Hi

I have been offered a 1 year course in Purdue University(MSIA).
I have 3 years of work exp and my GMAT score was 700 GPA -3.65
But there wont be any int'ship opportunity in the course so being an
international student it can be really tough for me to get placed too.
This is the only admission I got this year. So I am in a big dilemna
whether to join the course.

So please can u help me and provide all the prospects of a 1 year course
without any int'ship and specialization for a guy with 3 years of IT experience !!![/quote]

I think you have identified the potential issue with a 1 year program. The lack of an internship can make a career switch more challenging. I suggest you contact their career center to discuss and see what resources they have and what their placement record is. The other benefits, such as network and academics of your program remain the same but the job search may be different and not as beneficial.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
