What To Do If You Have Low Marks In 10th/12th/Graduation | Tips From An IIM Calcutta Student

What To Do If You Have Low Marks In 10th/12th/Graduation | Tips From An IIM Calcutta Student

B-Schools, at times, expect a student to have a blemishless record. Splendid marks in Classes 10, 12 and graduation are seen as a sine qua non. More than that, consistency is what they are looking for. Which is all very well. Each college is free to choose its own entry guidelines. But where does that leave us? By us, I refer to those lakhs of students who have put in average performances at any of these levels. Not only are you rejected from many colleges, you also face puzzled questions from people. You are from IIT/NIT/SRCC (or others), scored 99.5 + percentile and still did not get a call from the top IIMs?

Exploring Life At An IIM - "Abhi Toh Yeh Shuruaat Hai"

29th June’18, my first day in this jaw-dropping beautiful campus of IIM Indore. I will not be exaggerating when I say this has been a dream and still is.

(Pro tip: A degree in Computer Science and Engineering and working in an IT mammoth is not is everyone’s cup of tea.) Elated, I entered the premises, very confident about my abilities and proud of the fact that I have finally proved myself. I was on cloud nine. But little did I realise that so were 559 other people.

Ambition And Passion: Navigating The B-School Life At TISS Mumbai

Ambition And Passion: Navigating The B-School Life At TISS Mumbai

If ambition and passion were two Venn diagrams, a popular notion is that in a B-School, the two never intersect. So when you convert a call, you hear a myriad of “Congratulations!”, albeit with a clause. This clause hints at you having to put aside your hobbies; your passion, and dedicate all of your existence to your B-School in the most celibate fashion.
