Why (Or Why Not) Should You Go For An MBA

The one question that CAT aspirants dread the most, coaching institutes emphasise on the most and B-Schools ask the most is ‘Why MBA?’ Not only is this a question with no tailor-made answer, but also this is a driving question: the direction in which your interview will head, and how it will head, depends a lot on how you answer it. Besides, as an adult making an important life decision, you ought to have an answer to this question for yourself, don’t you?

Are You MBA Ready Or Not?

When to go for an MBA is a critical decision for every aspirant. Every B-school has a set of basic criteria. Almost every school needs a bachelors` degree and a work experience is looked favourably.

But, what are those qualities that make one MBA ready or not? Here are some traits which every MBA aspirant should possess (also, this helps even in life, whether you are an MBA or not):

Why MBA And Why Not MBA As Answered By An XLRI Student

One of the most banal questions that plagues every MBA aspirant during this time of the year… The average aspirant would have undergone at least an hour long session with his/her mentor, trying to forge a suitable response to this question and its nuances. What follows is a period of non-stop verbal rote, in front of the mirror, window or any other reflective surface, as well as every chance available, be it on the bus home, a free moment at work, and finally, a perfected version of the answer is ready to be presented to the interviewers at mock interviews and B-School interviews alike.

Acing Your Next Interview - Tips By An IIM Bangalore Student

My mentee just got done with her interview at IIM Bangalore and she told me that Marketing was her cup of tea. Since I had to write something trending for this post, I thought to myself, well IIM interviews are happening and some gyaan on Marketing would be worth taking a shot at. But, as I started researching I realised, that InsideIIM.com already has enough number of Marketing stories swarming around.
