End Of An Era - Or Beginning Of A New One - The Pre-Internship Scenes

I walk through the empty halls of the college, the abandoned basketball court, the silent mess and the lonely common room. It’s the end of the first year and everyone has left for their internship, a handful of us are left as we are the last ones to leave, the hostel feels haunted and there is a deathly silence, we watched our friends leaving, packing their bags, bidding goodbyes, excited, sad and curious all at once.

Things No One Tells You About IIM Udaipur

It was night and people were still at work to get things ready for Convocation dinner night. A proud moment for the institute and students – to host the many parents from different parts of the country coming with one universal sentiment – seeing their wards graduate from one of the best management institutes in the country. For them, it was but a Business school, a very good one. For us, it was an adventure. I started walking towards the night canteen.

The True Failures Of A B-School Student

The society we live in distinguishes between failure and success, mostly in black and white. Taking an example from cricket, if you make it to the national team, you are a success. Your pictures would be marketed, promoted, decorated, garlanded, worshipped and sometimes, even burnt. However, if you rigour for almost 20 years in the domestic circuit, without a call from the national selectors, you are most likely to die in obscurity.
