(Every campus has a set of building, architecture or culture that defines the institution. For IIM Bangalore, it's the 'Stone Walls'; but then, there is one more special wonder in this campus, it's beautiful streets surrounded by mesmerizing greenery.

Decoding Medusa At IIM Lucknow - The One On Greek Mythology

Decoding Medusa At IIM Lucknow - The One On Greek Mythology

Another year, another round of interviews. Aspirants queue up outside the gates of B-schools, hoping to make it in. Dozens of variables come into play in deciding the fate of the quintessential aspirant. The aspirant’s brain is a swirling mass of information about the top B-schools – the culture, opportunities, clubs, brand, academic rigour to name a few.

She waltzes in your home boasting of the son of her second removed cousin who made it into the best B-school in the country. You think to yourself, ‘I had 99 problems, now I got 100’.
