting.. :)
