Events Last week
Last week I did not try many things for my MBA admission. The reason was I was having a feverish feeling all the days. More over these days they have assigned me with the task of providing strategic direction for some blah..blah.. project. I do not know what directions I will provide..

Jayan's journey
My MBA journey
My journey for acquiring an US MBA began in July-2005. Initially I started off studying the OG and Kaplan. I had initially fixed my exam for Oct 19 but could not take it due to heavy work pressure. My office work started getting hot in mid august and continued till novembr. You wont beleive me if I say that I could not even touch any preperation material during the above period. So after some deliberation postponed my Exam date to decembr 21st.
I completed my office work by November 21st and then had some support work for two weeks. SO by december 1st I was done with my work and my rescheduled GMAT date was 21 st december. So I took three weeks off from office. I gave a test on Ist and My score in kaplan was 550. I was thoroughly disappointed. But decided to give my best shot. Started doing the OG SC again. Now my main intention was to think in the way the OG was analysing. Then slowly My Kaplan score strted to improve. By the second week it was 610. Then I gave the Power prep test and the score came to 750+. I was not impressed with this score because all the questions were from O.G. I dont know why they really have something like power prep if they cannot provide varitey. I took My GMAT on 21st
Now MY aim in life is clear. I want to do MBA from a top 10 US B-School.I will apply to some US B-Schools Ranked 5-10.I am not sure whether the score is enough..Let me see if any one can guide me..

Jayan's journey
Jayan's journey
I went to Chennai Book fair on 7th. There were lot of stalls. I bought couple of books from there. Monk Who sold his ferari, Fountainhead, Davinci Code and autobiography of Lance Armstrong.
This Autobiography was always on my list, Because I admire his achievements on the field. He has shown again and again that there is nothing in this world that can stop the human will. As the old saying goes..If you have a will you have a way..I will keep you posted about the reviews once I complete reading these books..
