The best music transcends your playlist or your CD and it moves into a difference in your life where it just becomes your companion. It does something more than just makes you sing along. It hopefully places somewhere in your life in a time that you always remember.
MBA is not a degree, it's a journey unlike any other. It's more than DCP (Desperate Class Participation), 11:59 PM deadlines and sleepless nights. Okay no, it's a lot about sleepless nights. But anyway when you have decided to get on board for this roller coaster ride there are a few things you’ll need to know before you wave the green flag.
The story goes that, in the good old days of XL, students who used to be up at night working on their project spent their time scanning journals and reports for hours in the library. Wanting direction, they were not afraid to seek it from the professors, even at 2 AM in the night! Throwing pebbles at the windows of Fr. Ozzie, a legendary professor of XLRI, was not as rare as you might think. They used to call him down and discuss their findings until the wee hours of dawn! Such was the bond of professors and students, reminisces Fr. Ozzie, with a sparkle in his eye, and a satisfied sigh.
Wake up, but for that, you would have to sleep. Welcome to the world of sleep-deprived homo sapiens, who run around doing something. If they install a barometer inside a B-School, it might burst, such is the pressure here. All to-do lists and calendars come to life here, the number of groups in WhatsApp increases exponentially, mobile phones keep buzzing as people get constantly bombarded by group messages. Assignments and group projects take time away, classes and tests take the rest away.
Life at a business school is a lot more than just assignments, deadlines and academics - there is so much more going on within the four walls of a management institute.
Business school is a busy and a stressful time. It can be especially draining during the first few weeks and months as we meet new people and perhaps adjust to a new city or a country. We spend months, if not years to get into an MBA programme, however once we are in the programme, the everyday demands take over and we have little time to think about how to get the most out of this curriculum.
Like any MBA aspirant, my journey of MBA entrance preparation started with a sole ambition of getting into an IIM, since IIMs were popular and highly recommended by professors and peers in the corporate world. Although IIMs provide essential learning and opportunities, they are certainly not the only ones imparting quality education in management. When I started my research and identified few best B-Schools based on my CAT percentile, KJ SIMSR was the one that fit the bill for me.
