Phoren B-school Assistance Desk - 04-04-2006, 10:56 AM

Hie guys,

We are starting this thread to cater to any generic queries related to B-schools abroad. You will also have veterans answer to your queries out here on the thread.

Also, merging all relevant threads with this one.

* Go through all the MBA related articles posted on Pagalguy

* Do not ask your chances at any B-School by giving out ur profile. If anyone can realistically give you an answer, they wouldnt be sitting here taking your query - they would be rather sitting on a sandy beach sipping ginger ale, making easy $$..


PS: Please guide newbies who start new threads for the same to this thread.

1) Read my articles on Pagalguy.com. The list of articles are available at - http://simba.pagalguy.com/articles/
I have clearly mentioned some of the characteristics for doing an MBA abroad. No, ur 6 months wont be sufficient! Minimum, 3-5 years of experience is reqd to get sufficient value of an MBA.

2) All work ex will be considered at the time u start ur b-school.
