Thanks Sameer for creating this video. I am wondering If I can get your thoughts on this - I recently discovered product management but my impression so far is that I can be paid well (sweet sweet tech salary), don't need to code, don't need any special certifications/MBA/MS Computer Science (or any specific degrees for that matter) or specific experiences. Seems too good to be true. Wondering if I am missing something?

As with any managerial role, in theory, you don't need to have got your hands dirty doing technical work. But it surely helps to know how the underlying product and technology works. Specifically when you're competing with other MBA grads who come from tech backgrounds (and there are a ton of those in the top bschools). If you bring in some strong skills (like communication, negotiation, networking) that can help you gain some brownie points for roles such as business development.

The high rank can be helpful to communicate that you have the cerebral power to crack competitive exams. But keep in mind that MBA applications focus on a range of things that go beyond the ability to get a high score in entrance tests (GMAT gives them that idea already). So don't rely on the high rank to be a game changer.

I'm still a few years away from applying. Do you think constantly trying to get in touch with MBA students and sharing my reasons for applying is a good idea? How to deal with feeling intimidated when talking to them?

Starting early is good, and so is independent research. But going overboard isn't. There are many ways to gain knowledge - one of them is by reading up on MBA student experiences. Once you are fairly clear about the basics, your questions will get more specific. So take it slow, and don't get too stressed out so early in the race.

Thanks for the inputs. You probably know already that Aston doesn't rank very high in terms of branding. So corporate recruiters won't be very impressed when they see other MBA grads from LBS, Cambridge, Oxford etc vying for jobs. If you aren't aiming for corporate jobs, it may be ok. But make sure you've figured out what practical resources the bschool offers that helps you avoid going through a purely theoretical experience.
