In this last and final episode 20, we meet the interns who describe the internship experience and sum it up with a song. The songs they dedicated to their internship ranged from 'Sandeshe aate hai' to 'All is well'. The songs depicted not only their experience but also the feelings of nostalgia when they were away from home and feelings of hope in the times of ups and down.
In Episode 19, we meet Bipin Bansal Agarwal from IIM Ahmedabad, Jainil Lakhani from IIM Bangalore, Ashmeet Singh from MDI Gurgaon, Anwesha Pal, Manas Madhup and Amit Hooda from IIM Calcutta.
One day while sitting in front of my computer in office, I realized that only 30 days were left for CAT, for which I had been preparing for quite some time. My mock test scores were not something I could boast of. I had been thinking to go for a more serious attempt the next year and was taking CAT 2015 as another mock. With 30 days left, pressure and expectations, both were high, so I was continuously thinking what should I do. I did what any engineer would, I went to a café, had a strong coffee and forgot about it till the evening. Today, as I recall that afternoon at the coffee shop, I list down some important lessons that may come in handy for those who find themselves in a similar situation.
CineMBA is a series where InsideIIM and Professors from Top Business Schools endeavor to make learning fun and interesting instead of dull and boring. In this video, Dr. Seema Khanvilkar from MISB Bocconi presents the lessons in communication skills like never before. She describes these lessons with the help of 2004 movie, Swades.
Abishake Koul graduated from BIT Mesra in 2013 and had a 2 year stint with Maruti Suzuki before joining IIM Lucknow where he is a part of Media & Communication Cell. His hobbies include writing, poetry and running. He conducted a live chat to help aspirants manage time while giving CAT as well as manage time while preparing for CAT.
I consider my country at the top most position when it comes to competition. Straight from old school days to my graduation, there were lots of ups and downs in my life ranging from report card marks to board examination marks. After I entered into the corporate world, the struggles faced by me were totally different. Hardships were counted in terms of appraisal ratings, performance check, attendance hours, attending business calls, etc.
And the D-Day is getting nearer. Only a month to go before all the preparation is put to test. This is the time where many non serious aspirants withdraw from the CAT since they have a lot of backlog remaining in terms of concepts and tests. It is imperative to not lose hope and carry on with renewed hope and vigor. Consider it to be the last 50 meters of a 100 meter race and this is the time to buckle up. Aspirants, if prepare diligently, can increase their percentile by 10-20 points. So the most important thing here is to not lose heart and carry on with a dedicated plan.
