5 Things Every MBA Aspirant Should Keep In Mind

blog cover
It is completely natural to still spend a lot of time towards MBA preparation. Since an MBA can offer a lot of opportunities and money there will be many who’ll still prefer to become a MBA graduate. But, most students have hardly any idea why they are doing this, and more importantly what they must do to make this particular investment (of money & time) fruitful. Here are a few things every MBA aspirant should keep in mind.

Why Do You Want To Do An MBA?
A person will have many reasons behind choosing a particular course. You may want to get placed in a huge company. You may prefer becoming an entrepreneur. You would like to fetch a high salary when compared to the non MBA graduates. You may like to have excellent networking opportunities with successful alumni. Whatever maybe the reason you should have a clear focus. Know your reason well and start taking small steps towards achieving this goal – internships, project work and volunteering activities will showcase your passion and dedication to the admission / interview panel.

How Will You Recover The Investment?
It is also important to concentrate on the return of investment. When you choose or get a seat in the top B-schools you may end up spending more money. But when you get placed in top MNCs you will gain back the money you spent in a few years. Most top Indian B-schools have starting salaries that are more or less equal to the cost of doing an MBA, and this is equally true for MIM and M.Sc. Management programs in Europe (less investment than a normal MBA).

Financial Aid
There are many colleges that provide a variety of financial aid in the form of scholarships, grants, internships, waivers, etc. It is always advisable to know about the fee structure and eligibility / applicable conditions to avail of financial aid that the college offers.

Be Ready For Tough Deadlines
MBA means so much learning and so much of hard work goes into the preparation that irrespective of the college you join you should be prepared to dedicate yourself. You should be ready for sleepless nights, multiple simultaneous deadlines, a few failures and stressful times.

Devolving Resume
Joining a B-School and preparing for the exams therein is just the first step in your career. There's an entire trilogy within that - summer internships leading to Pre-placement offers and finally the dream job during placement week ultimately leading to job satisfaction. For each of these, you will need a stellar Curriculum Vitae (CV) in order to maximize your chances of landing your dream job.

New Pattern And Syllabus Of CLAT 2020

Are you a law aspirant? Common-Law Admission Test (CLAT) is the most coveted of all the law entrances in India after Class XII. CLAT journey started in 2008 and today more than 55,000 students write the entrance every year to secure a seat in one of the participating National Law University. Major changes have been announced in the CLAT 2020 exam pattern by the consortium of NLUs. The blog will walk you through the changes in the pattern and syllabus of CLAT 2020.
Changes in the Pattern
· Reduction In The Total Number Of Questions:
The number of questions has been reduced to 150 from the earlier figure of 200. Earlier, students had to answer 200 questions within 120 minutes which used to put students under a lot of mental stress and made it difficult to attempt all questions. The new reduction in the questions will reduce this pressure and allow them to manage their time better.
· Change in question types:
The new pattern of CLAT will have comprehensive based questions on Quantitative Techniques, English, Current affairs, Legal Reasoning and Logical Reasoning. The descriptive syllabus might remain the same but the question types have undergone a major change. Aspirants will be tested on the proficiency in reading & comprehending texts and inferential reasoning based on the same. These in a way have legal aptitude connections.
· Sectional splits remain the same:
As per the recent notification and sample papers released by the consortium of NLUs the weightages across various sections will remain more or less the same. Thus Current Affairs and Legal Reasoning will each roughly account for 25% of the questions (i.e. about 35-39 questions) while English and Logical Reasoning will have 20% weightage each (around 28-32 questions). The remaining 10% (or 13 to 17 questions) will feature in Quantitative Techniques.
Importance of the Updated Pattern
Makes You Systematic:
The new exam pattern will help the students in understanding their strengths and weakness. It also helps in managing time while attempting the exam. Managing time across the various sections becomes critical, especially since comprehension based questions will be more time-consuming so one must plan to spend proportional time in each of the sections.
It Saves Time:
Students can be time-efficient only if they are aware of the exam pattern. With the revised exam pattern students must streamline their preparation and prepare effectively. Also as mentioned above, while time needs to be apportioned for all sections, based on individual strength/weakness across the various sections the time allotted to each individual section must vary in order to maximise the overall score.
