The Many Roads To An MBA - Life At IIM Nagpur For A Commerce Graduate

Practice is the only thing which is required and once you start practicing, you actually realize that you are in a better position than most of the engineers as well. After clearing CAT, work experience is often the decisive criteria to get admission into prestigious B-Schools as it gives you a weighted advantage over others. The best part about being an Indian Institute of Management, Nagpur is the diversity that we have. The batch offers rich diversity in terms of geographical locations, educational background, and work experience. This helps us enormously and the overall peer-to-peer learning experience improves a lot as people from different background and cultures have different perspectives on the subject matter. The pedagogy that is followed over here is a mix of classroom teaching as well as case discussions, which allows us to understand the real life problems that some of the businesses faced and even appreciate some of the tested empirical frameworks which worked well in such situations.

Apart from the academic curriculum, there are various other roles that you can take up at a B-School. You can be a member of some of the clubs of your interest and let me tell you, the learning which you get by working for and organizing club events is also something which adds value to you! Not only you organize them, work hard for them, but the sense of self-satisfaction after successfully organizing an event is enormous and it gives a boost to the budding manager in you!
