Why Texas ?

If you think that sitting for GMAT is the most  difficult part to fulfill dreams of your MBA then you are wrong. It is the application process that follows the GMAT exam is the real hurdle. A deep level of introspection and understanding of your desires and goals is needed to decide on the right country/school. An even deeper level of understanding is needed when you start writing essays as google wont help. It is you and your aspirations alone that will result in meaningful worded essays.

More than impressing admission committee the essays help you realize if the dream you are chasing is really the one you should b chasing. Not everyone is fit for field of business/ management, some people are so technology inclined that they should stick to their strengths than chase a herd of sheep.

For me , MBA is a necessity to present my full potential to the world. More than academics, MBA for me is about experience of lifetime that will help me meet new people, explore new horizons and understand business from new perspectives.  America is the right choice of country as its exceptional educational experience attracts students from all the parts of the world. In India, Only numbers are given focus due to which the personality traits important for success in long-run remains unexplored. 

My colleague was asking if he should try for education in Europe and I think that only knowing an European language is not a real benefit if you are not fluent in it because it will really impact your professional growth which relies heavily on coordination with team.So Europe is a no-no.

Belonging to a tropical country like India , I don't think I would like the cold regions of America. 
But there are some regions like Texas which have temperatures similar to those in Delhi. Also, my friends are in Texas so starting a new life in that part of the world would be easier as compared to others.  What I have heard about Texas is mostly positive in teams of safety, weather, culture, diversity and cost of living. Given this I would really try for Texas and will hope that may luck be in my favor to help me achieve my goals.
