As most of the B-school final results are being rolled out, it's time to decide your next step and here are a few suggestions from my experience. Most of the aspirants will broadly fall into one of the three categories
Category-1:
Aspirants who have converted their desired B-schools, and have to choose one among them.
Reach out to the respective B-school seniors to understand the course structure, fees, placements, alumni network, and other opportunities. See if your interests and aspirations align with what the college offers.
Have a look at the placement report to understand the kind of companies visiting the B-school and the roles offered. If you have a specific area of interest like marketing, finance, or consulting, ensure the college provides relevant specializations or significant roles during SIP/Placements.
Category-2:
Aspirants who could not perform to their expectations and wanted to give one more attempt.
Keep the spirits high. There are a few uncontrollable factors at each stage of the admission process, so try to focus only on the controllables.
Take a Pause and try to analyze where it went wrong. Restart your preparation and improve on your weaker areas.

Category-3:
Aspirants who have converted some B-schools but are yet to decide whether to join a B-school this year or make one more attempt for a better college.
Evaluate your B-school convert options at hand according to your interests. Look at the risk-return trade-off you would be getting if you were to take one more attempt.
Talk to mentors and seniors who have sound knowledge of B-schools and could help you evaluate your options.
Don't take advice from random folks in WhatsApp/Telegram groups. It does more harm than good. Be aware of people who advise you not to join a particular B-school because they want the waitlist to move.
