My main idea of doing an MBA is due on few important parameters like Corporate Exposure at management / business heirarchy , Networking of the concerned people, an systematic approach for gaining the knowledge & corporate contacts required for an successful entrepenurship venture.

Looking for help from all the concerned in evaluating my profile.

I really like to focus on the pre-graduation experience where i acquired an understanding of " Corporate process and Business operations " during my stint in family owned Business for five years.
