Should I go for MBA abroad or do it in India?

Body

Honestly, it depends on your goals, finances, and where you see yourself after the MBA. Here’s a quick breakdown I found useful:

🇮🇳 MBA in India (like IIMs, ISB, etc.):

  • Great if you want to work in India post-MBA

  • Strong placements and ROI

  • Accept freshers or people with low work ex

  • More affordable compared to most international MBAs

  • Huge alumni networks and brand value in India

🌍 MBA Abroad (US, UK, Europe, Canada):

  • Best if you want global exposure or to settle/work abroad

  • Usually need 2–5 years of work experience

  • Expensive, but can be worth it if you're targeting global roles

  • Diverse batch + international networking

  • Some countries offer post-study work visas or PR opportunities

✅ Ask yourself:

  • Where do I want to work after my MBA?

  • Do I have enough work ex for an international MBA?

  • What’s my budget or scholarship options?

  • Do I want structured placements or am I okay job hunting?

Hope this helps someone thinking about the same! Feel free to share your goals if you want specific advice.
