Hi there,

Mba or master of business administration is a two year postgraduate degree majorly focused in management.

See, MBA adds an upper edge in the career of an individual and it allows candidates to grab better placement opportunities with great offers.

As you have mentioned that you are mechanical engineering graduate so yes you can apply for MBA anytime in your life. You can pursue MBA from distance as well.

See, there is a slight difference between PGDM, MBA and E-MBA.

PGDM is a two year diploma degree while MBA is a two year professional degree. MBA has higher value than PGDM. These two degrees are very popular and has better opportunities as well.

Apart from this, you are absolutely eligible for giving CAT/XAT exams. There are no restrictions and eligibility criteria for this degree.

I hope this information will help you.

Thanks!!!
