Hi,
Please remember the final selection in full time MBA or PGDM program is made on the basis of:
1. Education background of the students. i.e. 50% marks in graduation.
2. Score in various management entrance tests like CAT, MAT, XAT, etc
3. Performance in group discussions and personal interview.
4. Work experience if any.
5. Other activities like participating in various event like debates, quiz, extra curricular activities, etc.
However as per your profile I would suggest you to work for 2-3 years after completing your engineering and then opting for a full time MBA or PGDM program, the advantage of this step would be that after working for few years you would know which specialization to opt in MBA that can further enhance your career prospects, however as per your profile pursuing MBA in biotechnology would be the best option for you.
Besides MBA in biotechnology you may even consider pursuing:
- General MBA program.
- MBA in hospital or health care management.

Hi,

Managing B.Tech and fashion design course together will be strenuous task as both streams are different and demand proper time. So, opt for both ONLY if you feel that you can manage.
Secondly, two regular courses can't be pursued, one should be regular and the other should be distance / short term certificate course. Accordingly, you may go for B.Tech and pursue short term fashion design course afterwards.
Decide sensibly before opting for both the courses.
