Why Is MBA/PGDM Considered Underrated

India currently has 5500 B-Schools.

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.
