IIT-kgp @ IMI My next second stage was at IMI New Delhi of IIT kharagpur on 15 th Feb. I shared my timings with Mayank. We both had it on 8.30 in the morning. We went to Delhi together from Nagpur and stayed there at Mayank’s uncle’s place in Noida. We reached there at around 7.15 and the reporting time was 8.30. So we roamed in the vicinity and saw IIFT, IIPM and IMM. IMI was also good, although it did not have a campus as big as IMT Nagpur but its interiors were equally beautiful if not less. The process started with the students of IIT kgp showing us presentation of VGSOM followed by allocation of batches. The entire process of GD/PI was coordinated by the first year students. They were very helpful and carried out everything smoothly. Then we had a GD in the form of a Case study. It was about Harley Davidson and how their sales were declining and the steps they took and the problems that arouse because of that. We were to give a monologue for a minute or so and the
My First Second-Stage So here I am telling you all “ma first second-stage”. Well the first GD/PI call I attended was of IMT Gaziabad/Nagpur at IMT Nagpur on 13 th Feb. It was memorable not in terms of my performance there (actually it was the worse I ever performed) but that it was my first. ( First some boring crap for my friends who wanted to hear all this. People interested in GD/interview can skip this paragraph ) we boarded a Volvo bus from Jabalpur at 3pm for Nagpur . The journey was a hell. The bus was moving in vibration mode (with high amplitude) and some times I felt like a pea in a chutney jar of a mixer. Somehow we reached Nagpur . Searched a sasta lodge and rented it (kind of good, got its card).And went for a walk and ate at “gujrati lodge” (ok-ok food). Then went to see for local transport to IMT since it is around 35-40 kms away from Nagpur city. Next day woke up at around 8 got ready, the interview was from 1pm and went to that same place hired a van for 1100

Back Again

Hurray... after long time I am getting time to keyboard down something. Last semester for me had been a full of events which took a lot of my time and could not be online often (added to that was the absence of broadband connection during this period). But now no exams to appear and no more book-mugging (at least for some time).I'll summarize my last year's escapades after my last blog. My last semester (7 th ) was a critical (and the busiest) one I had to prepare for CAT as well as work for a gold medal. On top of that I had joined JAVA classes. So I ended up jumping form one place to other whole day.24 x 7 x 4 x 6. My university gave me a bolt by flunking me in one subject (and to tell you more, it was the subject I used to help my friends out with and they used to call me master of it). I had never expected such a thing for the first time in my life and that too in 6 th sem. And then there was a mother and all her siblings, I mean CAT, IIFT, JMET, SNAP and XAT. All sche
