Ever since I seriously started thinking of my MBA , I've constantly been bugged by this question. Every year the number of Indian IT male applicants(of course the females too, but there is a gender bias on the school's part) to an international b-school has been steadily increasing and it comes to no surprise that, the AdComs have realized our potential and have made it a point to cut down on us.
It seems as if an AdCom saw a profile stating - 26-27/M/Indian/IT industry, without a second's thought they would say - oh, not another one- and off you go into the trashcan.
Need to prove myself different - ya I did community service, I have some accomplishments outside work, yada yada yada !!. Now who doesn't do that and applies for an MBA. So what else makes us different from each other. One goes to the US, the other to Europe , someone to China and someone to Australia... does it really make a different what country you worked in when you do the samething ...I dont think so
Let's figure out who's accepted and who's dinged!
God bless y'all (of course, me included) Indian IT MBA aspirants
