How To Make The Most Out Of First Few Months In MBA

June-July are the months when action begins in b-schools. Thousands of eyes filled with dreams and bank account debited heavily (barring a few) steps in to campuses. Welcomed with ‘Personality Development Sessions’, team bonding activities and long inductions (read: boring) kick off the first year. Often energy-draining, intense, experimental, sleepless, exciting and rewarding (depends upon choices you make); first year of MBA is definitely eventful.

NITIE - God's Own Campus

It is not without reason that NITIE is called the God’s Own campus with the NITIE pond being its crown jewel. NITIE is flanked by the picturesque Powai Lake on one side and the never ending Vihar lake on the other. One might be forgiven for thinking that the campus is a resort masquerading as a b-school as well.

ART Of Aligning With Alumni Relations Team

With all the dust around onboarding and induction into MBA colleges having slowly settled down, it is the season for committee selection processes, which are in no way less equal to the company placement processes. With already a month having passed, the senior committee of the placement savvy campuses by this time would have successfully elected their Junior Placements team choosing the creme de la creme of the talents who had walked in, trying to impress upon with their skillset in a very brief duration.

First Two Weeks Of The MBA Journey At XIMB

The happiness that you get when you finally get into the top business school after the stressful months of preparation for the most awaited exams of the year, writing applications and essays, just to get into one of the top colleges. So you thought that was it? Wait till you take your first class. That’s when the realisation hits you like a bullet. We hardly plan little further than that. I remember preparing for CAT, one of the tutors told something which I can never forget, "Do not think you are preparing to get into a b-school, CAT tests you how good you would be after going to a b-school, as a future manager".

Campus Radio At IIM Lucknow

Started in 2014 by the batch of 2016 as a promotional event for Manfest-Varchasva (the annual business, cultural and sports festival of IIM Lucknow), Campus Radio managed to create a hefty amount of buzz back then. After a gap of one year, it was revived in 2016 November to again promote the then upcoming edition of Manfest-Varchasva. It then took place in February 2017 again, right before the PGP31 batch graduated from IIM Lucknow, which was in fact pretty close to Valentines’ Day and even prom on campus.

Student Run Ventures At IIM Lucknow - Head2Toe - The Girls' Parlour At IIM Lucknow

As discussed in part 1 of the student-run ventures at IIM Lucknow article, this part 2 talks about Head2Toe, the girls’ parlour at IIM Lucknow. This academic year, three of us had the winning bid to run the parlour – Aishwarya, Surbhi and I. So far, we’ve been involved with the parlour for a little over a month since March mid, excluding the 2 months of the internship. However, even in the short span of time, it has proven to provide immense learning.
