I'm coming straight to the point, I completed my graduation (B.A- general) last year (2021). 10 and 10+2 below avarage percentage. Working as part-time broadcast Assistant in AIR. Now I want to continue my education, (MBA). Would it be really sensible for an Arts student with avarage score (throughout) studing MBA? 10th 39% 12th 54% CGPA 7.1 Can you please guide me what to do now? Which path will lead me to a better career?

Hi Sumi, "Would it be really sensible for an Arts student with an average score to go for an MBA?" "Which path will lead me to a better career?" These are questions that need to be answered by you; it is impossible for us to decide what is good for you or anyone (for that matter). We can say with some amount of certainty that there are Arts students who go for an MBA. Since MBA opens up many generalist roles, undergraduates from varying fields try their luck getting into premier B-schools. Though you have an average/below-average academic profile, you can definitely try targeting a few top-tier B-schools. To compensate for poor acads, you would need to score high on the entrance tests. We would also advise you to gather some work-ex meanwhile and build your overall profile to improve your admission chances.
