I have been trying to get an admission for mms/ post graduation in business management..and the whole process has been really frustrating.
First - the wait (the whole process takes almost 8 months), second - the fight for seats (too many students and few seats available) and third -the way the entire process is handled itself causes frustration..(lack of notifications to useless helplines to name a few reasons).
The quota system...I feel maybe there was a need for it at some point of time now its just misused/abused (except quota for the physically challenged). What position merit holds, I have no clue...(im talking about my merit here, consider above average). And the rich get seats, influence also works, the rest have to struggle...
Belonging to a minority community, I had a chance too, but didn't apply for the quota reserved seats. Honestly, I just thought I didn't need a quota seat, thought I will get a seat on the basis of my merit...in a better college.
But I strongly believe we do get another chance... I believe everything happens for a reason. I have got another chance...my last chance (atleast for this year)..I am waiting.
