IIM Shillong - A Leap Of Faith

The first term in an MBA college has to be one of the most, if not the most demanding time of the entire two-year programme. Sleepless nights, endless assignments and deadlines which seemed almost impossible to meet pretty much sums up my first three months in IIM Shillong. Since I come from an engineering background, it took me a while to get acquainted with subjects like finance, marketing and economics. Our courses included Statistics, Behavioural Science, IT tools, Accounting and the like. While these courses introduced me to a lot of key and interesting concepts, I would like to share my experience from a rather humble course called Self-Leadership and Communication (SLC).

IIM Shillong - Campus In Clouds

Located in the picturesque place far away from the hustle and bustle of a metro city, IIM Shillong provides the ideal environment to learn and grow professionally. With a small campus and an even smaller batch size, one can interact and know everyone in the batch. Peer learning is the most crucial part of surviving an MBA course, and a small batch size facilitates it even more. Friendships that we make in an MBA college will be beneficial once we enter the corporate world.

IIM Shillong - The Campus That Makes You Fall In Love With Mother Nature

As many of you must have heard before, we call IIM Shillong the “Campus in Clouds”. However, it’s not just the clouds which define the beauty of our campus; it’s everything from the hills to the tall-standing trees to the sun shining brightly in the cold weather. So is the charm of this place that each one of us has embraced the beauty of the North East and inculcated a never-ending love for Mother Nature.

Tee To Putt – Life At IIM Shillong

When I first reached IIM Shillong, we were welcomed by one question in particular i.e. Why IIM Shillong? Well, we all know how seats are filled in colleges in India which we so famously called as the “Bhed Chaal” or the bandwagon effect. We all try to choose our best call filtered out from all the psychological rankings we keep framing within our mind. However, we cannot spit out bluntly the irrational (or is it rational – think again – we wouldn’t have hesitated answering it then) way of making our choice. Coming back to the question, the minute someone is asked to answer it, he will start justifying it based on other factors which he never thought of all together till now. One such factor which people pick up from others is - “IIM Shillong has a golf club which hardly any other business school in India can boast of”.

IIM Shillong - “The Campus In Clouds” – An Institution Above All

The title is self-explanatory to all those who are or were associated with IIM Shillong (the campus in clouds). The Lingo “Campus in clouds” signifies more than just a balmy weather of state capital of Meghalaya. BUT, why should you even care what it signifies for? Or why you should understand IIM Shillong as an institution? If you are or wish to be self-aware person, the answer is very simple “Behavioural Understanding of your surrounding in a simple most sense”.

IIM Shillong - On Late Night Sessions And Discussions

Out of a batch of 180, almost 33% of the students graduated from eminent institutes like IIT’s, NIT’s, BITS Pilani, SRCC & Ramjas College. Apart from these, we have multiple charted accountants and certified financial analysts. With such a diverse batch, the competition ought to be intense academically. But, with so many CA’s and CFA’s around, the candidate who got an A+ (highest grade awarded) in managerial accounting is an engineer who graduated neither from commerce nor has an under graduation degree from eminent IITs or NITs. One may wonder the reason behind this anomaly which is rarely occurred in other management Institutes. Well, let me explain the reason behind this. Our batch is very closely knit, and I can proudly say that each one of the 180 people is a friend of the other. There are no egos and no groups at our college. We as a batch highly believe in peer learning, and that is the reason each one of us is equally good in all subjects irrespective of our under-graduation backgrounds. The classrooms in our college are always open and every night after the rigorous daily academic sessions, students who are good at a subject or concept float a mailer to the whole batch informing them about the session that he/she is going to conduct on a topic. And let me make it clear that such late-night sessions and discussions are a common sight at IIM Shillong.
