Decision taken...time to move ahead

I'm returning to my blog after 5-6 days.

Firstly, I would like to thank ClearAdmit for creating a wonderful community of bloggers. This will certainly help all of us to keep our focus intact and obtain valuable inputs from each other during the admission process.

On work front, I have taken decision to move to Tampa, FL for long term. The reasons for this decision are multi-fold. I have never had a need to travel earlier either for education or for job. So, I have been in Bombay since birth. Now I would like to move to different country and experience different life. The US is certainly most preferred country to move to. I had an opportunity to go for MS but I declined that and decided to take up a job after I completed my engineering degree. In addition, I can save $30K-$40K for my education. Also, I had a talk with my group head and SAG head meanwhile. SAG head assured me the position in SAG after I return from onsite. At present, I am going to onsite while retaining the opportunity in business development for future.

On essays front, I have written rough drafts of two ISB essays, which will be revised in future. The third essay is really tricky and I dont know where to start. "A million dollars or knighthood: what would you choose and why? (300 words max)" is the essay topic. ClearAdmit has done a great job with their posts relating to essay analysis. I request them to analyze ISB essays too. This will certainly help me and others applying to ISB.


Cheers..
Charu M.

@ Charu, - I saw your comment on deepthroats blog, and then saw it here too. so repeating what i wrote there. I was talking to a freind of mine who happens to be last year's ISB alumnus, and he suggested the essay on a million dollars or knighthood, seeks to see our ability to reason out something. and i kinda agree. Take a stand and reason out why you are for it. There would be no right or wrong answer. Nor is it meant to gauge any personality trait in you. It just is some sort of a case and how you are able to convince your point of veiw. My freind suggested writing both sides of the coin, and deciding which came out well. :)

Chaos,
That is a valuable suggestion. This gives me some level of comfort.

Perhaps you do have decent drafts for all the essays by now. If not this link might help..

Hi Charu,

Where else apart from ISB are you applying? Have you prepared a first draft of ISB essays?

I have done that for essay 1 and essay 3 but essay 2 is giving me a nightmare. Although I have done an analysis of the essays: http://pulyanithinks.blogspot.com/2007/07/isb-application-2007-08-essay-analysis.html

Let me know if I'm missing out on some approach.

Just wanted to take this opportunity to bring our newly launched website to attention.

http://www.essaysformba.com

We have actually been in business for quite some time now, but were primarily focussed on receiving essay requests through recommendations and network. Thankfully the recommendations of our satisfied clientele ensured a steady stream of work. While this modus operandi still continues to be our main source, we have established web presence to augment it. Do try us out.

Задумалась о подарках на день рождения ребенку, ему четыре года, всевозможные-машинки-конструкторы у него уже есть навалом, ему нравится мышонок Тич. Я выискала типа подобной игрушки, только мишку http://mishkiland.ru/subcategory_item.php?id=603 , кто нить покупал такого? Есть смысл брать? Или посоветуйте что-либо еще. Не дайте малышу остаться без подарка от папы с мамы с папой.
