A memorable class room experience in my college?
A memorable class room experience in my classroom was on the very first day of my college. I was wait-listed by FMS and was able to convert just 2 days before the classes began. By the time, I had already taken admission in another premier Business school, from where I packed up everything & rushed as soon as I could. Then one fine day, when I was supposed to be oriented by a different Business School, I landed in the country's capital and the city of dreams Delhi. I somehow managed to get my admission done on time, which by the way is a much more simplified and well-structured process than any other Business School I took admission in and believe me on this because I got admitted in a number of them. After all this, I find some time to check my schedule for the day and find out that I am lined up for a class in Operations management. Now the very reason why I chose to do an MBA was to move out of Manufacturing which is not exactly Operations like most people think, but it's just a part of Operations like I learned in the next 2 hours. I reach the class just on time and am in a complete status of shock, which after a while turns into respect and honour. The professor inside the class, waiting for us was the one who took my interview. Now, how is this a memorable experience? It is one because during my interview all I did was explain to the panel about how engineers don't think before pursuing engineering and how and why operations is something I never want to go back to. Well, here I was in the Red Building of Dreams, for my first class and the same professor was teaching Operations Management who
I was able to convince that operations aren't something which I want to do. What followed changed my perception of how knowledgeable but still ground to earth all our professors at FMS are. He started the class with the same point that I put forward in the interview and we had an extensive discussion about how our education system has led us to choose our lifestreams even before we can choose our clothes or what we eat independently. Finally, he reminded me of my interview and how privileged I was to be at FMS by explaining my point of view and concluding the discussion. That day I realized how much more could I do at this place if I open my eyes and look out at all the possible opportunities. So, this was the class which will always be memorable for me.
Introducing some of my crazy batchmates:
Name- BV Avinash
Our in house free rider
You will find this guy active before 9 am and after 9 pm. Go on and organize a house party or a batch party, this guy is the first one you would want to call. His favourite choice of drink is definitely not water. But apart of all this, you realize that any problem related to MS Office and you have a lifesaver at home. An MBA without a proficiency in MS Excel and MS PowerPoint is not an MBA after all.
So, let's give it up for the countless long nights with loud music and numerous assignments.
Name: Utsav Poddar
He is the MBA before an MBA program. The guy who drops down to the crux of the matter, shifting the focus from all the other useless things to the thing that matters the most. He can always be found dozing off in the first bench during lectures but still comes up with notes to die for.
Name : Ashish Goswami
The happy go lucky guy who initially is hesitant to even talk to you but once this guy starts it's not only difficult but impossible to stop him. Passionate about marketing but still cares about all that he couldn’t understand in an Organisation Behaviour’s class. He is the guy to go to for late night laughter sessions to gear you up for the next days battle.
Which ABG company which you would like to join?
I would like to join Aditya Birla Cement because the aim of any normal person is to build to house and have his or her own place. The only thing which can rip them off this is a poor quality material. I would rather help them fulfill their dreams by joining ABG Cements than just wait and watch. It is something that captures my mind and attracts my imagination.
