To Mr.John Meyers,
Why cant I get an MBA: I never knew that I would need an MBA in my first year at college. I was pretty engrossed in research stuff, Someone in an education fair told me that it was a pretty nice way to expect a scholarship in the USA as PhDs are more often selected for grants from universities. Fundings flows easily in research stuff. And the reason I am so stuck up with the scholarship question is that leave alone affording the expenses for the US, to make ends meet I am living in a 8 by 8 feet room to cut on the expenses. I will have to work atleast an year too if I want to afford my expenses for insurance and travel, which the scholarship won't cover. So as MBA degrees dont come with full scholarships, and I cant really take a loan, my only bet is on a research degree, and this screnio is what I have worked for the last three years. I must say that in the interviews too, they were pretty impressed with my reserch and communication skills. I feel I would do much better at MBA but I cant opt for it due to financial reasons.
Why i wanna be a business analyst?: In my first year, I read a book on IT careers. I get the idea that, being a business analyst, you have kinda the job where you travel frequently to far off countries, like in business suites, and kinda in a corporate enviornment.And I am all corporate type of stuff.
Concerning racism: I feel then, perhaps I have only met the wrong guys. Barring one or two americans, the rest seemed to into their own egos and too nosy. But the first one I met, I guess gave me my first impression, joe was an absolute delight. I was 14 then and the guy seemed to me much more friendlier than I expected. If it would not be for my schoolteachers around, we might have had a beer.
Why I want to go to US: An open enviornment, free from relationship type of stuff in india. Money good, yes , but mainly its the quality of life in US that I am attracted to, not to mention, that I have a tendency to fall for white "sweet" girls real easy. Those I have met, seemed to be dreamy from across the other side of the
fence atleast.
So John, I guess you can catchup with what life is when you have dreams and only dreams by your side, no real money. If I sounded a bit nosy or harsh in this entire conversation, I guess you wont mind. I just said what I thought.
Thanks for taking out the time to reply though. Would you like to tell me a bit about you.
