Having completed his BSc in Accounting from University of Maryland (USA), Kunal Jain had the impending decision at the back of his mind to choose a Master’s program that would consolidate his learning further. With a family business in real estate and automobile parts, he was sure not to join the business and wished to venture out into new waters. Therefore, after graduating, he joined KPMG in in New York to pursue a corporate career path. It was later, after completing three years at the firm, when he joined the Global MBA (Finance) program in 2009 to increase his knowledge base with the higher nuances of global business management.

Many (prospective) students may have this certain bit of apprehension before joining this course, as to should I take up the offer, is it worth the price, will it actually be able to cover up the entire MBA portion in a year. I was no stranger to these and I took the plunge. Let me tell you why I will not regret it for the rest of my life. Believe me when I tell you that this course has a lot to offer. What eventually matters is how YOU make the most of it. The whole idea of a master’s program is to make you self-sufficient and self-reliant. This means – DO NOT EXPECT SPOON FEEDING (this is the difference between your graduate school and a B-school). In terms of the study material, it is up to the mark and you will feel burdened. Burdened by the SBR’s (these three letters will haunt your life), CRP/ALPs (the next 3 to haunt), submissions, deliverables, etc.
