IIM Shillong - A Stimulating Journey

IIM Shillong - A Stimulating Journey

Shillong as its named as the ‘Scotland of the East’ is a unique place in all respects. Right from the culture, people’s belief and economy; everything will surprise you in its own way and you come here for higher studies: such combination is hard to find and will definitely give you a perspective towards life, career and society. Natural beauty is not only attractive but also reminds people that nothing is predictable and no success can be achieved in isolation. Weather changes so quick, sky appears to be up with a different colour every day and greenery makes you feel rejuvenated. All this may sound fancy to some, but that’s what I have experiences since the day I have entered my ‘campus in clouds’ IIM Shillong. Coming from a city like Delhi where pace of life is so fast and time to cherish the crispness of nature doesn’t even appear on any agenda list of the people living there. Delhi despite being a capital is growing towards more mechanization and development of technology due to which sometimes the society forgets to reciprocate to the nature.

New Experiences At IIM Raipur

New Experiences At IIM Raipur

Coming from an engineering college, which was a small village in itself, and having expectations of a lavish campus with all facilities, first sight of IIM Raipur have been a sheer disappointment. In a single building we have the academic block and the student hostels. And to add to that we share our temporary campus with IIT and Government Engineering College. Thinking of the hardships ahead and all dreams shattered, I entered IIM Raipur. But wait! It’s just been a day and I am already having fun and roaming around with 20 others. And all the credit goes to our small campus which gives us very little space but amazing people to be with.

IIM Raipur - An Amazing Experience

IIM Raipur - An Amazing Experience

So, it all started with a dream; the dream to conquer one of India's toughest competitive exam, the 'Common Aptitude Test', more popularly known as the "CAT". Well, belling this big fat 'CAT' was no mean feat! With months of honing my problem-solving abilities and scores of the online test, I managed to get a decent 97%ile. I was ecstatic! In a few days, my dream was turning into reality. I started getting calls from India's most prestigious B-schools like IIM's & MDI. But the work was only half done now. What was about to come was even more challenging; 'the interviews'. But with patience and perseverance, I somehow left a mark on my Interviewers and converted some of India's top B-schools like IIM Ranchi, IIM Kashipur, MDI Gurgaon and so on. But the institute which I chose was Indian Institute of Management, Raipur. I can't put into words how amazing this place is not just in terms of learning but overall development as well!

IIM Raipur is unique for its campus. Presently located in the Government Engineering College, Chhattisgarh, the institute has the advantage of all the facilities available in a single building so that everyone including the peers and the institute staff are easily approachable. The other thing to boast of IIM Raipur is the upcoming new campus in Naya Raipur built in a huge area of 200 acres planned with a blend of modernity and cultural heritage of Chhattisgarh.

My memorable classroom experience happened in the Business Communications class. This was the very first communications class in IIM Raipur. The professor made us into groups and asked us to give a sales pitch on any fictional product. My group mates were myself, Madan, Kaushal, Prateep, Isha, and Kranthi.

IIM Raipur - The Fastest Growing IIM In India

After the completion of CAT exam and WAT/PI process involving 9 IIM Campuses and getting selected in 5 out of the 9, it was time to choose the campus. I would like to spend my 2 years and pursue PGPM. I ended up going with IIM Raipur after going through many articles and pages available on the internet. It was a prestigious opportunity to join any of the IIMs that I was selected for but I had to make sure that I choose the one that best suits my interest and future.

IIM Raipur - The Antilla Of 400+ Brilliant Minds

It was on June 7, 2018, when I had just landed in Raipur, my expectations rose high about the campus where I had to Put up for the next two important years of my life. It is a dream for every MBA aspirant(Or at least me!!) to get into one of the IIM’s which are now the Institute of National Importance as mentioned in the new “IIM Bill” that was passed in the parliament a year ago. It was a dream came true when I received a mail from the admission office of IIM Raipur that I was offered an admission. I had my registration on June 8, 2018.
