Also the idea that CA is more of accounting and MBA is more analytical does not hold true. MBA in fact lacks sufficient accounting knowledge while CA is equally analytical. The notion that MBA gives you overall view of business while CA doesn't is true to some extent, however it does not make a...

Having done MBA Finance, I realise that only those who have done their MBA from among the top institutes in the country get really meaningful jobs. Others get either sales or back-office operations. There are a few lucky students who get core finance jobs. Also, the colleges do not really...

Management education does teach u some basics about business. However, it is more of experience and common sense that is required to make a mark in business.

In many cases, the person who hurt you does not realise it or thinks there is nothing wrong in what he/she has done. You can definitely speak to the person and make him/her aware of ur feelings, but if the person is not ready to listen the best thing is to forgive and forget. It really brings...

Having exams is fine. The problem is students are required to write lengthy answers in exams, which requires them to nearly memorise all the points in the answer even for questions of little sense like characteristics, merits or demerits of something. Rather exams should assess the conceptual...

I think it is time that govt. should stop subsidising petrol prices as most of it is used for private transport. Diesel prices should be kept under control till high inflation is tackled.

Even though the driver's driving skills are of utmost importance, he needs to have some basic knowledge and fluency of the local language to be able to communicate with the local passengers. You cannot expect to come across a driver who does not understand the language of the region.

An employee needs to balance out salary increase and job satisfaction. Both are equally important. Also, if you are doing the same job for many years it will lead to monotony and boredom. You would want a change of job. An employee also wants social prestige which comes from the salary he...

Of course. Ultimately the career choice should depend on the person's interest and abilities. Parents can help the teen identify his areas of strengths and weaknesses and work as an eye-opener for him. But they should also consider the teen's point of view and reach a win-win solution.

It depends what you are trying to learn. If you are trying to learn some hardcore finance topics involving calculations, you will require books. But if you want to learn about latest business happenings, TV would be better in the context of visual aids, no. of expert views that can be obtained, etc.

CA definitely has much more value than an MBA. However, the pass % of CA is very low. Also the course is very demanding with regards to time, effort and stress levels. As a result, many who take up CA studies are not able to complete it. On the other hand, once you secure admission to MBA you...
