I feel there is some misunderstanding here abt what info I am asking for.. Things like what kind of difficulties one needs to be aware of for visa related stuff for each of the countries & what are the univs which give a good amount of scholarships to international students and the job scenarios in particular countries are not something people can get from a B-school's website!! It can be accurately given only by someone who has already been there or seen it. What use is your experience if one cant share it with someone else?
I have already browsed through quite a lot of B-school websites & also some other info sites, but could not get a clear answer to these 3 things which are the most important factors to one who is planning their career in any of these countries!! All these sites mention about their courses and their fees.. and give links to their financial aid department. This applies to ALL the students who apply there.. But we need to know it from our seniors how it was for people like them.. like us! We learn from the deeds and mistakes of others. I thought this forum is for sharing and helping each other.
As someone here mentioned, there are lot of Indian students in IESE. But how do I know if they are not sons of tycoons?? Exactly!! How do I know?? I need to know from someone who is there to tell me how it works for an ordinary student who needs scholarships and good jobs.. These tycoons will neither apply for schol nor wud they need a job. So how will I know from IESE's website if they are suitable for Indian students?
My query is related to the country and school on how it fits for students like us & NOT which university has the maximum Indian students. It is a more generic and practical issue related query.
Pls note, I am NOT asking here which B-school will fit MY profile or which B-school is good for my kind of experience. All THESE things are what will show in my essays - if I have not researched on these or just taken opinions blindly from someone else.
What I am asking people here is that - whoever has done research , atleast show some direction in more practical issues related to the apping process & beyond that! (which are not available in an organized manner anywhere)
For example: I read in Businessweek that getting jobs in Australia is easy. In PG, I saw many threads which mentioned that some people have been forced to return to India because the Australian work permit laws are pretty strict. I need to know what is the real picture in Australia and what are the things one can do to avoid trouble. Do I get it from AGSM's website? Now tell me, who will clear this confusion?? If we people look on PG as the place where we share knowledge & help each other, why should I get a reply here saying do the research urself? I dont need to join this forum for this.
When I was going thro PG, i saw that there have been such queries in many threads in this category, with answers for different countries scattered here and there..
I just wanted to collate all that and provide a good idea of these factors in each country!
Now, if anyone still feels I will get answers to all these on some B-school's website or some other site, I request you to please forgive me for being so unaware and give me the link to it.
This thread is not to discuss issues, rather to ask & answer definite questions!
