Trying to judge an MBA college’s worth from a personal and subjective point of view will only misguide you. When you opt to go for MBA, you should choose a B-school that fits your eligibility, your career goals and your pocket. Your goal should be to do a good MBA from a good B-school that lands you a job at the end of two years of study and sets you on a solid career path. So, try to choose an MBA college that satisfies the following conditions.
The MBA program should be recognized by the regulators like the AICTE or the University Grants Commission. You don’t have to worry much about recognition if you are going for a public institution as they normally adhere to all regulations. If you are opting for an MBA college in the private sector, you must check its approval status. If it is offering a PGDM, check out whether the program has been granted equivalence to MBA by the authorities concerned. Look at its standing in the academic circles and the industry. Does it have a rigorous selection process? Does it recruit students through tough entrance exams like CAT or MAT.? Get your answers right before you take admission there. Also look at the academic quality of the faculty and their industry exposure. The better the faculty, the better the learning experience. This is bound to culminate in good placements, provided it has a good placement cell.
If all this sounds tedious, here’s a shortcut. You can look at the rankings to decide the best fit B-school for you. Top rated agencies like the NIRF of the Central education ministry and private one like Careers360 assess B-schools on parameters like students, faculty, admission process resources, learning outcomes and placements.
