But here’s what truly separates an MBA at this institute from all others- its location. People tend to think of Shillong as a ‘must-hit’ travel destination on their Seven Sisters’ tour and truth be told I was equal parts excited and apprehensive about moving to the Scotland of the East/ Rock capital of India/ Wettest state in the country. Looking back, I’m truly grateful to have had the opportunity to call this city my home. I believe Shillong gave me and my peers the much-needed space to cherish the day-to-day while we pursued a course that prepared us for the fast-paced corporate chaos that awaits.
Makes me wonder if Guns N’Roses had Shillong in mind when pining for a paradise city where the grass is green and the girls are pretty (+ boys too, we are among the most gender-diverse IIMs after all!)
