First Two Weeks Of The MBA Journey At XIMB

The happiness that you get when you finally get into the top business school after the stressful months of preparation for the most awaited exams of the year, writing applications and essays, just to get into one of the top colleges. So you thought that was it? Wait till you take your first class. That’s when the realisation hits you like a bullet. We hardly plan little further than that. I remember preparing for CAT, one of the tutors told something which I can never forget, "Do not think you are preparing to get into a b-school, CAT tests you how good you would be after going to a b-school, as a future manager".

Campus Radio At IIM Lucknow

Started in 2014 by the batch of 2016 as a promotional event for Manfest-Varchasva (the annual business, cultural and sports festival of IIM Lucknow), Campus Radio managed to create a hefty amount of buzz back then. After a gap of one year, it was revived in 2016 November to again promote the then upcoming edition of Manfest-Varchasva. It then took place in February 2017 again, right before the PGP31 batch graduated from IIM Lucknow, which was in fact pretty close to Valentines’ Day and even prom on campus.

Teaching And Research In B-Schools

Most of the case studies we are given for analysis in b-schools are borrowed from HBR  (Harvard Business Review), the case is well written and the analysis is easily available online, and in some cases, some of these cases are so often repeated that they attain stardom (Pepsi –Cola wars). There is no indigenous element to these cases leaving us crippled during internships which cater to Indian markets.

Pearl City, P&G And 60 Days Of Summers - Annant's Internship Experience

The summer internship is the time when budding managers get the chance to apply the classroom knowledge into the real world and have a sneak peak of the future which lies ahead after MBA. No matter how many quizzes, case studies or projects that we ace, nothing comes close to a live project in a company when it comes to the learning. I was lucky enough to get into the company whose existing supply chain network is already taught as a case study in B-schools.
