Hi,
It would be wrong to generalize students' inclinations towards pursuing an MBA to one particular reason as the underlying reasons could vary greatly from individual to individual, depending upon a large number of factors. Some of the most common and popular reasons for students opting for an MBA are:
-interest towards business studies and a business based career subsequently
-better roles and/or designations at their work places with superior quality of work
-this followed by better remuneration packages and timely ownership options with the corporation
-ambition of joining family businesses or starting up on their own after acquiring quality business related knowledge and experience
-stagnation in current jobs prior to MBA
-low interest in the field of their graduation and the jobs secured subsequently
-quick growth in the corporate world to the extent of making a C-Suite officer a few years after joining the company
There could be other major factors too, that primarily drive people towards the coveted MBA Degree from the top B-Schools in the country. Also, there could be specific reasons apart from the usual ones, why an individual might want to pursue MBA.

Hi,
There are two sides to this argument, both having their own valid reasons.
Research based jobs in India are certainly less lucrative and require long term commitment to have a decent chance of arriving at quality results. This requires a lot of patience and strong orientation towards the field based on which research is being carried out.
On the other side, the corporate world offers multiple opportunities to MBAs across industries, in cross-vertical roles and as you have mentioned, pays impressive remuneration packages as well. For someone who just wishes to make a lot of money by his mid 20s itself, MBA from a top institute certainly is a far more safe and secure option.
However, this doesn't mean that people who are strongly into research work are being driven away as quite a few people (especially from IITs) stick to their field of engineering and pursue research based career in India or abroad, depending upon their interests and opportunities available to them at the particular point of time in their careers.

Hello,
CFA Program is a professional credential offered by CFA Institute to Investment and Financial professionals. After completing and passing the CFA Program one could know the analysis of academic theory, to assess current industry practice, and learn ethical and professional standards.
CFA exam has three levels, level 1, 2& 3.
Each level has its own significance and requires great determination and knowledge to clear them.
After clearing (passing) CFA level 2, one can get the jobs like :
1) investment analyst
2) financial modeling analyst
3) investment manager
4) investment research analyst
5) consumer equity analyst
6) portfolio manager
7) sales professional
One can also earn a fair amount of salary after CFA. But if you clear CFA level 3, then there is no limit in getting jobs and earning more money.

Both are good and I am not being diplomatic, I mean it. Syllabus coverage of both the courses is excellent and standard of questions asked in exams are also very good. If you are looking for starting a firm then CA has more scope then CMA for now but the scope for CMA for practice is also going to increase with GST coming into action. And for various relevant job purposes both the courses are given the same weightage in most of the cases. I know many people who are holding high level positions (related to finance etc) as a proud CMA in various government companies and Multinational Corporations. I also want to add that rumour of CMA being easy is totally false. Actually it can be said it is tougher because there are 8 papers in CMA Inter but only 7 papers in CA IPCC. One more point, there are no gaps between exams in case of CMA but in case of CA, students get one day for revision before each exam. Finally I want to conclude with saying both the courses are great in their own ways, you can go for anyone of them. Hard work together with proper strategy is the key for passing and success as well.
