Finomenon – The Mecca Of Finance - NMIMS Mumbai

Finomenon, shortly known as “Fino”, is the one and only Finance cell of NMIMS, Mumbai. It is one of the most coveted cells for the students intending to specialize in finance.

Reminiscing Life At Joka

Reminiscing Life At Joka

Six months into Management Institute, I look back and think 2017 has been the best of this decade so far. The massive reason being my successful admission into IIM Calcutta, completing the first 4 months at Joka (our beloved IIM C campus is called ‘Joka’) and bagging an internship at TAS which had been a dream for two years. All these phenomenal changes on paper along with finding a different personality in me have been like nothing before ever in life. It looks so hunky dory on the outside when said but just like a movie production where a bunch of people work so hard to get the actors on screen and make it a success, my story had a lot of characters in it to bring it so far. TL-DR; it’s been this- ‘At Joka, we leave no one behind’ - A line I heard during my city meets with the PGP2s after getting the admission letter. But it’s more than just a line. It’s been the essence of the past 6 months at Joka and almost all of 2017. Allow me to elaborate.

The Day Never Ends At A B-School

The Day Never Ends At A B-School

26th July, 2017. A date I am least likely to ever forget. I have travelled far and wide, met several scores of people in my lifetime, yet I was giddying with excitement about the prospects of a new place, new people and new life. Between sparse google pictures and horror stories painted by seniors, I was at my wits’ end as to what to expect from an institute of such stature. All of it paled in comparison when I stood in front of the gates which read Indian Institute of Management, Kozhikode; fully aware of the year-long hard work, discipline and sacrifice that went in to reach here!

It was late October, the frenzy was the setup and everyone was decked up. Started with bewilderment with a great chunk to turn up and ended on a lovely note with lots of memories and peaceful bang up.

How To Survive In A B-School If You Don't Know The Regional Language - Tips To Fight The Language Barrier

How To Survive In A B-School If You Don't Know The Regional Language - Tips To Fight The Language Barrier

I am a South Indian with very less exposure to Hindi (I was forced to take Hindi as an elective during my 3rd year in Undergraduate (YES! :/) and am still clueless how I ended up with a C (I was expecting an F :P)). So, you can imagine my state when I got an admit into IIM Indore! I had months to pick up on Hindi before stepping into Madhya Pradesh for the first time, but as usual, I was like Blah and spent time catching up with family, and here is why. Almost 2 years now and still I manage to shameless say “ Sir, Hindi nehi maalum.. English se please explain kardeejiye..” (Hey I am proud I have come this far!) Anyway, here is how I am still surviving happily :D The main goal of this article is basic survival tricks, and here is how:

4 Reasons Why The Himalayan Outbound Programme (HOP) At IIM Indore Is Relevant To Its Curriculum

4 Reasons Why The Himalayan Outbound Programme (HOP) At IIM Indore Is Relevant To Its Curriculum

The Himalayan Outbound Programme is a “4 credit course” offered in the 5th Trimester, but I would prefer to call it an educational excursion. So, we pack our backpacks and go trekking for a week in the Himalayas. How many of us would actually go backpacking in the Himalayas after we enter the “corporate world”?! Often, many claim that HOP is just an additional attribute that would attract one towards joining Planet-I. But I beg to differ and here is why…

What Is It Like To Be An Average Student At A Top IIM?

What Is It Like To Be An Average Student At A Top IIM?

With two terms done and dusted, one thing I’ve realised is that I have been average in every sense. Grades being just below the median, not a part of any of the famed clubs, past performance is average when benchmarked against peers and even summer placements indicate the same!
