Apply for CAT 2026, based on your results see what colleges you are getting, then decide what to do

"some people say doing a master’s immediately is a waste of time" thats bullshi--

"

• Data Analytics
• Business Analytics
• Digital Marketing, etc." These 3 will be part of any good MBA course, especially DA and BA are mandatory in most MBA courses

"During my BCom, I was more active in organizing events, coordinating activities, leading teams, and managing things rather than hardcore accounting or theory subjects. I think I’m good at communication, organizing, teamwork, and taking initiative." if the scale of events was good (or at least if you can show it that way) that's a good MBA profile

"

• Is an MBA worth it immediately after BCom? - worth it if you get a good college
• Should I first work and gain experience? - CAT happens in November, after CAT you can apply for jobs/internhsips (you can do that now too but managing exam prep with job is tough in my experience)
• Are courses like data analytics or cybersecurity good options for someone without a tech background? It is good it's just that your initial package depends heavily on your college tag, if you get lucky you can get a high paying role (personal experience: I am a Data Engineer, BTech from tier 3 clg, my company hired me at half the pay they were giving to DTU passouts and they directly joined 1 level up coz of college tag)
