Is it true that MBA isn't a full-time course rather its a distance degree and placement is fake? Is PGDM not a regular course?

I have scored 85% in 10th, 90% in higher secondary, and graduation result hasn't come out yet. I had psychology honors in graduation.

    PGDM can be done on regular basis as well as a distance course and same goes for MBA.
    Here at Taxila, PGDM is a full time course which is approved by the All India Council of Technical Education (AICTE), which is a government body.
    It is a full time course for which the duration is 2 years and at Taxila the classes are from 9 A.M to Midnight, 6 days a week for the period of 2 years.
    Taxila is offering an industry inclined course i.e. PGDM dual specialization along with digital marketing, block chain and most importantly SAP in which 5 modules are available for the student to choose from and eventually get a global certification in the sam

    It's nothing like that. PGDM is not at all fake. PGDM can be done on regular as well as in distance, as per your choice. PGDM is equivalent to MBA.

    No, MBA is better when you done it from regular college. In college when you attend regular lectures, participate in all co-curricular activities, prepares for mock interview then MBA could be a good investment. But the only thing matters is the college from where you pursue an MBA. College plays the most important role in MBA. PGDM is also more valuable and enhance your skills when done regularly. The best college for MBA in my known is Dr. CVRU Bilaspur (https://www.cvru.ac.in/). The college also focuses on education and as well as personality development. Mock Interviews preparation is also good and helps a lot in cracking interview

    No that statement is false, because MBA and PGDM are regular courses that are master courses in India. And they have a good placement record while comparing to other courses, because most of the students who prefer PGDM will receive industry oriented skills at high level and are placed in quite good levels in the corporate world, so obviously this is a true and fare course.
