If you asked me around a year ago
about my graduate school plans, I would have probably told you that I wanted to
pursue an MBA abroad. By June last year, I have already begun reviewing for the
GMAT and have browsed through a lot of websites focused on choosing the most
appropriate school, achieving the highest GMAT score and providing the most
comprehensive set of tips on how to ace the application.
However, my dismal GMAT score
guaranteed bleak chances of being accepted into my dream schools. Thus, I found
myself in what I’d call a life limbo.
I had to rethink my plans because the original one did not turn out successful.
It took me a month of wallowing in the uncertain and the negative and a case of
dengue fever to chase a similar dream yet set in a grander city.
