    Dear Teja, I don't know much about that college that you have mentioned but one thing I want to say to you that if you have enough experience in this field and then you want to do MBA in the same then that's will prove a big boom to you. This experience will give a slight edge over other students to you. One important thing is if your performance during job is excellent then despite scoring low marks in entrance exam and your academics card.etc they will definitely gives you admission. So don't worry about your selection process.
    Kindly upvote the answer if you feel satisfied.
    Ask any query at anytime.
    Good Luck.

    You make yourself eligible for MBA/PGDM in Pharma & Healthcare by appearing for any one of the competitive tests like MH-CET, MAT, CAT, ATMA, GMAT and XAT. With your work experience, you get preference over non-experienced candidates. But the advantage is limited. Once you complete the course, the pharma industry offers career opportunities in brand management, marketing, strategic management, pharma advertising, digital marketing and so on.
