The last date for case analysis submission is 31Aug2011 .  While the best analysis gets a prize amount of Rs 25,000 /-, the bigger take away is the value add in terms of analyzing a real situation and go through the process of managerial decision making.

We are not expecting perfection from the corporates. Nor are we expecting them (or ourselves) to be saints. Its simply a matter of self interest that corporates must partner with academia, not as charity !

We cannot expect this from corporates. Now, where upto educational institutes are concerned we all know how things are going. Most of the universities give marks for filling pages and students gets marks accordingly. We need right kind of...

I think you have got a wrong impression that MBA guys are paid fat packages. In fact, its not MBA guys who are paid, its for the knowledge why so much is paid. Also not all MBA guys are paid so well. Talking about the people who were offered 1.4...
