Hi,
I am from India.I am currently doing MBA in systems(MIS) from a reputed university. I have completed my graduation in chemistry.
I always had inclination towards I.T but was never interested in programming. My question is will my background be an obsatcle in becoming a good B.A.
P.S I am thankful to this forum that a lot is discussed of B.A which is scarce here.

No background should be an obstacle to becoming a good business analyst. I have met great BAs with a variety of backgrounds: IT, programming, music, business, social sciences, finance.
The main differentiator is what do you do to achieve your goals and how hard you work at it. Basically, nobody becomes a good business analyst overnight and without working hard at it (learn, do, learn, do, and learn some more). Your learning can come from: mentors, books, training courses, webinars, magazines, etc.

hi,
Not at all a problem for a MBA graduate to get a job in BA field.You need to furnish the prerequisite skillset needed for Business Analysts job.
Because you have a chemistry degree you should see if you can find a Junior BA slot in a chemistry related field. A B.A. with "domain knowlege" has a leg up over one who has to learn it "from scratch."
