dinesh : IS THIS IIM TAG REALLY THAT IMPORTANT? I KNOW IT IS GREAT TO HAVE TOP 5 IIM CONVERTS. BUT IS IT REALLY WORTH GIVING UP COLLEGES LIKE SIBM, NMIMS OR MICA FOR IIM UDAIPUR, RAIPUR ETC? WILL THE TAG MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE?
srinivasbelvi : New IIMs have very goo growth potential in them

piyushh : IIT DELHI VS MICA FOR MARKETING? ENGG. FRESHER

srinivasbelvi : I suggest you to bet on IIM-Ranchi

donaldtrump : WOULD CFA LEVEL 1 AND 2 SUFFICE TO STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD FOR FIN PROFILES? OR IS THERE ANY OTHER CERTIFICATION THAT WOULD HELP?
