Ans: If you get admission to top B schools like the top IIMs, then banks will readily give you loan and you will earn enough to repay in short duration of time after your graduation. Also these colleges may have scholarships. You will come under EWS candidate (if you have the required certificate) and that could help you get admission to a good college.

I am a foreign medical graduate. I graduated 6 months ago. I would like to know about the scope of doing mba after mbbs. Is it something you would suggest. Can a person who hasnt passed fmge get admission in mba in india?

Ans: If you are interested in Management then you can do MBA. FMGE is not required as long as you have the degree. There are MBBS students who have done MBA and moved to industries like Healthcare consulting, Pharma, Hospital Management, etc and there are others who have moved outside the industry to work in Investment Banking, Consulting and other roles. You can choose the career based on your interest.

Hello, I am currently 29 years old, 2 years work experience, 2 years gap due to an accident, now want to move on in life and pursue MBA. Would it be a good idea to take on CAT 2025 and other MBA related exams

Ans: Can take up CAT, but I would recommend you to do so along with a full time job else the gap would be bigger which is not recommended. Can look at doing 1 year MBA from Great Lakes or similar colleges where you need 2 years work experience.
