Other MBA Exam Prep Got DSE MBA (BA) offer, but confused between joining vs. re-attempting CAT/GMAT (IITian, ~2 yr gap). Need honest advice.
Hey guys,
Need some objective feedback on my situation:
My Profile:
- UG: B.Tech from an old IIT
- Work Ex / Gap: Worked for ~4 months at a startup, then took a break. Currently assisting with ops/analytics at a friend's small-scale venture to cover the gap on paper.
- Current Situation: I recently converted DSE MBA (Business Analytics) and the fee deadline is right around the corner. However, Iām deeply conflicted:
- DSE BA: Low fees/high ROI, but Iām worried about peer group alignment, placement stats for the BA track, and whether Iād be settling too early.
- Parents' Push: My parents are pushing me to go abroad for any Masters/MBA program, but I only want to target top-tier MiM programs (HEC Paris, INSEAD) if I go abroadāand I frankly lack the confidence to score a 660+ on GMAT Focus right now.
- The Dilemma: Should I take DSE as a safety net, attend classes, and prep for CAT/GMAT on the side? Or is it better to skip DSE, work at a full-time job/startup to fix the gap, and target CAT?
Would appreciate brutally honest takes from current B-school students or alums.

My wife's profile:
28F, Lawyer by profession; Current company: D.E. Shaw
Academics: 10/9/9
Work experience: 5 years
Goal: Consulting, but this isnāt final
Sheās taking the GMAT this September. The main target is ISB, but we also want to keep backup options ready in case things donāt go as planned.
Weāre trying to understand:
-What are the best MBA options in India and abroad for her profile? -Weāre looking at GMAT-only options. -No IIMs. -No US schools. -Preferably looking at Europe, Singapore, Dubai, and similar regions. -One big question: how realistic is it to do a global MBA and then get placed back in India? If thatās not practical, thatās okay too ā weād just like an honest opinion.
Current list:
SP Jain INSEAD HEC Paris Cambridge IE Business school ESADE Imperial College Business School SDA Bocconi
Would love feedback on:
-Which of these are actually worth considering. -Which ones should be removed. -What good options weāre missing, especially in India. -Whether āMBA abroad, then back to Indiaā is a practical path for consulting.

Career Advice Got into product management but not enjoying
Looking at exit options asap. Don't wanna go back to hometown.
TIER 2 mba, all financed by loan.
And no family business. I know I have a habit of leaving things in between, but I feel corporate is not for me. 2026 grad, but really not enjoying the work and environment. I want to quit and start something else, but the uncertainty is too much, and I don't have any capital. More than that, I don't have savings. I need to end this loan.
What can be some exit opportunities? Alternate career ideas?
Edit: I am kind of a nerd, like getting into one thing, spending time. But I do resonate with self help authors, entrepreneurship. I don't like working under someone, it's too frustrating.

GMAT Preparation Chances of ISB with an unconventional IIT profile? Looking for honest opinions.
Hi everyone,
Iād really appreciate an objective evaluation of this profile from an MBA admissions perspective.
Profile:
Male, 29
IIT Roorkee, B.Tech in Civil Engineering (CGPA 8.02/10)
Minor in AI & Data Science from IIT Mandi
(GEM)
Career Journey:
Prepared full-time for UPSC for about 4 years after graduation (did not make the final list).
Built and operated a family business for around 1.5 years before pivoting
Worked as a Highway Engineer for approximately 2 years on infrastructure projects.
Now transitioning into Data Science with projects in Python, SQL, Machine Learning and Deep Learning, and plans to build a career in analytics/AI.
Long-term goal:
Move into technology strategy, product, or AI-focused leadership roles through an MBA.
A few questions:
How would admissions committees (especially ISB) view a profile with multiple career transitions like this?
Is the UPSC phase viewed as a significant negative, or can it be positioned positively if the narrative is strong?
Does entrepreneurship meaningfully strengthen the application even if it was a family business?
Would you recommend applying to ISB after another 2ā3 years of analytics experience, or is the profile already competitive enough?
Assuming a competitive GMAT Focus score (around 675ā705+), how would you rate the chances at:
ISB
IIM Ahmedabad/Bangalore/Calcutta PGP (through CAT, if applicable)
INSEAD
LBS
Oxford/Cambridge
US M7 schools
If you were on an admissions committee, what would be the biggest weakness in this profile?
Looking for candid feedback from people who have gone through the MBA admissions process, are alumni, or have admissions experience. Iād much rather hear honest criticism than optimistic guesses.

Career Advice Online PGDM from MDI Gurgaon (2 yrs, total: 10lakhs fees). Is it worth it for 5 YOE at a Big Four? Company will sponsor 5 lakhs but 2 year bond after completing the course.
I am working at a Big Four company (currently 13 LPA) since 5 years. I am a Frontend Engineer and also have been Scrum Master and PMO for projects with excellent ratings and a considerably good work life balance.
Company has tied up with MDI Gurgaon for PGDM Online (weekend classes) and willing to sponsor 50% of the total fees. Should I take it up? As I am unmarried, I feel that this will help me pivot to management roles pretty quickly within the company. Also, there is a 2 year bond that I should stay here for 2 years after completing this course.

Internships & Placements Assistant manager and blinkit Replenishment Back-end team, Need some serious advice should I join?
CTC:Ā ā¹10 - ā¹12 LPA
Role Overview:Ā
The role involves managing purchase planning, purchase orders, vendor coordination, inventory availability, and supply chain operations to ensure seamless product flow across our warehouse network. The role requires close collaboration with Category, Supply Chain, and Operations teams to drive inventory health and operational excellence.
proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets (SQL is an added advantage), and an interest in Procurement, Supply Chain, and Operations.
Some background regarding me I am a tier three mechanical student.
--> Two patents.
--> Two times state level speaker.
--> Two internships, one in as a tech startup drone company, another in Product operations and growth in New Jersey based startup.
In my long term goal, I have thought that I will do an MBA
And I understand as per that it is a perfect role. But I just dont want to get into non technical role, especially in a company like blink it so soon (Not saying that the company is bad or something. It's just, I do not have any information. I just never expected to go into a company like this And not in this role I dont know anything about the environment, anything regarding pay structure in future I don't know anything)
I mean, I am very much interested in robotics, but at the end of the day Supply chain is a skill which is going to be very useful. I understand that point
Now I have a option in front of me that I will try to do something in reinforcement learning. Try to get into robotics. And it has a very, very small chance of happening. Extremely small chance
I might also get another technical role. In a R&D Company, I worked there for a few years, then tried to transition into product.
But what should I do? What is much more realistic for me? If I talk about my long term goal, I just want to be a Irreplaceable person. Who is best at what he does? I understand that supply chain is something that is very much useful in each and every type Business, or whatever we look at But should I go into it?
Need some serious advice here I need to fill up by tomorrow.
