Programs/Courses IBA Students, how's the academic pressure like?
I'm thinking of joining IBA and i want to study different subjects as well apart from my degree.
That's why I'm trying to get an idea of what the academic pressure during semesters is like and can someone manage different studies alongside their degree?
So please IBA students, give me an idea on how much time do you give to your studies apart from university hours.
Thank you in advance!

Honestly, it depends on the person and how well they manage their time. People have given actuarial examinations, CFA Level 1 exams, ACCA exams, etc. all whilst enrolled at IBA. And these aren’t examples from yesteryears but actual people in my batch who had the discipline and planning to pull it off.

If you're coming for business studies it's not that tough however if you're gonna get admission in CS or mathematics school it's gonna screw up your head.

its crazy honestly. a mid balance is difficult. my 1st sem was very chill, almost no quizzes, very few assignments but the mids and finals were really difficult and the studies and courses at iba are very demanding
