Ph.D. in management is the highest academic degree awarded in the study of management Science. You can be Professor after your Ph.D. or some big business house will hire you for research work. It is a bad idea to even think of doing Ph.D. from India if you have a good educational background and have some achievements. The best place to do Ph.D. is from USA because of following reasons
* Teaching assistantships
* Graduate assistantships
* Research assistantships (The assistantships include a stipend and a tuition scholarship)
Majority of Ph.D. students get any of these which cover their Tuition fee along with that they get good amount of money to survive.

The important things which you should look into while preparing for this exam are as follows:
1. Select one of the best coaching centers which offer quality education- TIME is one of the famous coaching centers for CAT and MAT.
2. Dedication- Be focused on the aim which you need to achieve.
3. Try to read Hindu newspaper editorial. Most of the passages which appear in MAT are from Hindu editorial.
4. Try to do a maximum number of online mock tests. You will definitely clear MAT by doing the above.
5. Try to read as much as you can and make note of points.
6. Revision of each week topics is very important.
7. Mathematical ability questions will be little-twisted try to do as faster as you can. These are my tips for you to crack both MAT and CAT.

The point of this answer will be to tell what you can expect in an interview. Don't expect the interviewers to grind you only on technical questions. Of course they will do so but it is only one part of the interview. If you are academics are pretty impressive then they won't dig much into it. Mostly they will check your presence of mind and your situation handling abilities. Many a times they ask you about your opinions on some current happening or almost anything. They can ask you anything related to what you have put on your resume. If you have put stock market as your interests then they will surely as more about it. They may ask random questions like at what points did NIFTY was yesterday or what do you think about Infosys share buyback. So be prepared. Be thorough with your resume and don't bluff on your resume.

1. Part-time MBA programs as mentioned are the MBA programs that are open for any professional with some years of professional experience and can be studied besides the job. The structure can be modular, that is students learn individually and come together every five or six weeks or two months to meet for a week together with professors so-called residential periods of face-to-face sessions. The structure can also be weekly when students have to come on the campus on a weekly or bi-weekly base. This allows to complete the MBA over two or three years and again the target group is all professionals, independent if they have leadership experience or not.
2. Executive MBA programs (EMBA) this programme type is also an MBA and hence covers the same core courses as a full-time MBA or part-time MBA. It is also a part-time MBA as it can be studied besides the job. However, EMBA programs require some years of leadership experience because of that, EMBA students are often older than full-time MBA students, more experienced and network-oriented.

MBA (EMBA) is an intensive one-year residential or distance learning or combination of residential and distance learning programme created specifically for professionals with 5 years or more work experience. EMBA provides students with the same solid foundation in key management concepts and disciplines as a two-year full-time MBA. Executive MBA course work is built on the basis of those students who have diverse and extensive work experience by virtue of which they will able to related to management theories and concepts. Candidate selection is based on assessment based on following criteria: (a) Academic background (b) Professional experience (c) GMAT score (d) Personal interviews (e) Statement of Purpose (f) Recommendation
An overall assessment is made on the basis of all these factors for selecting candidates for admission. B-schools are very selective with respect to selection of candidates for full-time one year EMBA programme.
