B-Schools- Beyond i-Banks

I have always wondered what are Indian B-School focussed on..??Managers..leaders....Analytics....Consultants....??

Well, seeing the trends in admission criteria of Premier B-Schools in India, I really felt it not test of attitude/aptitude but of marks and maths solving. Thanks to this criteria, most of IIMs see i-banks lining up for students. Great!! But question remain... Then what is difference between Top B-Schools and Indian B-School.

One difference I felt was selection criteria. Western B-School do care about GMAT and marks but thats not the sole criteria of judging the candidate. They see beyond that... persons ability to work on the field, enterpeneurship, social contribution.

And even students there opt for unique ideas. One such example is World’s best B-school grads opt for sarkari internships. India's planning commision is most sought after department for internships.

How many of us actually know that summer 08, RBI took in 43 students, including 13 from universities abroad, like Stanford.

I guess India is surely emerging as the destination of growth and opportunities and I feel Indian B-School should also try to focus on domestic sectors.
