5. After
Joining MBA
Q. After joining the
school, did you ever wish that you should have known certain more things about
the school before you became part of it? What are those?
A. Our seniors were very helpful and they gave us a lot of information on
the college before we joined it. Even relatively unimportant questions were
promptly handled which gave us a very good impression on the college. Everything
from the type of food available to the clothing that would be most suitable was
known before we entered college and this helped us a lot in settling in.
Q. What are the
toughest area to handle in your studies ?
A. Finance subjects are relatively tough because of the amount of quant
involved. Other than that it isn't the course material but the course load that
makes a subject easy or difficult. Some courses have numerous grading components
that keep one busy all the time. Most courses have project submissions as part
of the evaluation.
Q. Is there stress
level during studies?
A. As mentioned above, the courses require a lot of pre-class preparation
and post-class assignments, so at any given time there is always some project,
assignment or test to prepare for or submit. This makes studies quite stressful.
Q. Which one is your
best subject?
A. There are several subjects which are quite interesting. The
operations-based subjects are the ones I enjoy the most.
Q. Who is the best
faculty ?
A. Since I'm biased in favor of Operations, I would say our Operations
Faculty Chair, Mr. Saji Gopinath, is amongst the best here. Apart from him, the
Organisational Behavior and Finance faculty too are excellent.
Q. Are you satisfied?
A. Largely, yes.
Q. Scope of development
in your existing curriculum.
A. None as of now. A wider range of electives perhaps.
Q. Tips for those who
wish to do MBA from your school.
A. Brush-up on your quant skills before your interview as a lot of quant
and statistics related questions may be asked. Once you get here, be prepared to
work harder than you've ever worked before because the schedule is murderous.
But the beautiful campus and the awesome friends you make here will be
compensation enough!
