The Pursuit of Bus’I'ness

This post had been a work in progress for the last 6 months.It started on the fateful day when CAT results got leaked from a certain insecure source and I thought that I have screwed up one more time. But 10 days later the gloom had turned into happiness when I received 3 IIM calls.
Now came the tougher part, the interview preparations.I was again a bit lax in that and the interviews didn’t go as per my expectations. I mulled over them again and again, thinking whether I could have done better or not. I was always wondering whether will get through or not. The results came out soon and were totally opposite to my expectations, but I was happy to accomplish 33.33% success.
My work was challenging and this lone call presented a dilemma in front of me.It was a tough decision to make and tougher for a confused soul like me.After a lot of soul-searching I decided to join IIM Indore.The responsibility to do fare better is completely in my hands now.
It has been almost 45 days in the campus.The initial days were a mix of shock, surprise, busy schedules and assignments.But now I have adjusted myself to the life here at Planet-I. The hillock resembles a resort in this rainy season. The faculty has some real gems but the differentiating factor is the group of over 900 PGP1s and PGP2s,future managers and enthusiastic participants.They are the residents which make this planet habitable.
This part of my life is called Management-I.
