So Sameer, I will be totally transparent about my case. I was supposed to graduate last year doing Bcom from Mithibai, but unfortunately, I managed to get myself KTs in some subjects and the other subjects which I passed in have pretty low grades. I will try to give my best in the subjects in which I have to reappear and probably by January or February of the next year, I will be done with my graduation but with a poor grade or GPA overall. And since last year I have set a goal for myself to take place in one of the top B schools in the world but with a low cost as well. So after a long research, I found the University of St. Gallen. It's SIM (Strategy and International Management) program is the one where my mind is set now. So I would like your valuable advice and expertise on this

Such situations are always tough to handle, specially when you're aiming for the elite programs. The biggest hurdle is eligibility, as some programs may specifically mention their minimum academic criteria. For that reason, before you start the application process, it's best to connect directly with the admissions team of your target program, share your profile details and ask them if they'd encourage you to apply. If they do, then put in your best in every component that's still under your control.

Tough to predict how it'll all unfold. Take the call based on your personal outlook and the level of risk you're comfortable with. Some are waiting and watching. Others are going ahead, since they expect to graduate 1-2 years later, when (hopefully) the situation wouldn't be as bad. The silver lining is that it could become a little easier to get into better programs, given the current situation.

Hi Sameer, Happened to read a notification that Kellog has waived off GMAT scores as an application criteria in the current COVID scenario. What is your judgement on the fact that will not having a GMAT be bottleneck in the future, when it would come to recruitment? Look forward on hearing your thoughts.

@MBACrystalBall

As you might know, some top consulting and Ibanking companies ask for GMAT scores to filter out candidates. And schools like Kellogg act as feeder programs to those industries. But in line with the fact that the program has proactively waived off the requirement, recruiters may also start looking at other factors in case of those who don't have a GMAT score. They don't want to lose out on the talent pool. In the worst case, you could take the test as an MBA student, if they are still insisting on it.

Hi I am a graduate from an IIT. I work for a British bank in a product management role, I plan to take the GMAT when I have 4+ years of experience so that I can apply for BSchools when I have 5+ years of experience(Currently I have 2.5). With the recent Corona outbreak, I suddenly found a lot of free time in my hands. I started prepping for GMAT two weeks ago and took the first practice test and scored 730 with just two weeks of prep. I hope with few months of hard work I can get much higher. I feel like if I don't capitalize, it will be a missed opportunity. My only worry is if I take the test 2-3 years in advance, does that put me in some kind of bad light?

Think about if/how your current experience translates to another geography.

An MSc degree generally attracts freshers and folks with less experience (under 2 years). MBA is more appropriate for professionals with more experience.

Interesting analogy about birds! I think that saying was about early birds getting worms, and not about hatching eggs earlier, right? Regardless of what works for birds, in humans delivery before time isn't considered a good thing, unless we're talking about logistics companies. When it comes to higher ed, a change of perspective will be helpful. If you stop looking at an MBA as an end in itself, you'll find more meaning to what you're currently doing. If you've enjoyed working in the sales domain, there's no reason to switch tracks just for diversification. Having 5 years of experience in one domain works better than 1 year each in 5 roles. We have a video on how to build your profile. Have you seen that?

Employment would be hit that's for sure. What is tough to predict is - by how much and for how long. As a general rule, grads from the top schools with recognisable MBA brands will bounce back faster.
