IMI has been a melting pot of a myriad experiences of a variety of hues, ranging from excitement and apprehention to exuberance and expectations.

At first glance IMI seemed to me the very place I have ever wanted to be in and it has lived upto my expectations. the most impressive feature of this institute is its faculty- the USP of imi. added to this is regular visits from eminent luminaries of corporate globe. The classes and gues lectures are immensely and go a long way in shaping ones life.

the peer group at IMI is another feather in its cap. Students from diverse backgrounds and different cultures, but all with a common goal- to make a mark in the world of business. the rigourous schedule and structured course material turn naive wannabe MBAs into hardcore professionals.

The infrastructure at IMI is way ahead of its counterparts. we have a well stocked library with more than 15k books and journals. In additon there are numerous online databases for further reading. the computer centre houses terminals with the latest technologies and readily available internet access.

IMi has been a wonderful experience for me a typical eye-opener where i am trying to keep pace with the diligence the course demands of me. I am certain IMI shall prove to be my conduit to success and i fervently look forward to shaping my future within the halls of this institute.

hey all u IMIites...please take care of the aryan.... a friend of mine..pls feed him well

change is the only thing permanent in life and with every twist and turn there come certain hiccups that you probably never bargained for.

leaving college was one such roadblock. and roadblock i call it becoz even tho being a grad. sounds cool it really leaves u with tooo many options n lil surety as to which one to choose
it was with such ambiguity thati enrtered the hallowed portals of IMI. i wasnt sure whether i made theright choice n i also moved into the hostel( a first 4 me ) so that was a lil intimidating at first
the first day in any place i guess, is all about testing the waters. getting yourfeet wet n trying out whether the temp suits you or not ..
its a lil confusing but at the same time insightful n somehow goin with ur instincts wen it comes to ppl almost always works.
i made a few freinds day one but found most of them put in theother sections

but a week of chckin the temp i knew fairly well where i stood
i had my share of disillusionment, had a few myths broken n realised that my reservations aside i now belonged to IMI
that is wen the fun starts
now my days are littered with gettin up 15 min. b4 class, tryin to catch up in mgmt acct, sleepin thru OB n havin fun in business comm
AND wen we r done wid such formalities it comes to bonding sessions, booze parties n hangin out in the amphi ( thts amphitheatre for the unintiated), brainstormin for next day's ppt till 5 in the mornin n crackin it at 10.

i have made freinds here tht come from all parts of the country n teach me somethin new every day
life at IMI is still about testin the waters but now the temperature suits me just fine

Hey guys...

I can see that you are having a blast @ IMI. I wanna quote 4 similarities that have been quoted here, which are the same with us here @ MDI...

(1) Getting up 15 minutes before class, and missing your breakfast
(2) Sleeping in OB
(3) Enjoying Business Communication
(4) Trying to figure out Accounting (every new entry seems like a rule )

Way to go guys...

And btw, hows you Sagar ? I know Shweta too from IMI... Mera "Hi" pass on karna... and yeah Sagar, if possible mail me yours and Shwets'a mobile nos... will be great to stay in touch

Till then,

lectures start at 10:30 today and we have Managerial Eco(ME) and Mathematics & Statistics for Management (MSM). ME is easily my fav subject and the prof. is really good. But MSM is scary and i have this wierd feeling that he's gonna give us a surprise test today. Oh..its almost 10:00, lemme go and brush up on MSM.
