I think its going to be more than 5years from now for students like me who just completed 12th to get settled through a good MBA degree. I just hope within 3years other IIMs too won't put up this change.

Views on practical experience before admission in a post graduate course has already been taken by fellow experts. I want to give an opinion on reservation policies in educational institutions which are being followed for last 70 years. I think direct admission quota should not be there and instead of that a fee waiver/discount/scholarship schemes should be introduced more to create large impact. Today due to reservation of seats in engineering and management colleges many students do not feel competitive while preparing for entrance exams. Instead of allotting students under the name of various quotas to follow the policy of appeasement it is better to give admissions only to deserving students who clear the exams with percentile or cut off marks. If any thing can be given then more and more scholarships, complimentary world class soft skills training, paid job internships in various companies and to create a system which can monitor and restrict the private colleges and universities to charge exorbitant fees from students in the name of autonomy and infrastructure. Today only IIT's announced the fee hike from 90,000 rs to 2 lakhs per year. Are they doing business or fulfilling the social responsibility of creating a skilled manpower who can contribute to technical and economy progress of India.

More than the experience it will give clarity to the students in which specialization to pursue because even after graduation they have no clue about what career/job to take. Either they follow the traditional path decided by their parents or experiment with the post grad degree. Industries now require ready to work employees rather than wasting time on training them. This initiative will work in favour of both.

Yes it is definitely a good decision taken by the Institute as we know that Experience is one of the best trainer of life. Human understand much better from experience s as compared to classroom studies. The practical experiences helps us to learn from mistakes and make correct decision in life. Also a experienced students joins a Institute so learning becomes more interesting as everyone shared their experiences and others do learn about what decision one should be taking without repeating the mistake. Also Management course are just not books reading and passing the exam, it is the study based on the experience and the situations which one would face in future while making decisions. The experience of these students will help the freshers in learning from their mistakes and will be able to take correct decisions in their life and career. It's really appreciable and this policy should be adopted by all the B-Schools present in India.

It is one of the best decision IIM has taken. first of all, any post graduation courses should be allowed only after gaining minimum 3 years work experience in an organisation which is known, has brand and has legal existence. Many people to MBA without any business experience and it is expected that they should run the business as they are from reputed institutes. Learning in classroom is a different thing and applying them in real life is completely different. I completed my MBA 8 years back and again enrolled for another MBA and realised that I forgot most of the things that was taught to me. I knew the concept but nothing more than that. this means we can hardly apply anything more than 10% whatever we learn in the class. when people come with business experience and then join the classroom, they can actually relate both the things together and can perform better

I think that the concept has been taking roots for quite a few years. It is becoming a routine phenomenon making case studies in the regular classroom. This idea is catching up. Education doesn't mean acquisition of certain theory. The actual examination is applying that theory for practical purposes. Job experience for MBA is also considered vital in some elite institutions.
