The 4 Ps Of An MBA Life

McCarthy’s 4Ps of marketing are amongst the first jargons MBA students and aspirants come across. It is a matter of few sessions at your b-school and you don't realise when this jargon goes on to stay in the tip of your tongue every time. While McCarthy’s 4P have helped MBA students since time immemorial, there is another set of 4P which you will need if you are looking forward to make your way through the herculean MBA curriculum.(You will manage to have your part of fun through this anyway!)

A Foolproof Strategy To Crack The CAT

The month of the August has just started and CAT is just 4 months away from now. So it is the time to accelerate your CAT preparation and improve your skills and knowledge for those 3 hours for which you prepared for last 1 or 2 years. In January 2018, when the result of the CAT will be published the thing which will most matter is the performance of those 3 hours, not the effort you gave for the last few years. So failing at those 3 hours means that you have to wait for another 1 year to get your dream.

IIM Ahmedabad Vs IIM Bangalore - A Comparative Guide

Between IIM Bangalore and IIM Ahmedabad, or even IIM Calcutta for that matter, it would be too naive to say that one is better than the other. Considering that placements is the major factor in deciding an Indian b-school for most aspirants, the placement scenario in IIM A and IIM B is pretty similar. However, the culture and the course structure in these two Meccas of Indian education has stark differences. I will point out the differences based on which I made my decision to choose IIM Bangalore over IIM Ahmedabad.

Self Belief - The Key Ingredient To Cracking CAT

It was the afternoon slot. I had reached Pune and the city was under the spell of the afternoon siesta. I was just in time to have lunch and go for the test. It was 4th December – my best friend’s birthday. And (unfortunately) I had my CAT Exam. I had not been quite serious about it. I had secured a PPO at Siemens and was giving CAT just as an experience. All peers in my engineering college had joined a class or two or some of the test series. I had done nothing. Just one day before I had solved a mock test paper on the official CAT website and that was it. I took a printout of the hall ticket, booked a bus ticket for Pune, went to watch “El Clasico” at my friend’s house, came home and slept peacefully.

Before I go on and on about how special and beautiful IIM Indore is (Oh yes, it's gorgeous, to say the least, so much so , if not reminded of the deadlines constantly, I would be on vacation mode 24x7) and how much I cherish each and every moment I get to spend here, I would like you all to have a look at something I wrote exactly a year ago when I was unable to make it to the final list of this very reputed company that had come for placements to my engineering institute:
