by Ashok Kumar SEO

If you have not been able to get admission in Top B-schools, then you need not worry. This article tells you what all to do in your 2-years at your B-school to achieve high growth in your career

Uncanny Relatives: What are you studying?

Me: MBA

Uncanny Relatives: Ohh you too! From where?

Me: ###### college in Delhi NCR. (College name not displayed)

Uncanny Relatives: I have not heard its name. It might not be famous. Package will definitely be low then. Why didn’t you take admission in IIMs? I know, low marks in entrance exams. If you had studied hard, you could have made it to IIMs. My nephew is working in Infosys, he did it from IIM Lucknow.

A typical relative chit chats and your career SWOT analysis is presented in front of your parents.

Yes, I have done my MBA from a B-school which was not famous at all. I was enrolled in its third batch only. This B-school was part of a somewhat famous Group of Institutions which had MBA colleges in various other parts of Delhi NCR. But, I could only get admission in its newest campus, thanks to my low score in CAT exam.

But is that a big loss for me? Does it mean that I would not be able to do anything in my career? On the contrary to what you believe, this holds no truth.

MBA in India is regarded as one of the prime possessed degree and if you have done it from IIMs or other top 10 B-schools then you sure will be the eye candy of family celebrations and student re-unions. But, there are only around 8-10 thousand MBA seats in 13 IIMs and the next top 10 Non-IIMs B-schools.

· Come out of your shell

First thing to do when you get into a B-school is to stop being shy and withdrawn and become more friendly and sociable.
Every B school tries to enhance the overall personality of its students and hence there are many students’ bodies and councils like marketing, alumni, entrepreneur, media cell, cultural club, Placement cell, etc.
Don’t be an introvert

World is not kind to introverts especially with an MBA degree. Shun all your inhibitions and get ready to volunteer in your College fests or events. Every B school organizes at least couple of yearly events and participating in them will give you a firsthand experience of meeting deadlines and handling crisis situations.

· Take up Industrial Projects

MBA is all about gaining corporate and industry experience which will help you in your first job.

You are a part of very competitive group of students and must always try to gain an upper hand over the other in this mad race of securing high salary jobs.
Learn a new Language

Although it seems that you have no time in a day while finishing your assignments and presentations, but if you really want to have a leg up over others, learning a new and popular foreign language is a brilliant idea. For students who fancy their chances of going abroad, learning a foreign language like French, Chinese, German, etc would not only add your chances of working in a Multinational company but will also add in your CV.
during your future jobs.

· Become more Employable

Although you have been selected in a B school, it does not mean you have the correct skills as per industry standards which rapidly changes every year. While in B schools you must try to polish your skills and become more employable.
