6 Important Tips to Ace Online MBA - The Future of MBA?

Due to COVID-19, there is a high probability that the MBA for incoming students will be online, at least for the first few months. For second-year MBA students, it's already confirmed.

We're stuck with the virtual mode of education, at least until there is a cure for COVID-19, and it's possible that virtual education might just continue even after that. So, what do we do? Either complain that “Online MBA will take away the essence of MBA” or master this new form of education and become pioneers of the future. If you choose the latter, then here are the 6 ways you can get the best of your MBA going online.

"Koshish Karne Walon Ki Kabhi Haar Nahi Hoti" From 85%ile In CAT 2018 To MDI Gurgaon

After having appeared for CAT 2018 and being extremely disappointed at my score (85.05 percentile) ,I tried cheering myself up settling for a mediocre college. I started feeding my mind that I must work hard in the institute itself and grab my dream job. But my dreams were too big to fit in this little box of compromise. Maa sat with me one day saw my tears rolling down and asked me ..”are you satisfied?” I did not want to make her sad and said yes. She gazed upon me ( a mother can see right through your soul). I burst out crying …”No maa… I am capable of a lot more .. I don’t want to settle.” She hugged me and said, “Why not give it another try . Vaise bhi tumhe pata hai na Koshish karne walon ki kabhi haar nahi hoti.” I was happy about the immense support from the family and was wary of the upcoming circumstances. I started to juggle my job and my CAT prep . I finally gained some ground around July and was able to handle things properly when she was called in for an urgent operation. Aghast I saw her on the OT bed and I can never forget the sight . I knew I had to handle the home now . The responsibilities more than doubled upon me . Right from cooking to cleaning ..managing a job and preparing for my dream.. I felt like the days passed in a blink. Tirelessly working since 4 a.m in the morning and crashing on bed at 10 in the night all for a fire burning inside me. I have to admit , I slept like a baby for those 3 months. I was managing on schedule preparations for the big day( CAT day 2019) and things were going well. I was so afraid of being stranded by the exam once again that I took NMAT as a safety net!
