Please note that these views don’t represent entire student community and based on my personal discussion with two other professional students.

Last Sunday, I went to a friend’s house. He is a B.com and works in Genpact company. There came 2 other friends of him unknown to me. I interacted with both of them.The purpose of conversation was nothing but it put a serious issue to think about. They were doing MBA and MCA.They were not happy with what they were doing.

The MCA student was doing part time job.

There views were similar like this:-

“Till now, I don’t know what should I do and what will I do in life. Now I feel I never wanted this kind of life. Now I feel that I am nothing and I got nothing. There seems no future and if its there, it’s dark. But I am still hopeful.  Most of the time I am happy but sometimes I am hopeless and ashamed. I am ready to fight but don’t know who is the enemy, whom to blame. I feels like cheated to be educated. Both invested many lacks in education but still feared about getting job.

More or less, most graduate students falls in same category due to unemployment or unemployability. Is this the fault of students or our country's Education system?

well it remind me of the movie " 3 idiots"..  its actually both who are fault..students dont want to pursue excellnece,they are just runnung after degrees..to get degrees they enroll thenselves to any other college .all colleges are not worhy,they are there just to make money,its business for them..all students even are not worthy..its not necessary for all to get masters done..if y ou have capability surely the company will hire you..they always look for people who can contribute to their growth,..on the contrary if you are not skilled enough,why would they hire you? they wont just pay you because you have done MBA,MCA ,CA or any other course..IF you are capable enough you will not worry about job...

I mean yourself so capable that you dont have to depend on jobs for your sustainibility

 

it's  not the fault of system .... it's the mistake of a person's own.

One should take right carreer advice or counselling from parents or experts ....

 for example ...

I used to blame myself for not taking science. My whole class  and my teachers used to give me a lecture 

upon why should I choose  science as my career........ there was not a single day in my class X when I was

not adviced. Everyone was so supportive.  As my school didn't offer science  ....So I would need to just change my school..... and that school was  just 10 steps away from my old school ........ and even in that school I have lots of friends over there  and + my best frn was also taking science.  She even used to promise that we both will be studying together and there won't be any problem.

I used to give so many excuses like :-

  • I won't be  a ranker then
  • I can't understand physics anymore
  • I would be alone in new school and so many stupid excuses .......

 

I also want to take science ..... but my  real fear was  I don't think I could be a good doctor in any way ...

 

because  I feel horribly afraid from medicines and specially  I can't see anyone in pain .......  and the dream  of  when you will learning science you would have to experiment on rabit . I used to feel at times  that I  didn't done right   to choose commerce ......

 

But the reality is ........ May be my fear won't led me anyway in science stream as well. 

I learnt this lesson  too late. When I felt I made a wrong choice by choosing commerce , my rank decrease from topper to  just pass. All I did was intentionally. Because I used to think like there is no meaning to be something .., because I missed the chance of being a Doctor by taking a wrong decision. And I can never reverse this decision no matter how much I want it  .... such thinking process become so deep and vast in years  which .... ultimately became the result of my failure in  CA. 

 

so I think it's better to count on real factor why you choose this or that in spite of seeing what you could have been if  you really choosed your dream.  because there must be some genuine reason for not choosing your real dream

 

Now whenever I look back in my life , I realize how wrong I used to think ....... but I think If you know your mistake.... you can't just reform it but can also make it your strength.angel

And I am happy today that I realized my mistake .

dear Deepak, pooja, and others on this question,

I had been a visiting aculty in several business schools since 1974 when i was then shie general manager o a European Dredging enterprise working in Indian deence projects and port dredging projects managing a very huge contract indian and oreign labor/skilled technicians and Engineers and other proessionals numbering in thousands at dierent projects right rom Naval dock yard mumbai./then Bombay.

With my exposure in very tough industry working under dierent countries government projects i was requested by then Bombay/Andhra/Pune/Bangalore universities/and establishments like college o Naval Warare/BARC/Bajaj institute/other business schools teaching management students till 2009, my view is, one need not worry but one need to have a grip o particular line o work and willing to work with passion or excellence.

Truth is scholastic studies have nothing to do with real business management except in core  engineering/accounts areas where you need high specialization studies.

Management studies is just a general understanding o business only but that cannot really tackle the real business environment.

colleges claim a lot but it is or theindividual need to clearly work or excellence in his or her chosen ield, i one has to succeed.

one can know how the industries were run rom 17/18/19/20th centuries. then we did not have any business studies but we all established most stable industries is it not.

However one needs to note some college studies give you some better understanding i you really study the subjects not oriented to examination point o view.

i you really want to learn you need to really put smart hard work with proper well oriented marketing imagination then you can succeed continuously. Pooja is right when she said you need to have passion to Excellence.

Today Excellence means money but in act not money real custimers you need to build network o customers and it is arduous task and yet no way you have to that is called smart hard work.

regards n thanks

beautifully said Renu....and hats off to you for sharing your such a personal experience....

Nyc sharing by Renu,

What i feel is that , lack of guidance , direction ,& good company  are bull type of drivers of a students life,  which changes a students life or say directs student life..

its my personal experience..

dear Renu,

truth is that you realized mistake is the great thing you did. Like is a product o several mistakes.

Greatness is you have realized now enen though belated, better late than never. 

see  one should ask elders or advice not riends just because they are as good as you is it not.

In colleges, problem is young teachers without experience in hard real world, so what you get.

in my youth when doing even in my PhD program in Insitute o economic growth we never asked rinds or co schoolers or their advice as we knew then what is a point asking a person as good as you?

teachers/proessors were very genuine concerned o the real students and yet they used to discuss with their
Heads o departments or other elders with like experience beore they dispence advice, that way we were better o. then

Our proessors never used to tell us this education will give this and that career to you. You study now what you opted and when on boat on living  starts do not over emphasize your scholastic greatness that is no where near your work/job areas, or the reason is never education help give you uture projections ater all uture is never the same as yesterday so education is on tested by time experience and there is no guarantee   the same will come tomorrow to help  you. 

By education we learn to be humble beore tomorrow so we used to say whatever will be will be let us learn about the past on the experieces recorded that way hypotheses are born, no surity every hypothesis is simply great but a view only need not necessarily to be used that way the whole world went on moving. So when we joined college not or diplomas/degrees /certiicates/ but really or learning that way passion or excellence on understanding as to what happened and yet i some things repeat we are lucky else we never got worried.

that way we lived or several centuries and we were succeessul .

so never be worried about past but  be happy  what you do but do it conscientiously with passion or excellence that way i s my  view.. so do not worry any more. that way i rose in my lie to be company director o govt authority and now a senior advocate o supreme court and i am well . that is the lesson o my experience. i you like take a lea o my experience, just because even today i am a sr consultant to Americans in  USA and elsewhere, all that is needed is passion or excellence even though i am 70+ regards.

let ICAI give two more good results I assure you the major Source of Income ICAI so called fresh ACA and majority will be paid less than 50 k in mojor case

                   fiveyear course and 50k not recommended in any case such course having reagard to recent trent i can give list of UK US AND UAE BPO which conducted Industry analysis tht even some easy 3 year courses are more paid than CA 

      then WHY CA 4 year nd some case 5 to 8 years look like people are getting CHEATED NOT EDUCATED

 

In my view it is the fault of Student.

I want to share my own life experience here. When in my 10th std itself I aimed to become CA. I am eagerly waiting for time to make it true. I complete my 12th std and join in BCOM side by side I am doing CA and as a first step of it I complete CPT in 2nd year of BCOM .

 

Then I join my Article ship and eagerly involve in work by that 2 years past but not having full involvement in studies.

 

My first attempt  CA  PCC came. I am in Confusion and having so many WH Questions are circling my mind.

 

 What going to happen in my Future?  How to face my Parents & Other if fail? What books to follow?  What type of question they ask?  In which way I have to present? etc.

 

I was crying a lot  by think about my past of wasted two years and in future what I going to be. I don’t know what to do. What ever I do Where ever I go one think is always hitting my mind (i.e) What going to happen in your Future.

 

All my study leave are went off. Finally exam day I am having full confident by seeing question paper  that I going to fail in this Attempt.

 

 At last by wasting 2.5 year I find out what went in my life for 2.5 years and who is the Enemy for me. To whom I have to fight ?  (i.e) FEAR OF MY FUTURE.

 

After that I fight with my enemy and I clear CA PCC and Now I reaching CA Final with same hope and having peace in my life.

 

By this I want to say Fear of Future is only thing that ruined  our present & Future life.

 

Fear that show the right way but if u have more Fear that block your way.

 

Unemployment  & Under employment is always give fear to the Student but if  the Student who take it in a competitive way can come back in life with success.

very much true
 

Thank you so much Pooja, Renu, Poonam, Chitra, Vandana ji, Lokesh ji and Gbalakrishnan ji,

for putting your views.

i think the reason is neither students nor education institues, its is only lack of jobs for the huge no. of graduates. So we need to be little innovative by taking risks in other areas like business, manufacturing etc. We need to create chances instead of waiting for them.

Not only many students but also many education institutes have weaknesses in them. We can only win by fully utilizing every chance comes to our way. we need little extra efforts to get success in highly competative world. Only we can find solution for us, not anyone else
