How I Made It To IIM Kozhikode As An NRI Candidate - Nihar Desai, GMAT 680

Coming from a middle class family and having to choose between sports and education, I put my chances on education. Getting into a high quality university in India is tough, but going abroad and competing with my overachieving compatriots for a place at a European university is a whole different game. I didn't even comprehend the challenge when I headed to the University of Twente in the Netherlands. Getting a European degree became even more difficult with the start of the pandemic. Exams were declared online so I decided to move back in with my parents to save costs. However, the university suddenly changed their exam policies due to a regulatory loophole and I was summoned back at short notice. Unfortunately, I had already lost my accommodation and I couldn't find anything within my family's budget. That meant I had to either find a workable solution quickly, or discontinue my studies. Overcoming my shame, I asked a friend if I could stay with him for a while. A student dorm room is small so my private space was restricted to a small section of the floor. However, that solution allowed me to complete two modules of my studies successfully.

How I Made It To XLRI Jamshedpur's HRM Co'25 With 97.43%ile On XAT 2023 - Ushasi Bandyopadhyay

I had always been inclined to do something that connected my creativity with my profession and fulfilled my heart. Just like many other young adults right out of college, I was also confused about what to do with my life. I am an engineering graduate and I joined the placement offer I had got from my campus like many of my friends and while I worked in tech, I kept on wondering what I can do to have a good career and also fulfill my heart’s will. It was at that time, in 2021, that one of my closest friends appeared for the CAT examination and eventually got into IIM Calcutta after a great deal of toiling and scoring extraordinarily. I was much inspired by her journey and her goals and I learned about the prospects from her in detail. She also had a creative mind and the interesting connection of creativity and analysis in business drove her into pursuing MBA and also drove me into starting my preparations for it.
