With 58 marks in MAH-CET and a 450 GMAT score, you still have good options for MBA/MMS in Operations and Supply Chain Management, especially in private and mid-tier colleges.

For today's market, Supply Chain + Analytics is one of the best combinations because industries like e-commerce, logistics, manufacturing, retail, and AI-driven operations are growing fast.

Instead of only focusing on rankings, choose a college that gives:

  • good internships,
  • industry exposure,
  • practical learning,
  • and decent placements.

Also try to learn tools like:

  • Excel,
  • Power BI,
  • SAP,
  • and Lean Six Sigma.
