My Life At IIM Nagpur: Two Tradeoffs I Made

My Life At IIM Nagpur: Two Tradeoffs I Made

                       ‘The bird who dares to fall is the bird who learns to fly.’ Since the last year, I was trying to find some time out when I could take a deep breath and try to decide at least one learning for life from my 1st year of MBA at IIM Nagpur. MBA life is a nonstop race, and one has to collect as many pebbles he/she can from the vast seashore of knowledge in a limited time period of 2 years. If someone asks me, what is that one thing I learned in the last year, without a doubt, I would say it’s that ‘There is a tradeoff in everything.’ Be it in your learnings about several functions of a business or your life and career decisions. I would like to discuss two tradeoffs I had to make in the last year. I hope this can help some, especially the MBA aspirants who are still thinking if IIM Nagpur is worth it.

My Journey From 85%ile To 99.92%ile In VA-RC | Siddharth Matta, CAT 99.95 %iler

I appeared for CAT 2017 when I was in my final year of graduation at IIT. I had prepared diligently for the whole year. I had taken numerous mock tests, analysed them and felt prepared when the D-Day came. When I came out of the test centre, I told my father I would be getting a percentile which will have more than 3 9s in it.
