A Dialogue among three students on opting career option

Samir                     : Hi Jagadish!

Jagadish                 : Hi Samir! How are you?

Samir                     : I am fine dude, thank you. How about you?

Jagadish                 : I am fine too. What’s up? Err… Who is he?

Samir                     : Oh! He is my cousin, Kishor. Kishor, meet my schoolmate, Jagadish.

Kishor                    : Hi Jagadish!

Jagadish                 : Hi Kishor!

Samir                     : Kishor has just completed his Intermediate and he wishes to do B.Tech course.

Jagadish                 : Oh, I see.

Samir                     : He is unable to decide which branch he is supposed to opt.

Jagadish                 : Okay.

Samir                     : As you too are a B.Tech student and as you’re in final year, I request you to 

                                suggest Kishor in this regard.

Jagadish                 : Of course! Certainly man. Err… What is your score in Inter, Kishor?

Kishor                   : I got 950 marks bro.

Jagadish                : Very good. What is your EAMCET rank?

Kishor                   : I got 2000 rank, bro.

Jagadish                : Excellent! Your academic track is very nice. By the way what is your area of 

                               interest?

Kishor                   : Actually I am interested in handling/dealing with mechanical gadgets and I like                                     to know how the engine of motor bike works.

Jagadish                : I see.

Kishor                   : And I want to work on improving the mileage of the bikes as I like bike driving a lot.

Jagadish                : Perfect! So it is crystal clear to say that you had better choose mechanical                                             engineering with which all your interests will be fulfilled/achieved.

Samir                     : Actually you are right Jagadish. But the thing is, Kishor is told by others that in                                    the present times the boom is in software field.

Jagadish                : That’s okay. It may be right. So?

Samir                     : Based on this information on software field, Kishor wants to join CSE branch.

Jagadish               : Oh! Is it?

Kishor                   : Yes bro. But … my heart is in mechanical engineering. So I am in dilemma as I             am unable to decide my branch now.

Jagadish               : Fine. See, Kishor. Software field really has boom now, but it does not mean                  mechanical engineers do not have job opportunities.

Kishor                   : I see.

Jagadish               : There are plenty of job opportunities for mechanical engineering students. If you          study well, this field gives you a great career.

Kishor                  : Okay.

Samir                    : He (Jagadish) is right I think. As you are interested in dealing with mechanical              gadgets, mechanical engineering is a good career option for you.

Kishor                  : Hmm. Okay.

Jagadish               : The fact is, one should study a field which one is passionate about pursuing it.

Kishor                  : Yes! Your words are really convincible to me. It sounds like a good suggestion              bro.

Jagadish               : Don’t worry man. I am, being a mechanical engineering student, 100% sure that            you will have a great career with mechanical engineering.

Samir                   : He is right Kishor. As of our conversation, I too feel that mechanical engineering          is good a option for you.

Kishor                  : You both seem right in your words bro. If I join mechanical engineering, as I am            to interested in it, I can keep my heart and soul in it.

Jagadish               : Absolutely! If you study well right from your first semester, nobody can stop your

                                success.

Samir                    : Perfect! So all the best Kishor!

Kishor                  : Thank you Samir, Thank you Jagadish. I am really grateful to both of you for               your valuable suggestions.
