The author of one of the best articles of 2016, Kishan NR, from IIM Kozhikode, decided to share his thoughts again with Noel Roychoudhury, this time about one of the most talked about issues of life, in general.
“After passing MBBS or B.Tech, students get the tag of a Doctor or an Engineer but you get none. You won’t be called a manager just after passing out of a B-School. MBA is a gas and it solely depends on how much space you wish to occupy into”. I still remember these words said by Prof. T.K Chatterjee during the induction days.

This question is for those who are preparing for all kinds of management entrance examinations – CAT, MAT, GMAT, or any of those similar acronyms. As you are nearing the end of your graduation, you must be probably thinking, “Now what?” For most of you, going for a master’s degree is a right option, and what is more lucrative than an MBA degree?
