"The following post comes with an inherently flawed assumption - that I have received my PGDBM degree (which by the way, is still subjected to the vagaries of nature and the powers at my institute). It is an attempt to demystify some of the myths surrounding MBA education and a guideline to survive a two year journey during which one not only undergoes an emotional turmoil, financial backlash but also a personal renunciation of joys like watching cricket 24/7." - Issac M John

hi ,
i think that was a wondeful insight into the world of MBA, that sums up the tricks to succeed in MBA education.

But u can get this and much more from "mediocre but arrogant" but abhijit bhaduri.

Still i don't think issac has plagiarised.

This seems very straight fwd and well compiled


Nothing is, but what is not.......

So the game is not over with the admission
It's the beginning .. the real battle lies ahead. I thought I had enough with the GDs...But I guess they are gonna get worse, except that they have a new name now : CP


Cheers,

Many assume that it would be smooth sailing, once you get into your dream school. And considering the extreme pain that most schools subject their candidates to, during the application process, it isn't difficult to take and deep breath at the end of it all and fool the brain into thinking the ordeal is over.

Of course, once the first few weeks/months are through, the journey becomes more predictable and less torturous.
