Also what are the basic skills that they can develop before going for an MBA. Lastly how can we approach professors from some of these top Mba Colleges for a research internship etc after gaining skills? Would love to hear from you. Thanks and keep inspiring.

Akshat, please make a video on the following topics, if possible - 1) Summer School at top universities abroad 2) Any live class programs offered by B Schools like Insead for undergraduates etc 3) How can undergrads get experience at some of the best schools such as in the form of Research, or a program or some conference like HPAIR

[@SaiPavankumar1]

Akshat. Thanks for the video. Just a suggestion based the videos you created so far. Most of the times you talked about Consulting, Finance & Technology as the main career options post MBA. It will be great if you could focus on others as well like Marketing, Operations, Finance apart from Investment etc. Also, I always wonder why do companies go for consulting companies like McKinsey etc for some problems while they also have a management team within the company who are also MBA grads.

[@securidyssecuridy1191]

I think you answered my question without asking that y linkedin link shows on every video..it's rare to see on content creators & the answer is networking..👍

[@anugyachowdhary1895]

I think business schools do charge for these ELPs but it could be that a certain minimum amount would already be included in the tuition fee.

[@aashishajmera4403]

How would you differentiate between MBA outside India (insead,LSB) vs MBA from ISB,IIM

[@hmmm8187]

Great content.

[@RupanagudiRaviShankar]

Hello Mr. Akshat. Do guide our Indian MBA grads who could not make it to the top schools even in india, so that they can orient themselves to reach out to good business houses to further their career. That's to say how they should develop such skills by which they can get good if not coveted jobs. By this you will be able to help lot of them. Regards 🙏🌹

[@rishavdas6944]

Hey akshat, just a query. Are ELP's same as exchange programs? I heard that B-schools don't pay for the travel cost, if someone is going for an exchange programme.

[@kanavify]

So the opportunity to interact with the top minds is what these institutions offer. Regarding ELP I guess it’s free.

[@soumendramukhopadhyay8273]

The content is very useful..like to ser your video on 1. Guide your teen for the best option 2. How cultural change affects young adults in foreign country and how they can overcome it. 3. If any high school say class 8/9 student want to have an experience from foreign country to assess his own standard..is it possible..if so how. 4. Teaching your 10year child value of humanity..

[@divyanshagarwal6704]

Hi, Akshat can you make a video on MPP degree? What is the scope in terms of career growth, salary, entrepreneurship opportunities, exit options, ROI ? What are the best colleges in India and abroad and the job opportunities thereafter? Where does it stand in todays market and companies that acknowledge this degree? What kind of work life balance one can expect and kind of work and people we meet? What kind of projects are undertaken and how does it fair against other degrees? It will be a great help for those looking for jobs in social impact careers. 🙏

1. Well there are elections for it. 2. I wanted to stay in consulting, hence that was the choice
