AoA Everyone,

For those who are interested in learning about how to apply to top-ranked MBA programs, there is a free event taking place in Karachi on September 28th. This event is organized by the University of Chicago, which is currently ranked #1 globally according to Businessweek and the Economist.

As an MBA alum, I'm helping the school to organize this in Karachi to create awarenesss about the somewhat complicated and lengthy process. We see too many Pakistanis apply to lower ranked business schools. Unlike engineering schools and other professions, the post-MBA income can be as high as 2-3 times depending upon if you got an MBA from a top 10 ranked business school versus any other school, as the opportunities available to a few prestigious business school graduates are somewhat uniquely available to them. Please see the information below. Feel free to forward this information to anyone who may be interested (either fresh graduates or people who have a work experience of up to 10 years of experience generally)

The details of the event are below:

Thank you!
Asim

    Is the India Growth Story Over?

    In a television speech to the nation, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged his people to make sacrifices by spending less on fuel, fertilizer, and travel. He also asked them not to buy gold for a year. “To save foreign exchange, we must accept the challenge of patriotism,” he said. It appears that India's problems do not just stem from the effects of the US-Iran war; India's problems started well before that. Flight of foreign capital has put the Indian currency under tremendous…

    Pakistan's New Infrastructure Investments and Trade Routes

In addition, Pakistan is seeing significant increase in the utilization of its Gwadar and Karachi ports after the closure of the Strait of Hormuz due to the US-Iran war.
