Why I Don’t Believe In Class Participation

As far as my knowledge goes, every management institute has a component of class participation in the marking scheme of subjects. Professors enjoy having this component as part of their marking agenda, apparently because it helps them gauge how much knowledge a student has absorbed in the classroom. In my opinion, the component of class participation does more damage than it actually aids the process of learning.

If Data Is The New Oil, I'd Love To Get My Hands Dirty!

“The digital universe will grow from 3.2 zettabytes to 40 zettabytes in six years. Every day, we create 2.5 quintillion bytes of data — so much that 90% of the data in the world today has been created in the last two years alone.”

An Opportunity To Rediscover Myself In The Summer Internship

25th May 2018 it was. I and some of my crazier friends were waiting for our turns to hand over our business assets (A laptop with charger, headphone, one bulky yet my favourite laptop bag and a cable lock) at the IT office, Deloitte E-block, Hyderabad. For the first time all of us had similar expressions on our faces, this was the last day of an eight week long summer internship which I assumed to go long on the first day but seemed too short when it was going to be over. We bid good bye to each other over a Punjabi lunch in the city of chutneys. When I look back in the memory mirror, the ambitious b-school summer internship seems no less than a sweet, entertaining and inspiring movie where you still want to hold your seat even if the movie is over.
