Hi Tushar Agarwal, without work experience admission into a MBA programme is difficult unless you are very bright. Also you can get admission in some low ranked university. If your academic scores are very good plus you have a very high GMAT score alongwith strong SOP and LORs you can still be accepted by business schools.

Hi, GMAT is mandatory for MBA admissions and is not waived off under any circumstances. You may consider taking the GRE instead of GMAT which is slightly easier too.

Hi Julep, popular ones are The Official Guide to the GMAT by GMAC, The Official Cambridge guide to IELTS, Manhattan preparation guides for GMAT, Karlan preparation guides for GMAT, Official IELTS practice materials by British Council etc. Around 3-5 months is required for preparation. You can first take a mock test, available online once you register. After you take the mock test you will know your weaknesses and areas of improvement. You can plan your study routine accordingly. Take mock tests every week and check out for online test samples on the official websites. Read a lot of journals, GK books, news etc. and keep yourself update

Hello Mayank,
If you are pursuing your Masters abroad then go ahead with GMAT or if you're pursuing in India then go ahead with CAT. Though both are worth to get the best institutes.

Both are accepted and required. GMAT and IELTS are both different. To study MBA you have to give both.

Hi Raghavan,
The scores are good, it will depend on your overall profile now and your non-academic profile. If Harvard sees you fit as per their admission process you may have a chance. You must not only have good academics but must be an all-rounder and contributor.
