Plz guide for GMAT n MBA abroad..
Hi,Fri May 29, 2009 06:56 AM I did my Bachelors in Engineering (Production) from India in 2004 and have been into my family business of manufacturing agro-products for the last 5 years. Now, I want a career shift/ change by going for an MBA abroad. Please guide... 1. When should I appear for GMAT to apply for various 1-year full time programs abroad at the earliest? 2. Will going for such 1-yr MBA be helpful in getting me a well-paid job? 3. How much time is needed to prepare for the GMAT as i have to start from the scratch (if i give full time to it)? 4. Is professional work-experience a problem for me, as i have been into my family business only? Kindly reply.. Thanks Regards, Varun [Edited by varun_pec on 29 May 2009] |

hi,Fri May 29, 2009 08:27 PM i think that the earlier you apply the better considering u are not something extraordinary.This way it is possible that some bschools will also grant you a scholarship and maybe pay less. 1.I would start as soon as possible given that u are ready mentally and have a positive attitude towards the test. 2.I think that it should not be your primary goal...sure everybody wants it,loads of it, me too,but i personally think that when u go for it it never comes...instead focus on the experience u will get and that an MBA is something u will like..I think if you are worthy money will come anyway with or without MBA...ok maybe with an MBA just a bit easier.... 3.I think that 2 months are sufficient so long as u prepare well enough.Although some say that they have given it in less than a month. 4.i dont think it will be a problem.Of course u will have to show them that u really did sth, and i think that if u have it will show....oh,u can get a reference from a supplier or costumer or sth.... Best luck!! |
