WHY TO OPT MBA?

"Want to be an MBA ?" This is probably one of the most hackneyed and trite comments that the graduating youth of recent times come to face. Graduates today want to be an MBA, but have little idea what a manager really does.

Most students are attracted to management education at top business schools because of the high pay packages they get at the end of it. Sure, it is a brilliant career to pursue, but if your ultimate aim is to stuff your pockets, you might just cut a sorry figure in your future life or, for that matter, even in your Group Discussions or your Personal interviews.

Do you have a goal? Many students who make it to the best B-Schools do have a purpose or a firm goal. You will be astonished to know that every year, about six to eight percent of the graduating managers from top B-Schools join startup enterprises because of the tremendous learning opportunities that startups provide. Almost an equal percentage of students join NGOs or social service organisations. If you know your goal, the two year period at a B-School becomes a path to your objective and your learning is more focused.

CAT: Some notions All of us have heard that CAT is a test of Quantitative ability and Verbal ability. You can't really blame students for thinking so. This is because institutes inject this thought into their minds. Moreover, students believe CAT is all about 75 questions, divided into three sections to be tackled in 150 minutes. Often, we come across examples of class toppers performing badly in CAT, while an average student in the same class would crack CAT.

This puts forth a few questions:

1. Are B-Schools actually looking for your Quantitative and Verbal skills in the written CAT ?
2. Are B-Schools looking for your communication skills in GDs and interviews?

If your answer to these questions is yes, it is time you snap out of your hallucination and face reality. Most test preparatory institutes prepare you for Quantitative and Verbal skills, but forget to put an element of stress that forms the basis of written CAT

CAT -- A few home truths For most students, GDs and interviews mean preparation of certain macro topics and self-awareness issues. But interviewers want to know the core of your business acumen. GDs and interviews preparation is not a 10 to 12 session programme, but a year-long process. They are more about sharpening your business acumen. There are topics such as

• Do you know something about impact of China's deliberate slowdown, on Indian economy?
• Why does the Indian prime minister give top billing to infrastructure?
• What are your thoughts on the consolidation in the Indian telecom sector?

If you have an idea of the above, your preparation has direction. If not, you probably are so engrossed in your Mathematics and English that you are ignoring the real aspects of CAT preparation

MBA: Some facts -Just having an MBA degree will not help you. Dig into the reason why you want to do an MBA. Discover your core skills.

• If you are good at creativity and have an aptitude for advertising, an advertising school is a better option for you than a B-School.
• Don't get bogged down with the fat pay packages. Salary packages are just a direct function of economic growth. If in a particular year, there is an upward economic swing, salary packages will shoot up. In a year of recession, even the best B-Schools in India find it tough to place their students. Look at the placement scenario this year. The IT and ITES companies led the fray, followed by finance companies. Old economy companies were almost out of the reckoning. This tells us the economic growth pattern in the years to come.

Steps to become an MBA Remember, an MBA is a medium to reach your destination. It is not the destination. The following points might help you build a strong foundation to your management career:

• Set a goal for yourself.
• Introspect and find out your flair.
• Shortlist the B-Schools and the areas of specialization, based on your flair.
• Start reading about management so as to get an edge over others.
• Know how to prepare for CAT. CAT is not only about Mathematics and Verbal skills.
• Introduce an element of stress and uncertainty at each and every step of your preparation deliberately.
• Learn to relax at the end of the day.

All the best for your CAT preparation and examination!

MBA ADMISSION PROCEDURE

MBA is a test of your attitude, aptitude and approach. The right combination of these three is a must to get through. Prowess- the most comprehensive program for MBA preparation.

What is the selection procedure?

Stage 1:

The Written Test - Most institutes conduct their Written Tests between November and January. The written tests, inter alia, include the following:

• Quantitative Skills:- This section of an MBA written examination tests skill levels of aspirants upto Higher secondary school mathematics. The favourite topics for the paper setter in quantitative section include.
• Arithmetic (Number Theory, Ratio and Proportion, TSD, Percentages, Partnerships, Mixtures and Alligations etc.
• Geometry: - Lines and Angles, Triangles, Circles, Co-Ordinate Geometry etc.
• Algebra :- Quadratic equations, Functions
• Probability, Permutations and Combinations
• Set theory, Trigonometry, Stock and Shares etc.
• Verbal Ability: - This section includes Grammar, English usage, Reading comprehension, Vocabulary and other aspects of English language
• General and Business Awareness: - It includes static and current general knowledge and business awareness.
• Reasoning Abilities: - This includes puzzles, critical reasoning, visual reasoning etc.

To clear a written test a candidate should be able to maintain a proper balance between speed and accuracy. There is a general belief that candidates who are able to manage their time will come out victorious in the 1st phase of MBA entrance. The call letter for stage 2 which involves Group Discussion and Interview is sent to students who qualify the test.

Stage 2:

The Group Discussion and Interview - This stage of the process is held between February and March for most of the institutes. GDs and PIs are undertaken to check a candidate’s personality traits. Personality traits being checked in a GD are Group Behaviour, Awareness, Communication skills, Reasoning ability, Flexibility, Leadership, Assertiveness, Initiative, Confidence, Creativity to name a few. An interview can be broadly categorized into Personal Interview and Group Interview. In a Personal Interview apart from the personality traits an interviewer or the panel is interested in knowing about candidates’ academics, goals and self awareness level. In a Group Interview, apart from the parameters mentioned above, a candidate is also checked on his analytical ability.

Stage 3:

The Final Call: After having cleared the above two stages you will receive that all-important Final Call letter informing you that you have been selected.Most of the institutes ask the candidates to pay the first installment of the course within 30 days of the date of the call.

The Next Generation TOEFL Test (Internet-based TOEFL Test)

The Test of English as a Foreign Language™ (TOEFL®) evaluates the English proficiency of nonnative speakers of English as it is spoken, written, and heard in college and university environments. It tests all four language skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing which are important for effective communication. The scores are required for admission by colleges and universities in the United States and Canada. It is also used by the institutions in other countries where English is the language of instruction. In addition, government agencies, scholarship programs, and licensing certification agencies use TOEFL to evaluate English proficiency. The content of the new TOEFL test reflects the language that is used in real academic settings. The aim of the test is to enable the students to demonstrate their ENGLISH language skills.

Administration of the new test
