Its been long time since I posted anything out here.All these days I was ruminating over what all things could be done if I postpone my MBA by an year.
I honestly evaluated my candidature, I realized many of my strengths and weaknesses.
1)WE: This August I completed 4 years of work experience. By next fall it would be 5 years. If I postpone by 1 year I would have close to 2 years of international experience.
2)WE: Also, in the US I can diversify my profile work experience in some enhanced role or shift into relationship management or sales. This could add another dimension to the work ex.
3)Build Transcript: I can build my transcript by taking some credits in economics / accounting from near by university in the US while I am working. (May b U of Florida)
4)Learn Foreign Language: China is making huge strides in global market place and its economy is showing sustained double digit growth and is destined to be super power in a decade to challenge dominance of the US. Will it be good idea to start learning Mandarian ? But thats hell difficult to learn..If not possible I will start learning french.
5)Extra-Curr & Community service : I had taken salsa classes till level 2. I will further my interest there..may be learn tango too :) Can indulge in some atheletics and sport activity too... Regarding community service I will do anything if it comes naturally...not thought of anything as yet but something like fund-raising for some NGO working to address global warming ..would be great ...
WOW !!! Several things to add....
May be I should be able to put in solid app in top (10-15) if above things materialize....I am hoping that within 1-2 weeks my date for travel should be fixed.
Currently, I have put up "WORK IN PROGRESS" board on many fronts of life...praying hard to make things work for me..

ur plan sounds super... go get rolling :)
all the best
My 2 cents on ur thoughts about putting off the app for another year: never leave to tomorrow what you can do today - believe me I've learned this the hard way
Go for it - I think you have what it takes!

there was a time when i too passed through same dilemma.
and i chose to be at cleint location, to learn and earn.
and sicne past 3 years i am still doing the same.
only thing i have learned from life, at time when you are moving towards your dream, there will be hell lof of luring objects in your way. that is the main time when you have to show your determination.
anyway, best of luck for your future.
NB: I might not be reading your blog again, as I just came across accidently :-)
