There is nothing childish about it.You come to an MBA oriented discussion group ,then you say you are not motivated for the exam and you are looking whether MBA sets you up for monetary boost or not .Money is a driver but it is not the sole driver .The purpose of this group is to enable people get over the hurdle . And then this person tells us that CAT is not a big deal and berating one of the toughest exam for MBA is mark disrespect to the people who had cleared it and doing something fabulous out there .It is also disrespectful to the cause we are fighting more ( MBA).On top of that she/ he has no idea about the number of segments that GMAT test you on and yet he/she joined the group and start making threatening comments . I guess @228762994118787 needs to first think whether he/she is in right state of mind or not cause the words coming out of your mouth does not highlight you in good picture

Just to add to what @wc said, I am turning 32, have 8 years of leadership experience, topped CAT and GATE both almost a decade back, had MBA from on of the holy trinity and still a naive at GMAT, trying my hands for the first time in this beast!

I am sure you are working really hard for the GMAT, and I genuinely wish you all the best.

But GMAT is not about who reaches there first, I am 27 today, I started thinking about giving GMAT when I was 18 and naive and dumb. I didn’t even know the full form of GMAT. The only thing I knew was that my eldest brother gave the exam,studied, and now earning immense amounts of money and living his life in the U.S- that fact alone was enough to push me to do an MBA.

We all were at an age of uncertainty and fear. The good thing is now we are mature and know about things. Let’s pass it on, have fun and live and let live.

Cheers man!

You should not draw a conclusion when you don’t understand the argument .I never mentioned anything about age being a factor in GMAT and it does not matter whether you achieve what you want to with 2 years of exp or 15 years of exp .It’s all about reaching your goal as long as you do that .
But when it comes to CAT clarity comes lot early even when you are in college .Initially it’s about the money but slowly you will realise it’s not only about money .

That means if you're fresh out of uni, MFin is best to get for exp for E-MBA then?

Gmat is 6 years before expiry. So there is still 4 years of exp to gain after the MFin

What do you think about this approach

You really need to work on your Reading Comprehension skills.

Let’s please end the debate. That guy is just 22 and see the brighter side- he is atleast thinking about doing something with his life. Each one of us started dreaming of money and from there we came up and realized about the bigger things in life. Let him take his character development, help him if you can, leave him be if you can’t.

Who is 22? Is this a career counselling app? Coming in questioning whether there is a motivation in doing GMAT .that needs to be internalised and done before .

You want to get into IB?

Or consulting?

Then Mfin is good enough

For EU offices + London

For NA offices just do MBA skip Mfin

EMBA is senior manager networking and leadership, giving you better opportunities for C suite roles
