Bangalore: MBA grads from top B-schools in the country are not up to the mark, said a report titled 'Practical Intelligence in Top B-Schools in India' by employability solutions firm Aspiring Minds, as reported by the Economic Times.

The study, which was based on the assessment of 230 students from the elite B-schools in the country, revealed that the MBA grads lagged behind in practical intelligence and handling of situations when compared to the experienced individuals with three to five years of experience in the corporate world.
