As a mass media graduate who is preparing for CAT, the biggest challenge I face is the unfamiliarity of an MBA, it's like I eagerly want to do it but the course curriculum is heavy on quants, especially finance and I fear I might not catch up once I am inside. Tbh, you're the first BMM/Journalism student I came across who went to an IIM. Do you have any tips to overcome this fear, cause it seriously is taking a toll on my prep. Thank you.

@MilanaPrakash

Жыл бұрын

Don't worry about the curriculum. There are doctors in our batch who have never studied fin, and they do so well in fin exams! Just focus on the prep for now. Once you get in, you'll find a support system that will help you ace these subjects. Professors are super supportive and they take remedial classes for non-enggs too. You study advertising in BMM, right? So marketing courses will be easy for you :)

Hey Milana! Thank you for such an insightful video on your profile. I had a question, to what extent does the name brand of the company you've worked in matter in IIM interviews? I am a Psych + Econ grad from DU with 13 months of experience in Brand Marketing in a smaller scale MNC (~5000 employees) and wanted to know if that might impact anything. Most of the profiles I've seen have had work ex in larger, more well-known companies. Would love to hear from you. Thanks!

Your score (that any IIM will use while calculating the work ex- depends solely on your months of work ex. Maybe in the interview it could add some brownie points, but what matters more is how the experience shaped your growth and how you contributed & what you learnt.

Don’t take your strength sections for granted and focus on meeting sectional cut offs for the other sections. You have lots of time, you can do this!
