Things You Won’t Learn In An MBA

While there are a plethora of things that you will learn and do in your MBA, a lot of stuff that you thought you’ll learn here might never really happen.

Aarambh - The Kathor Life Begins at IIM Rohtak by Anusha P. Krishnan

“Aarambh-The Beginning" most appropriate title for the Personality Development Programme(PDP). We the 149 member crew, rather “Kathors” had never thought in the wildest of our dreams that there will be such a big bang to end our lackadaisical days. The 179th day of this year was auspicious for us in all aspects of life. We knew we were all here at Indian Institute of Management Rohtak (IIMR) finally for a purpose, though the real purpose of doing a Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) varied for each “Kathor”.

The IIM-L Time-Turner

The IIM-L Time-Turner

I rushed to the examination hall and took up my seat. The Finance quiz begins in another two minutes. Thanks to the IIM-L time-turner that I could take the quiz and also attend the seminar at the same time. After all IIM Lucknow has so much to offer to its students that you want to miss nothing. The variety of subjects, the range of seminars and the potpourri of events have made learning such a craving for its pupil that time becomes a crucial factor. IIM-L being a constellation of supreme brains came up with the concept of time-turner. Now time-turner is a time-travelling devise that enables you to be at two or more situations simultaneously. Hence the prodigies of IIM L can attend more than one class at the same time. Obviously they were inspired by Professor McGonagall’s gift to Hermoine in the Harry Potter Series. But the fact was it worked. Now device had become the favourite neckpiece of the IIM-L students and they were bagging knowledge like never before.
