The above news published in The Times of India proves how knowledge of English has become a must for getting an access to the better job opportunities. The number of so called convent (many times the meaning of convent is not clear to the people) or English medium schools and spoken English schools that are mushrooming at the nook and corner of our country gives a testimony of escalating popularity of this language. But despite several efforts, students especially from the small towns and remote areas find it very difficult to cope with the changing scenario. Several students find it more feasible to express their viewpoints in writing rather than speaking. So the aim of my research paper is to study various factors related to the knowledge of this language and its impact on the person's social, psychological, financial and personal success or failure. My paper also focuses on the difference between the academic English and general English due to which the students find them in dilemma.
