Ah, This kinda cleared the doubt which I was having . And , yes it has helped me alot in understanding how an application should be presented . it looks like it should be like a story , everything in a flow .mcbMcK wrote:Rockstaaa wrote:
well doing following are the reasons why i did my economics :
1. cover up low gpa
2. only jobs available with a b.com(a and f) was accounting jobs
3. I was always intrested in economics
4. there was this guy whom i used to look up to while i was in mck . he had done his masters in economics and then did his mba .
5. i could have done a pgdm at that time , but i didnt want to do a pgdm from "just" another university in the city or in india .
6. and i had financial issues at home .
Basically these were the reasons . do u think it would have been better if i could have just gone for a job and not for a masters in economics ? is that the reason which screwed up my profile ? (cause i have a younger sister and even she is planning to do the same ).

Dear Rockstaaa,
I wouldnt say the profile is screwed up or you did something right/wrong. The point is to present this in the most logical manner so that your decisions are not misconstrued by the adcom. For instance, 2, 3 and 6 above are perfectly valid reasons.
The only thing I am pointing to is, think of how the various dots in your profile connect, to make what you are today - assuming all of those dots were made by you in the first place, consciously and with a certain rational motive.
Helps?
Ok, this is my final question . Would you suggest that my profile is strong enough for ISB R2 ?
Or is there anything more I can do to improve my profile ? willing to take one more year to improve it if i can make it stronger .
Thanking and Requesting ,
Rockstaaa
