Are you a management aspirant? Charted out your study and career roadmap yet? If the answer is yes then, it is expected out of you that you must be ready with a list of management entrance exams to take and also with a list of your dream B-Schools.

Going ahead of dream B-schools, have you really looked beyond your aspirations and justified your choices? If not then, it is good to rationalize your goals and aim at it with a more informed view.

From the time when you start preparing for the various management entrance exams such as, CAT, XAT, MAT, CMAT, IIFT, IRMA, TISS, SNAP etc., to the time you actually end up taking close calls on choosing one of the B-Schools, you end up hearing several names. But, it is important to follow a systematic way by considering all the important factors in order to make the final choice.

Keeping India as your destination for MBA or masters in management, we have made a list of B-schools.

Factors basis which the B-Schools were slotted:

• Placement
• Fee
• Location
• Quality of faculty
• Courses
• Brand image
• Life on campus of the institute, etc.

These parameters helped us categorize the B-Schools in three slots namely, Top 10, Slot-2 and Slot-3.

However, your final choice of a B-School is likely to lie upon your management exam score (percentile or marks), your clearance of other rounds such as the Group Discussion (GD), Written Ability Test (WAT) or a Personal Interview (PI) and then on the factors that are most important to you.
