The simple answer to your question as to why you should do an MBA from ISB is because it is one of the top Indian B Schools that has made its place in globally-acknowledged QS Rankings. It achieved this rank for its 1 year MBA program and surpassed top B Schools like IIM Calcutta. 

ISB Hyderabad MBA program has its own benefits and helps in uplifting your career tremendously. Given below are some major perks of pursuing an MBA from ISB

  • It helps you progress better than your peers and acquire the topmost position at your firm

Is anyone pursuing PGDBA course jointly conducted by IIM Calcutta, IIT Kharagpur, and ISI Kolkata? What is the scope of this new course?

KS
Kartik Sinha Posted On : December 12th, 2022
Studied at IIM Calcutta

PGDBA is now in its third year, and people are not only interested in it, but also competing fiercely for admission.

This course has a broad scope. Students learn a wide range of languages, tools, and models used in data science. In addition, one must work with real-world industry problems involving data sizes of up to Terabytes. To compute those massive data sets, the cloud would be required the majority of the time. Learning there is unlike anything you can imagine. There are no online MOOCs that can compare to what this course has to offer. The PGDBA syllabus is not fixed; it can change in response to industry and technological demands and trends. You can rest assured that you will be given the best technologies and equipment available, as well as managerial skills.

Do global top management consulting firms like McKinsey, BCG, Strategy& and Bain only hire from top MBA schools like IIMs, ISB, XLRI and FMS in India?

SD
Sekhar Dasgupta Posted On : February 25th, 2022
studied at Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad

It’s true that management consulting firms are finicky about the campuses they recruit from and even in top management schools these firms only interview the top 5-10% of the students. Though companies like McKinsey, BCG, etc. recruit from premier undergraduate colleges, for MBA they only hire from top-rated B-schools.

Can I get into FMS/XLRI/SP Jain without work experience?

AV
Ankita Verma Posted On : May 19th, 2021
Studied M.B.A Marketing, S. P. Jain Institute of Management and Research (2017)

Yes, you can get into the mentioned institutes without work experience. But this would not suffice what all you have to keep in mind before applying. Your academics and extracurricular activities will also be evaluated before selection.

I have friends who have applied/studied here, thus the following points are based on their experience: 

  • FMS: It depends on a good CAT score. To give an estimate, 99+ would be fine. There would be rounds after that in which you have to do well too. Nothing would be affected even if you don't have work experience. 
  • SPJIMR: The interview calls are carried out in two different stages- profile-based and score plus profile-based. They will check your performance in extra-curricular, work experience, and academic excellence. 85 percentile is a must in CAT/XAT and a score of 650 in GMAT should suffice. 
  • XLRI: You can expect a call from XLRI if you have overall performed well by clearing all your cutoffs. Be it sectional or overall.

You must try and do some online courses or internships as per your interest. Any experience with a startup or NGO can also be considered.

SB
Sylvia Basu Posted On : January 13th, 2022

What is the scope of doing an MBA from IGNOU? Is it acceptable by MNCs?

AA
Aman Arora Posted On : October 21st, 2022
MS from Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) (Graduated-2016)

IGNOU is recognised by AICTE and is run by the central government. So if you are looking for a government job then it’s not an issue. Also, IGNOU is better than many small universities like SMU (Sikkim Manipal University).

IGNOU is the best option if you are tight on budget or you prefer learning while earning. 

MNCs prefer a formal education of 15 years. For additional education, you can go for IGNOU. But if your Bachelor's Degree is also from IGNOU then this might be a problem at the time of employment.

It’s important to note that at the time of employment regular colleges are always given more preference than distance education. So it’s recommended you pursue MBA from a regular college. Let IGNOU be the last choice under special circumstances such as a tight budget or preferring distance learning due to personal reasons.

What is the placement scenario and scope of the IIM PGP Agri Business Management (ABM) program in general and with special reference to IIM Lucknow?

AS
Ashish Singh Posted On : February 8th, 2024
Studied at IIM Lucknow

It depends on the other options available to you. ABM graduates are eligible for many of the marketing and operations jobs that normal PGP students are. Choosing an ABM at any of the top IIMs (including IIM Lucknow) is a better option than a general MBA from a tier 2 business school. Even if you take a drop for CAT, it will be a waste of your year. In an MBA, your college tag makes a big difference. In the long run, the IIM tag will benefit your corporate career a lot.
