Why A Fresher Should Avoid MBA? - Niteen Bali, IIM Calcutta

Why A Fresher Should Avoid MBA? - Niteen Bali, IIM Calcutta

My low grade in engineering was the reason I ended up at IIM Calcutta. Yes, you read it right. In the first place, IIMC owing to its bohemian culture does not place any significance on graduation score. Secondly,  I wanted to work for 2 years and then figure out whether to go for an MBA or do Masters abroad. But I was in a precarious situation – I didn't get through the companies I wished to work for, because of my low grades. I was sure that if I did an MBA it had to be from a top school. IIMC ended up being my only option. Anyway, I do not have many regrets since I just go with the flow. I guess life is what happens when you are busy planning something else. Well, there are quite a few reasons why a ‘facha’ (the fresher breed is condescendingly called) should not opt to join B-School right after graduation, leaving aside the fact that conventionally business education in western countries is made eligible to only people with work experience.
