8 Actual Reasons Why People Do MBA And 8 Reasons Why You Should Do An MBA

When you are preparing for the MBA interviews the question that you spend the most time on is definitely “Why MBA?” and everyone comes up with his/her version of the politically correct answer but all of them are on similar lines – knowledge, networking, career opportunities, brand etc. But when you finally make it to one of the top B-schools of the country, you realise that you were not alone in not knowing a thing about the fancy terms you said in the interview. People may have their own reasons for doing MBA but everyone one truly deserve it because an important thing in MBA is to throw a lot of fancy terms and jargons so that you sound learned. I will try and list the politically incorrect but real reasons which people can’t give in their interviews.

Hearsay vs Experience: My MBA Journey So Far

When I started on my quest to obtain an MBA degree for myself, I spoke with a lot of alumni about what exactly an MBA exam entails, how much of work does one need to do in order to get through one of those ‘oh-so-good-to–be-true colleges’ and also, what is your takeaway from this course, i.e. what is this god-level stuff that the stern-looking profs teach in the under-furnished looking buildings that turns these somewhat above average students (and a few exceptionally bright students like me and you :p) into money churning machines.
