How effective are Indian B-schools?

Definitely Indian B - Schools are effective in there own way, as when compared to B-schools Abroad, I think B-Schools in India prepare Students according to Indian markets and Indian economy.

So if one has to work in India or serve in India he/she should always go with Indian B-Schools, and yes we have some very elite class B-schools like all IIM's and some other Big names for Higher studies and they are nowhere less then any foreign B-school or University.

But Unfortunately majority of the Local B-Schools operated are just for the sake of business, and steps should be taken by the Government to Keep a watch on these Colleges and B-Schools.

Is'nt it !

Hi,

In my opinion in a developing country like INDIA need of B- Schools is very much because it develops Communication skills, Managerial Skills, Case Studies and provides practical knowledge for the business management. B-schools are remarkable but only few schools like IIT, IIM compete with global exposure. In abroad, working experience must required MBA, only after gaining working experience everyone will get to know real worth of doing MBA.

But there are so many Business schools in which only few percent are remarkable like IIM, Many schools have been open for only Business purpose so these schools may prove dangerous for students due to unemployment.

As of today, there are 4000 odd B-Schools in India of which only 2% have any credibility to their names. For the rest, it has become a business. With fees soaring as high as 15 lacs and the batch size being 500+ in some colleges, one can do the math how much business they gain.

Also, with lack of awareness amongst students and the tag of being an MBA it helps these B-Schools even more.

But in conclusion, I would say not all of them are ineffective as the top B Schools definitely help you in honing your communication, analytical and decision making skills and also give you a good ROI. Plus, the knowledge you gain never goes to waste.

But there needs to be a change wherein these business making B Schools can improve the way they function.

Effective?

Be it schools, universities or any xyz institutes they can never be effective. What really effect is what they cater i.e. education (study material). Even if you go to IIMs if the approach or study material is not worth, I don't think it can give what it is meant for.

So instead of any institutes students should be provided the study material and should be charged for the same not for the dress material.

Let the students do the education the way they want and along with they can continue gathering experience by working.

I am not opposing any body with there own views, I agree with other's point that B school gives platform to learn leadership skill, case studies, provide's practical knowledge but I have some question *why they giving fake information related placements (giving lots of companies name in their blog).

Why govt is giving permission & AICTE UGC giving affiliation to such colleges?

Why there is no restriction's ?

This is competitive era everybody want to take higher higher qualification.

If this B Schools attract students like this than they are not going to suffer but we are going to face problem & even country will face unemployment problem more and more.

SO my point is there should some restriction for B SCHOOLS.

According to my opinion these B schools are the main reasons of why students rare not ready to do hard work because they have an alternative so instead of focussing on study they are focussing on jobs.

B- schools in India are just like business these day. There many so called MBA colleges opened in every street in the city of India and it is very difficult to differentiate between colleges which are good or best. So because of that any one can do MBA from any college by giving a high amount of fees. But the education system in these b- schools is not so effective, so less companies comes to recruit students from these colleges. That's why these students have degree but no jobs. And it lead to unemployment.

Yes, business schools have a major role to develop the country. But they are try to develop them only, not develop the who are entering in to that schools. They just give the degree, but not giving the knowledge. So, there is need to develop the standards of that education system in business schools.

Hi friends,

B-schools in India have become an attractive and easy business in today's scenario. More and more institutes are mushrooming and students are attracted towards them by their placement ads and prestigious MBA tag. But still the real standard of study is maintained by some of the institutes only. The students of most general B-schools are seen as salesmen in their training or as agents of various finance companies. The increased number of schools and passed out students has reduced the value of a MBA degree. Students pay huge amounts of money to get into these schools but may or may not get jobs as expected.

So B-schools in India need to raise their standards to produce efficient and competent world class managers.

B-school are becoming a great business days because their main motive is to attract the student's main weakness i.e. job. So they attract student by giving the placement, hence all students are getting attracted upon them. So judge by yourself how effective is it?
