From A 6-Year Gap To IIM Calcutta | Aman Sharma's Journey Against All Odds

Though this phase of UPSC prep made me a much different person from what I was before. I became a rational being, responded with intellect and reason and became adept at making the right decisions and convalesced. I retreated even stronger than before, made the right mindset and chose to pursue MBA even after getting a lot of remarks like it’s too late, you won’t get into a good college, the average grade in grad, no work-ex, 6 years long gap.

But the moment I made it in IIMC, no one could believe it with that profile. All this was possible because of the hard work, and focus I recently instilled within me, being honest to myself all the time and most importantly never losing hope. If I could make it in this case, so can any of you. Just believe me and in yourself too. Also, it would be an absolute honour for me if this story of mine could inspire others to give their best even in the worst case.
