The correspondence courses are not worth it. They do not do any justice to the course. It is more about the brand value than the course. The correspondence course(s) may appear promising to potential employers who are ignorant or aspiring students who are in a bubble.

• In the late 80s, notes and/or handouts were distributed by the faculty.
• They were photocopied in large numbers by a typist and a clerk.
• From a room below the stairs of the academic center, they mailed copies to the students of the correspondence course(s).
• The faculty took no initiative as to how the correspondence course students were doing.
• The students of the regular course were getting far more attention from the professors, industry experts, visiting professors, practical sessions, etc.
• Even the current scenario has not seen much of a change. The correspondence courses are somewhat advertised by the institute and that’s it.
• They get little to no attention from the professors.

Getting into a regular MBA from either institute is something you should prioritize as it will bear fruits; more than correspondence ever will.
