This trend has become very common now days..Even I have recived at least 4-5 emails or sms every week from admission consulatant saying that want to pursue MBA form new-aged B-school with blah blah features, then contact us.. we deal with following B-school..admission gurantted..All the b-school given in the list are not well recognised..this is a marketing technique..students must be aware of this thing..This is similar in the line of what has happend to many students in karnataka who want to pursue engeering..they paid money to the agent..to get the admission seat through management quote..in pvt engineering colleges..
As per the practice of our country,there is nothing called Original Thinking in any field, ranging from house hold utility items,to films, to soft drinks and hard drinks,to medicines and ultimately to MBA learning.We are pathetic copy cats to the extent of chasing out of value any new International Development in any field by mindless and cheap imitation of it.Barring few top notchers,majority of Management Institutes just entice students,not enroll students,with false promises of 100% placement.They also brag about having the best faculty,when actual ly there is a crunch situation in this crucial manpower area as the the creamy layer of the academics could either be found beyond the fro ntiers of India or in the reputed Indian Insti tutes.The mushrooming growth of such cheap but costly in fees structure institutes and their equally cheap agents is a serious problem to India.

well.. even so called reputed principal lnw college, matunga.. takes 25-30 lacs for mgmt seat pgdbm..direct admission..no exam, no gd.
In kapur also this trend has picked up. barring one/two management colleges are having many agents and pay good amount for each admissions. they have poor faculty,no placement,poor aptitude screening. it is better students go for distance education MBA than going to such colleges.
They will be able to work along the course and save lot of money.
This article is sponsored by the Indian Institute of Job-oriented Training, it seems. Advertorial suggessts that. Wrong way of publicity but in sense it is propoganda.
NOW IT IS TREND OF PVT COLLEGES NOT ONLY ADMISSION EVEN TEACHERS ARE OF NO BUSINESS EXPERIENCE THEY HIRE FRESHERS FOR 8-10 k 7-8 in numbers and a OLDMAN RETIRED GREEDY PROFESSOR SIT AS DIRECTOR.ONLY EDUCATION IS MONEY MAKING.
Whin I applied to Symbiosis of Pune for a distance learning PG course for defence personnel for 18 months, a got response from Indian Institute of Modern Management Pune now its called Balagi Institute of Modern Management..now it seems the above article answers the engima I had all these years
After all its all about management... right or not right from leagel point but from business point this kind of practices is very much in day to day business.
Indian education system thrives because of the importance being placed for education at family and social circles and quality education if there is something like that is scarce.So right form KG till esteemed post graduate courses we have fixers and consultants. While the MBA seats are sold sacrificing entry criteria norms, schools in KOTA etc prepare students thru tuitions and classes for which also there are agents...so before or after graduation and even at ABCD level we have fixers....we have it for all now..rediff is just reporting what is an already established norm..cant undo it..it should report something wrong and new which can be prevented or stopped..dont forget this is India and we will say it is like that only.
