Most common mistakes committed by MBA-CET aspirants esp. from Solapur:
If your target is to get into any good/worthwhile institute, you need to start preparing as early as possible. There are colleges which give you admission for MBA at any score in CET, but you will only be wasting your time and money studying MBA at these colleges. Like it is true for any competitive exam, you need to give your best shot to get a seat at a reputed institute.
Believing just watching random YouTube videos or solving from a book will prepare them for the exam.
A lot of videos on YouTube are put for promotion. These videos sometimes have content which is not relevant to the exam, but nevertheless impress students. Many students believe time spent watching YouTube videos is time spent studying. However, such passive studying doesn’t help much. Yes, if you are not clear with one particular concept, then you can watch one or two videos on the same to clarify that concept (assuming you will find relevant stuff). But watching videos after videos is just a waste of time. Having said that, some content on YouTube can be really helpful, if you use the website smartly.
As of today, books available in the market do not have proper content tailored for MBA-CET. Referring to new or 1-2-year-old CET/banking study material of any reputed coaching institute is a better option (assuming you don’t have CAT material of these institutes). Also, solving questions form the study material is just the beginning. Adapting to the best methods of solving, solving mocks, analysing them, fine-tuning your strategy, working on your weak areas, taking inputs from experts, etc. are some of the many important aspects you need to work on.
Several students realize the above things very late and then come to us for help.
If you are targeting top colleges, it is always recommended you prepare for CAT. CAT is the mother of all management exams in the country. Also, if you are targeting a top college like JBIMS, remember your competition is with students who aim high and who will give CAT. Studying at a higher level for CAT surely helps in getting a great score at CET, provided you learn some CET specific skills.
Quick fixes and strategies to get marks without studying attract a lot of students. Note these things don’t work in the actual exam. Some classes advertise ‘mock test series’ or ‘classroom programs’ like you can’t do without them. But the truth is, you can join any one of the few good institutes available. Instead of going by the brand name, check who is going to teach you, what is the genuine student feedback etc. A great mentor can help you in multiple ways to get a great score. Even bright students agree beyond a certain level you need a mentor to do well. Then of course, if you are not going to study then, nothing is gonna help.
These myths mainly are because “Sharmaji ke bete ne not so good b-school se MBA kiya hai”. Then your parents and friends are going to say, don’t do an MBA, it is useless. Whereas, if Sharmaji’s son has done MBA from a top b-school, then they will say forget everything and do an MBA from a reputed b-school, your life will change.
Joining coaching at a place just because it's close to your house or that teacher is good in some other subject or is working under a big brand, will waste your time and money. Compared to these, there is a lot of difference in the way a 99+%iler, a dedicated mainstream MBA entrance aptitude trainer teaches you. Evaluate the options you have carefully. Evaluate based on faculty's relevant qualification, experience, the support provided, past results etc.
