GMAT Accepting B-Schools in India

The Graduate Management Admission Test is a computer adaptive test (CAT) which assesses a person's analytical, writing, quantitative, verbal, and reading skills in standard written English in preparation for being admitted into a graduate management program, such as an MBA.

GMAT is a registered trademark of the Graduate Management Admission Council. More than 6,000 programs offered by more than 2,100 universities and institutions use the GMAT exam as part of the selection criteria for their programs site. Business schools use the test as a criterion for admission into a wide range of graduate management programs, including MBA, Master of Accountancy, and Master of Finance programs.

The GMAT exam is administered in standardized test centers in 112 countries around the world. On June 5, 2012, the Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC) introduced an integrated reasoning section to the exam that is designed to measure a test taker’s ability to evaluate data presented in new formats and multiple sources.

GMAC continues to perform validity studies to statistically verify that the exam predicts success in business school programs. According to a survey conducted by Kaplan Test Prep, the GMAT is still the number one choice for MBA aspirants despite the increasing acceptability of GRE scores.

In India, the GMAT exam is accepted for admissions at more than 200 programs offered at over 90 business schools.

How to choose an Engineering Branch?

Every year, after class 12th final examination, millions of students in India have a hard time selecting the right engineering college and engineering program or branch that will open doors to an exciting career. Since long, engineering has been the most preferred & “rest assured” choice for a professional career. It has been time and again proved that engineers are highly versatile when it comes to identifying employment. We have seen engineers getting into multifarious career ventures like creating a milk revolution, telecom revolution or may be becoming a politician, an author, a cricketer or even a magician.

Getting an engineering degree was once like a dream achieved, today it is no more a lucrative profession to pursue. The story beyond engineering college is not very encouraging these days because jobs do not come automatically to the fresh pass out engineers. A very important question to be answered is the reason why are these many unemployable engineers churned out year on year?

Mechanical, Mechatronics, EEE, Electrical, Computer Science, IT or something else?; there are hundred plus varieties of engineering branches and sub branches available in the prospectus to select from. Deciding upon the right engineering branch is too tricky for both students and their parents. "It is just like medicines; every composition has some value and is helpful to cure some or the other illness but this happens only when the doctor reads the symptoms rightly and prescribe the right medicine. Likewise all engineering branches lead to success - what is required is to have the right match.”  The need is to choose the branch as per the interest, aptitude and ability of the student. Selecting a branch of engineering also depends on the students career planning. It is must that students should be able to evaluate their inherent personality traits and match it against those which may be the mandatory determinants for success in any particular branch of engineering.

There are potentially bad reasons to pick a program, including:
1) it’s the most competitive for admission
2) family/friends say it’s the “best”
3) some website says it’s the best paid, or has the best career prospects

These are bad reasons, especially if your interests and aptitude don’t align with the choice.  Imagine sitting in classes where everyone else is keen on the material and projects,  and you’re not.  It’s probably not going to go well.  Every year we get a few of these cases.

Here are a few tips to wisely select the right branch of engineering :

The big dilemma: Branch or College?
My take: both are important, branch as well as the college and you have to be really fortunate to be the one to get both. Nevertheless in a situation where one has to make a choice, I suggest the students to first weigh the options available with them and research the credentials of the institute thoroughly. Study the college websites and ensure the basics of accreditation etc to be in place. You have all the rights to ask for these details. Review the past performance of the institute in terms of placements, teaching faculty and infrastructure. Even if the institute which comes your way might not be as rated as the top notch institutions, I would still suggest giving more numbers to the branch of your choice. Faculties keep moving from one college to another and down the list institutes keep moving up in order if the management’s vision is right.

Stick to your interest
Many children get compelled either by parents or by peers to select some particular branch of engineering. All such students should take into cognizance the fact that future scope would be worthwhile only when you have the desired aptitude to work in the particular field. The fact remains that every branch brings about decent set of opportunities. However if you end up selecting a branch only on the basis of presumed job prospects, irrespective of your interest,  it might not lead you anywhere.

Look beyond four years
Engineering degree is not the end of journey for most of the students. A lot many students prepare for post graduation either in engineering or administration or management. It would be wise to plan for future and weigh the options of higher education, coaching etc available in the city where the institute is located. Students should try to understand the life after graduation thoroughly. Every branch of engineering terminates into a specific job role. Before selecting a branch of engineering students should try and meet as many engineering professionals as possible and understand their lifestyle and career prospects. This will give them better clarity about the profession and enable them to take the right decision.

FINAL WORD
All branches of engineering have the potential to deliver a great future to the student. More than selection of the institute it is the selection of the right branch which is critical. Before finalizing on any institute a student should necessarily be satisfied with the institution’s accreditation status. Understand & analyse your aptitude, interest & skills and apply these details to select the right branch of engineering. Where ever required, do not hesitate to take professional help to select the right branch and the right institute.

Taking our series on specialization wise Engineering Colleges Rankings for the year 2014 ahead, Today we are going provide you the list of Top Engineering Colleges for Mechanical Engineering in India.

Mechanical engineering is one of the oldest branches of engineering. It is also referred to as the ‘mother’ branch of engineering. Mechanical engineering is really a broad field of engineering because of its application. It has application right from manufacturing plants, vehicles, ships, robots, heating and cooling systems, aircrafts, even in medical devices. This course is available in almost all engineering colleges across India.

Mechanical engineers have to deal with concepts such as mechanics, thermodynamics, robotics, kinematics, structural analysis, electricity, fluid mechanics and many others.

Mechanical engineers use these core principles along with tools like computer-aided engineering, and product lifecycle management to design and analyze manufacturing plants, industrial equipment and machinery, heating and cooling systems, transport systems, aircraft, watercraft, robotics, medical devices, weapons, and others.

Career Prospects in Mechanical Engineering
Mechanical Engineering have good prospects in industry as well as higher studies. Mechanical engineers  work in the automotive, aerospace, chemical, computer, communication, paper, and power generation  industries. Nowadays the scope of mechanical engineering is expanding beyond its traditional boundaries. Mechanical engineers are focussing their attention towards new areas of research such as nanotechnology, development of composite materials, biomedical applications, environmental conservation, etc.
