Need some unbiased career advice.
My profile:
B.Com graduate , 21 years old
ACCA Professional level student
Planning to pursue CFA
I have currently started my MBA at NMIMS Mumbai but I’m having doubts because:
The placement process/report doesn’t feel very transparent.
The batch size is very large.
I’m worried about the ROI.
The cohort seems older on average than I expected, with many students having significant work experience, and I’m concerned about how that affects placements and peer learning as a fresher.
The overall experience so far hasn’t met my expectations. I’m planning to discontinue the course as a result.
Given my profile, would you continue with NMIMS or leave and build your profile through work experience before pursuing a top MBA later?
Looking for honest opinions.
