iimHQ Research Desk

Evidence & fact-check

The Research Desk supports Anchal’s reviews by checking fees, placements, cutoffs, and ranking citations against primary sources before scores and verdicts go live. It does not replace editorial judgment; it keeps the evidence trail clean.

What we verify

  • Fee circulars and programme cost lines against institute admissions pages
  • Placement medians, averages, and definition labels (MEP / fixed cash / CTC) against audited reports
  • NIRF and other brand signals as cited, without treating rank tables as a substitute for judgment
  • Internal links, compare/guide intent splits, and score-framework consistency
