The biggest buzzword while selecting B-Schools is “ROI”. But how does one define ROI? Is it just about the fee you pay versus the CTC you’re offered? Or is it also about the learning, networking, skill development, among others. What if I tell you that it’s completely for you to define the ROI of the two-year long MBA journey, in terms of what you learn and how much you earn. Several articles written in the past have talked at length about how can one make the most of the course from a learning perspective. Here’re some ways to earn while you’re at a B-School:
Mumbai, also known for its liveliness, depicts the place that is always up and the City of Dreams. I had never liked the city, in fact, I’m not sure I like it, even today. During my CAT preparation days, the mere thought of sky-scraping buildings, bustling local trains running across and the humongous population of the city gave me goosebumps. Because for a boy like me who comes from a very small city surrounded by coalfields & forests, whose entire population is half the population of Dharavi, I was always afraid that I’d be lost here. Lost in the sense, that I would never be able to leave an impact, the sheer magnanimity of the city shall devour me, and I’ll just be another drop trying to reach the shore of the Queen’s necklace. Call it my ambitions or a dare taken in a jiffy, I decided to go for NITIE Mumbai after my results were declared. I was pretty sure that Operations is the thing I wanted to do for the rest of my life, and if it even meant living in Mumbai for the next two years, I was ready to give it a shot. Because it’s not hard to decide what you want your life to be about, what’s hard, is figuring out what you’re willing to give up in order to do the things you really care about.
Education and learning are two important things that go hand in hand. Deciding to educate oneself and be updated about the current situations in society can be done at any age. MBA is one such degree that helps you not only to learn but also to gain knowledge. Whether you have work experience after your graduation degree or nothing at all, having a post-graduate diploma degree does help you to enhance your skill sets. B-Schools have part-time as well as full-time courses for aspirants who have the will to keep learning and they make sure that all of them get equal opportunities to explore and gain experiences.
CAT, the most important exam for the management aspirants, is a national level examination which happens once a year in November. It is not an exam of intelligence but of aptitude, what this means is that one needs to have skills of selection, pressure handling, and the ability to work harder than others, in addition to knowledge of Quantitative Aptitude, Verbal and Logical Reasoning & Data Interpretation. Every year it receives around two lakhs applications where the final success rate is very low, to say the least.

Located in the heart of the city Mumbai, KJ SIMSR is not just an educational institute. It’s a home to thousands of students from across the country coming together to achieve the best learning experience of their lives.
With the CAT exam being over and other MBA entrance exams queued up, the journey for MBA aspirants doesn’t get over here. Scoring in these competitive exams is the first stepping stone towards the goal of getting into the top B-Schools. Simultaneously, there is the need for the aspirants to start for the preparation of Group Discussions and Personal Interviews (GD/PI) to get admission in a B-School. Working in an IT firm with hectic schedules and many entrance exams for MBA in the queue, my routines were quite frantic. I had not started with preparations of GD/PI until I got a profile-based call from S P Jain, Mumbai. Entering into one of the best B-Schools, that is SPJIMR is a dream come true for an MBA aspirant. The call was made even before the CAT results were out.
