A Journey Of Lifetime - IIM Calcutta PGPEX-VLM

A Journey Of Lifetime - IIM Calcutta PGPEX-VLM

It seems like it was only yesterday when I was contemplating with the idea of which b-school should I apply for, how much GMAT score is good enough and how to prepare SOPs &  get LOR... and now here I am, spent four months at IIM Calcutta and coping with the rigour of the PGPEX-VLM. The quest to achieve more always pushes one out of their comfort zone and encourages to explore the unexplored frontier of life. I was going through similar emotions. Despite living a well-settled life, holding a managerial position with one of the globally reputed Steel company with 8+ years of work experience was not enough to quench my thirst to achieve more in life. The feeling to add new values was getting stronger. At the workplace, managerial decisions were testing not only my technical skills but also management acumen. Amid all the professional & personal commitments, I started searching for the course which will be the blend of Management & Engineering i.e. a course which helps me in developing management skills along with adding value to my past experiences.

Tackling The General Knowledge Section In Competitive Exams

Tackling The General Knowledge Section In Competitive Exams

With the other management entrance exams like SNAP, CMAT, XAT around the corner, it is time for aspirants to gear up and start preparing. Unlike CAT, exams like CMAT, MAT, XAT have separate General Awareness sections. Though aspirants find GK questions very intimidating, experts say it is one of the easiest sections to tackle. If the candidate is well prepared, GK questions can help him enhance his overall accuracy. There is either a right or a wrong answer. There is absolutely no room for confusion. As GK-based questions do not involve any calculation or analysis, it the least time-consuming section and it gives the opportunity to answer more questions in lesser time.

It's OK To Be Different - A Take On Divergent Thinking

I was asked by my teacher to choose an animal, as part of the class. The Creature that came to my mind was a Unicorn. Yes, it is a fictional creature with a magical horn and the white pristine feeling of purity and grace associated to it. Little did I know the animal that I was asked to think about actually reflected our character as per the teacher and it struck me on a personal note. That is why, I would advise that let no Muggles get you down, It's ok to be Different.
