Have you ever been rejected in love? Have you ever been rejected by firm after an interview? There is an underlying feeling common to both situations – a feeling of not being good enough or maybe that feeling of anger towards the object of your affections / the firm….After all, nobody likes rejections.
November 5, 2012 - Yes, that was a day to cherish! That was when I wrote my CAT after three months of rigorous practice amid my work schedule as a IT Business Analyst for a credit rating agency. I cherish this effort because there were a lot of sacrifices and a determined schedule with a work-life balance that went into it considering the fact that I prepared for five hours everyday on a weekday and even more on weekends.

So, my Cousin, now an IBS alumni got placed with a very decent package of 6 lacs per annum. Now, I know the sum is not insanely high but considering he was a fresher and has been an average student all his life, I consider this no less than a miracle. What about all these new crop of private institutes, like Amity IBS etc, who charge a hefty fees, but a good placement is guaranteed and even at par with the best colleges if you perform well in your college and pass out with high CGPA?
Wade (1994) considered the “ideal class discussion” as one in which all students are participating, learning, and listening to each other’s ideas, comments, and questions.
ISB is a place where you get to learn everyday not just inside the classroom but also outside. I learn something new every day - sometimes it’s about how a doctor handled multiple emergencies in a single night, how a soldier had to go to war at a days notice, an investment banker who made it big and a big shot who gave up a glorious job to teach and learn art. I am an electrical engineer and was always sure that I would never be interested in finance and investments. ISB changed the way I thought. I have had the privilege of being taught by excellent faculty from Ivy League B-schools all over the world. I turned from someone who hated finance and then in term 4 absolutely fell in love it.
