Studies abroad
by arunita sarkar on Jun 22, 2007 12:27 AM

I did my Masters in Berlin. It was a great international experience. Their system of education is so different, they train you to perform on the stage, rather than just giving lessons on how the stage is made and what is required to be there. It's also true that to be in one of the best institutions in India it takes in a lot of hard work and even after various slogging sessions of tutorials at 4 am you might not get a seat. Such failures can even ruin your self confidence. Initially I found it very difficult to cope the German, Chinese, or latin American standards as these student are too close to perfection , what they have learnt as a child is like a permanent memory within them, unlike us where we write exams byhearting text books and finally remember hardly anythin we read in our lives. Their writing skills, analytical knowledge is sharpened since a kid by giving practical tasks. The bottom line is ..getting this kind of experience back home will truely proove beneficial not just for you but also the company who hires you. Trust me they can note the difference if you are trained here..
