Hi I'm in my last year of bsc right now and I'm confused about what to do after completing bsc. Prepare for SSC CGL or do MBA from a good college? I gave neet two times simultaneously with my graduation but didn't get the required score ever so it really traumatized me when it comes to compititive exams, tho i still think ssc seems easier in compared to meet syllabus wise. I wonder if I can do MBA and prepare for government exams simultaneously? Would that be tough? What r some good colleges for MBA if I go for it ?

Ans: Can prepare for MBA entrance and Govt exams simultaneously. Write mocks of each of the exams to understand the paper pattern. Top colleges in MBA are IIM, XLRI, FMS, SPJIMR, IIFT, MDI, NMIMS, SIBM

Actually, I am 32 year male, unmarried and currently working in an Education Sector as a Content Manager/ Subject Matter Expert from the past 4 years. And, I did my BE in the year 2014 and since then I was preparing for UPSC civil services and even appeared in the interview but unfortunately didn’t tasted the success and join this industry on this basis. Whereas, I am got stagnated here and not getting much in term of salary or career growth and looking forward for doing MBA to switch my career field to analytics/Finance. I did Master in Public Administration in distance mode while I was preparing because this was my optional. Previous month, I took admission in Executive MBA from IIT Patna but unfortunately, its substandard in terms of quality and learning. I have certain doubts, Please let me help to come to the conculsion. Shall I go with the Full time MBA at 32 age by giving CAT/GMAT? Shall I opt for executive MBA from IIMs like Indore, Kashipur etc, here I have concern related to placements, considering 12 Lakh Fee? Shall I do 1 year full time PGP at IIM Indore, ISB or any good institutions for the change? Or shall I opt for CFA/FRM along with my IIT Patna Executive MBA? I am way behind my collogues and even not settled due to my UPSC unsuccessful attempts, I need to switch the filed. Please revert and help me out tin clearing my dilemma, I am really very confused right now.,
Ans: It is advisable to write GMAT and try to do Executive MBA from one of the good IIMs or XLRI. These colleges do have good placements and it could help your career. Usual requirement for these courses is minimum 5 years of work experience

hello sir, so i was a neet aspirant gave neet 2 times but did not get qualified...i was doing bsc in biology simultaneously..but the problem is i am not a regular student...all i did was give exams for bsc....now i don't know what to do....i have a thought of going for ssc cgl and then preparing for upsc if i land a job through ssc....but it would be tough to make a transition from neet ssc cgl...but im adamant to do it...please share your thoughts regarding my situation?
Ans: Hello Divyanshi.
Here is a pointwise reply to your current situation: (1) If possible, consider dropping the idea of NEET as you have tried twice but didn't succeed, (2) Focus on your B.Sc. and aim to become a regular student to achieve a high percentile in the exam. B.Sc. Biology has wide applications in both industries and academia. (3) There is no point in joining a job based on SSC as it would likely create further frustration for you. (4) Along with your B.Sc., consider learning some industry-based and computer courses if you are interested. (5) If you have a computer and a Wi-Fi connection at home, you can access many free online courses on the Coursera website. (6) You can also try for public service commission examinations while preparing for your B.Sc. (7) Recognize your strengths and the knowledge you possess, and focus your job search in that sector/area for a successful career. In this modern era, it is not difficult to find a job if someone is an expert in their field.

I had taken admission in Allen Amritsar, but now I am deciding to shift to Allenn Kota reason being almost 3 hours of travelling daily and in search of a better environment for serious study and I have 2 options now, either I can choose a batch that is already going on like which I was studying here. I would continue studying there or the second option I have is I can take a newly started batch there so that I will be I will be ahead of everyone in the batch and I will be able to cover some extra books since I've already completed, the allen modules and I'll ahead of batch. It would be beneficial for me also, and so please suggest me. What are the pros and cons of it also and I have scored 99.6% in my boards in class, 10th CBSE and expectations from everyone are so high so please give some additional advice so that I can create the best life for me so that I can achieve my dream of IIT JEE 2027 under 500 rank, I'm currently in grade 11th.
Ans: Hello dear. Moving from Amritsar to Kota does not guarantee success. Stay in a calm and quiet place with a good teaching environment. Focus on completing the syllabus on time. Regularly appear for class tests, prepare your own notes, and solve previous years' question papers. Stay in touch with past successful students for more tips. Regularly participate in online tests conducted on various platforms. Be confident in yourself. Talk less and concentrate more on studies. Use scientific methods to crack the examination. Believe in yourself. Success and a bright future are awaiting you.
Best of luck.
