Continuing our conversation from the previous episode in choosing a route after Bachelors in India, in this episode, we share our experiences of making the move to an international university (USA, Australia and Canada)- right from choosing a university, landing in one and navigating everything in between. Varada also shed some light on how to choose a clinical route post Masters while Prutha and our episode guest, Pooja Jethani, helped us in understanding their different journeys of continuing academia and taking an educator role.
