Strongly disagree and students must have few years of work experience before taking up their Post Graduate programs to get exposed to real life work experience and that is why in most developed countries none can join MBA programs without 2-3 years work experience. It is applicable to most PG progra

BCom is a good qualification for getting a job, immediately, if you are stationed in a place like Delhi. It doesn't mean that one gets a permanent job and a settled feeling. Students should aim for an overall growth of mind and personality. Some Degree and some education doesn't lead them anywhere.
