Hi,
Hope you guys are doing well.
I have a question in mind and it will be grateful if someone can answer that.
I got a call from a business school and most of the candidates are postponing the admission to Sep, 2021. Moreover, the average intake will be high for any colleges and placement or average salary may be low considering the current market scenario.
Is it advisable to appear for MBA in the next year considering the economy loss due to COVID 19.
Regards.

skharkia : Well that is a very subjective question and depends on many unpredictable factors to which we do not have an answer. In my personal opinion though, if you have an option, you should choose to delay it for sometime. But again, take a wise choice as per your individual circumstances

Hi,
I guess everyone is wondering that. It depends on a lot of factors. You could start by answering/getting answers to the following questions:
1) Does your b-school allow deferring for one year?
2) What is the ROI of your B-School. If it is good, then you might want to worry less and go ahead with the admit this year
3) If the answer to first question is no, then how is this b-school ranked in your preferences? Do you have confidence you'd be able to convert it again next year.
4) Can you avail any scholarship that can help you with the admit, and thus fees might not be a burden.
5) In which country is your b-school? Study the economics of that country and economic predictions of that country. While the whole world is suffering from this pandemic, some nations will bounce back sooner than others.
Thanks,
Pooja
