    1.1 Satisfaction

    In general satisfaction is a persons feelings pleasure or disappointment

    resulting from comparing a products perceived performance in relation to his

    or her expectations.AS the definition makes clear satisfaction is a function of

    perceived performance and expectations. If the performance falls short of

    expectations the consumer is dissatisfied. If performance matches the

    expectations the consumer is satisfied. If the performance exceeds the

    expectations, the customer is highly satisfied

    1.2 Significance

    There has been significant difference between the intake process

    for the MBA Hons. batch 2009-2011 and MBA Hons. batch 2010-

    2012.

    Intake of 2009-2011 batch was through a separate test conducted

    by the institute, and thus the batch availed the advantage of

    admission of only those who willingly applied for the course.

    But the very next year, the intake process of all the courses, MBA

    General, Hons. & BE were through a common written test, where a

    final merit list was prepared and thus the candidates were given

    chance accordingly.

    Since, MBA (G) has been the course being taught in IMSAR from

    a very long time, the students first preference was this only. And

    thus, in spite of being a respectable course, the aspirantsoverlooked MBA Hons. Same happened with BE course. But

    being the self financed course and carrying the badge of Hons., the

    treatment was quite indigestible.

    There could have been several reasons behind this matter.

    Thus, the study endeavors to:

    Understand the students preferences in a better way and tounderstand their attitude towards the course on completion of

    1 year (individual factors).

    INTERPRETETION

    65% agree that the institute, the course, and the individuals are satisfied

    with the way the things are going and the way they expected them to be.

    They think that all the 3 components (students, institute & course) are

    making a good match.

    While 18% of the respondents who considered individual factors were

    found dissatisfied as the expectations were not appropriately met in the

    due course.

    On the contrary, the level of dissatisfaction among students taking

    their personal part presented following data:

    16 students agreed switching over the course (if provided a chance, 8

    students ready) or joining outside (if available at same fee, 8 students

    would join).

    INTERPRETETION

    35% are dissatisfied with the institutes efforts and as much as 21% feel

    indifferent of it. It means students visiting IMSAR are either getting very

    low return in terms of what they expect from a management institute.

    56% in total are not showing a positive response what shows the

    effectiveness of some institute. The students are either getting a negative

    impression, or they are not expecting any support from the institute.

    INTERPRETETION

    31% are agreeing that the course has been effective in satisfying the students

    and has lived up to the reputation.

    On the contrary, 43% of the students are feeling dissatisfied and thus

    the majority of students dont think that the course is serving in

    accordance to its name.

    Considering responses of how many did willfully opted to enter MBA

    Hons., 18 students agree, while 6 disagree (out of total 32, 8 were

    indifferent). Thus it can be drawn that due to lack of proper attention paid to

    the course, the students are getting negative returns in context of what they

    expected.
