A BBA degree will secure you an entry-level job at most companies in a management position, but growth opportunities can be possibly limited unless you plan on pursuing an MBA degree from a reputable institute as well. While cracking the CAT might seem like a monumental task, once you're in a highly ranked B-School, a BBA degree will go a long way in making the final leg of your formal education smooth. This is because the advanced MBA course material will be much easier to handle with the firm fundamentals you've gained during your BBA. It is important that, as a student, you constantly pursue internships or part-time opportunities to complement your undergraduate experience with on-the-job training which will make you a good job candidate. B.Com has proved itself and much more. Its solid theoretical grounding is brilliant for careers in finance, or really, just about any numbers-related field like taxation or accountancy. It’s practically mandatory for those looking to pursue CA/ICWA/CS, to have done a Bachelors in Commerce. A two-year M.Com (Master of Commerce) from a reputable university after a B.Com further qualifies you for leadership positions and state-level examinations. Placements, while not difficult, may not be qualitative unless the degree has been pursued from a renowned college like SRCC, Delhi. Pursuing an MBA in Finance is another good way to cement your career while maintaining your roots in commerce.
