BEING A MYRACLE
--------------------- After sailing on ships for about 8 years, I felt that I should go for higher studies. An MBA, for sure, was the best thing I could have chosen for higher studies .Today, there are 1000's of colleges which offer a good MBA and all of them claim to be the best!! Hence, it's a challenging job to search a good college. So I applied to a few good colleges which suited my needs. But then, a close friend of mine suggested me MYRA. He just said to me" just check out their website and you will feel to study there."
I logged on to MYRA's website. After browsing through the website, I felt that there was something different about MYRA. Its sprawling green campus, its innovative and beautiful building, its classrooms, its curriculum with a vast range of core and elective courses, and most importantly, its highly qualified faculty (all of them PhD's in their domains) and excellent placement record, attracted me.
So, I started applying for it. I knew about the application procedure of other colleges which is almost same for every college (looks like they blindly follow similar pattern of application!). A very long form, with a lot of details to fill in, 2-3 essays and 2 letters of recommendation from the supervisors (looks like they are poor in choosing on their own and needs someone else's reference) is the normal content of their application. Applicant is half dead by the time application is completed!
But MYRA's application process is very simple. Just fill the online form, which is short and simple and contains everything that the institute must look at, before selecting an applicant. MYRA looks into every aspect of a candidate's profile (Unlike other good colleges where high GMAT score is top priority). Candidate's academic performance, be it in secondary school, higher secondary school or college or his extra-curricular activities or his additional activities or the GMAT score, everything has equal importance for MYRA. So don't be disheartened if you have low GMAT score (mine was 550). MYRA will find the diamond in you, which even you may not be aware of, and select you. Crux is the 'statement of purpose ': one single essay, which tells everything about the applicant. Looks like, MYRA knows exactly what to look for in an applicant before selecting him/her.
Even the interviewers are cool. I had an online interview. They made me comfortable during the interview and it was a very pleasant experience to be interviewed by them.
In today's world, where imparting knowledge has become a real time business and can cost you a fortune, MYRA belongs to a new class of colleges where real values are taken care of and world class education, from world class faculty, is being imparted in India (Mysore) at a very affordable price.
Don't believe??
Check out MYRA's website and feel the difference!!!
