Well , I went there to get some tips from the guys , and believe me the session was very motivating . There was a guy who had 10 years of experience in an IT giant , out of which for 6 yrs he was in US , last year he gave CAT and now joining IIM-I , I asked him personally as of why he went for MBA , he said " look man getting into IIM was my dream , and if you really have the passion for it , nothing can't stop you from achieving your goals.Neither the personal problem as I have a family too , nor the work pressure as I am above a Project Manager and have to work for more than 14 hours . When I can do , then definitely you can ."

HATS OFF To this guy............

One more guy ( really like HULK ) was there who converted 5 out of BLACKI , can you believe this guy was already doing his MBA from SIBM ,completed 1 year, which he is going to leave now
He also talked all about his passion .

Many of the questions from audience who r working was that they are not getting time for preparation as they have 12- 14 hrs working .
And the only solution that these guys told for this is "PASSION".

Just think of guys , coming 6 months of preparation can change your coming 40 -50 years of life .

Can't you invest 6 months for a better 50 years of your life .

Be self motivated.......


BYE



what an motivational post , really i am feeling boost in my blood, thanx bro for this post .

Norman lewis is must.. just finish it!!! also for work ex.. A word a day i found very useful u get to learn a new word evry day..it did help.also good to flaunt ur vocab skills
check here A.Word.A.Day Home Page : Word of the day, vocabulary, wordpower, words, language, quote, quotes, quotation, quotations, english, dictionary, lexicon, logophile, wordsmith, vocabulaire, vocabulario

also I would suggest people to write a blog to memorize words if they have any problem mugging them directly..

keeping a diary always helps..
