Why MBA ?

5 interviews done with and 3 more to go...... its a weird time to ask this question of myself (considering the fact that just one interview panel wanted to know the answer)..... I do have this rataa rataaya answer which i won't reveal (no not bcz its too smart, but bcz its too stupid :D)...... buw wht are the actual reasons ?
1. i know i want the knowledge..... I think i never was more attracted to a subject more than my frnd's paper on Public Policy (which had this question that i loved... "What was not included in NTP 94".. no it was not an MCQ :D).....
2. And i need the brand...... One brand (my engg degree) has not been enuf..... Considering the fact that i was never much of an engr, i had to get another degree.... but yes, if nething i do love what MBA entails... and i daresay, i already know a lot more than most MBAs.... yet i need it bcz i need to get into a McK or a BCG ... (i jus hope i don't give a GPL to McK a la Ronjon)

Somehow the journey is much more interesting than the destination.... Last yr i would have given my right hand (i am offering my right hand so that the-Hand-Taker thinks i am southpaw and demands my left hand instead, and thus my right hand is saved ... phew) for more calls..... one was jus not enuf... (For some it wud have been more than enuf :D)....... But then I had done nothing to deserve even that one call.... so this yr I slogged my ass out, and lo and behold, became a BLACKI..... but now that I am where i want to be, I am not sure I want to be where i wanted to be :D .... maybe an ISB MBA would have been better... maybe i shud have joined some other consulting firm and parked my ass in the US..... damn !!... too many options.... too many choices ...... Y was i a Libran !!!

and y this rant ? it was provoked by a question I had to mail an answer to - What would do in life if money wasn't a constraint ? and for half a minute I had no answer..... and that more than anything else has been my failing......

Nice post. Trust me, even after being in an MBA college, some people are still caught wondering why EXACTLY they're doing an MBA. Some are fortunate to have a simple answer to the question: Naukri chahiye. But is that the ultimate goal?
