Yes, you are eligible to apply for MBA programs abroad, including in Germany, given your master's degree and 16 years of work experience. Your extensive professional background and postgraduate qualification can help offset your undergraduate marks (43%) and past backlogs.

- Most German MBA programs require a bachelor's degree with 60 - 70% marks, but strong work experience and a master's can compensate.
- English proficiency proof (such as IELTS, TOEFL, or PTE) is typically required.
- Some universities may have specific policies about backlogs, so requirements can vary.
