·
If you are planning to pursue MBA/PGDM or any 2 year full time management
programme, you must be getting Prospectus,
Calls, SMS, unwanted Email & attractive offers/invitation to join their institutes,
saying only good things about them, if every thing is so good about them why do
they need to call you again and again for admission process or for buying their
application form…
·
Don’t
get confuse with full page advertisements in various news papers & magazines, Rankings,
Hoardings, Attractive SMS, Calls, Emails, Free laptop, Free foreign tour &
more, before applying for any institute “Just Think”
Is it worth applying for this institute?
Is it suitable for you are your future?
IIM’s,
NIRMA, MICA, NMIMS, SP Jain, JL BAJAJ, XLRI, TAPMI, IMT, FORE, IMI,
ITM,
NL Dalmia, K.J Somaiya, SDM IMD, GIM, FMS
Why they don’t give
full page advertisement, about their domestic/foreign placements, Rankings,
Industrial exposure, invitations for buying their application forms.
·
If you are so good somehow people will
surely come to know that you are good, you do
not need to shout in media, yes I am, I am and I am.
·
Don’t
get confuse…! It’s you who need to decide which
institute is good or bad or suitable. Before
applying for any institute, collect all required information then only spend money on admission process (selling application form is one of the
business of Institutes & Coaching classes), required information is institute’s name, promoters, approval/affiliations, course name,
course contents, industrial relations, batch intake, summer/final placement
records, placement profiles, average placements, other campuses of the group,
available specialization, infrastructure, facilities, faculties (quality &
quantity), industrial exposure and more…
·
If
institute is suitable as per your preferred location, budget/paying capacity,
Academics, preferred specialization then only apply, one of
the most important thing is to see weather it is approved by AICTE (All India Council of Technical Education, New
Delhi)/UGC (University Grant Commission) or
not. If you have choice first
preference must be given for AICTE/UGC Approved Institute (helps in placements, Education loan,
approval & widely acceptable)
·
Do
not go for such institutes which are just study centers of XYZ University or running their courses in 2/3 BHK Flat or in an office/shop in malls
or offering part time, distance learning, correspondence courses (these courses are for working professionals
not for fresh candidates)
·
Before
following any one’s advise analyze
yourself (your academics, preferences, strength & your level) and the person or coaching institute or
consultant that you are planning to follow: who is he/she, what is the
background, what kind of knowledge/expertise that have, what is their core
business.
·
If
any coaching institute asks you to drop a year, think about it,
what kind of options is available now and what will happen if you would drop
this year. Especially when you can not
change your academics (like 10th & 12th %age), your
budget, location preference what maximum you can change is your entrance
exam score. If you “just missed top 25 institutes” (received a call
but could not convert or thrown out of GD-PI, or missed a GD-PI call just by 5%
to 7%) then only you should think for
investing one more year other wise don’t waste a year. If you scored just
45% or 50% or max 70% in entrance exam, stop
dreaming about top 25 Institutes and accept reality and look for next top 50
institutes which are suitable as per your preferences. Difference between
top 25 brands & next 25 brands is just 15% to 20% but it comes at a cost of one year (even that’s not
sure), ask yourself are you ready for
that?
·
Motivating to drop a year is a way of revenue generation for
coaching classes (coaching fees+ GD-PI preparation fees+ application form
selling and showing crowd to sponsors for seminars)
·
Do
not follow any such consultant who always asks about management quota,
that’s not the only way to get in Good Institutes, try through normal process
and if trying through management quota then see your return on investment (Total amount you need to pay and average
placement), for placements cross check with institute or students studying in
institutes.
·
It is also important to check the background of consultant, what he is
into, his/her core business, expertise, kind of institute they offers, his/her
own education and qualification, his/her
credit (make sure that you do not loose your money & opportunity/year)
“Find bad things about institutes
instead of finding good one”
Trust me its good for your health
and wealth
“Dikhave Pe Mat Jaao, Apni Akal lagaao”
Some institute says: we
do not need AICTE’s Approval as we
offers XXXXXXX Course and facilities, to keep this most flexible we have not
gone for AICTE Approval. Actually such institutes are not eligible for AICTE
Approval due to their infrastructure & Faculties most of such campuses are
running in Malls, flats, or on a floor of commercial complex and their
faculties are not experienced or at par with AICTE’s requirements.
Most of the rankings (paper media
& digital media) are governed by sponsors/promoters of
institutes: rankings must not be the only parameter to judge institute. AICTE,
UGC or any other government body do not gives any such ranking.
For getting proper information about
approvals visit official sites or AICTE (www.aicte.ernet.in, www.aicte-india.org), UGC (www.ugc.ac.in) or related authority’s official web site

Hmmm….. so planning for MBA/PGDM (2 year
management programme)
when it
comes to Institute selection, "MBA Aspirants (most dedicated and serious
candidates, who dropped last year because either available institutes were not
suitable for them or they were not suitable for remaining institutes), starts
hunting institutes without knowing their preference or priorities.
Mr. A
spend 12 long years in formal education and then 3 or 4 years in "college
masti" but masti and time pass is almost over now as his/her parents
wants them to pursue management career.
MBA
karna hai
.......Par Kaha se, kaise, konsa exam dena hai, kaha apply karna hai.
"kuch
pata nahi" even some of he/his friends dont know "kyu karna
hai"
Is it a Degree,
Status Symbol, High salaries, Life in Management Colleges, Because you
just want to stay out of HOME, Friends ne kiya to mujhe bhi karna
hai....
There must
be something in mind which keeps prompting you about Mission MBA or PGDM or
PGP (all are 2 year full time Management Programme)
Pursuing
MBA/PGDM/PGP (2 year full time management programme) is not just parking your
self for 2 years; it is investing 2 years for next 30-40 years, so there must
be a serious and proper mind set for "MBA Kyu Karna hai".
Once
"MBA Kyu" Concept is clear, your work is half done.....
Half
Done........................!
I am not kidding;
Yes you found this right "HALF DONE"
Because
now you just need to find which institutes are available which are suitable for
your need (MBA Kyu).
There are
3 types of courses available in India. One is MBA (UGC Approved) normally
through state level or deemed university, second is PGDM an autonomous
programme which is AICTE Approved; third one is PGP fully autonomous course
along with MBA UGC & DEC Approved (Distance Education Council)
MBA/PG
Aspirants must understand that weather Placements/Industrial exposure/leanings
are important or just a "degree", approvals are more important
or getting good exposure, Institutes giving full page advertisement in dailies
are good or Institutes are old but do not advertise are better and more.....
Best way
to get best available option is to know what your preferences are, analyze,
find 4-5 institutes as per your preference, visit, apply and finally opt one, but
don’t drop an year because no one knows what will happen next year, few more
institutes will come next year and you may not be interested in being an
article of experiment in first batch, competition will also increase, you may
or may not find better option but one thing is sure that you lost one year,
which is not going to come back (even better options (not in case of top 15
Institutes) can not compensate with frustration you will face in 365 days and
salary of one year in case of admission in above average institute)
So why to
Drop if you are average or just above average student, this may sound odd you
now you must realize that what you are good at and what you are bad at

Entrance Exams (CAT/MAT/State Level Exam)
What are the plans
for MBA Admission....Confused.......400+Institutes in MAT............150+
Institutes in CAT and 100+ in State Level Exam
Which One is better
for you................?
Let’s discuss the possibilities
Course Name is more important
or Group Associated with that Institute is more important.
Approvals are more
important or Placement records (for Old Institutes)/Placement Opportunities (new
Institutes).
Your Interested Specialization
is more important or any specialization in demand is good enough?
While selecting
Suitable Institute, Students are supposed to understand their requirement such
as "Why they want to pursue MBA"
- Placements, Industrial Exposure,
MDP's
- Degree
- Status Symbol
- Friends are doing so.......
- Well As you don’t have other options
- or "Chalo kuch Naya Karte
hai"
Decide first why do
you wants to go for MBA...........?
Don’t just
park your two year, spend for better career and opportunities...!
Then start looking
for options.... (Available options only) IIM’s are best but are u suitable for IIM’s,
Analalyze your self, understand the difference between Best options and suitable/available Options
Take a long breath
and analyze 10-12 lines written above. Surely it will help you.....?
Your
views and queries are invited.
