How do you choose an MBA?

What is the use of reading an MBA?

What is the use of reading an MBA? Why did you study for an MBA, on a whim, and want to understand first? When I saw that my friends and colleagues around me also read it, I followed the trend and read an MBA?

When you go to an interview for an MBA college, basically the first thing the examiner asks is, why do you want to study for an MBA and what is the use of studying for an MBA? Therefore, if you are hesitant to apply for the MBA from the beginning, then you will not be able to devote yourself to the on-the-job MBA course study in the future, and you will be fishing for two days and drying nets for three days.

We need to know what we want, what is the use of studying for an MBA? To sum up, invest in yourself. What is missing, the academic background is not enough to make up for the academic qualifications, the network is not enough to make up for the network, and the management ability is not enough to strengthen the ability.

If you have a clear understanding of these goals and know that the ultimate direction is good, then even if the truth is tortuous in the middle of the way, you must work hard to overcome it.

Studying MBA to improve academic qualifications, for many majors, many of these people have a dream of a famous school. Especially for self-examination undergraduates, technical secondary school self-examination junior colleges, high school self-examination undergraduates, etc., it is particularly important to read MBA to improve academic qualifications.

Reading MBA to expand contacts, many people have always felt that they are the best in their field, and they usually stay very comfortable in their own small circle, but when they change to a big circle, they find that there are many people who are better than themselves. I have been in contact with various industries, met some friends with relevant interests, and was able to help myself at critical moments.

Studying MBA to strengthen management ability, especially personnel management, will have many opportunities to enter large-scale management practices, how to coordinate the tasks of team members, and how to manage a group of people to work better to achieve the best results.

Studying for an MBA is not the only shortcut to your career, nor is it the only springboard for your career, so our ability in the professional field must be continuously strengthened. Studying for an MBA is just a brick boost to your career.

It is recommended to choose an MBA college that is suitable for your own development, different MBA colleges have different training directions for students, please pay attention to the professional characteristics and strengths of each school. For example, a generic MBA is suitable for people who are ready to enter the consulting or investment field, or who do not have a clear goal; If you want to manage a hospital, you can study an MBA in health services; If you want to work in the high-tech industry, you must choose a technical research school.

To take the MBA exam, choosing a school is very important.

According to the data of the past years, the MBA acceptance rate is less than 30, and the competition trend is becoming increasingly fierce. Of course, the failure of the exam is one of the reasons, but more importantly, the inaccurate choice of schools, and the waste of a hard year of preparation. Let's take a look at how to choose a school and what factors should be considered when choosing a school?

Why choose a school.

In a way, choosing a school is about setting a goal to strive for. Only when we have established this goal can we plan and work towards it. For MBA candidates, choosing a school is to enter a better platform and achieve a better self.

School selection must be deliberate.

If the school you choose is too high, you are likely to fail the exam or be forced to accept the adjustment; If the school you choose is too low, you can choose better resources, but you can only reluctantly and reluctantly go to a general college. Therefore, every MBA candidate should choose a school carefully and choose the right institution for him.

External factors in school choice.

01 High quality is preferred.

How to judge the strength of the institution? MBA colleges can be roughly divided into four tiers, the first tier nine school alliance, the second tier 985 colleges, the third tier 211 institutions, and the fourth tier others. In the fourth tier, it can be screened according to the rankings of "double non" colleges and universities in some more authoritative departments.

Note: The members of the Nine Universities Alliance are all the first batch of first-class universities in the country's "985 Project", including Peking University, Tsinghua University, Fudan University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Nanjing University, Zhejiang University, University of Science and Technology of China, Harbin Institute of Technology, and Xi'an Jiaotong University.

02 Recruitment Policy.

The recruitment policy mainly includes four aspects: enrollment number, tuition fee, early interview, and score line. Generally speaking, good schools have the confidence to admit more students and charge higher fees, but the corresponding difficulty will also increase. Special attention is required to:

Some colleges and universities that enroll students in the first year and open related majors late tend to recruit a lot of students, and the corresponding difficulty of applying for the examination will be lower, and interested students can apply for relevant colleges.

03 Understand the enrollment ratio of MBA colleges.

When choosing a school, you need to know: the program characteristics of the target institution, the score line of the written test, the application ratio and the interview information in advance. It is necessary to be clear about the strengths and weaknesses of your own excavation, evaluate your admission chances, and determine your plan for preparing for the exam.

Internal factors of school choice.

01 After graduation, how to develop?

Applying for an MBA is a way to better develop your career. Therefore, when choosing a university, it is best to work in the future city or nearby, so that you can make full use of the contacts and circles you have made in studying for the MBA, and provide the greatest convenience for your future career and life.

02 Tuition.

Part-time MBA tuition fees are generally paid in 2 or 3 years, and some institutions can also apply for tuition installments, so candidates should be clear about the details of the application before applying for the exam and choose within the tuition range that suits them.

03 Self-conditions.

Clarify whether your first education and working years meet the application standards. I quit my job to prepare for the exam, or I am preparing for the exam on the job, how much time I have to study every day, and how much effort I can put into preparing for the MBA exam.

1. Clear self-awareness.

First of all, you need to "understand yourself", students can review their own learning and career, realize what their strengths and weaknesses are, have a clear understanding of their own knowledge structure and career development, understand why they apply for the MBA, which major they want to engage in in the future, what their career plan is, etc.

A clear self-awareness is not only helpful for choosing a school, but also for the upcoming interviews and application materials.

For MBA applicants, it is generally necessary to have at least 2 years of work experience. We can look back on our studies and careers to recognize what our strengths and weaknesses are, and we also have a clear understanding of our knowledge structure and career development. It can be considered from the following aspects:

1.What do you like to do at work? (e.g. project planning, organizing offline events, conducting data analysis, creating new ideas, executing plans, helping subordinates grow, communicating with customers, etc.).

2.What is the structure of knowledge? What kind of knowledge do you want to acquire in the future? (e.g. technical expertise, quantitative analysis, strategic planning, leadership, communication, negotiation, independent thinking, team management, etc.).

3.What is the working environment like? Does it meet your expectations? (e.g., stability, challenge, innovation, rapid iteration, etc.).

4.What are the key elements that have helped you achieve success in your current career?

5.What are the professional values you are pursuing? What kind of career do you want to achieve in the future?

2. Clear career goals.

Through self-identification, it is easier to understand your strengths and what you value most, and it is easier to clarify your career goals. Generally speaking, when determining their career plan, applicants should consider what they like. What are you good at?

And what does it mean for you?

Only when a certain profession or job is what you like, can you still persevere when you encounter challenges, and generate accumulation and concentration; Only by doing what you are good at can you have the ability to do a good job and do better than others, so as to become an expert; Only by understanding the meaning of this professional work can we realize that it is worth doing on our own, and be spiritually satisfied, so as to further develop our potential.

3. Collect information about colleges and universities.

Once we know why we want to apply for an MBA, we can start gathering information about the institution. There are several ways to obtain this information, and the most direct way is to visit the institution's **query**, which will generally have a detailed introduction and a project manual available**. Or if you have time, you can visit once, have an in-depth communication with the teacher, or participate in the trial course prepared by the college to get a real experience of the MBA class.
