My Dream To Reality | GD-PI-WAT Experience | Muskan Agarwal, IIM Indore'22

"You have to dream before your dreams can come true." - APJ Abdul Kalam This quote perfectly depicts how my dream of pursuing an MBA from one of India's top B-schools became a reality. While pursuing my graduation in B.Com Accounting and Finance, I realized that both leadership and learning are required to be successful, and by pursuing MBA, I can get a mixture of both. I knew pursuing MBA straight after graduation is a debatable topic, but everything has both pros and cons. So, I started my preparation for turning my dream into reality. I scored 97.17% in CAT. I reached one step closer to my dream when I received the shortlist from IIM Indore. I didn’t want to settle for less, and I gave my IIM Indore’s GD-PI-WAT process keeping that in mind. Fortunately, my dream turned into reality the day I received a “Congratulations!” message from IIM Indore. I wanted to share my GD-PI-WAT experience with you so that you can picture of what all things you might have to face and can give your best to turn your dream into reality.
