Hi,

First of all Why thunderbird when u have an option of getting into better ones, However since u fall in the IT sector you need to position yourself very carefully in your essays, since a lot of students with over 700 apply from the same sector...
Well, you have a scholarship essay in the thunderbird app, so if can produce a good essay, then even if you apply in R2 you should be getting it...
What all colleges r u planning to apply?

Hi @tmithun ,


Thanks for the quick reply.

Since Iam from IT sector, there seems to be huge competition in admission and scholarship aswell.

Yes, I have applied to better ones such as Illinois, purdue ,carlson, univ of pittsburgh
giving i/w for some univ and waiting for decision for some of them.

Given huge competition from IT sector applicants - iam really looking for scholarships and as I want to do MBA asap, for playing safe, I would like to apply .


and btw, any idea on how good is it for operations ?

regards,
Venkata

@ravj

Maintain a good connection between your current work exp and goals-both short and long also be very specific.

Remember to if asked about a situation do follow
Situation - your action - result. (as the interviewer may not know abt your field)

HTH,

Revert on any other clarifications

Regards,
Mithun.
