That New Girl At An IIM
Getting out of your home and facing the world alone is something that seemed very exciting, the need to be independent is just too strong to hold a girl in her home city. So when she got a chance to do just that, she grabbed it with both her hands. No long would she miss all the fun because she lived far away from home. No longer would she be left out.

Time Scarcity In The Life Of An MBA Student - A Myth
Any MBA aspirant about to join a Business School would hear a common myth, "You won't get time to even sleep at the Business School." Well yes, I can safely call this a myth from my experiences so far. The truth is that if one has their objectives of studying at the b-school clear, one can easily find the luxury of abundant time for everything.

Whispers Inside The Stone Wall Of IIM Bangalore
How will you feel if you get the admission letter from Hogwarts or if you get a chance to visit the lands of Narnia? think about that feeling for a while. Think a little more. Yes, almost there. Exactly! That’s how I felt when I got my offer letter from IIM Bangalore – confused, didn’t know how to react, excited, happy, proud (maybe). The first time I felt like I have actually achieved something huge in my life.

Be Prepared For The MBA Monster
MBA is perhaps one of the most wanted (read: overrated) degrees in India. Lakhs of students appear for dozens of exams and are then selected in hundreds of colleges. This process is a well-oiled machine which has been creating, nurturing and churning out corporate honchos who will conquer the business world. Bold newspaper headlines about placement scenarios, fat paychecks and that distant Sharma ji's son who became an Investment banker, all of these factors are functional in making an aspirant believe in the potency of an MBA.

The 7 Diverse Personalities At A B-School
A factor that all b-schools like to boast of is diversity - diversity of background, experience and gender. But, there’s another diversity that exists - personalities. Although every individual is different, there are 7 kinds of people who are present in every classroom. These peers come with some peculiar characteristics that make it easier to spot them. Love them or hate them, but you can never ignore them.
