Hostely plays very important role in MBA college... isnt it ???

I wanna know how do GLIMites manage the post college interaction with the other students or students from study group or say event group ?

Could some of the seniors enlighten on this please.

Hi all,

As the final shrtlist of students have come out, i am sure the entire lot would be interested in having a glimpse of Life at great lakes and the good news is thats exactly the reason y this thread was started by our seniors.

The better part is that i again have a good news to share with u on this occasion.Keeping up with his promise of providing world class faculty at Great Lakes.....Uncle Bala after T.N Seshan has recently announced the joining of Prof Nirmal Gupta as a permanent faculty at Great Lakes!!!!!

Prof Gupta is considered as GOD in marketing circles and our batch had the distinctive advantage of being taught by him twice this year!

For 3 consecutive years he was named as the best prof in ISB. He has also been profiled in the 18th edition of “Marquis Who’s Who in the World 2001.” and in the 1st edition of “2000 Outstanding Intellectuals of the 21st Century,” published by the International Biographical Centre, Cambridge (England).

Infact v guys are kinda jealous that the next batch will have the his mentorship since beginning of the year unlike us!!!

Anyways welcome to this fast growing and exciting journey of Great Lakes...

Thanks so much unkindmonk, u surely are very kind
My laptop is 1.73GHz and 1Gig RAM. The college is offering 2GHz and 2Gigs RAM. This is the only major difference I notice. Other than this there differences like screen size, webcam etc. which I think are pretty trivial and I am sure the mgmt would accept my poor notebook.

Also would you be kind enough to tell me about the accommodation scene around the insti. How easy is it to acquire a decent flat in the area? I am planning to come a day or two before the course starts to look for flats. What about those scary tales of water scarcity in chennai?

Thanks again,
