Why Is MBA/PGDM Considered Underrated

Why Is MBA/PGDM Considered Underrated

India currently has 5500 B-Schools. Considering the fact that B-School seats have tripled in the last five years it is an ambiguity to understand exactly what is happening to the management education sector in India since almost 340 B-Schools have closed down in the period 2014-2016. Low quality of education, lower quality of intake coupled with the economic slowdown has accounted for a whopping 43% decline in campus recruitment .93% of the MBA pass-outs are unemployable and barring the top rung institutions the national mean salary of management graduates is around Rs.10, 000 a month, claims a recent survey.
