In my point of view MBA is not necessary for succeed in Life. A person who is hard working, have a goal, sincere etc can be a successful person in life. If he/she is a MBA holder or not it doesn't matter. Only thing is that should have the power to face what all comes in front of him.

MBA might not seem necessary at the moment, it's not mandatory for success. But it fasten things up, it works as a catalyst for you to achieve your career goal. MBA is not just a degree, it is a personality development program where they give you real time problems which you may have to solve as an individual or as a team member. It makes you analytical towards to problem.

In addition it adds confidence to you. It clears your mind, It can describe what you may feel but can't express in words. It's good if you are gifted with above features, but we know that not all of us are. Therefore, MBA is a way to get smart or even smarter.

P. S. - Pursuing MBA from a reputed institute means something, not from any ABC** college of Management.

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.

Every situation has failure and success. As my point of view one who balances success and failure equally then he will be known as MBA student. Those who fails 100 times and got success in 101th time those people knows the value of MBA not but from B-schools within couple of years. As a degree it is Ok but try to use the concepts till your life ends.

The definition of success varies from person to person.

For some, it might be finding a soulmate.
For some, it may be excelling at things that are creative at.

So, for a candidate whose aim has always been to be a part of the business in any way, yes MBA is necessary to succeed in life, else after a couple of years, he might find himself stuck in the corporate ladder.

According to my opinion If you have a very good product to offer to the market, like the (iPhone) which the world has not yet seen, MBA is not all required. All that you need is common sense to manage various tasks involved. The product which your business endorses is critical in in building the brand image of your company. MBA is not for aspiring entrepreneurs but for management professionals.

Success is depend upon us. How we will perform. I think MBA help to achieve our goal, life is journey. MBA student think differently rather than other he got knowledge how to overcome obstacles and how to get success.

To properly answer this question, a person first needs to to define what "success" means to them as an individual- material gain? having an impact on society? a well-balanced professional and personal life? etc. etc.

As a business school admissions consultant that works with a global client base, I see too many candidates thinking an MBA is the key to success, when it is simply a stepping stone along the path to fulfilling your professional objectives. Clearly defined life goals, be they professional or personal are what brings 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.
