When I was a MBA Aspirant, the biggest dilemma I had was , will I be considered in any b-school as fresher?
I was from an engineering background as well, with no experience in the corporate world there was always a question in my mind, am I deserving enough to go for an MBA. There were always stories going around that the b-schools do not consider freshers. With all the this fuss going around, I still gave the competitive exams with all my dedication and just waited for the results. As the results came, I prepared accordingly and patiently. Then I started getting calls from the b-schools. I was nervous at first and a little bit short of confidence, but the I appreciate about me the most is the go for it attitude. The date of the interviews of the colleges was approaching and I decided, 'If I have taken up this task, I am going to go for it with full potential and no fear.' I gave the interviews and now waited for the results. Apparently, I applied to 3 b-schools and got a call from all the three b-schools. I was only then I realized my potential and it was only then my dream and aspiration to be a great manager was solidified. I took admission in the best of the options I had and here I am GIM, goa and it has been 1 month since the programme started and I am enjoying the studies here and also getting to learn a lot from my peers.
This was my story of overcoming my fears and challenges to pursue my ambitions.
