My Journey To IIM Rohtak And Expectations From It - Amit Pandey

My Journey To IIM Rohtak And Expectations From It - Amit Pandey

Growing up in a lower middle class family, I always had a desire, instead of an aim. My desires were influenced by what I saw in the movies and society. I dreamed of being a rich man as shown in those Yashraj movies. Hidden beneath these desires was an innate aspiration to comprehend the workings of real world around me. So, I chose to graduate as an engineer but soon realized that knowing how a BMW worked was not as important as knowing why a BMW was such a prized possession. It seemed only logical to understand the bigger blocks after knowing all about the shapes­ and sizes of what comprised them. But collecting a gamut of information without an aim that combed through it was like searching for a needle in a haystack and that too with no information about that needle.

My Summer Internship In At Tolaram Group, Lagos - Nidhi From IIM Ranchi

My Summer Internship In At Tolaram Group, Lagos - Nidhi From IIM Ranchi

Most of us would have seen Lagos in movies, but trust me Lagos is much more different and interesting than how it is picturized in movies and what the world usually thinks about the place. I can say that surely because I got to spend my summer this year there and that ended up being the most memorable experience of my life. This was my first trip out of India. During this internship I got to learn a lot and I got to meet some of the happiest people in the world. The locals are really warm and friendly. It may be too hard to believe because whenever we hear Nigeria, we can only think about Boko Haram. But Lagos, where I spent my summer, is beautiful. No doubt that the place is quite poor but there are two kinds of people: extremely rich and extremely poor. But even the people who are not that rich are always happy and cheerful all the time. They enjoy their life with whatever money they have.

"The Start-up Way" : Summer Internship Experience At Bookeventz - Sidharth from IIM Raipur

Forget internship, there was a time I had given up on doing MBA and was quite settled in my family business. As they say destiny has many surprises and so was one for me when I landed at IIM Raipur. With a year of experience of business, I was quite muddled with regard to the company to settle for internship. Today I feel proud that I made a good choice. I spent my 2 months in a startup, Bookeventz.com as a Business Development intern working in Delhi/NCR.

My Journey To IIM Ranchi - Mahadeep Ray's Story

After two non-serious attempts, this was my 1st serious attempt. I had the basics in place. So I started practicing the problems directly. I was always fond of Quant but used to struggle with LR/DI. CAT had a change in its structure and now there were 3 sections instead of 2. With the change in structure I had to give more importance to LR/DI as it became a separate section and a minimum of 80 percentile in each section is required for IIM calls.
