The MBA Entrepreneur - Your Idea, Your Business

Entrepreneurship in this day and age is the catalyst for Innovation. Elon Musk is an example of prodigy who required no Education to succeed with his mind-boggling ventures. There are success stories in the past like Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates who own the biggest corporate and yet hire MBA personnel if needed as well. MBA founded talents who have earmarked change are often less heard of and yet there are few who brought laurels. Holding an MBA can be stereotyped as doing more harm than good in the entrepreneurial circles.

When IIT-Bombay Started Getting Known More For Its Management

The first day that I entered the haloed gates of IIT Bombay, it took me minutes to get over my surprise. In the midst of a sunny crowded bustling city of Mumbai, this green and breezy campus felt like an oasis. Well, that was not all. I had my interview at SJMSOM in the first week of March. The culture of the college was the first striking feature that struck me when I had started receiving emails for the admissions process. Such meticulous and informative emails! They even sent us preparatory material before the interview. In no other process, I had seen such attention to details.

Everything is impossible until it’s done. And everything seems easy when it has been done. There is a lot of enigma that surrounds IIM Interviews and GDs (now WAT in most IIMs).
