The First Post

CAT was tough - it made me have dreams of allocating houses to my friends to solve a particularly tough LR sum. I gave my mocks, never managed more than a 98 percentile, so was pretty ecstatic to have got my CAT calls (funny word that, CAT calls, anyone ever crack jokes on that?)
The preparation for the GD PI was even worse - I'm a guy who enjoys reading magical realism and watching sitcoms, switching to the Economic Times and NDTV Profit was quite a challenge (I particularly remember trying to gather concrete points from Mamata Bannerjee's poorly delivered Railway Budget the day before an important interview).
But all that's over; I'm here, I am now a student of IIM Lucknow, one of the best business schools of the country - I know I was lucky on the day, there were people who worked as hard as I did and people who worked harder who aren't here. So I'm not going to be arrogant, but I will try to make the most of this wonderful opportunity that I have been given.
Now, I've read a few blogs which aimed to describe daily, regular life at IIML - most of them were discontinued after some time, but one I did find to be absolutely complete. I'm gonna try to do something like that, let's see how long I can keep writing.
