I have a friend. He has applied for admission to Indian School of Business, Hyderabad. They didn't select him for their own reasons and sent him a great tactful regret letter.
MY PERSONAL VIEWS WHICH I DO NOT WISH TO IMPOSE ON OTHERS
I do not regret his non-selection.
I, as a Marxist, believe that ISB is a bourgeoise organisation. It , according to my beliefs , is a fraud on the society.
I, however, respect the freedom of individuals to select their own preferred educational institutions .
We live in a pluralist society.
I wish to add: Edison made a thousand field trials before he could succeed in inventing the electric bulb. One must keep on trying , without losing enthusiasm. Lord Krishna himself said in Gita, that result is not in our hands. A person has, sometimes, to die with unfulfilled desires.
Example: Pranab Mukherjee has to someday die with an unfulfilled desire of becoming a P.M. or the President. This world is full of unfulfilled or semi-filled or fully-filled desires.
The person, who gets his desires fulfilled, will also not be really happy. See Manmohan Singh and Rosaiah. They have become Prime Minister and Chief Ministers quite accidentally. (Should I say by a quirk of fate?). Are they really happy, in spite of their getting boons from the Goddess of Fortune?
Everybody is a bubble in history and human evolution. People forget them in a few decades. Even Mahatma Gandhi would lose his identity and sheen in a few decades.
We need not speak of Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy (former Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh , who died in a crash of his helicopter), if people forget Mahatma Gandhi himself. People may observe birth anniversaries and death anniversaries for some years. That's all.

One can do anything.
