Laziness was something I was very proud of. Maybe because it saved me from a disaster once, I never thought I'd give it up. When I look back at it, most of the time in my life I've ended up either being lazy, or extremely lazy. No other ways around. But when I looked at my CAT application for the final time before submitting it, I knew, after this, my life would change and so would I. And it did. For the first time when work was being piled over my head, and the deadlines creeped along slowly, I thought I'd crumble, but surprisingly, I didn't.The realization that you just need to start giving your best shot and everything will fall in place finally hit me. The transition from a lazy guy to someone who is slowly changing his behavior is something I never expected, but is something I'm very proud of. And trust me, if you're one like me, your life at SOM would definitely change your perspectives, and if you're one of the 'foot on the ground' kind of person, well you can reap more from this campus than anything else in the country. I could put that down in a bond for you. On the out, the four to six hours of classes might look like a cheapskate, but in terms of academic rigor, SJMSOM fairly stays ahead in competition in the race with the other prestigious b schools of the country. We have courses ranging from the general pillars of business - finance, operations, marketing, strategy, hr, analytics to courses such as photography, presentation skills, creative writing that one can pursue from IIT - B. And that's the creme la creme or being in SJMSOM - you get to experience the MBA life, while getting a chance to be part of the immensely active campus life of IIT - B. That includes a chance to be part of mood indigo, tech fest, abhyudhyay, E Summit and every other event that happens at IIT B. If you have an interest, you have an array of opportunities out here. Campus wise, SJMSOM hands down thumps all of its competitors. Being in the financial hub of the country - Mumbai, the institute offers a prime advantage to it's students. From being accessible to students hailing from nook and corner of the country, to being able to bring in imminent speakers from all over the world, the college sets a standard in itself. Speaking of which, SJMSOM, IIT Bombay has one of the highest industry interaction session ratio in the entire country. Right from surprise diksha sessions almost atleast twice a week, to weekend continuums - the rolling seminar series of SJMSOM, one would get a chance to interact with industry stalwarts over the entire academic year. You'd love your day at SOM. Right from it's 4 to 6 hours class schedule, to the way classes are arranged, SOM gives student a plethora of opportunities to indulge and improvise in whatever extracurricular activity they know, like or want to learn. You'd love the morning walks to class, the sprint from class to hostel 15 during lunch breaks, the short breaks at Nescafe, the vast menu at Gulmohar and the way the campus shines in itself. The campus is a Serene beauty, being bordered by the Powai lake and the Sanjay Gandhi National Park. To all the pluviophiles, IIT Bombay's campus glows in all its beauty during the rainy August - October season and to all the ones who love the sun, the campus is perfect to stroll through during January, February and March. We also have our mini Sameer Hill, which offers a great view of the Powai lake being bordered by the Hiranandani Gardens. And along with the beautiful skyline, photography enthusiasts will always find beauty snaps of nature - a gift secretly bestowed upon us. Mumbai gives a great time to party and relax. Right from the beaches, to the shopping malls and night clubs, Mumbai is a pretty active place and gives you a great time to explore. The Marine Drive is the hangout place for almost all of us, and the nights strolls by the sea is something you'd start to love as the days go by. SJMSOM has a very good placement record and one of the best ROI's in the country. And if you have an additional motive rather than to get placed in few of these amazing companies that visit here asterisk, gaining knowledge, this is the place you should be. Our professors are some of the greatest in the country, few in the world. The placement days will be hectic, but if you can survive till the process ends, SJMSOM, IIT Bombay is one place where you'd have a great ratio of curriculum - you time. And if you can put some extra weight behind what you do, there's no surprise if you come out as few of the best managers in the country when you graduate. We learn to leave behind memories as we grow in our institute. Because, that's how successful managers are made. Before you realise, you'd grow into someone your peers will remember and the industry will love. And that's what SJMSOM strives to turn you into - successful managers and aspiring leaders of the country, and the entire world.
