Hi I have just taken admission for mba & very much confused regarding the courses i should pursue along with my mba . PLease can someone help me regarding this I am interested in finance & i cannot afford CFA right now . It would be great if some help me from this dilemma.rolleyes

I am an Engineer, 2012 Batch pass out. As per the age old custom, I got into a software firm (Accenture). I realised that I did not want to base my life as a developer and immediately got out of the firm after a year of work experience. Now Happily quit the job, and studying for MBA exams - CAT and GMAT 😁

Now here is the dilemma. I am from a family of doctors who have their successful private well-to-do established institutes in Bangalore. I have now collaborated with them and have taken up the role of business developer as my pre MBA goal. I will be working on a short term project in health care industry, pre MBA to present in my MBA essay. However, I do need to be very efficient and credible to handle this project. Hence I am looking for short term/long term courses - maybe finance related, Marketing related or any business development related courses which would help me understand the working of any industry and help raise the profits of the institute and establish a benchmark on it own. However, I am not targeting only for health care but I would rather plunge into many other industries and help with the business solutions. Again for this, I need credibility beyond the Engineer tag.

As I am entirely new to this area, I would want help in deciding the right course related to Finance, Marketing or anything related to pre MBA courses that would help me in :

1.) Project in Health care and other industries

2.) Help me find a better job pre MBA (Probably investment banking or any other financial sector) - I am in no hurry to jump into MBA course right away.

3.) A good story for MBA essay where my efforts really mattered to the institute unlike the corporate software firm (which was like an ocean)

PS - Money and Time for the courses will not matter for me.

As a part of my research I found these courses to be interesting. If I can go about it, how should I? Is it really worth? Please advise.

1.) Chartered Financial Analyst

2.) Financial Risk Management

3.) Professional diploma in Digital Marketing

Thanks.

what does private open-ended alternative investment fund mean ?

hey puys, i completed my engineering this year and preparing for MBA entrances. Im doing a bit of research in deciding upon my specialisation since we have to mention it while filling application forms of various b-schools. I have a few doubts regarding Finance. I have heard that finance is tough. Being an engineer, having absolutely no knowledge in finance will it be too difficult for me to cope up with syllabus? will i need to appear for CFA etc and do companies prefer CAs etc who are from a commerce background and have a good base in Finance during recruitment? Please help ! 😃





Hi, I had a query regarding a certain profile offered by I-Banks at bschools, related to market risk analysis/management. What would this profile entail, would be be front/back end? Experts in this thread, please help out 😃

Hey i want to know about a job after doing mba in finance.. do we need to sit before computer full day and work?


I just wanted to know, is there a reason why student loans have more interest rate than home loans?

A student loan has a lesser repay duration than home loans which stretch up to 25 years, then what is the logic behind it?

Hi seniors,

I want to know, is it worth doing CFP with MBA. Will this help me enhance my career. How are the job scenario for MBA+CFP.
I am currently doing my MBA from IMT-G(First year).

Hii
i am an electrical engineer having 3+ years of work ex. in manufacturing sector.
I am aware that the kind of work ex i am having would suit operations better than finance.

Sadly in india, the colleges with a good Operations course are limited.

However, in case i manage to land up in a B school (apart from say top 5-6), and i end up choosing finance as specialization,
What are the profiles that may be offered given a sizable work ex. in manufacturing sector.

any easy way to understand what exactly credit default swaps are and how they contributed to the financial crisis in 2008 ??

NCFM? any good?

There is a common question in interviews: Why are you interested in the specialization of finance..?

How do we answer this question so that it demonstrates passion for finance and also be rational at the same time ? I am a 3rd year B.Com student who has cleared IPCC (CA intermediate)
