Should you opt for the management quota this year?

Management Quota is a government-approved mechanism provided to students who want to secure Direct Admission to the institute/school. Every year, several parents go for management seats by paying extra money so that their child can have a good future in the best school.

However, this year the case could be a bit different. Majority of children who have gotten admitted to preschool last year have attended Zoom call classes. This, however, is not very convenient or useful for kids in that particular age group. Many schools are also charging Annual and Development fees even when the DOE expressed explicitly to charge the tuition fee only. Parents have had complaints concerning the approach with which the classes were conducted— small class duration, No individual attention, poor teaching, etc.

Chances are that the common man (If we are able to get a vaccine soon) might receive the vaccine in a few months down the road. Hence, investing lakhs of money on online classes (With no surety of school reopening) is sort of a gamble and extremely wasteful. If you still wish to enroll your child in their dream school, you can try the management quota next year as well.
