I have to stop writing letters to you as I am getting married very soon....Yup...You heard it right...I am getting married with my love, Anuprita, on 29th April...
On MBA Front...hell lots of confusion going on in my mind....Very Very Very Confused..........All results have been declared and current scenario is as follows:
Admits from :
Univ of Iowa (Tippie School of Management) - Approx cost would come to be 15 lacs Rupees
Vanderbilt Univ (Owen School of Management) --- Approx cost would come to be 33 lacs Rupees
Univ of Rochester (Simon School of Business) -- Approx cost would come to be 37 lacs Rupees...
Wait listed at:
Duke -- Didn't have interview, so scheduled now on 4th April with an alumni in Mumbai
Tepper -- after interview
UCLA - without interview
Rest -- DINGS
Less than a month to go for my marriage...so i am not sure about how much time I would be able to devote to my Wait list follow ups...But have to do it...I need to convert them to admits....else I have to compromise with II-Tier schools like Simon/Vandy/iowa....where again picking one school would be difficult task...what the hell is this????
Feeling a bit tensed since morning today...Not Sure what would happen but one thing is sure that there is no time to relax....
Come on JP...You gotta do it...Some efforts here and things would turn around...Come on buddy....This is not difficult than my love story (where I had to wait for more than 4 years to get a real good news)
Right now, my Views on the three schools(I have an admit) are as follows:
Simon:
Advantages:
a. Location - Close to NY
b. Small Class Size - so better focus from career management center and faculty
c. Good Reputation in Finance education
Disadvantages:
a. Costliest among all three
b. Cant get loan without co-signor, so might end up having loan in India
Owen:
Advantages:
a. Good Placements
b. Average Reputation in Finance education
c. No Co-signor required for loan
Disadvantages:
a. Costly
b. Location - I am not sure about this one as I believe east coast provides better opportunities for finance jobs.
Iowa-Tippie:
Advantages:
a. Cheapest among all three
b. Small Class Size - so better focus from career management center and faculty
Disadvantages:
a. Location - would also face tough competition from Kellog and Chicago
b. Not very well known for finance education.
So Guys please share your thoughts/views...
take care
bye

Thank God Kkkkkkiraaan is out of the scene!!! [:)]
CONGRATS AGAIN!!!
Bhul gaye humein?
Hey just a thought...do you have a friend who can co-sign a loan...Simon would be the best choice in that case...and I had heard banks in US (who have tieups with colleges) give loans to candidates w/o co-signer with increased Interest rate..pls confirm on that!!
