Ques. Is it preferable and possible to do a CFA along with an MBA in Finance if I take admission in IIM Bodh Gaya?

● Top Answer By Pragya Tripathi on 09 Feb 23

Ans. It is possible to pursue the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) certification in conjunction with an MBA degree from IIM Bodh Gaya, as well as other certifications such as Financial Risk Manager (FRM), Financial Modeling and Valuation Analyst (FMVA), Certified Business Continuity Analyst (CBCA), Certified Market Surveillance Analyst (CMSA), National Institute of Securities Markets (NISM), and National Stock Exchange's Certification in Financial Markets (NCFM). Whether or not it is preferable to pursue the CFA certification alongside an MBA in Finance is a matter of personal preference. Like other IIMs, IIM Bodh Gaya has a rigorous curriculum and pedagogy. If you are able to make time outside of committee and club activities and studies and are willing to sacrifice some sleep, pursuing these certifications can greatly enhance your resume and increase your marketability in the job market. However, it is also a high-risk, high-reward decision. Even if you do not pursue these certifications, IIM Bodh Gaya will still provide you with attractive job offers if you put in the effort.Read more
