"Its been a long time since I put up an article and thought it was about time I told you all, how it has been at a US business school and what the experience amounts to, at the end of the day. I am sure that my blog has been doing a decent job about updating on the fortnightly or so activities, so heres my attempt to run you all through the Surviving an International MBA. My take is that from the Fuqua stand-point. I am sure the experience will be similar elsewhere if not the same." - Simba aka Sowmya

LOL, now I understand what u meant! Jeez, my interpretations suck these days! 😃 Yeah, sure you can recommend the place but not sure how they can get an invite without knowing an insider! 😃

Great article there Simba :thumbsup: . A candour representation coupled with some really good insights. The thing that seems common to any Yem Bee Yeah be it a Foreign or an Indian B school and the one that confounds me is


As you try to pick up the first few assignments with your teams, you will be faced with various career workshops to help you through the maze of fields of consulting, investment banking etc. Guess which one has the maximum turn outs Of course, the workshops for Undecided people! Now, what the hell did more than 50% of the entire school write in their essays and how in the world did they gain admissions if they are still undecided? Haha, welcome to the world of uncertainties, thats an Yeam Bee Yeah world for you!


With most of the essay questions focusing on clarity of thought and a good amount of self introspection one tends to wonder whether it's purely the "Creativity Skills Unleashed" that take you there :huh: .

Looking forward to Part II for some more insights 😃 Kudos.

PS: Finally I saw the real lioness 😃 All the Best with PaGaLGirL, Nice initiative.
