MBA basics

The MBA is perhaps the most coveted course in today's world. This course tops the list of courses almost in all the developed and developing countries across the globe. The enthusiasm for the course has brought in many small private institutes etc. to offer this course. However, only those students who have obtained the MBA degree from some recognized eminent university find the best of placements. So the institute or the university is the first factor for a successful career in this field. This article will educate you about the various issues like finance, strategy to study, interview etc. related to choosing MBA as a profession.

� In today's competitive world there are no shortcuts. The student willing to take admission in one of the best institutes either in Asia or abroad, need to study hard and get the good grades. 3.0 to 4.0 are the minimum grades required at the undergraduate grade point average (GPA).

� Most of the MBA schools or colleges adjudicate the caliber of the student via the GMAT or The Graduate Management Admissions Test exam. This test is to estimate the individual's knowledge of English, Math and Analytical writing skills. The verbal or English section comprises of 41 questions to be answered within 75 minutes. The questions like correcting the hidden grammatical mistakes etc. The Math section has 37 questions and same 75 minutes. Questions are on various mathematical topics like percentage, ratio and so forth. The writing analysis is based on writing two essays on different issues.


� The school and university depend on the grades that you get in the exam. Good grades will fetch you a deemed university while poor ones may not.

� MBA programs are full time and part time and within this program there are many choices. Like you can take up finance management, HR, etc. it is at the discretion of the student to decide which course to go for.


� Once you have made a preference for the course, the time comes to look at the fee structure. Usually the MBA schools charge a high fee which is not within the reach of students. In this case they look for other financial aids. Many schools offer scholarships, grants etc. that can be looked up to. Else the loan facility is always available. The loan providing banks and companies also consider the grades and the institution that recommends the name of the student. The successful schools are known for producing productive students who can repay the loan conveniently with their salaries.

The FAFSA or the Free Application for Federal Students, loan offered by the federal government is doing remarkable job in this area. However, due to the popularity of the loan, the application should be sent as soon as possible.

� Many MBA schools ask for recommendation letters. This is in order to justify a student's authenticity. In this case the letter should be taken by an honored and known authority whose recommendation lifts your name in the eyes of its seekers.

� The school life is followed by hunt for a job. If you have passed from a top most school, job is not an issue; still you need to be prepared to win your contenders. When going for an interview wear decent clothes that are not too jazzy and funky and colorful. Practice properly with a friend or family member before the day of interview. Don't forget to take a copy of resume and cover letter along with your certificates. You need to be familiar with each and every word of your resume and cover letter. Don't be nervous and maintain a calm composure. Try replying in a prudent manner to all their questions. Even if you make a mistake, don't let it affect your rest of the answers and your attitude.



So go ahead and chase your dreams!

Scope of MBA in Pakistan

MBA stands for Masters of Business Administration and it offers a post graduate
degree. There is tremendous significance of MBA in today’s world. With
increasing business and communication due to globalization, liberalization and
privatization, more and more companies sought after world class equipped
knowledgeable managers that have full hands on experience before they enter an
organization. This is purely because companies do not want to waste their time
training individuals. They want managers who can contribute to the organization
directly from day one. An MBA program offers all these benefits and hence it
deserves its due importance.



All the B-schools give you requisite knowledge about business and its related
administration. As an entry level MBA student, one learns so much about business
strategies, various types of industries, their functioning techniques and
operations that one can actually feel the difference within oneself!



An MBA involves many hands on project experiences, assignments, internships etc.
Due to this a student is fully equipped with all the necessary skills that a
manager should possess. These skills helps one to become an expert in one own
field and can help him or her to become a leader. Because one requires some kind
of competency to be able to perform on these entrance tests and interviews,
there are many coaching classes that offer specialized coaching for MBA

Research itself shows that MBA students are able to deliver and perform than
students without the MBA degree. Also, the significance of MBA in today’s world
has grown simply because of the intense competition that each company faces.
With increasing salary packages, the expectations from an employee have also
increased across all industries.



It is purely due to this significance that more and more B-schools are offering
varied kinds of MBA with different electives and specializations! The scope of
MBA is indeed vivid!



There are various MBA colleges in Pakistan that can help you enhance your
management and communication skills, but I recommend that if your are planning
to be a business student go for reputable university like
IQRA University Karachi, they have the best
faculty which will enhance your expertise and professional level and groom you
to be a part of professional organizations, A long list of inspirational
quotations can also help to boost your morale.

Karachi Stock Exchange 100 Index (KSE-100 Index) is a benchmark used to compare prices over a period of time, companies with the highest market capitalization are selected. However, to ensure full market representation, the company with the highest market capitalization from each sector is also included.

The Karachi Stock Exchange has launched the KSE-30 Index with base value of 10,000 points, formally implemented from Friday, September 1, 2006. The main feature of this index that makes it different from other indices are:

KSE-30 index is based only on the free-float of shares, rather than on the basis of paid-up capital.

The other indices in Karachi Stock Exchange represents total return of the market. That is, when a company announces a dividend, the other indices at KSE are not reduced/adjusted for that amount of dividend (whether cash or bonus).Whereas, KSE-30 Index is adjusted for dividends and right shares.

4: What are the inclusion criteria in 100 indexes?


COMPUTATION METHOD

1. OBJECTIVE & DESCRIPTION

The primary objective of the KSE100 index is to have a benchmark by which the stock price performance can be compared to over a period of time. In particular, the KSE 100 is designed to provide investors with a sense of how the Pakistan equity market is performing. Thus, the KSE100 is similar to other indicators that track various sector of the Pakistan economic activity such as the gross national product, consumer price index, etc.

2. COMPOSITION OF THE KSE100 INDEX

The KSE100 contains a representative sample of common stock that trade on the Karachi Stock Exchange. The KSE stocks that comprise the index have a total market value of around Rs. 1,197 Billion compared to total market value of Rs. 1,365 Billion for over 679 stocks listed on the Karachi Stock Exchange. This means that the KSE100 Index represents 88 percent of the total market capitalization of the Karachi Stock Exchange, as of 27th February, 2004.

3. STOCK SELECTION RULES

The selection criteria for stock inclusion in the recomposed KSE100 Index are:

Rule # 1: Largest market capitalization in each of the 34 Karachi Stock Exchange sectors excluding open-end Mutual Fund Sector.

Rule # 2: The remaining index places (in this case 66) are taken up by the largest market capitalization companies in descending order.

A number of the 34 top sector companies may also qualify for inclusion on the basis of their market capitalization. In other words, companies may qualify solely under rule 1, solely under rule 2, or under both.

The fact that the sector rule is identified as Rule 1 does not imply that it is more important, only that the nature of the selection process is such that it is the screening that is done first.
