rineet Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 Hello Friends, I am Rineet and I`m doing my 3rd year Engineering.I have a very important doubt to be clarified.Is it better to pursue higher education in the US right after finishing college in India or is it better to work in India for 1 or 2 years(software line) and then go to the US for higher studies? Is it true that one is sure of getting aid if he has work experience of 1 or 2 years?Please clarify these doubts for me.Thank you. Yours Sincerely, Rineet.

nirmalya123 Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 rineet, each option has itis own advantages and disadvantages.... No doubt some working experience can enhance your chance of getting aid...but its not guaranteed at all.... But for some softwork concern the work pressure is too high that it becomes difficult to find out times to cramp 4000 words, if one is not already familiar with them... but still work experience is good....:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ritwik Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Work experience is like an extra star on your record but if ur credentials are good enough without jobex then obviously there is no need to go for a job ... u can directly apply ... what is ur GPA, BTW?
