MBA in India is highly Over-rated

MBA is overrated in India first we need to understand that we have two parallel in MBA, one is government owned MBA colleges another one is B-School, the student mainly think that if they do MBA they will get job for sure, if we notice in these days the number of B-School in India is just keep increasing, the student who does MBA in govt colleges those students only look for certificate and normal job but don't even try to grab more knowledge on the specialization but in case of B-School they are taking more fees and also placing the student for decent packages but those are like training institution just focusing on teaching the skill which required to do a MBA not concentrating on any moral ethics.

No doubt MBA is overrated in India. But it seems that MBA has very vast scope in our country. Because various business developing day by day and due to that the demand for MBA is increasing. According to economics - INCREASE IN DEMAND : INCREASE THE PRICE OF COMMODITY.

Yes, In India MBA is highly over-rated. In other part of the world, number of student applying for MBA is decreasing but in case of India it is decreasing. It's become a trend to do the MBA after graduation. One more reason of more applicant of MBA is the non availability of the job for graduate people. People have a believe that they will get the job after MBA. MBA is a good course but it not the only course to succeed in life.

Thank you.

MBA is highly overrated in India. In my point of view, I think it is quite justified. After graduation, one can make his/her career in MBA, because it has vast course full with various human growing attributes and various personal development skills with full of training and development program. That also provide job involvement inside the country and also in abroad. Govt also lunch so many kinds of program for MBA. So friends now go ahead with setting a goal in life and by joining MBA, we are preparing ourselves for facing our goal in our day to day life. Thanking you.

Though MBA is overrated but there are college who are making management degree worth going for. Like one of the top b-school in Delhi NCR called EMPI Business School helps the student inculcate the habit of managing work-life balance with the help of its serene campus life.

Though unemployment is a major issue in India, no on can argue that in India the candidates who possess MBA and BE manage to get a job than other graduates. Yes, MBA is overrated but the fact is this overrated degree gives you a high pay job which no other degree can. I see many people talking about doing MBA for knowledge and all. But the reality is it all boils down to one thing. That is money. Some of the people stated money can't buy happiness. But money can buy the things which bring you happiness. Apart from money, MBA is a great option for career progression as well as self-growth.

Yes, it's true that MBA is highly overrated in India. Most of us think by doing MBA we get high salary job and have secure future, mist of them doesn't know the exact meaning of MBA they just follow the crowd.

Hi all,

While talking about the topic we should firstly keep one thing in our mind that after doing graduation and even also having a decent years of work experience we might fail to properly manage any business situation or systematic organization of resources for an organization in long run. That's how MBA comes into the picture in order to fill the gap. Although there are a handful no of institutes for MBA in India and the cost for the degree is bit high but if you are in some decent college you will definately learn something which won't be taught in graduation or in working field. MBA gives you the opportunity to learn about the managerial skills, the problem solving skills, the decision making skills and many more which would be really helpful in order to shape your business. And probably that's the reason for the companies to offer higher packages for MBA graduate. It is the most diversified field which anyone from any field can opt for and it will help them to sustain in long run.

Yeah, I agree with this it highly overrated because no other course is better than MBA. If I talk about ca and cs there is negative marking and the passing result is only 3% every year. What should do the student obviously he/she is going in MBA. No any single college who done the MBA less than 5lakhs rupees every college fees is more than it and it gives no possibility to provide good placement.

Yes, MBA is highly overrated in India.

The reason is money minded students.

We can take the example of IIT students. After completing their graduation from a prestigious institute of our country, instead of making a contribution to the country through there technical skills and knowledge, they opt to go for MBA to earn more money.

Another reason might be the increase in no of graduate students every year. There is less job opportunity and they decide to go for MBA to seek a good job.
