GMAC on lookout for soft skills in you soon

April 18, 2012 in GMAT

India is being seen by the, Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC), the body that administers the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) for its future growth where it intends to double its presence in another five years. The way B-schools are teaching has changed recently, and hence the need for changing the GMAT format has arisen. The changes which shall become a part of the GMAT exam starting this June can be seen as the first step in developing GMAT according to the changing scenario.

First let us know what this change is and how much is it going to affect a test taker, They have removed one of the two essays in the analytical writing because was not able to give expected information regarding the candidate. They could find high correlation with first essay.After asking for feedback from approx. 740 faculties at global level, They could infer that the way business is nowadays being transacted has changed and hence need for change in teaching methods as well. So after this they thought about augmenting GMAT not only with quantitative and verbal, but also to introduce integrated reasoning. It shall be a new section of 30 minutes duration as replacement of the removed analytical writing assessment, to be scored separately.

What’ next for GMAC?
GMAC was earlier not being accepted at the global level but it is now. They have now undergone into strategic alliance partnerships, but those old principles still apply, what they now think about is innovation in line with the trends, they’re trying to offer to the business school community more than a very strong test, developing on areas where they can diversify themselves and one such has than that so they is the whole question of soft skills, non-cognitive skills. That whole concept is new and fascinating as it means they’re now looking forward to new assessments, new instruments to add greater value to enterprises and to the public sector.They’ve been good at assesment so now they are looking forward into these areas as well working on the content so that they can expand their global reach soon which does mean that now GMAC would develop ways on how to measure your soft skills and forward an overall assessment of your personality to B-Schools taking into account their needs and requirements.

Use MBA Blog For Your killer application

March 22, 2010 in Blogging

Use MBA Blog For Your killer application
Writing blog could be first step towards Master of Business School. I have been working with MBA aspirants at last 5 years now the benefits I have realised from writing a blog, participating in community services, doing the things that you do beyond your obligation. It can help you in creating killer MBA application.

Writing a blog can help you
* Blogging makes me a understand “Who am I” – Our journey for long term career goal start from understanding our self. It helps us to give a place to show off our skills.

* Blogging give me admit in top 10 School – Sky high scores and a perfect GPA are good tools to bring to the table but they are not guarantee. Then what is more ? it is simply understanding the what exactly we want to pursue.

* Blogging makes me a better philosopher – Learning unlearning make me feel the sense difficult nuacities subject. For writing the blog we need to understand the complexity. It makes you understand the business differently. Somebody already said that Achievers don’t do anything different they do the thing differently.

* Blogging makes me score 6 out of 6 in AWA – The fact that I practice writing daily has made me a better writer. It

* Blogging makes me a better salesperson – I write like I speak and often I write to sell an idea or even a very specific tactic. It’s amazing, but I find that clearly stating idea pitches in writing has improved my ability to quickly articulate them in selling or interview setting. It’s like you build up this reserve bank of preprogrammed discussion points.

* Blogging makes me a better speaker – This one falls nicely from the previous point but I’ll also add that working through blog posts on meatier topics, those that readers weigh in on has produced some of my best presentation material to date.

* Blogging allows me to test out ideas – I’ve made some incredible discoveries about some of my ideas (okay, and had a few flops too) based on the immediate and sometimes passionate response from readers. I’m currently writing a book that reveals a business principle tested out here.

* Blogging help me in adding one more identity in my Resume –

* Blogging makes my essays unique –  It serves as a sort of enhanced writing because it allows employers a unique look at my personality in addition to seeing that i can infact write.

* Blogging help me in getting in touch with alumni & professor-

* Blogging makes a self employment easier- One of the most cost-effective ways of marketing ourselves is with a help of blogging.

* Blogging helps me to create a network- A blog increases my network because a blog is about introducing ourselves and sharing information.

* Blogging helps us to survive in tough times – At the time of economic recession  and rising unemployment, it is always a big challenge to find a good job. Smart blogging can boost our careers at that time .

* It’s satisfying- Whatever else is going on at work or at home, Getting to Excellent gets more readers and more interesting all the time, which is a tremendous source of satisfaction. Which I suppose is another way of saying I enjoy it.

My hope is that, if you’re one of those business folks who has been blogging, but doesn’t know if it’s worth it, or you’ve held off because you don’t think anyone wants to read a blog written by you, this post will give you the leverage of long-term benefits sufficient to keep at it. If you have it’s easy to start!
