Deadlines Approaching

All over the world students who wish to pursue higher education cram their way out of this enormous process of Master’s in the State.
My personal experience was, I wasn’t much aware of all the confusion one has to go through this entire preparing till applying process. Well, hold on there, it doesn’t end at the application, you have many many other formalities before you really land at your dream university.
I am an average student, with decent academics and a decent extra curricular. Like all the dreamers who wish to succeed and are ambitious about their future, I wanted to study in a big University like, MIT, Stanford and Caltech. At that instance, you are very naive to understand that getting into these colleges is NOT AT ALL EASY. There are many reasons for this, like, high tuition fees, low acceptance rate, high GRE, high acads, at least 2  international papers, and the list goes on.
I was then stuck by this other question of which country to apply to, USA, Germany, Australia, Canada. I was mostly in a dilemma between USA and Germany, while I narrowed it down to USA. Going to USA is NOT easy, but living their is comparatively easier, not that hostile.
Next comes the Preparing GRE stage……………………………………………………………………….. and it never ends.
There are hundreds of on-line resources available on how to crack GRE, score 320+ in one month, etc, etc. I say, bullshit. Your GRE is 99% on your luck, if the day was lucky, you sail through it. Else, pay $190 and retry till you cross a 300 score.
I will be soon posting a post on preparing GRE and the study material and references, do go through it once.
Then is the most difficult task of Selecting your colleges. This confusion has been very lucrative for the counselling firms, they charge $200 to
  1. Help YOU decide YOUR dream college
  2. Write YOUR Statement of purpose
  3. Write YOUR lors
  4. Fill YOUR application
  5. Prepare YOU for YOUR visa interview.
Students don’t realise that the entire application process revolves around YOU and not THEM. They merely guide you and confirm your admit. But, ask your friends how many counsellors have ever got students get admitted into ambitious colleges?
I say NONE.
They make you apply to very safe colleges, where you will get a scholarship as well, and that’s their business model.
I am writing this blog to help students like me, in simplifying the entire application process. You don’t need to pay hefty amounts for your counselling.
Guys, keep up with the blog, the super cheap counselling site is on !!

Friendship's Day

A FRIEND IN NEED IS A FRIEND INDEED

The consulting idealist will discuss about the importance of a friend in a human being's life....
    Friends are F: Forever
                        R: Residing
                        I : In
                        E: Environment and
                        N:Never
                        D:Dying 
Yes folks, friends are those part of our lives which never die, the friendship we create will never fade; its omnipresent ,it's in our environment of heart and soul.
Some friendships last a lifetime while some end soon, but the ones that end, do they not create memories? 
Are they not the once upon a time precious jewels, which made you laugh ?
Circumstances make these changes and people believe they have moved on, but how can anyone move on from a once best friendship. 
To all those people who broke their friendship apart due to unavoidable reasons, cheers, because you moved on, you made a million new friends as well as sorrow, you lost one of your gem. 
The friendship's day is celebrated on the first Sunday of August,i.e., 2nd August'2015. Initially it was started by card companies to increase revenue and sell cards, but now it is celebrated internationally by tying friendship bands and gifting cards.
Its a medium of making new friends, telling old ones you still are my friend and silently unfriending a lot of people by not wishing them.
I find friendships day analogous to Raksha Bandhan, an Indian festival, where the sister ties a sacred thread(Rakhi) on the brother's wrist and the brother owes to take care of his sister. It's a method of tying a Rakhi or modernly called as friendship band, its a tie between two souls that promise to take care of each other. 
It is a promise that whatever happens I will be besides you through rough and smooth, happiness and sorrow, success and failure. 
The custom of tying threads is very sacred, it depicts that the two souls are now connected, consider marriages to holding hands, its the creation of a connection between two humans. 
Friendship day can be celebrated with your parents, teachers, family and obviously friends, it's a promise 'REMEMBER', do abide by it faithfully .

Interesting Questions !!!

All those brainy people around the world, they have millions of interesting questions in their super smart brains. 
Interesting Questions is a post for the many of few interesting questions people come across and which need to be answered.
Lets begin with a few:
1. Rains are in , but we still struggle to find nice running waterproof shoes, ever wondered why the shoe companies don't put a plastic cover inside them ?
If the shoes are made waterproof then there will be no circulation of air, the feet will be in a state of vacuum, whereas in these days of technology our feet needs to breathe if we wish to run a marathon. 
So we need to come up with a combined effort for sport shoes, using technology and big brains.

The consulting idealist has a solution for waterproof shoes, wait for the next post or comment !!
