On one fine day of March’16, I started preparing for CAT but being in a time demanding job, it wasn’t a smooth ride. Then there was the demonetisation process, which came in like a speed breaker for all and slowed down my preparation with only a month remaining for CAT. It was one of the toughest times in the Indian banking history. My job became more demanding, extracting every ounce of energy I had and I hardly had any time to prepare. The only good thing was that I had started my preparation early. It helped me to face the CAT confidently and allowed me to make a decent attempt.
I was very happy with the results and my happiness grew, even more, when I started receiving interview calls from my target IITs and new IIMs. The interviews went extremely well with most questions focused around my work experience. I was impatient while waiting for the final results. The wait was fruitful and I converted in the first list of DoMS IIT Roorkee which is ranked at 8th position in NIRF rankings. As an engineering graduate, being an IITian is the most prestigious tag. IIT-Roorkee has 365 acres of lush green campus with better ROI with respect to many IIMs. Here you get a chance to get dual specialisation. Pedagogy is simply great. Other facilities include a state-of-the-art library and a huge sports complex. It was like a dream come true for me and without any further ado, I accepted the offer, completed my formalities and joined the college in the month of July. It has been a couple of months now and the college amuses me even more than before. There is so much we can learn here with some event or session happening almost every day. I couldn’t have asked for more. Today I am thanking my lucky stars for this great opportunity and I am hoping that I will add another chapter to the “Thomsonian Pride” of IIT-Roorkee.
