Thanks for the clarification guys, I just got to know that my sis studied cobol in her computer engineering too. She said she had a lot of difficulty using cobol. She says it is the worst language ever. I found one interesting quote also about cobol on the internet. "The use of COBOL cripples...

COBOL, are you kidding me? This is one of the most outdated language that I have ever come across. I know a person who studied cobol in his engineering about 10 years back and even at that time everyone in India considered this language to be obsolete. There were hardly any professors...

Recommended Android phones: 1) A bunch of premium HTC Phones such as Desire 2, Droid incredible and Evo 2) Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Recommended BB Phones: 1) BB Torch 9800 2) BB Bold 9700

I have not owned a BB as such but have tried almost all of their devices except the new BB torch. Most of my friends have a BB. Now I am using an android phone. The thing is that 1) The email works just as fine on android as on a BB OS 2) Keyboard - Now thats a different situation all...

Yes, I think apple should start giving out their software to other manufacturers or apple should launch a variety of IPhone models. A monopoly can never last forever. Inter-dependence is the key to long time success. Just as nations are interdependent, firms should also be inter-dependent to...

I am using a Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 powered by Android. I was about to buy a BB but decided not to and I think I made the correct choice :D .

Ok so which phones are you guys using? This question is specifically for the employed guys. I wonder whether all of you use Blackberry or there is some market for Android/IPhone in the corporate world? Do mention 1) The model name 2) The OS with its version

Yes, I understand this. I require a reputed brand name on one of my degrees also. Thats why I am considering Wake Forest and Duke. I come from India and the University of Pune. The University of Pune is one of the oldest universities in India and is reputed but it's name is not reputed...

Thanks, now quantnet is definitely awesome!

I like quantnet just as it is now. It is perfectly clear and concise. Only thing that i do not like is that a new post appears on top of the previous post. I think it would be better if the new post appears below the previous post.

I'll check all of them out. One prejudice that I have against the wake forest program is that it is a MA degree, I think that a MA degree does not have the same impact as a MS degree. Do you agree with this Anthony? I checked out the UVA program and i found one issue with it: Prerequisite...

Thanks. I will keep you posted.

Thanks, I will look into this program and get back to you. ***EDIT: I did look into the class profile and i guess this program is not the one for me. The average age of admitted students is 30 years and average no. of years of work experience is 6 years. This is their class profile. Master of...

Yes i have made a list but it comprises of only 3 schools 1) University of Rochester (Simon) - MS in Finance 2) Duke (Fuqua) - MMS, I have picked this school because of its brand name and the fact that most of the class is going to resemble the kind of profile that I have. Plus, I guess it is...

MS in Finance? Well, I want to do a MS in finance from the US. My current credentials are: Country of Citizenship : India Undergraduate Degree: Bachelor of Engineering 1st Major : Electronics 2nd Major : Telecommunications University Attended : University of Pune, India GMAT ...

Thanks Andy, I have decided to apply to few universities(3-5) now and also retake the GMAT in January. If i do get accepted in a decent MSF program then fair enough, If I don't get accepted, then also i will be having an awesome GMAT score for the admission process that begins in spring.

How can i get into mit? Their average gmat is 700+ and i only have a 640.

Please help me out guys, I did not get a reply for this earlier.

For MS in Finance? Any hope of getting admission in a good MSF program in the US? GMAT : 640 Q:47 V:32 AWA: Result awaited Undergraduate: Bachelors in Engineering University: University of Pune Country: India

I think it was UIUC. But i am not 100% sure.

Now that is concerning. Do year 12 scores from school also count (stupid question though) , I had a gpa of 4.0 in it.

I agree that gre would be good but i have exams starting november so i would not be able to give gre atleast until January. Though i find the gre quant to be fairly easy, still i want to ensure that i get a perfect quant score. Anyways Andy, Do you agree on all the information that Uncle max...

Thanks Uncle Max but theres just one detail you got wrong, I am giving the gmat right now & not the gre. Should i go for the gre? What if i get a 50+ in Gmat quant? Is it good enough? (like we say that 800 is good enough for gre quant to get admission)

Hi, Well this is my first post on quantnet & here goes. I am a final year student of bachelors of engineering in electronics & telecommunication from pune university in India. My Gmat date is on Oct 1,2010. I have 0 years of work experience & my gpa is just above 3.5 according to a gpa...
