2) what are the job opportunities after a mtech or ms?
3) which is the best place to do ms from?
4) what is the  minimum amount of fees you require to do ms?
5) what is the eligibility criteria for doina a ms or a mtech degree?
since i dont have a good percentage in my 12th standard is it going to affect the further studies ?
and lastly what is preferable after a btech in biotechnology ? a mba/ mtch/a ms degree?
6) how should i prepare for it?
as far is as interest is concerned im interested in the food sector or the marketing sector.

Hi Ayesha,

Let me respond to your queries one by one:

1) Ms vs Mtech ?
Refer this: http://www.biotechnologyforums.com/threa...10796.html

2) Job opportunities after a mtech or ms
Again refer the same link as above

3) the best place to do ms from?
In India: IIT Delhi or IIT Madras
Abroad: Any University in Top 50 of QS ranking in United States

4) minimum amount of fees you require to do ms?
In India: Around INR 2,00,000 in total
Abroad: Around INR 40,00,000 in total
No fees required if you are studying on scholarship basis after qualifying through GATE or GRE

5) what is the eligibility criteria for doina a ms or a mtech degree?
In India: Btech or MSc is required
GATE is mandatory for getting admission is elite colleges in India

Abroad: Btech or Bsc or MSc is required
GRE is mandatory, so is TOEFL

6) Low percentage in 12th?
As long as it is above 60% there are no issues. 

7) Choosing mba/ mtech/ms degree?
If research is your focus: MS
If technical job is your focus: MTech
If Management/ Marketing and money is your interest: MBA

Hope it helps
