GMAT essential for quality control as MBA student numbers drop
There is ongoing debate in the business press about the decline of MBA student numbers and what is wrong with MBA programs. This debate easily spills over into a discussion whether Australia has too many MBA programs. But the real issue is the quality range of MBA graduates emerging from Australian business schools.
Better MBA graduates make better managers and make a bigger difference in the businesses they join. Lesser quality MBA graduates are seen as arrogant and not worth the extra salary cost, compared with holders of bachelors degrees, who are more amenable to on-the-job training.
Better MBA graduates also boost the ranking of the MBA program: being ranked first or among the top few MBA programs in Australia (by the Australian Financial Review, for example), or in the top 100 globally (by the Financial Times) is the holy grail of Australian business schools. These rankings depend in large part on the salary earned by MBAs after they graduate, and on the salary difference pre and post-MBA.
