Sorry for taking this long (PG must have cursed me hazaar times I know) junta
Its been a month since i posted anything at this forum, and it is no coincidence that
I have been at FMS for exactly one month. Almost all the BSkoolers from PG
started a thread on their BSkool some 20 days back so i feel doubly sorry about taking this
long to get back.
Well lets get started on what we did for last 30 days:

Induction :

We are a batch of 90 people (and there are 9 "foreign" students) as well. On 2nd July we were
made to assemble in a hall which is humid enough to classify as a torture cell, its no comfort that this is the same hall which is used for classroom purposes.
Surprisingly Second year Junta is having classes in cooler confines of an AC hall one floor below us.
Induction went smoothly with every faculty welcoming us and reminding us that we are here to change the face of FMS (they have been waiting for long i guess)
Second years took charge from then for next 3 weeks as our schedules turned into 8 to 10 slot with gyan sessions going late into night.
Things which happened during these weeks were

1) presentations by all Socs
2) Quiz by Mark Soc (which urs truly won by hansom margin)
3) Book Presentation (oops I did it again)
4) Stock Index Simulation (badly beaten, but a friend made a record)
and finally a Party at place which although was not great but we managed to enjoy a lot.

Academics :

Faculty minced no words and started on with their work very quickly, cant really comment on faculty since its still early days. Am actually amazed at kind of experience these guys have with them.

Infrastructure :

Not great but not bad either, comps are available if u jus happen to be there at non rush hour
normal wait time is 10 -15 mins in rush hour and speed is decent.

Hostel :
Its actually quite good contary to my expectations, second years ensure that they get the best rooms upstairs (single occupancy and stuff)

News from Placement :

FMS bagged 3 PPOs from COKE (4 had summers this year) and i think this is best performance as far as Coke in Bskools is concerned this year


Okie its 1 am now, time for me to get going on Economics submission tomorrow.
Hasta La vista

Regards
Amit

Ps I am back.
PPs Sorry again


I dont seem to suffer from insanity, i simply enjoy it.
