The Diversity Factor In B-school Admissions: Fickle Fad Or Novel Necessity?

Comments
 

Sandeep Kumar

I dont think diversity should be forced. The basic quality that a student in Bschool should have is quantitative aptitude along with good communication skills. I m myself a XLRI passout, found the handful of BSc or Bcom gards in my class were better than Btech grads in quants. So just beacuse someone is a Bcom or coz they r not Btech, they should not be given admission. CAT/XAT + GD + Interviews test those skills in a candidate so no extra bonus points or subjective points should be given to candidates. B.Tech is what most of the best students prefer after their 12th. There are few Bcom/BA/other non technology gards who are very good and they find no difficult in cracking these entrances. Girls getting undue advantage in entrance - though I feel its not fair, but even the Mps in parliment are not able deny reservation for women. So I cant blame Bschools :)
