大慌てでTOEFLやGMATの準備をしている状況だけど、
これと並行してやらなくちゃいけないのが奨学金への応募。
いかんせん、現在無職でしかも貯金も十分とはいえない中で、
どうしても奨学金は必要。
かなり競争率も高いし、優秀な人が数多く申込んでいるから、
数打ったところで選考を通過できる、というわけではないのだけど、
せめてこれくらいの努力はしないと。
無職の一発逆転、奨学金が後押ししてくれると良いんだけど。
身体に無理を利かせて体調を崩し、それでも無理を重ねて
とうとう療養を余儀なくされてからしばらく時間が経つ。
運悪く妻も体調を崩して面倒を見たり、面倒を見てもらったり、
いろいろと大変だったからこそ、今回の留学にかける思いも
一入。
とにかく、空き時間で前職のNPOの手伝いをしつつ勉強や
家事、看病をしながら準備して、目標校で勉強したいなー。
働いていないと言うことで、世間様の風当たりは厳しいもので
きっとMBAのAdmissionもこのあたりは容赦ないはず。
その意味でも、今月末のフルブライトはある種の前哨戦って
感じなんだろうな。
まずはエッセーの準備をしっかりして、どうやって自分を
売り込んでいけるか、戦略たてないと。
今月下旬にはTOEFLが控えているし、頑張って110点越えて
安心したいな、道は険しい。
でも、働きながら頑張って血反吐はいて準備している人も
たくさんいるんだし、甘ったれたこと言わずに周りの人を
見習って全力でやろう、がんばろー！！
Two months have passed since I decide to take an MBA course in U.S. Currently I am studying hard for coming TOEFL and GMAT. At the same time, I am preparing for applying scholarship. I need to apply every scholarship available because I am unemployed and do not have much fund for the course. I do understand that I have to compete with many competent and efficient applicants for the very limited slots but I believe at least I must take a shot. Hopefully, I will be admitted and any scholarship will help me reach my goal.
As I do not work now, people regard me as incompetent or weird, it is not difficult for me to assume that MBA admissions would also be very severe about it. Likewise, the selection by Fulbright would be very challenging for me and I must be well prepared and submit the very best application to the organization. First I should plan how to make them understand and like me and write the required essays. There are lots to do as I have a TOEFL test this month. I wish I could score over 110 and will have enough time to concentrate on GMAT. However, I am probably a lucky one because I can focus on my study as others do not have much time studying because of the daily work. As such, I cannot indulge myself and I will just do my best without any complaints!!
