MAKING OF 2/3RD OF AN MBA

Voila....today i am 2/3rd an MBA or to be stated in better terms,
i am 4/6th an MBA.....
Well MBA does this to everyone...everyone doing MBA starts to put
same thing in as many ratios as possible...haahhaaa

Hota Hai

So todays Dish is MBA....

Ingredients:
- 6 months of preparation for the entrance....
- Determination
- Luck
- Cool
- Concentration
- Attitude
- Confidence

Process:
Well this is the interesting part....
Mix 6 months of preparation with determination, concentration, attitude and cool and stir it hard.
It is not necessary that they actually mix well and none of them is identifiable in the mixture....
If it were smooth, then where will the ingredient "Luck" figure in.
After this mixture is prepared, you need to do a quality check on it, to test whether it meets minimum standards or not. Here is where the "Luck" figures in. A lot of "Luck" is required to pass this phase
and a person's cool is also tested here.

If you are not lucky, keep in mind MBA is not the end of the world,
from the Horse's mouth "MBA's SUCK"

But if you are lucky,
no need to jump around, you were just luckier than others....
clearing test is not enough....

So, next process is Group Discussion and Interview....
My personal belief here is to keep oneself updated on general awareness thats all...
Also confidence is needed.....
So here mix confidence in the mixture....

Here now again comes luck factor when final admission results are given out....
If u succeed good enough,
if u don't u can have another shot, and this is not the end....

Now comes life at B-School,
Ok the work load sucks big time.....
but its just a small part of life...
What u really are in a B-School is nothing more that our favourite term "VALUE ADDITION"

What makes one survive the B-School life is Attitude, Cool, Confidence, Determination,
and most important of all, "THE FRIEND CIRCLE".

Studying is secondary in a B-School,
though there might be studious people around you.....
but then someone has to get high grades also na....

Assignments are there, classes are there (sleep in class also exists),
but then early morning (1 AM) tennis games or TT games are real fun....

Making best use of LAN, Age of Empires, NFS and Unreal Tournament will rule....

MBA is best done in hostels, this is because in hostels only is the real MBA learnin done.....
Here is where one is interacting with max people......here is where everyone tends to
develop on interpersonal skills and here is where learning in groups is facilitated....

Exams come and go, after first term exam all exams will look like a nice phase,
they will look like breaks from normal schedule and most of us watch loads of
movies during this period.....

Its the attitude, determination and cool (and not to forget Luck - especially during exams) to
become a MBA.....

well i still have to tread on the 1/3rd of the path left for me to cover......2 sems, a placement season, Xpressions, Maxinations, more of AOE games, 4 term exams (movie mania session),
wow..loads to look forward to.....and maybe a trip to north-east after 6th term end exams....
and den coming back to XIM-B for convocation.....

Looking forward to all this....
Making of an MBA surely is interesting........
Its the lifestyle which makes MBA out of a person, not the studies he does.....

dats all rest u all put in comments.......

THE RISE OF THE DRAGON

When I had taken a decision that XIM-B was a place to be in, it was not merely a decision based on all admits I had, it was a decision in which I had mapped my personal attributes with the instis (one can develop most at an institute with whom they match perfectly). The decision was taken very early, while instis were being shortlisted. The Xavier tag...itself is a big influencer....I atleast once inmy life wanted to get this association....

Then biggest of all, I while shortlisting, personally had faith that XIM-B is a institute which has been highly under-rated (just because its in Bhubaneswar - people thought companies would not come here)....
But, then it had built a different kind of reputation, rapidly rising in ranks and still not being rated highly by people (because they have not heard about it - lesser mortals)...I loved it....it was a big attraction....

When dragon is sleeping calmly, no one seems to notice it, but when it slowly wakes up and starts making moves (aggressive ones), everyone seems to take note....some on a good note and others just stare in disbelief (How can XIMB be there?)....

This is what I would say our institute has done. It has woken up.....

Since we entered, we decided to take on the aggressive stance.

Kudos to both Placement Committee and Media Committee for getting XIM-B the dragon to wake up (yes this is just wakening up).....

With Business World top 10 ranking, people though its just a mistake by one mag, then comes AIMA-Business Standard survey, which states that XIM-B enters the Super-league category, now this cannot be a mistake from two surveys.....

These rankings are not just one off, there is a cumulative set of activities over the years which have led us here....

Well evolution is a way of life, so I would say we are still evoluting while others need to learn to cope with changes.....

Even our immediate seniors if they today visit campus, they will see change.....

I also don't believe in the rankings, but then what has to be seen in them are the patterns and similarities....

Hope to see XIM-B grow much more bigger in future....

From far away, it may seem, how active can life be in XIM-B....

well u have to be here to Xperience it.....
