GCCBA, Kolkata is quite better than KIIT School of Management. Here are a few reasons:
1.GCCBA established in 1905 and KIIT School of management in 2003 so KIIT is new and GCCBA is old so obviously there are some good things in GCCBA that's why this college is running since a long time.
2.Fee Structure of KIIT University, School of Management is very high as compared to GCCBA Kolkata
3.GCCBA college is having all the world-class facilities for the betterment of the students and KIIT mainly focus on B.Tech.

Being a fresh aspirant of MBA, you should definitely work in the startup company because a startup company will make you learn from top to bottom functionalities. You will get so much of exposure in the start up's in their initial stage starting from their supply chain, their cost evolved (in advertising) and how they are making strategies in making their brand exist in the market. MNC's are already in a developed stage. They themselves are renowned. In startups, you can come up with any experiment in the strategies whereas in MNCs you have to follow their strategies.
For instance: If Nike has to make some marketing strategies then they have to follow what their top management has decided but in startups things are flexible, you can experiment your strategies.

Here are my top few suggestions:
1) Learn tables till 20.
2) Learn the values of fractions like 1/1 = 1, 1/2 = 0.5, 1/3 = 0.33 and so on till 1/30. I have learnt the shortcut for memorizing this when I was preparing for CAT. You can find it somewhere on the internet. But learn it.
3) Learn the square of numbers till 30.
4) Learn cubes of numbers till 20.
5) Learn to visualize fractions as pies (pie-charts) and then apply calculations like addition/subtractions to it.
7) Learn more Pythagorean triplets like-3,4,5 - 5,12,13 - 8,15,17 and their multiples. You must be able to identify these triplets in problems. There will always be at least one problem on triplets.
8) Learn trigonometric ratios for popular right angles triangles like-45-90-45 and 30-60-90.
9) Finally, practice a lot.
Also, remember to keep your eyes open and be alert. Did you notice that I skipped point 6?
All the best.
P.S. I got 96-97 percentile in Maths Quant for 2 consecutive years.

Students, past and present, are what any institute is all about. Faculty and staff are essential as well, but students are different in that they will forever fill a role whether they are present students or long graduated alumni. They create the university's status, which relies in large part on how successful alumni are in the real world. New graduates will have better job prospects because they went to a well-known school, and the process will continue. This is the basic benefit the newcomers and the college get. Also, such alumni communities donate willingly to their alma mater. Be it anything books, money or just precious knowledge.
During the college selection process, give careful consideration to the strength of an alumni network in your future career field and geographic region. No matter where you attend school, connecting with alumni in your area of career is a stable investment of your time and energy that can pay back dividends upon your graduation.

The choice is tough, but the point is that both the colleges are equally good. I have a friend from LSR and I can tell you from her experience that LSR teaches you a lot more than SRCC.
When it comes to placements, SRCC being the commerce-focused college provides better placements than LSR.
SRCC being ranked as the top college to pursue a course related to commerce studies for years now has proved to be the best college for both B.Com and M.Com. With cut-offs reaching the 100% mark, it has now become a dream for every student to get admission here. Founded in 1926, Sri Ram College of Commerce is known not only for its academic excellence but also for the extra-curricular opportunities it offers. The commitment to ECA, talks, seminars and academics equally good when we talk about SRCC. I would suggest SRCC any day when it comes to a better college in each and every aspect for M.Com.

Going for a private job or a government job totally depends on the individual and his/her preference. But we can see that most of the graduates of Tier-1 colleges prefer private jobs after their MBA. There are reasons for this.
Many people complained about the lazy work environment in government offices. According to them only a handful of people work diligently and complete their task within the scheduled time. You work hard; you expect appraisals for your hard work. It is a universal truth both in private and government sector. However, critiques said that in a government office, people who are working hard may often go unnoticed.
And yeah, private jobs pay higher than government jobs and in this world, everyone wants wealth. So, these drawbacks make the graduates go for the private sector.
