INTRODUCTION: WHY YOU NEED THIS GUIDE

Choosing an MBA or PGDM is one of the biggest financial and career decisions for Indian students and families. Unfortunately, many guides focus only on:

• Rankings

• “Highest package” marketing

• Paid promotions

This guide focuses on real concerns, especially for middle-class families and women students:

• Is the campus safe?

• Can I realistically get an education loan?

• Are placements honest and achievable?

• Is the faculty actually good?

• Does metro or city connectivity matter?

• Is the MBA worth the money (ROI)?

⚠️ GENERAL DISCLAIMER ABOUT PLACEMENTS

• “100% placement” does not mean 100% high-paying jobs

• Average salary ≠ salary every student gets

• Highest package is often an outlier

• Some students opt out of placements (entrepreneurship, family business, etc.)

👉 Your outcome depends more on YOU (70%) than the college name (30%)

WHO THIS GUIDE IS FOR

• Commerce & Arts graduates

• High CAT/MAT scorers

• Average or low scorers

• Students with weak academics but strong motivation

• Women students and safety-conscious parents

• Loan-dependent, middle-class families

HOW TO USE THIS GUIDE CORRECTLY

Do NOT pick a college based only on:

• Rank

• Brand name

• Fee discounts

• Sales calls

Instead, evaluate:

• Safety

• ROI

• Faculty

• City exposure

• Loan feasibility

• Internship access

PART 1: MBA ADMISSION REALITY CHECK

If You Have High Scores (85%ile+)

• Focus on faculty, alumni, consulting/analytics roles

• ROI usually strong

If You Have Average Scores (70–85%)

• Prefer MAT/CMAT flexibility

• Metro cities give internship advantage

If You Have Low Scores (60–70%)

• Choose job-oriented PGDMs

• Live projects + skills matter more than brand

⚠️ Disclaimer:Low scores do not mean low potential. Many average scorers outperform toppers in real jobs.
