TLDR; Practice a lot after boards.If you’re aspiring for IPMAT, work hard. You should mainly focus on quants, logical reasoning and general knowledge. Private universities are fairly easy to get into.

But its always better to know what your getting into. So what exactly is BBA?

Nobody picks BBA thinking they’ll have to study a lot. But the BBA syllabus does come with surprises ,some good, some bad and some ugly.

Here’s what it usually includes:

• Principles of Management – Basically, how to not be a terrible boss.

• Marketing – Selling stuff with strategy and not just standing outside counters screaming others to buy

• Financial Accounting

• Human Resource Management – Hiring, firing, and sometimes understanding people but nowadays it’s mostly firing.

• Business Law & Ethics – So you don’t accidentally do a scam(to not be the next Harshad Mehta).

• Business Analytics / Data Science – In newer programs like the one at Rishihood.

Most good BBA colleges also include internships. If your future plan involves building a startup, internships help incredibly much. Internships are crucial for building a strong resume and securing jobs easily, especially in product-based companies.They provide practical experience which helps avoid common mistakes .

One major reason to do internship is to know if the field of work is for you or not. You can’t know for sure unless you yourself set into the puddle of internship.

This is also the reason why our BBA program has a mandatory 6 months internship in their 5th semester.

At one point, no matter what college, you start to feel the rebel boiling inside you, telling you what are you even doing in a place that does not even value practicality and the reality of running a business . That’s a reason why most dropouts even exist. We didn’t want our students to go through this mental trauma. That’s why we have this mandatory 6 months internship in our 5th Semester. It’s to make our students well versed with the practicalities of the companies. So that they get used to the nuances and problems it takes to run a company beforehand.

But not everyone wants to start a startup. Some just want to relax . In that case we have other university exams.

Even though we accept scores from CUET and SAT, We also have our own bba entrance exam. Its called RSAT. Its final round is 30th June. You can refer to our website for more details .

But one of the most important to refer to is the fees of the bba program.
