Why MBA?

A million dollar question which ponders into the minds of the people preparing for entrance exams to pursue management studies and also the favorite question of the interviewers to these aspirants. A question for which no student can prepare an answer for and save it for the time of interview, a question where the views keep changing, a question whose best answer is to be spontaneous on the spot when you are faced with it keeping in mind the questions arising out of what you tell.
Thinking again why an MBA, I myself get a lot of answers inside not only for me for a lot of people. MBA is an art of administrating business, here business need not be anything related to exports/imports, stocks etc. It can vary from field to field. What does the person have before doing an MBA, he could be a engineering student, arts student, doctor, IT professional, a teacher and many more things that I am skipping for now. Any profession can be handled and managed better if you have an MBA degree (of course from a recognized and a serious b-school). The various processes of admission itself filters out people who are "eligible" for doing this. Admission tests
reflect the attitude and the aptitude of the applicants, the percentile reflect on their relative stands against one another.
Thoughts pondering about the same idea of why MBA, we can justify it as after a person has acquired technical knowledge in the field of his/her interest, it is best that the person learns something about management as well, as combining these two, the goals set forth ahead of him can be achieved in a systematic way. Management education is some thing we have all been learning from the time of birth, we learnt how to manage time to play and simultaneously do our homework, watch movies or cartoons and study at the last minute, submitting records and reports on the last minute of the last day, all those time how many of us were able to finish the tasks we had in the stipulated time without any hurry at the end. As we grow, the challenges increase and we do require training or experience when we need to manage a project or a firm. Experience is the best teacher but the time it takes is directly proportional to the amount of patience one acquires. Not all people maintain the same level of patience in an organisation from the point they started to becoming a manager of his team or organisation. Learning the art of management is no piece of cake, but the time taken is lesser and the process of selection and the program layout covers all the forms and methodologies through case studies and thus proving it worth the struggle to get into a b-school. The various opportunities that are open for people with MBA and wide open in the current world with booming population and job out-springs.
Having thought of various possibilities and points here I still feel the answer is incomplete, the answer varies from person to person. This solely signifies what I think about it. Will edit it if anything new crops up!
