Everything about MBA & CAT 2026 in 1 video | MBA degree, Eligibility, Syllabus, Pattern, Strategy

If you’re new to the world of MBA and CAT and feeling overwhelmed by random advice, jargon, and scattered videos, this one is for you.

This video is a complete beginner-friendly guide to an Indian MBA and the CAT exam. Honestly, it’s the video I wish existed when I started my CAT prep journey in 2021. It covers:
👉 What an MBA actually is
👉 Why people do it
👉 What jobs can you get after an MBA
👉 Best Indian colleges
👉 How CAT fits into all of this
👉 CAT eligibility, exam pattern, syllabus, preparation strategy
👉 Post CAT- WAT, SOP, Interview and final selection

I have tried to cover everything in a simple way so you can understand whether an MBA is right for you and how CAT fits into the picture. Of course, the jobs are mostly possible from the top-tier b-schools but can be a good starting point for anyone who wants to know what all is possible.
