Hi people! I'm Govind Pandey, a fresh Mechanical Engineer graduating from Amity University, keen to join a top-notch B-School next year (targeting non-IIMs mostly due to lack of a mind-blowing portfolio! 😐 ). I have good communication skills, great team-centric performance skills and a good amount of resourcefulness and strategic creativity. Hoping to polish these at a B-School and subsequently barter post-MBA for a sense of satisfaction, a feeling of contribution and of course, a fat paycheck! 😉 😛

Hi, This is Mani. Currently working in Gurgaon with an Analytics firm.

My work ex is 6 years and I want to do MBA.

MBA done .. Now looking to face the CFA too ... Can someone please redirect me to CFA thread ..


Hi,

Let me illustriate my background,

CLass X:-70%(ICSE Board)

Class XII-66%(Best of four,ISC board)

Graduation-(BCA)-6.73 GPA

AGE:-turned 24 very recently

Went to IIRM(Institute of Insurance and Risk Management) for a course PG program-scored 75%(Course Sent by ICICI for their company specific course.

worked at ICICI for 1 and a half years in Analytics and Pricing(Involved in all company numbers,and business aspects and Pricing of product,and well Versed in Stastical Analytical System),Long story short,my work life starts with numbers and ends with numbers.

Was earning 3.25 LPA(Fixed,apart from Variable) as a fresher,got a good rating and ok increment,apart from the performance bonus.

Was in Insurance Industry,got a good offer where the hike i got took me to above 5.25 LPA within a year and a half,but I have to change the industry for it,and the work would involve analytics and project management.

here are the few Dillema's:-

1)My question is,I really want to do MBA,but I lack the financial strength,as of Now to do an MBA,and currently cant leave my job,So,my question is,would an EX-MBA from a decent B-school after lets say,4-5years of Experience,help in my growth pattern?I dont think Im capable of getting into any of the TOP 3 IIM's,but touchwood,by god's grace,what about other good ones who provide Executive MBA,ISB's,SIBMs,XLRI's,FMS,or even Tier 2 colleges such as IMT,NMIMT,KJSMIM,Would that help in my career?or a fresher MBA is good enough?

2)SInce I already have Experience of Analytics and Pricing,would Acturial be a good option?But I had 70% in Maths in CLass X and had a horrible class XII in terms of studies,obviously could hardly manage a pass mark in Maths,but thats mostly because I could barely study in 12th rather than anything else.I do get praised in my organization for picking up stuff so fast as I could go and present in front of directors within 6 months of joining,in the field which has got to do with numbers.Im good with Numbers,but One weak point I have in Maths and thats Calculus,that was my differential factor for Class X and CLass XII.

3)Another option,I have deep interest in is,Investment Banking,Since Im not from any TOP B-SCHOOL and Nor from any IIT,and have NO experience in Investment banking,Would Going for a CFA/FRM help?I have studied a few odd chapters of CFA and it interests me.and Since it has little to do with calculus,it looks good for me.

what should I do? I feel Im getting too old to really go in Higher managements in my Life in a Company. The obvious other way to go for is,SInce I had Science in my Class XII,is to brush up my Class XII maths or in other words,brush up my Calculus.

Hello Everyone - 10th:  84 CBSE/12th: 60 State Board(Thanks to my state board)/B.Tech: 8/10 CGPA

1. What should i do - Should i go for another attempt or move on ?

2. Will it be worth to do MBA after this work ex i.e. by Dec 2015 it will be 4.5 years..

3. What job profiles will be offered or most expected to get ?

All messed up in head .. please suggest.. 

Hi Everyone,

I have been working in the Information Tech sector for several years and am now a director at learnito.com

I see that young aspirants are constantly seeking out opinion in various discussion threads for the right place to study, work, the right exam to take, and so on. You have a certain goal in mind but are pulled in so many different directions by peers, advertisements, parents, and quick one line opinions in discussion threads.

It would be nice if alumni of came forward to write a frank review of the institute that they studied in instead of only an occasional response to a query.  People are enthusiastic about writing a review for a restaurant in zomato! but writing a review about your institute is far more helpful. 

It would be helpful really if alumni come forward to review their institutes (quality of faculty, infrastructure, exam success or placement success, etc )in www.learnito.com, siksha/minglbox or other sites like it, so that the next set of students can make more informed decisions!

All the best to all Aspirants,

Kailash Bhoopalam
