Above friends thanks for suggestions. But One Thing! some people were saying that people who can sell veggies has more enough knowledge rather than acquiring MBA. Question is If Knowledge is enough for selling vegetables then better sell them & Dont compare anyone to anything pl question the answer thats it. . If you can't achieve anything you can't degrade someone else. That doesn't make sense.

MBA is a kind of degree basically. Its not about MBA or any other degree. You can succeed in any field the matter is that you need to give your best at the end and definitely you will achieve your goal towards the success.

I am agreed with all of them, but according to me MBA is not necessary for getting successful in life. If you having skills, knowledge, confidence, and willingness to do something then success is always try to find you. MBA is for those who doesn't have ability, skills to do something, its improving your skills, but it depend on yourself whether you are getting some thing or not. If you having confident about yourself then you doesn't need any degree, while you getting successful in your life. Because.

Confidence Comes Naturally With Success, But Success Comes Only For Those Who Are Confident.

Is steve jobs, mark zuckerberg, bill gates and other big personalities are an MBA graduate? NO, they just did what they wanted to do and they became successful in it. So, an MBA is not that necessary to be a big man. Its the talent, passion, luck, confidence which takes you far away. If you get failed in achieving your dream never mind, just give it a try. As said in a movie " life ain't about how hard you hit, its about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward that's how winning is done. ".

Come on man grow up! why need to ask such questions? If you are a good science student do your masters in science first.

If you are in commerce or any other field than get masters of your subject first.

After that go for MBA.

Industry now needs an employee who is master of his subject (basic academics, ME/MCOM/MSC/MSW/ etc. First and then who can manage all the affairs.

If you are not the master of your subject or I mean to say if you don't have enough knowledge then even an MBA will not help.

MBA from top reputed institutes is the only hope those who want to sincerely pursue an MBA.

I agree with people who are saying that to achieve success in life one must possess ability, skills, confidence and attitude but we all were born same nobody has got all these things by birth it all depends upon under what circumstances and type of people you have been lived and which is out of your concern so people develop their skill knowledge confidence exposure later on with their studies. With other students, with teachers, with people who have spent their time in industry corporate and market and things are learned their developed there so if MBA is not important or good for somebody that does not mean its ridiculous or worthless.

Because every newly born child is BILL GATES, EDISON and ZUCKERBERG but not every grown up MAN.

Studies never harm it could be a matter of choice. If it is not what were bill gates and zuckerberg doing at harvard uni in graduation classes. We need to have some deeper thoughts.

Thanks.

This is such a ludicrous topic. I can give you at least 12 names who have not done MBA but has successful career so I don't think that MBA is necessary to succeed in life however it provides you very good platform for your growth.

I only want to say the person having capacity to failure have confidence and knowledge and skill to perform work only can success. MBA also plays important role to generate knowledge, skill and personality development this is all about what I want to say.

With all due respect to my friends who have stated above that MBA is not necessary to become successful, I just want to ask a question 'if MBA is not useful/necessary, then why all these big or small companies in their job specification ask for an MBA with so many years of work experience'. Why only MBA's are hired for certain positions or you have to work your ass off to get that position.

You either possess or learn skills, yes there are people who have done good without having an MBA degree but how can you forget the achievements of people who have done good after doing their MBA for eg. Ambani Brothers, Ms. Indira Nooyi, Flipkart's Director, Ms. Vinita Bali, Ms. Chanda kochhar and many more.

Thank you for such wonderful and helpful information related to MBA. Choosing a specific domain is the most critical decision in life. Whether a student should opt for MBA or M.Tech or any other professional courses. Many of time students misunderstand themselves and unable to choose the best suitable programs for them and some of goes with their parents. So it's very vital to know the facts of each and every domain whether it is MBA or M.Tech. Once again thank you for providing the wonder or you have enlighten the way for MBA Students. Now at least students have the clear idea for the MBA.
