There's another dimension to be looked at here - especially in India's case. I'm currently enrolled in a Bschool and my class mostly comprises of students from an engineering background. Most of them have joined an MBA program to switch careers. Their primary argument is that they were forced to do engineering and when they figured out that they'd rather be doing something else it was too late. Since none of them wanted to spend their early life debugging code for big IT company (read: TCS, infosys) they preferred to do an MBA program.
