1) Is it a top-notch B-school? Ans: No, its not. It is a nice B-school but doesn't come close to top 20 at least. It can be ranked close to 30th.
2)What is the value of a degree from Amity Institute in the job market? Ans: The value is better than many other C Grade colleges. But, as is evident, doesn't come in the top 20. Awareness about the existance of the college is good but not about the quality.
3)Do they have job placements on campus? Ans; Yes, they have placements in campus but the same is not vary attractive. If you are a good student,you can get a CTC close to Rs. 300000pa. Its not very attractive,specially, if you consider the cost involved (Its huge). You should go there only if you don't have a choice.
4)How expensive would it be to study here? Ans; As i have told you earlier, the cost involved is huge and returns are not great. You might end up spending 6-7 lakh in two years.
5)Would you recommend that he do his degree from here or would you suggest another B-school? Ans: I won't recommend him to join amity. He can join colleges like IIM, Spjain, Nirma, IIT, FMS, etc.

Satya every year many magazines like Business India and sites like Rediff bring you the Ratings among B-schools. To a some extent these ratings do give you a eye opener on the Top notch MBA schools.Amity might end up coming in the top 100 business schools in India. Now Questions to you why do you want join an MBA now, Do you have any work experience, what specialization do you want to take ?In my experience I see so many Fresh pass outs from Colleges try to get an MBA without any reasons they write CAT,SAT,BAT and end up ultimately falling on a MAT.First thing to do is to get some work experience for say 2/3 years then trying to prioritising your specializations say Marketing, Info Systems Etc.Then deciding on the Tests you might decide to write say GMAT.Why keep worrying about doing an MBA in India. Once you work for a few years with a few saving and some load you could study in the Top 100 Business schools in the world and now a days there are many scholarships covering them.Why settle for conservatively an Avg Business school when you can go places in this world

Dear Prabhu,
I am very sorry to say but you lack knowledge as well as information. If you want to say that Nirma's placement record is as good as amity's then i think you need to visit a doctor.
Well, i will tell you some facts (you can check it). This year(2006), average salary at Nirma has been 5.28 Lakh per annum and mind you this is not inflated. Some of the companies which particpated were: JP Morgan Chase, Citibank, Citigroup, Eicher, british gas, Seimens, Icici bank etc. In fact JP Morgan Chase gave a package of approximetly 9 lakh Pa. I think these are dreams of students are Amity. You should compare Apple to Apple.
Talking about faculties, Nirma has got the best of the faculties in India. Also, The infrastructure is econd to none. People at Amity can only dream about such things.
Hence, i would request you to abstain from making comeents in topics where your knowledge is limited such as this. I hope you follow this.

Dear Tapan,
Never shoot a gun without checking wheather you have bullets in it or not? I mean, read the comment carefully, the article above never ever talked about the BBA programme. It talked only about the MBA one.
Also, checkout the articles below, you will find most of them against amity.
Also, i was myself selected by Amity but i refused them. You know what, students of amity only asked me to do that.
AGAIN I WOULD LIKE TO SPECIFY:
AMITY IS A NICE COLLEGE BUT IS NOT WORTH THE MONEY IT ASKS FOR
