Working professionals mostly opt MBA degree in correspondence. The degree will improve your career prospects. After completion of the course, you can move to senior level manager positions. You can apply for Manager Positions in government departments and banks. CIL, HLL, BSNL, etc are some of the public sector firms where you can search jobs after MBA.

It is a good choice to opt for Master in Business Administration course after completing the bachelor in business mgnt degree. Since you have scored 60 percent marks in the graduation course, there should be no issue for you to apply for entrance exams conducted for the MBA admission.


To answer your question regarding MBA correspondence. It is not usual for people to complete MBA via correspondence. In fact a lot of people apply for MBA correspondance while doing job. An MBA degree in regular or correspondence holds same value when applying for the job. What matters is how much marks you have scored at the university.


If you complete the MBA course, it certainly going to help you in career. You can apply for good jobs with better pay package after completing MBA. Therefore my recommendation is that you are on right track. Go for the MBA correspondence course.



To apply for the MBA course, you are required to appear in the entrance exam. The choice simply is yours. You can choose to appear for Common Admission Test (CAT) or the other major entrance exam called Management Aptitude Test (MAT). There are few others entrance exams as well. Since you have scored 60 percent marks in BBM, you are eligible for all the MBA entrance exams. This is not gonna be a issue.



The requirement for Common Admission Test is 50 percent marks in graduation course for General candidates and 45 percent marks for SC/ST candidates. On the other hand for Management Aptitude Test the only requirement is graduation degree. There is no percentage criteria.



However if appearing for the Common Admission Test, you should know that the procedure of applying for IIM Distance Learning MBA program is quite different. You would need to require at least 5 years of working experience in order to be eligible. Which I don't think you would have considering you recently completed the graduation course. The requirement varies from each IIM therefore do check with them before applying.
