What should I do among MBA or M.Tech?
Asked about XLRI Xavier School of Management - Postgraduate Diploma in Business Management (PGDBM)

You can do any of the courses among MBA or M.Tech. Both the courses are good. In order to pursue MBA from IIMs you need to crack CAT exam with good rank where as for M.Tech you need to crack GATE exam with good rank to take admission in IITS.

Dear aspirant,
Glad to meet you.
If you are confused between MBA or MTech, the best way to decide is highlighting your career goals and interests. If you want to study a business degree after completing BTech, the MBA is the right choice and if you aim to specialise in a certain Engineering specialisation, then MTech after BTech is the best choice. While both these courses require students to crack certain entrance exam like GMAT for MBA and GATE for MTech, there are various alternatives available for such exams. There are also many universities in India and abroad which offer MTech without GATE such as Aligarh Muslim University (AMU), U...more -
Both course are good. It depends on your interest, both are difficult, and there are different criteria to take admission. For admission in M.Tech, you need to crack GATE and syllabus is fully technical. For admission in MBA you need to crack, CAT XAT GMAT and other similar exam and syllabus is not technical. -
Go for MBA if you want to make a career in the management field(managerial, entrepreneur, etc). Else, go for M. Tech if you're interested in the technical field(developer, coder, tester, etc). -
If u want to join a company or start ur own business then MBA is better. but if u want to go in teaching line. then better to go for MTech
