What are all the qualities that I must have already inbuilt within myself for me to opt for an MBA. How will I figure out the same?

1) Are there separate WATs for each IIM or just one? 2) What can one do if the WAT topic is something one isn't very much familiar with or doesn't know the facts and examples to write about the topic?

@2iimcat

Жыл бұрын

Hey Mrinal, Each IIM conducts it's on own WAT spot test, where you'll be assessed on your writing skills and knowledge on various topics. Usually they test you on topics like current affairs, economics, finance, etc. We suggest you to start reading news paper on a daily basis to get a rough idea about what's happening in the country and the world. Also have an eye for information and news wherever you can get it - internet, news channels, preferably newspapers etc. Hope this helps. Best Wishes!

sir how to answer if we are not sure which field in MBA should we choose

Can I answer why mba is this way :- I would like to give answer to this question by 1 example , suppose there are 2 points A and B ,A is my starting point where I'm standing today ,and B is my ultimate destination where I want to reach in the future, now there can be several ways I can go from point A to point B , like I can go by zig-zag line , curve like and straight line , but straight like is most significant and appropriate way to reach that point B and that straight line path is mba . Also mba provide essential managerial skills , and meaningful insight which is necessary in today's corporate world , and these are main reasons why I want to do MBA !

@2iimcat

Hey Vaidik, Of course you can answer this question this way - although you should be ready to answer follow up questions based on the example you've given. The panelist could easily ask what makes you think MBA is the straight path. The straight path would be learn that specific skill that you want to instead of an MBA which is a major time and money investment. Do be prepared with answers for questions like these if you wish to go with that answer. Hope this helps. Best Wishes!

Hey Watermelon, Although there's no guaranteed answer for this question, we strongly recommend aspirants to pursue CAT while working instead of taking a gap year. A gap year only to prepare for CAT can lead to the panelists drilling you during the interviews. The best route would be to find a job and simultaneously prepare for CAT as most of the CAT aspirants are working professionals. Hope this helps. Best Wishes!

What are your genuine reasons, Amruta? The answer has to revolve around that. Are you planning to switch domains and hence you are looking at an MBA with a specific specialisation? Do you now want to do it form a top B-school so that you can enrich your career with this excellent learning experience? You have realised that there are some gaps in your skills and knowledge that you believe would be bridged through a second MBA? Introspect and craft an answer based on your genuine reasons.

Why MBA after BBA 😂 the real struggle i face

@2iimcat

3 ай бұрын

Hey Siddartha, As someone who faced this question in my B school interviews, here's an answer I recommend: 1) Scratched the surface of subjects in BBA, eager to learn deeper about concepts in MBA 2) Plethora of opportunities post MBA as compared to Pre MBA. 3) Career Progression is much better w.r.t roles offered, salary, growth with an MBA. 4) Academic rigor of B school can help better in preparing me for challenges in life. 5) Looking forward to Non academic learnings - peer learning and case studies based learning. I based my answer around these 5 points. Feel free to adjust them accordingly while answering. Hope this helps! Best Wishes!
