Hi Palash, I am pleased and surprised at the same time to find a doctor on IIM Ranchi campus as a student. I am sure that you have already been asked several times about what made you choose an MBA after MBBS. However, many of the readers of InsideIIM would like to know more about your journey. So, let's begin our informal and candid interview.
I feel like I’m living in two different sides of the same coin called life. Since I joined my MBA college two months ago, I have been engaged in answering a particular question every day, “Why MBA?”. Probably, I will be answering this question for the rest of my life.
As I sit down, in my room, and begin to pen down my journey to a Business school, I look back and marvel at how life, through its winding roads, has gone by. Coming from a science background, I bounced to the dynamic world of fashion at the National Institute of Fashion Technology and to start yet another chapter in my life, Xavier Institute of Management.
IIT Delhi – this name in itself is a dream for many. And today I am writing about this dream becoming a reality for me.
During my preparation days, one of the things that I used to run away from was answering the question ‘Why MBA?’. During my last year of under graduation, I was extremely confused about the next step should be. Even though architecture was extremely interesting, the opportunities it offered did not align with my vision.
It’s that time of the year again when we start getting the interview calls from our dream B-schools. I was in the same shoes last year and had final converts from some good colleges like MDI Gurgaon, IIM Trichy/Rohtak/Udaipur and DMS, IIT Delhi. Choosing the best among them based on my expectations and credentials was a very difficult choice. Before going further, let me begin by describing my background before joining MBA.
