This is the time to make resolutions! The charm of resolutions is that we know that we may never keep them, yet we make fanciful ones. Our resolutions reflect the ‘ideal us’– people we aspire to be, but fail to become; they lay bare some of our deep-rooted weaknesses. In 2018, why not overcome those failings and become the very individual each one of us wants to be – and be a little stronger than we were earlier? The beginning of 2018 is crucial for many of you who have taken the CAT and other exams. You are now looking forward to higher education in management and towards a fulfilling career. You will be going through the GD-WAT-PI rounds of different management colleges, which is the final stage of selection to your dream B-school. So make sure you leave no stone unturned to give your best to do well. In this Annual Special Issue of Advanc’edge MBA, we bring to you a wide range of B-schools with their wide array of programmes. It is essential to follow your own instincts and opt for the one that suits your interests, inclinations and potential. Do not blindly take up what others are pursuing. Use your own intelligence and discretion while choosing the institute that is the best one for you. Unfortunately, for a few of you, the new year may be tinged with sadness if you don’t get that high score in the CAT. Coming to terms with that truth will be tough, but remember, failures are the pillars of success. You may not have tried hard enough, or perhaps tried and didn’t quite succeed. Whatever it may be, this is not the end of the road. This temporary setback could actually turn out to be an opportunity in disguise to explore other lucrative options, like selecting some other course of study, going for an MBA in foreign universities, or taking the CAT again with renewed vigour! This is a new year, a new beginning, a time for newer options and opportunities. So start off the year with an extra dose of energy and passion. The world is waiting. Go conquer it!

Top ten institutes in India to be an entrepreneur An MBA can increase chances of being successful at developing any business idea and launch it. Amarendra Singh, Business Head, Find Your Institute (gofyi.in), lists the top-10 institutes in India, where you can pursue entrepreneurship specialisation at Master’s level.

www.advancedge.com

e have often been asked by budding entrepreneurs whether they should pursue an MBA education at all. As such, doing an MBA means an investment of 2 years of your time, tuition and other expenses. Is that kind of investment worth it, they ask. Who has not heard of Steve Jobs, who started in a garage and created an empire called Apple. While, it is true that a few individuals have created wildly successful businesses from their garage, ‘without a business degree’, this should not be taken as a norm. One must keep in mind that over 90% of all start-ups fail. That is a fact. But if you have the right kind of tools and support system to put you among that 10% bracket, would you not take it? ‘I want to work on my start-up idea. Should I pursue an MBA?’ Are you asking this same question



right now? In this article, we give you the top-10 institutes, which provide the right environment to groom you as a successful entrepreneur. In this article, we try to bring forth the top10 institutes in India, where you can pursue entrepreneurship specialisation at Master’s level or want to make their own businesses a reality. We also showcase what facilities these institutes offer to the students wishing to bring their start-ups to life.

Nature’s ethereal charms Overhead was one long canopy of snowy fragrant bloom. Below the boughs the air was full of a purple twilight and far ahead a glimpse of painted sunset sky shone like a great rose window at the end of a cathedral aisle. Its beauty seemed to strike the child dumb. She leaned back in the buggy, her thin hands clasped before her, her face lifted rapturously to the white splendour above. Even when they had passed out and were driving down the long slope to Newbridge she never moved or spoke. Still with rapt face she gazed afar into the sunset west, with eyes that saw visions trooping splendidly across that glowing background. Through Newbridge, a bustling little village where dogs barked at them and small boys hooted and curious faces peered from the windows, they drove, still in silence.
