Hi,
To clear IAS you need to clear two levels of Examination: Preliminary & Final. For Preliminary round which will have two objective type papers which are the general studies paper and the General Aptitude Paper you would get questions from different areas so you have to read a lot of news paper informative magazines like CSR (Competition Success review) etc. this section will now test you more on decision making skills, logical and analytical abilities and the knowledge in the services in which you want to pursue your career rather than your subject knowledge. Since the preliminary exam is an elimination round the candidate should also learn to focus only on the information needed and filter out the rest.
For Mains you have to prepare for one language, English, Essay, GS and the two optional subjects(which could be any field). Further, it is on the basis of your performance in Mains, on which mainly depends the final outcome of your efforts. You should think about appearing in the Prelims only when you have had a strong grip over the Mains' subject matter.

hi Beulah, to study at a University in Nz for MBA you need to have 3 yrs work ex at a managerial or supervisory position. If you have studied through correspondence and worked during it then the experience may not be considered as the Universities look for post bachelors work experience.
If you do not have property how will you take loan? To take loan you need to pledge something to the bank sot hat they have assurance that you will return the same. If not property then you can take loan on gold or Fixed deposits.
The cost for MBA will vary from University to University. The Universities offering MBA are Victoria University of Wellington, Otago University, Canterbury Unviersity, Waikato Unviersity. But most of these will need 5 yrs work ex supervisory or managerial. Although AIS St Helens asks for only 3 yrs work ex.
Documents required to apply for admission- Class 10 and 12 marksheets and Passing certificate, sem wise or year wise marksheets, degree certificate or provsional certificate, Statement of Purpose, Letters of Recommendation(2), Work experience letters from all employers (if any), CV (if you have work ex or are applying for MBA), A copy of your passport(1st and Last Page), IELTS (6.5 min for PG courses).
