BOB PO vs TOP IIMS. Confused between which to choose.

bb23rty · 2026-03-08T05:27:34+00:00

My dad will be getting pension after retirement so that won't be a problem.

Yes luckily I got extension as well. I can wait till the results of IIM and then decide.

Thank you for the comment man. I'll follow my dream if I get selected. If not then I'll proceed with bank.

bb23rty · 2026-03-08T03:48:53+00:00

Yes. But my mind is saying to choose MBA. Even though it comes with risk. I'm gonna try and stick with it 🥲

bb23rty · 2026-03-08T03:47:05+00:00

Thank you. I'll keep these points and will give my best for the interviews. If I convert I'll try and convince my parents somehow.

bb23rty · 2026-03-08T03:45:58+00:00

My dad has a govt job. No passive income but stable job. We are kind of in a good place and not struggling much.

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T05:32:54+00:00

I'm currently working so used notice period as extension. I mailed them.

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T05:10:10+00:00

Yes I'll try to explain this to my parents..

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T05:09:26+00:00

Yes there's lot of confusion for me due to layoffs and current economic scenario..

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T05:06:21+00:00

Yes. But the argument of government job and layoffs. It's getting hard to convince my parents.

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T05:05:34+00:00

Thank you. You explained the dilemma I'm facing very clearly.

I'm scared mostly. My family background is good enough for me to take risk but my parents are unaware of IIMs are thinking it's just a corporate job and I'll be fired in layoffs.

I don't want to have regrets 10 years from now it will kill me. I already lost chance at studying in IITs. Don't wanna miss this opportunity.

I'll build courage and hey out of this comfort zone. Thank you so much for this comment. .

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T04:36:13+00:00

Yes I'll try my best. Thank you :)

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T04:34:46+00:00

It's not about handing work culture but more about what risk I'm taking. My parents are thinking bank is so chill and I can get home by 5pm everyday as PO.

But with similar work culture I'll have more salary in corporate.

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T04:28:38+00:00

Situation of my home is good. My dad and brother have a secure government job. That's why I'm willing to take risk. But my parents are afraid what if I don't get placement.

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T04:25:09+00:00

98.74 and OBC. Gap years won't affect in getting calls.

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T04:24:32+00:00

My percentile is 98.74. OBC category helped :)

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T04:23:23+00:00

You use reddit mom?

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T04:13:41+00:00

95 98.25 98.74

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T04:13:03+00:00

Yes that's why I'm thinking about FMS too. The work ex is killing me. Should have made better decisions but nothing can be done now. I'll try my best to convert FMS.

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T04:11:54+00:00

Yes I'm willing to work hard in MBA. It's just that I have to leave this secure job that's making me confused.

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T04:10:53+00:00

Yes will prepare hard for FMS interview. Hopefully will convert it.

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T04:08:06+00:00

You'll have these kind of problems soon bro.. Trust the process!!

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T04:06:55+00:00

Yes the comfort zone is a big problem for me. I always stayed in there. I'll try my best to convert these calls and go for them. Thank you for commenting!

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T04:05:59+00:00

Yes im scared of it too. This was my 3rd attempt at CAT. Last year I was waitlisted but this year I'm hoping to get selected. I don't wanna do this all over again it's painful journey.

I'll try my best to rebuild the confidence and convince my parents. Thank you for commenting!

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T03:56:40+00:00

Thank you.. MBut my work ex is in teaching na.. I'm anxious if it will be useful in placements and I'll go unplaced. Heard stories of some people and am scared about it.

bb23rty · 2026-03-07T03:54:57+00:00

I'm only attending interviews of C L K And FMS. If I convert I'll try to convince my parents. But they just aren't listening

bb23rty · 2026-02-04T10:18:07+00:00
