A sincere request to all
For GD/PI sessions, please trust someone / some institute who has a background for helping others
Not a college student who cracked the exam and is still in the college / barely graduated
On TG, IG, LinkedIn; I see numerous posts from students (read influencers due to batch sizes) offering their Guidance/ Counselling/ PI services for a "minimum charge".
If and when you do get a shot; don't let it go to waste due to incompetent or insufficient guidance

Which B schools in India will accept GMAT focus edition and for which programs?
#GMAT #GMATFAQ #GMATFocus @TheQuantMentor
#GMAT #GMATFAQ #GMATFocus @TheQuantMentor
Which B - school is better?
This is a very common question that I get in groups, classroom or DMs. The answer depends on several factors such as:
1. Current graduation and future aspirations
2. Work experience or Internship experiences you have had
3. Family background - Do you support from family business etc?
4. How desperate you are to do an MBA?
I have seen students reject IMI Delhi or IMT Ghaziabad because they aspired for a better opportunity and were in no hurry to do an MBA.
I have also seen people pining for IMI Delhi or IMT Ghaziabad.
I have also had interaction with people who settled for a tier 3 college despite having a high potential because they could not wait for another year!
So, don't take random opinions online. What may suit one may not suit others!
PS: A Golden Rule - Go to every interview opportunity you do get. Convert them first and then worry about which B - school to join.

How to address "Gap year" in the interview?
1. Don't highlight the "Gap year" issue by yourself. Let the interviewer discover it and question you.
2. While it's essential to address the gap year, don't dwell on it for too long. Provide a concise and clear explanation, and then move on to discussing your qualifications and eagerness for the opportunity.
3. Be honest about the reason for your gap year. Emphasize any useful experiences that you might have gained during this time and how they make you a stronger candidate. Discuss any projects, volunteer work, or learning experiences you engaged in during the gap year to demonstrate that you used the time proactively.
4. If you used the gap year for personal development or to overcome challenges, talk about the skills you developed or the lessons you learned. This can show resilience and a commitment to self-improvement.
For detailed discussion, DM @TheQuantMentor. I will try and answer as soon as I can.

Does the type of Work Experience matters in the B school process?
During admissions NO
During placement season YES. YES. YES
See when you fill your CAT form, they only consider the amount of experience. At that point BPO, Consulting or Accounting work experience all are same.
During interviews for admission is when they take deeper interest in your profile. A better type of work experience MIGHT fetch you couple of points more.
It is during the B school Summer and Final placements that the type of experience really matters. Which will decide the type of, or if, you get shortlists and final converts.
PS: This is excluding profile based shortlisted like S P Jain offers. Those are completely dependent on your type of work experience.

What’s the best time to fill the form to get a centre of my first preference?
There is no correlation to where you get your centre vis a vis when you fill the form. The slots and centres are randomly allocation figuring in your preferences.
Fill at your convenience. Just remember that if your centre is more than 100 km from your place of residence, plan to reach there a day before. Book a room. Relax. And be in the best state of mind before the exam.
