Should you do an MBA? | A 5-points analysis #MBAtips

Check out this video where I do an MBA vs. MiM comparison:

_______________________________________________________________

There is a lot of debate on whether you should do an MBA or not.
While people like Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk continue to bash MBA on the upfront, Amazon and Tesla still recruit MBAs on a massive scale :)

0:00 So how should you decide if MBA is for you?

By doing a thorough analysis, of course!

If you are confused about your MBA programs, you should look at the degree from the following perspectives:
1. Value of an MBA (02:08)
2. Your GOAL to do an MBA (03:25)
3. MBA for an 'entrepreneur' (04:30)
4. Is MBA still relevant? - MBA vs. other courses (06:00)
5. Personal development perspective (08:40)

A major career decision (like this) cannot be taken in a single day. You must do a deeper analysis and understand your goals!

Hope this video helps you making a wise choice :)

If you want me to cover any topics (comparison between MBA schools), do drop in a comment. I will definitely try to shoot those videos!

Would love to hear your thoughts on Indian MBA landscape and it's value compared to top foreign B schools (locally and abroad).

I just can't imagine how wonderful would be Akshat x warikooo Collab for podcast or something more interesting than that!!

[divyagolyan]

This is the 7th video on my ongoing research for whether I should do an MBA or not, and this is the BEST one so far in all the top-watched videos. Thank you so much Akshat for this unbiased and comprehensive take on the MBA degree. Keep making an amazing impact!

When is a second MBA worth it? Can you please make a video about the factors to consider for this decision?

[ChatANIRBAN]

Would love to hear your thoughts on one-year vs. two-year MBA programmes. It appears the former is more prevalent in Europe, while the latter is common in the USA. Also, with European MBA programmes, recruiting is split across countries e.g. UK, Germany, France etc Any drawbacks to this compared to the US programmes where you'd be looking at opportunities within one country.

Hi Akshat, thank you for sharing your opinion. I'm glad you have an unbiased & practical view of things. I'd request you to also talk about the Blended Learning MBA programmes and compare them with Offline & Online MBAs to bust some myths.

Working professionals like me can't quit our jobs but also want to taste the campus life a tad bit. For eg. IIMA offers ePGP - 5 weeks on campus and the remaining classes in VCNow centers in multiple cities. On the other hand, IIMB offers 2yr weekend program but all classes are on-campus and thus not feasible for non-Bangaloreans.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

Since I'm giving CAT this year this video gave me some more points to tackle interviews.

[Suryansh-Singh]

I'm so moved by this specific video. I was in a dilemma of whether pursuing an MBA would really be worth an investment? This has cleared so many points, and helped me a lot. Thankyou so much Akshat, your channel has such an inspiring content and really love the work you're doing.

This is a very useful video Akshat that sets straight a lot of things for MBA aspirants like me. It would be really useful and interesting if you compare INSEAD with US M3 B-Schools, specially STANFORD, looking forward to the video. Keep doing the awesome work.

Hey Akshat, this is some solid quality content for people who are thinking whether to go for that MBA or not! :)

[vincentjoyhere]

An. ISB vs II comparison video would be really helpful. I still have a lot of confusion regarding which one offers better training programs, more elite in terms of signalling effect and has better alumni network. Also it will be useful if you can cover the difference between fee structure, entrance exam difference etc, it would be really helpful.

[rushabhmaske]

Your perspective on mba is refreshing.

[riteshraghavapudi]
