If you are considering pursuing an MBA from top colleges like IIM, XLRI, or ISB even after already obtaining an MBA from a local college and working for the last 2 years, the good news is that it is possible.
Here are some things to consider:
Be prepared to explain why you feel another MBA is necessary and how it will help you achieve your career goals.
Finally, keep in mind that an MBA is just one part of your overall career journey. It's important to continue learning and growing throughout your career, regardless of whether or not you pursue another degree.
Here is a brief comparison of Vignan’s Lara Institute of Technology and VVIT, based on the reviews I got from my friends at the institute.

People with bachelor's degrees or equivalent qualifications can apply for ISB Hyderabad. You will also need a valid GMAT/GRE score. ISB Hyderabad cutoff for GMAT is 600, and for GRE is 311.
You don’t need work experience to be eligible for the course. But having relevant experience of 2 years will certainly help your application.
To make a choice from any of the colleges, you must judge practically by calculating the net benefit for each school. This is because all the intangible aspects like brand value, networking opportunity, learning, etc will definitely manifest in the expected earning potential after the completion of your MBA.
Firstly, calculate your present earning potential by adding your ‘Current salary’ and expected increase and what is the maximum you can earn in this field (also, how many years it will take?) - Say you can reach up to X in 10 years and then it’s more or less constant.
Now, Calculate the investment for each college -
Cost / Investment = Fees + Stay + exchange program + opportunity cost (current salary * number of months)
ROI after MBA= Expected Salary ranges in the industry you want to work in. What is the maximum earning potential you can reach?
It should be more than X or if it's X in fewer years than your current state, which shows that your investment in that college will be worth it in the future. This way will definitely help you invest in the right place.

The food served at IIT Ropar is just edible, nothing extraordinary. You might not like the food at the hostel of IIT Ropar except for several occasions.
Every student in hostels tends to get bored of the mess food after a while. The menu of the mess is prepared to keep in mind the presence of people from different regions of India. You will be served both South Indian as well North Indian cuisines. The mess at IIT Ropar has an advantage, unlike the other IITs, it serves snacks to the students and the breakfast is also pretty great.
Food will not be an actual issue most of the time as you would be indulged in your studies. You will be busy and would not even notice the taste of the food after some time.
If your score is good in XAT, you will get the call. It is also good because the marks have a good amount of weightage in the final selection.
Most probably, you will be questioned if you have low grades in any of the examinations and all you need to do is, just satisfy the interviewers and prove to them that you are a good candidate and this would be enough to get you through.
If you have a score anywhere above 99.9 Percentile, you will get a call from XAT. You are much more than your mark sheets and XLRI values such things which are beyond scores.
