This was very helpful for me. Thank you so much.
Love your contents 😇
Thank you for providing us ........
Dear Sameer,
I first heard abt you from ur book "beyond the MBA hype" where you have left much for the readers to decide for themselves, great book.
Ur advice matters and post CoVID online MBA scenario has been evolving for the better. 👍
Dear Sameer Sir, Your videos are very to the point and high value contents. Most of the time I see many of my questions answered and sometime during our discussions too I refer your videos to answer or support my opinions. I liked you this video to end my dilemma about online MBA. Thanks for this help and guidance.

After watching this video now I've great clarity about online MBA thanks for this video very informative.
Have you joined e-MBA?
Very well designed n explained. Thanks. I have joined online MBA-HRM from UOM. What's your advice
Thank you for sharing
Online degrees with mainly pre-recorded materials are considered as a "cash cow" by Universities offering them to as many new students as possible...but the flexibility is really good...go with the best School you can afford...reputation counts.
Sir, It's often said and I have concluded myself that Wharton and Harvard etc take only over achievers or someone who adds something special to them, Frankly after analysing my profile am from IIT(indian IT male) category working in a VC funded startup since 4 yrs but still feel that this profile is no where close to get to Those top B.schools...can you please comment about some good B school which should I target, I want to get into management roles be that at FAANG OR Investment Banking firms in Europe or US?
It sure helps to have spikes in the profile - whether it's academic, professional or extra curriculars. But if you have an overall strong profile, don't let assumptions discourage you, Also make sure you spread the mix of schools across various risk/difficulty categories.
Hi Sameer. can you tell if a three or four year old GMAT score have a negative effect or not as good enough as the latest one? I’m going to graduate in june, and want to give my GMAT in September, gain 2-3 years of work experience and then apply abroad for MBA program. Is that a good idea or not?
As long as the score is valid, you should be fine. Just make sure none of the schools on your target list has any specific requirements that deviate from the industry standards.
So good. I'm interesting about this program.
I couldn't score very well in my 12th boards because of which I did not get into a very good college.so I am very confused as to what I should do now. I wanted to ask if I do my undergrad from correspondence (distance learning) and maintain a good gpa will the fact that I did not go to a regular college effect my chances of getting into a good bschool?? Because am currently preparing for CA inter and am planning to do CFA as well in near future.
We've written about how bschools consider correspondence and distance learning degrees: www.mbacrystalball.com/blog/2014/02/17/mba-after-correspondence-courses-distance-education/
Hi sameer sir, actually i wanted to share something and didn't find anyone to as a advice from. Ive recently graduated from miranda house, econ major and I'm appearing for cfa level 1 in feb. I want to go for higher studies in finance from abroad but i really don't know when i have to consider this option. Is it the right time just after graduation or what should i do!! Also how are the options that doesn't require gmat/ other exams after cfa level 1.
Our general recommendation is to always get some experience first before considering an international degree. It helps the student absorb and appreciate the concepts better. There are some good programs that have skipped the GMAT/GRE requirements due to COVID. Best to recheck their requirements in the year of application. Having a good GMAT/GRE score will open up more opportunities.
Sir,
I had pretty low GPA in graduation (59.97% with 6 backlogs)
Can you suggest somethings to focus more on so that this thing might not make more impact on my profile?
We've shared some tips here to deal with low grades: www.mbacrystalball.com/blog/2015/04/13/managing-low-academic-grades-gpa-mba-applications/

@@MBACrystalBall Yes I saw the list you mentioned all are foreign universities .Can you list out some Indian mba online programs?
Our focus has mostly been on full-time international programs, so we're not too aware of the quality of Indian online options.
Hello sir ,I'm a 2nd year eco +maths student in Delhi interested in doing deferred MBA from some top tier international university. I want to join a coaching(online/offline) any where in India for prep course of GMAT. Please suggest 2-3 best coaching institutes. Please also suggest whether i should join their live classes or purchase their recorded videos .What are the pros and cons of both?. Incase you suggest recorded videos then there is another choice that i can source it from various institutes like quant from X, Verbal from Y and so on.
Self-study works well for a lot of applicants, since it allows them to pace the prep at their own speed and personalise the prep materials based on their strengths and weaknesses. Why not give that a shot first?
Many start off with the official guide and then include additional material based on their learning needs.

Visit goodreads.com and search on the topics you're interested in. You'll find several highly reviewed books. Check out their synopsis and pick the titles that catch your fancy.
Can you please provide some information regarding MSc in finance in Germany... what are the Prerequisites and job prospect??
The requirements are pretty standard - academic transcripts, test scores, essays/SoP etc. You'll find them on any official site. The essays become more important if you are looking for a career change from another industry. Jobs can be a bit difficult, more so if you can't speak German. Here's the story of someone we helped who used a German MS in Finance degree to successful break into finance.

Worth watching. Can you please provide a list of best business schools for online MBA?
We've included a few names in the video.
Dear Sameer, thank you for your insightful video.
I am a mechanical engineering graduate with
98% for class 10
89% for class 12
7.7 GPA for B-tech
Have a working experience of 5 years in Japan, I am currently involved in project management and have a PMP certification also.
I would like to pursue an MBA program, preferably while working.
What would be your best advice for me?
Be aware of the pros and cons of studying while working, and also keep your expectations in check. Don't expect the same outcome from part-time / online degrees as you would from a highly selective full-time degree.
Sir, I'm a CA student who recently completed graduation as well. I want to do an online MBA as a Plan-B with CA. I'm currently starting with 3 years compulsory articleship of CA and with that side by side doing an online MBA would be a good option, please share your thoughts, sir.
An online MBA would pale in comparison to the CA qualification. Also, it won't help much as a backup option, compared to a full time MBA.
Thank you, sir ❤️
Thank you so much for such valueable information ❤️🙌
I have seen your video how to build profile that was very helpful. Can you make separate video on how to prepare for essays and recommendations

Hey Sameer, Would really appreciate your opinion on the Master's union school of business given it's industry immersive curriculum and CXO as teachers. Whether one should join the School.
What does your research and gut-feel say, about the pros and cons?
Hi ,
According to me the pedagogy and the curriculum are at par with the best B schools but it would take time to build the brand value like other top schools
It's ultimately a personal call you'll have to take based on what you want from the investment and experience. We've shared a more detailed process on how to select the right bschool here. Hope it gives you several pointers to take the final decision. www.mbacrystalball.com/blog/2016/02/03/how-to-select-business-schools/
Good luck!
hi, i am an M.Tech-oil and gas guy with 92% and having 5 yrs oil and gas background experience. Currently planning for full time 2 yr MBA in test waiver universities, (ofcourse i m restricting myself only to few Universities). Looking for a loan/scholarship. How well my profile is suitable for the university admission w.r.t competition and securing a loan/ scholarship after admission.
Thanks for your time and consideration.
The information you've shared would be only a small fraction of what adcoms look at. Other that this, your test scores, choice of programs (and how competitive they are), the strength of your application would all contribute to the final decision. Rather than worrying about your chances, focus on each component, and work your way towards your goal.
Respected sir/ma'am,
My name is Manan Patel. I'm from Ahmedabad, Gujarat, currently, I'm pursuing an Integrated MBA in family business and entrepreneurship at Ahmedabad University, Ahmedabad. The duration of my integrated MBA program is 5 years and I've joined in 2019 so right now I'm in semester 4. I have visited your RUclips channel quite a few times and from there it encourages me to study abroad and pursue a first or second specialization in MBA. I have a huge uncertainty about whether I should apply for an MBA after getting my first MBA degree or after completing my bachelor's in the same program (Students are allowed to leave the program before 5 years with a bachelor's degree(BBA Hons) after completing the credit limit for that program). It would be very helpful for me if you can guide me on this business.
Respectfully
Manan Narendrabhai Patel
We've always been of the opinion that an MBA degree makes sense only after gaining some work experience.
Hi

Hlo sir..
I'm looking to pursue online mba ...i completed my graduation ( bsc computers) in 2017...frm then i hv been preparing for bank exams ....now i wanna pursue mba...is online mba is a btr option fr me?? Pls suggest
Can you please post this on our latest video? Easier to track and respond there.
The cons stands true in covid times as well? Now that everything is being handled from home.
The biggest cons are the lack of a highly selective admissions process and the rigour that's associated with top full-time programs, which makes the value questionable in the eyes of employers.
Hi sir,
Is it advisable to get admission for eMBA through 'Great Learning'?
We don't know anyone who's gone for it.
Sir is it better to have a btech or bba or bcom for an international and national mba programs
Btech will open up more doors since many bschools abroad ask for 16 years of education.

I am working as a 2nd officer for Scorpio Tankers for 12 months as of now... I've also worked as 3rd Officer for a span of a 18 months and a deck cadet for a span of 12 months at Scorpio Tankers... I mostly work on international vessels and I've worked with atleast 15+ nationalities as of now... I've a work experience of more than 3.5 years as of now and I'm tired of staying on a ship... As a child I've always wanted to do mba in finance or consulting... So please tell me am I eligible to apply for a mba program in consulting or finance from University of Melbourne or Judge Business School as I've a three year bachelor's degree and it's not in engineering also I don't have any experience of woking in a firm.... I don't mind staying 1 more year on board just to make my work experience exceed 4+ years... Please Reply... BTW You and your videoes are awesome...
You'll find several stories on our blog of sailors who've gone for MBA programs and moved to shore jobs. But before you take the plunge, get in touch with your target programs to check for eligibility, rather than relying on what others think. Their policies keep evolving, and they sometimes also take the call on a case-by-case basis.
@@MBACrystalBall thankyou... I'll definitely check your blog
Hello Sameer,
I’m looking for pursuing MBA in top tier business schools either in USA (preferred) or India, what would be some best choice in regards to my profile plus work experience, Gre/ GMAT, gpa, etc. let me brief you about myself, I’m holding BE in mechanical and MS in Computer science (USA). Also, I’ve almost 2 years of experience in IT.
Your work experience would be on the lower side, considering most of your 'rivals' will have double the experience at the time of experience. Might be good to be patient and build your profile for a year or two more before applying.
@@MBACrystalBall I gussed it Right. i will continue my job, but what else i could do meanwhile to reinforce my profile? such as GRE/GMAT prep, some courses, volunteering etc.

It's not a good idea to juggle too many things. You'll just end up with degrees minus the real takeaways and lessons.
Sir,
Do you have a list of universities which provide an Online MBA which are in top 100 and are pretty affordable as I just want to do it..
Sorry, but we don't have such a list. Before you spend a fortune on any program, you can test the waters with this one to see if the online model fits your learning style: www.mbacrystalball.com/online-courses/mini-mba-online/
Sir, i jusy want to know from which online mba university can we interact with our fellowmates
The candidates we work with don't target online degrees, so we're not too clued into that domain. You could check with students who're currently enrolled in the programs you're interested in.
Sir , can I add those online courses in coursera in my educational qualifications so as to cover up that 16 years of education which is required by most of the American Bschools?
Most will not consider them. Make sure you check with your target universities before you spend a lot of time and effort chasing certifications that may not matter to adcoms.

Is distance MBA from NMIMS, Mumbai through UpGrad worth it ?
We're not aware of it.
Sir in your experience, have you ever come across candidates who have completed regular MBAs from Top colleges abroad and then 10-15 years later opted for another Exec-MBA from another Top College abroad? Given the age difference (for example : an MBA with 8-10 yrs exp and then an EMBA with 20-25 years of exp)..A crowd of managers & mid career professionals vs a crowd of late career professionals like MDs & VPs. Do candidates ever go for further education beyond an MBA?
@MBA Crystal Ball what if the motivation behind this move revolves around startup business expansion in a different country, personal networking and some other elements..like some Top Bschools have recently started collaborating with various VC firms, research centers, govt organizations etc. for their entrepreneurship programs. True many of the business concepts would overlap, but the overall experience would be different, wouldn't it? Especially for someone caught in a middle management role or it's startup equivalent...they would have a different kind of cohort.
Based on what I've noticed so far:
A BBA is when a founder starts a small startup => An MSC leads to the growth of the startup to some level => An MBA leads to a larger nation wide reach (typically you meet founders, bankers, consultants & managers from all over the industry) => an EMBA finally leads to a cohort of some of the Big names of the industry, business on a larger scale, with possibilities of an IPO. Ofcourse the doctoral programs are there, but that's more focused on research of one particular topic of a business.
@MBA Crystal Ball I've been following a channel called Valuetainment headed by Patrick Bet David....and he's like the face of entrepreneurship for us. So he talks about these different levels of the game. He has a video called "Your 15 moves". He talks about the initial days when he started his business from nothing, then moved on to a phase where he was having a turnover of 5-10 million in his business, then fast forward a few years he reached new heights and turnover increased to 40-50 million. He opened up offices all across U.S.A. ...and now he's reached a point in his life where he's interviewing people like Ray Dalio, Robert Kiyosaki, the world's No 1 hacker, the head of Federal Reserve Bank, Danielle Di Martino Booth, Michael Porter, Kobe Bryant, Mark Cuban, Joe Rogan and many others. It's a different place to be in altogether. So if anyone wants to follow his footsteps but in a more traditional way, wouldn't that be possible? This is assuming, the startup thrives and successfully expands into different markets.
The big advantage of an EMBA would be that most students in the class would've reached a senior position in their industry. But not many of them would be interested in a startup at that age, as they have many more commitments and risks to take care of.
Interesting graph for Patrick. But that's not the typical story you hear. He got there because he had something that others (incl so many HBS grads) didn't.
@@MBACrystalBall True. His journey has been extraordinary. However, I did notice that ever since he came out of the Advanced leadership program at HBS ..he started expanding his channel from entrepreneurship to other things and this is when it became a media channel..he started conducting interviews, collaborating with others, making podcasts etc. I'm sure the program made a deep impact on him.
Coming to the startup bit, well if things go according to plan and the startup doesn't perish in a few years, I think by the time anyone would make it to an EMBA or a DBA, the startup would technically not be a startup anymore...I mean it's a time frame of atleast 15-20 years of business. I think it would be a proper establishment by then..I'm hoping fingers crossed. Also even if nobody from the group joins the business, there could be other benefits of having a senior cohort..for example: easier sanction of permits from the govt...thanks to a batch mate, or access to larger funds from a prominent PE firm or corporate discounts from large banking corporations thanks to a batchmate being an MD or a VP.
let's say if I have a large startup consulting business that has it's presence in multiple countries and has grown to some extent over the years...I speak to a batchmate who's handling corporate accounts at American Express or Chase or CITI. I get a better deal thanks to him..in return I pitch their products to all my clients or I approach another friend from Newark electronics and get a better deal for bulk orders of electronics parts etc...a mutual relationship...helping both parties to bond & grow together...something of that nature. This would be something early career founders would benefit from, afterall our reach is their reach. Just like we are benefitting from PBD's knowledge & connections today
All those are theoretical possibilities, but it would also depend on the specific composition of the class you are in.
my cousin has a correspondence degree and she would like to know if if she can get a online degree as a regular degree so she can work in companies demanding a full time degree. Please share your insight
If companies have clearly mentioned that they expect a full-time degree, they are unlikely to accept applications from online MBA grads.

Hello Sameer,
Good to connect! Wanted quick suggestion from you reg the GMAT.
I have already completed my master's and have 4 years of work experience. I want to fast pace my career as I know where will I be after 10 years ( for both scenarios either with PwC or if I switch to some other firm).
Hence, I planned to pursue EMBA (executive MBA) which can boost my career. It will be really helpful if you can share your experience/insight with me on this.
Assuming you aren't mixing up terminologies (EMBA vs MBA), an EMBA is meant for senior professionals who're looking for a vertical rise as opposed to a career change. Most folks in your age/experience bracket prefer going for a regular full-time MBA from an elite international bschool.
@@MBACrystalBall No. I have completed MBA ( with dual specialization in marketing and finance) and I want to now pursue Executive MBA to give boost to my career. So, does it make sense to go ahead and do it? Because that makes dual master's to my resume.
Adding degrees to the resume doesn't necessarily equate to adding value. If you already have an MBA, adding a part-time EMBA in such a short span of time, doesn't seem to be very convincing.
@@MBACrystalBall For the below vertical rise, is it just moving up the corporate ladder within the existing company and also how senior does the professional need to be?
"an EMBA is meant for senior professionals who're looking for a vertical rise"

Difficult to give a quick answer, since a lot would depend on what your friend wants from the MBA. If it's a career change, then a part-time or online MBA is unlikely to help.
@@MBACrystalBall Thankyou for your quick response. what if she wants a better profile in bank itself and not thinking about career change. What do you think can help her.
Or do you provide some career guidance option, something like career counselling
She can connect with her HR to find out what they consider for promotions within the bank. Are there any specific qualifications that they value over the others? Once she knows this, she can take an informed decision.
We do provide career counselling, but it would be better for her to explore options on her own first.
Sir,
I am 20+ years working experience in Pvt job.
Is SP JAIN EXECUTIVE DISTANCE MBA is good course for me.
Also confirm 2 Year's Distance MBA from Norse Moonjee Quality.
Which is Best for me ?
Pls guide me 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
We're not aware of their market value.
an IAS who is in the service can pursue online MBA degree??????????🙏
Why not? Unless you're referring to any specific policies in the job, what you do in your personal time and with your expense, should not be an issue.
I have been working as an automation test engineer. Having total experience of 6.5 yrs. I wish to pursue MBA but don't want to leave my job. Should I go ahead with executive online MBA? I wish to change my career path and move into BA role. Please suggest
Part-time and online MBA options are generally not as effective for career changers. So make sure you understand the pros and cons before signing up for one.

@@MBACrystalBall why is that?
Sir What do you think about Msc in IT after BBA.
Can you please tell me about Msc in IT after BBA in IT
It is possible?
What are Requirements?
Which country is best for this course?
We don't focus on those programs, so we won't be the right team to help.
@@MBACrystalBall okay
Is that any Alternative Option ?
Like I wanted to study in IT field with MBA, Could you give me some Advice in that ?
An international MBA requires several years of work experience. So it won't be right for you at this stage. You can consider MS programs. But you'll have to be clear about their eligibility and expectations, as it would be an advanced degree.
Is the online mba gives crs points for Canada pr , will we get eca done for this online mba
We don't have expertise in immigration related matters.

Hi Crystall Ball, I'm enrolled in Upgrad's Digital Marketing Programme in collaboration with MICA & I'm being offered an Online MBA with Deakin University from Upgrad itself as it shares the same programme structure. I wanted to go abroad but I don't think unless Indians get vaccinated, offline experiences in India or abroad would continue. How can I connect with you guys?
What's your query for us?
@@MBACrystalBall Need career guidance.
@@sunampanigrahi975 Hey there, I appreciate you sharing your contact but I'd rather have a mild conversation here before I call? Upgrad's online MBA right? I'm already enrolled in Upgrad's Digital Marketing Programme though.
Can We Talk Personally?? I really need to talk about Upgrad!!
@@ViRajP99 We're not aware of the program, so there's not much we can share about it.
Sir make a video uk currently position post brexit
More than Brexit, what's relevant now is the post study work visa proposal. Check that out.
I am a fresher and looking for a job meanwhile I am thinking to do online MBA from MIT PUNE. Should I go for it?
Better to focus full-time on getting some good work experience. You can always consider an MBA when you have more clarity about your career goals.
@@MBACrystalBall ok sir, thankyou.
Sir is GMAT/GRE necessary for online MBA programmes ? i have not given any of them
Some might ask for it, some will be flexible with it, and most of the others won't care. Best to check the official site to see what your target programs expect.
Sir how is mba international business at uk?
We have a separate video on MBA in UK, along with the best programs.
Sir, I'm a b.com graduate, Currently want to pursue mba But I don't want online classes so I decided to pursue after one year? Is it good?
International MBA requires several years of work experience, so it'll be too early for you.
@@MBACrystalBall I don't do MBA from international sir.
@@abinayaelangovan1011 Our focus is on international GMAT/GRE programs.
Sir, how to be a part of CEMS, please reply (i am a bba student)
You'll find the application details here: www.cems.org/cems-mim/how-to-apply
@@MBACrystalBall please make a detailed video on cems admission. Thank you
Online also you will feel that you are sitting in a classroom and you can ask Questions🙋 whenever you want
Can we join any online MBA program without any experience?
Many programs will lower their entry barriers (e.g. skipping the experience requirement) for online programs. But our recommendation is to get some experience before you consider any management degree.
@@MBACrystalBall Thanks for your advice sir
What about Distance MBA is it worth r not ? how it differ from regular MBA
Online and distance MBA are different ways of packaging it. What we've covered in the video applies to all such variations. They don't have the same takeaways yet as a full-time MBA in terms of market value and recognition.
@@MBACrystalBall tnq for the response and i completed my MBA in hospital management through distance education and i would like to be a HR is this fine or again i need to do MBA HR regular please suggest me what do next...
How about institutes in India which offer online mba
We don't have much insight into those options.
Great content and subscribed! Would love hear what you think of our grad school channel. Thank you.
Please tell me online mba special lizaction course s
Regardless of the format of the programs, the popular specialisations remain the same. Check out our video on MBA specialisations to get an idea of what these are.
If we do an online MBA with atleast 2 years of experience..... Will Abroad companies consider our resumes which mention our an online MBA degree.
Please let me know.
Can you elaborate on that? Do you mean - will international companies recruit you because you have an online MBA?
@@MBACrystalBall yes yes will they recruit ? Please make me understand briefly
The degree itself may not be sufficient to attract international recruiters, as they'd prefer hiring full-time MBA grads from within the country. Do you have any strong reason why you'd stand out from the crowd and be more valuable to those recruiters?
Sir is this online mba is beneficial to get job
In most cases, it isn't as effective as a full-time MBA.
Which is the best game for MBA?
There's no best. A lot depends on what level of complexity (or simplicity) you're looking for. Some options to check out BSG Online, Capsim Capstone, Markstrat. And our very own BizMAP which was designed more for individuals than bschools, but its interestingly being used by both.
