  • @Kavan5797
    Voice is sooo captivating that whatever from mba crystal ball (even the text inside videos) and feeds in community rummaging in background
  • I love you Sameer, you are my best friend. Thank you for the insightful video.
  • @Eric10Cartman
    I am a MBA finance graduate with 3+ years of work experience as M&A offshore consultant. Currently 28yo and not sure if I should go for 2nd MBA from abroad or EMBA. Even interested in MiF program by LBS or Cambridge as class average exp is 6 years. Can you suggest what should be be way forward as i am very much confused right now? Want to remain in finance long term but want to change industry from M&A to capital market/risk domain. Thanks
  • @deepthivemu1367
    Hi Sameer, that was a great video. It had cleared most of my doubts on EMBA. Is the EMBA program at ISB applicable to someone with a pure technical background without managerial experience? Does it help the individual to transition to Product Management from a technical role?
  • Another good video. A request, Could you also please post videos on MBA in India as well since most of your videos cover only about pursuing an MBA abroad.
  • Sir the way you summarize is unmatched. I have been during lockdown already going through your videos. Sir I want to know about MBA for working executive if online modules would be a good choice. Eg - UCLA india PGPRO ( read your interview with UCLA management) NMIMS MBA WX - for working executive Spjimr - 21 months E MBA SP Jain global - E MBA via online mode ELO technology.
  • @aryantyagi6965
    Sir... Q1)Will I get scholarships and educational loans for an Executive MBA just like a Full Time MBA? Q2) Are GPA requirements compulsory for an Executive MBA. If so, graduation GPA or the post graduation GPA?
  • @kamalsaini2611
    Hi Sameer... I have work ex of about 13 years in a reputed financial organization in a leadership role... now I feel like making a jump in my career and not just taking the ladder... the confusion is about should I try for an IVY university abroad or apply for ISB in India. Please guide.
  • @SafiMirza
    Great work guys! Great video. Question, if accepted into a top tier EMBA program, is it still plausable or acievable to switch industry by applying for mba graduate schemes independently? Of course in this case the EMBA will be self funded or funded through a loan. Thanks
  • Hi Sameer, Great video that covers programs round the globe and also that it is a less talked about topic ! For the Indian schools there was no statistic on the average package post mba - is it because of lack of data or due to high variation ? I am interested in exploring the pgppro and pgpmax and being the best in class in India do they give good returns in Indian context?
  • @bonnyphilip8153
    Hi Sameer thanks for the video.In order to pursue an international MBA, you will have to leave your job in India. Are there eMBAs that are fulltime in that case and dont require you to be working part-time? eg: does INSEAD allow this for the GEMBA course? On the other hand, is being in your early 30s a hindrance for regular MBAs?
  • @Pratik0917
    I have seen your educational video and found it helpful. I have 10 years IT experience and wanted to move into consulting ..Was thinking if MBA degree could help me.. My Goal is to move into consulting or leadership role in IT field. Do you suggest MBA is way for me with 10+ years of experience?
