Hello Aspirant,

Yes, you can do an MBA after the BPP B. com from IGNOU, provided that you meet the eligibility requirements of the university or college that runs the MBA program. The BPP (Bachelor's Preparatory Program) certificate from IGNOU, followed by the B. com degree is accepted as credentialed by most institutions, especially open universities and distance learning institutions. Programs of study that are full-time or ranked highly - generally MBA programs from reputed institutions such as IIMs or other rank recognized private B-schools - will typically require:

• Credentialed Bachelor's degree (the B. com degree from IGNOU)
• Entrance exam scores (examinations include, but are not limited to, CAT, MAT, XAT, and university specific tests)
• Although not very common, some programs do ask for 10+2 qualification, so each university will have its own eligibility criteria requirements.

If you are looking for flexible or distance MBA programs, both IGNOU and some open universities like Symbiosis (SCDL), NMIMS Global, or Annamalai University, should also accept you as a student.

You're absolutely eligible to pursue an MBA in Bangalore or Mysore even if you completed your Intermediate through APOSS (Andhra Pradesh Open School Society) and your degree through regular mode.

Most MBA colleges—whether affiliated to universities like Bangalore University, VTU, or Mysore University—primarily require a recognized bachelor’s degree with at least 50% marks (45% for reserved categories). Since you've completed your graduation through regular mode from a recognized university, that fulfills the key eligibility.

Your APOSS qualification is also valid as long as it’s recognized by the government and education boards, which it is. It might raise minor documentation or verification questions during admission, but it won’t disqualify you. You should carry all necessary original certificates including your APOSS pass certificate, transfer/migration certificate, and degree marksheets during admission or counselling.

Hello aspirant,
The OJEE integrated MBA cutoff is the rank range within which colleges offer admission post-counselling. For 2025, general category cutoffs varied by institute. For example, Gangadhar Meher College’s integrated MBA program opened at rank 411 and closed near 8,200. Overall expected closing ranks for general category fall roughly within 1,500 to 5,300 for popular programs and colleges. Reserved category students have a wider acceptance range based on their quotas.

These cutoffs are influenced by factors like difficulty, number of seats, and reservation. To secure a seat, aim to be within the closing rank of your target college, ideally around first 5,000–10,000 for general admission in top institutes.

Hello Ashish,

Yes, you can get admission to MBA programs at IISWBM without a CAT score, but only for certain courses. Note that IISWBM has MBA programs under the University of Calcutta and flagship courses like MBA (Day) or MBA-HRM typically require a CAT score. Other programs like the PGDM or Executive MBA/Course may have other entrance examinations on which consideration would be made, or considerations may be based on merit, and of course work experience. Always run any eligibility detail checks with the official IISWBM (https://www.iiswbm.edu/) website or The IISWBM prospectus.

Hello aspirant,
If you want a job quickly after B.Com, you can take up short-term courses like Tally, GST, Excel, or digital marketing to land entry-level roles like accounts assistant, billing executive, or analyst with a salary around 2 to 3.5 LPA.

Between CA and MBA, go for CA if you're good at finance, ready to study hard, and want a high-paying, secure career in audit or taxation. Choose MBA if you're interested in management, business roles, and want better campus placements — just make sure to aim for a top B-school.

Good B.Com marks alone help in getting calls, but combining it with skills or certifications is key. You can also prepare for M.Com, CS, CMA, or government exams alongside.
