Though all the above colleges help you in shaping your dreams for MBA but let me take LPU as an example to explain you the things in detail. The eligibility in LPU is Let me share with you interview competencies that are tested as part of MBA interviews in LPU. The various parameters includes Fluency, Grammatical errors, elaboration of the concept, Clarity in thought process, Confidence, General Awareness, and leadership quality. In LPU when you sit for an MBA interview there are 2 panelists one from the core domain and the other from soft skills to assess you on speaking skills. Both the panelists will be rating you on the competency and a score will be generated. On the basis of the cut-off score only you will be considered as qualified or not. Hence, whatever is the specialisation that you are wishing to opt for the faculty of the core domain will be checking you on that and keeping in mind the above competencies stated. And Yes, you will be checked about the General Awareness so you need to keep yourself up to date. You will be asked questions related to your graduation degree and what made you go for MBA as well. So, kindly prepare the justification for that. So, all the best. Stay confident and answer the questions logically keeping the above-stated factors in mind. As what questions will come your way depend upon the panelists but the factors on which you are going to be tested remain the same. Some common guidelines for appearing for Interview. 1. Ensure the web camera is working fine 2. You audio piece equipment needs to be working fine. 3. Test the audio and video before appearing for interview. 4. There should not be anyone else in the room. 5. Find a quiet place around. 6. Keep the camera at a steady position. 7. Do not sound too casual I hope this helps you in making choice.

Well when you are selecting any Institute for MBA try to check 3 things about the Institute: 1. Its accreditation and ranking 2. Its placement record 3. Its curriculum and pedagogy The central reason is very clear, the fact that we pursue an MBA is for better job prospects and growth.
