But how beneficial is a business administration degree at undergrad level when you have next to no work or life experience? I mean, it's perfectly understandable why mid-career professionals would choose to get an MBA but how does it benefit a 18-19 year old? I don't mean this as a jibe against Lamisa. I appreciate how difficult it is to get into IBA and I congratulate her for that. I just wonder about the choice of degree.

Of course, from seeing my cousin's experience, I can see how sensible a decision it is career-wise. Almost all IBA grads seem to get jobs immediately with high entry-level salaries.

Zeeshan, if there's one thing I have learnt from my years on this planet, it's not to underestimate Bengali women. They are magical বহুরূপী creatures, and we mere mortal men can handle but one or two limited glimpses into their multifaceted personalities.

Our forefathers (no intellectual slouches themselves) knew this: why else did they limit themselves to singing the praises of only female deities -- Durga, Kali, Saraswati and Lakshmi -- while the rest of the subcontinent was going around worshipping all manner of gods and goddesses?

I can't believe I am being so nice, but congrats Lamisa!

Navo, obviously I can't speak for Lamisa (I only know her as someone who posts here), but I think you've partly answered your question. It does offer a fairly assured path to a reasonably well-paying job and at least partial financial independence for young women. Note also that our middle class is in the midst of transitioning to dual-income families, thus making choosing this degree (at this point in time), instead of say, many of the humanities degrees preferred by women of my parents' generation (when many families depended on single incomes), an advantage even in the marriage mart (again, I would like to reiterate that I am by no means suggesting that these are Lamisa's reasons).

Now, if you are phrasing the question as to how important such degrees are from the perspective of the "businesses" that hire them, I will admit to being a little more cynical. I think fresh young IBA graduates "spruce up the place," and "set the right tone" (comments made to me by a few CEOs in Dhaka) but still remain (because of their youth and lack of experience) more amenable to decisions made by individuals higher up the hierarchy than say, your hypothetical mid-career professional with an MBA would be. Briefly, they make good-looking "yes men" and "women" for the bosses.

Is there any way to see how many clicks each and every sections of the forum gets daily? I don't remember clicking on "Bangladesh Cricket" section in last couple of weeks.

navo bhai, IBA graduates don't have any difficuties whatsoever to get a job once they graduate. even the ones with cgpas below 3 get very well paid jobs. and currently in bd, the business graduates are more well paid than engineers. if it's between a buet graduate and an iba graduate, chances are higher that the iba graduate will get a higher paid job. but in my case, i didn't choose bba for the money matter, i have an entirely different reason. i like studying business hence i made this decision

Accoustic Guitar both of you? Don't buy stuff off the internet initially guys...go to a store and talk to the salespeople/guys regarding the need for your strings. Tell them what kind of guitar you are playing and get strings for that type of guitars. If it is Accoustic, you probbably have three nylon and three metal strings. Metal for the thicker - Bassy lines and nilon for the thin - chrispy/chirpy lines/sounds. And once you are familier with buying a few sets of strings and broke a few sets, then buy'em online.

Talk to Razab Qashem Chowdhury dada and Kabir da of Canada! These guys are born rockers, Guitar maistroe (spell)!

Best of luck to you Simon and Paniwala bhai!

Not everyone can be a self-made entrepreneur. Someone needs to be the employee(s). A self-made, self-educated entrepreneur will not hire someone like him/herself, they'll employ college educated drones who will do his bidding well but without question.
