Srry to barge in!!
Waise bhaiyon, the situation here was no different! we hardly slept during the induction period!!
Nice to know tht you ppl had fun at the disc ,We have a partyyyy tomo!

All said and done, FMS rocks!!

Well, most of us (including ThE bmr) were wrong to assume a chillaxed relaxed life here at FMS. The first 15 days were extremely hectic. But alls well that ends well. Yesterday, we had a blast at POISON, a disc in Gurgaon. It was to make us realize that FMS is indeed a cool, one of its kind place to be in. And the best thing is, such parties are a part of the FMS culture, and will happen quite frequently.
Feels good to be here.

And so it begins, the real journey at FMS starts from today

Last two days have had a perfect masala combo for a blockbuster movie.

It started tomorrow afternoon with some comedy and romance (the dance and songs et al) went on to have some adrenaline rushing action and stunts (the treasure hunt) to surprize twist (which can't be disclosed) which needed us to submit a sectoral analysis by 5 in the morning and that when most of us reached our places after 9 in the night.

Then started a mad rush for completion of assignments, the next day was too eventful after a conventional filler by two faculties (one of whom had a very very engaging argument with me and others on ethics) and after that all hell broke lose.

Seniors broke the news that 4 of us had copied their presentations from internet and henceforth are banned from taking part in any of the placement activities and similar action(s) could be taken against 10 people (including yours truly) who have been late (even if by 1 min) in submitting the assignment, and just when every-one thought the movie would have a art-movie like negative ending we got to know the real twist (the actual story behind it is even more intersting but then what happens in FMS stays in FMS ) that this was the end of our induction program, it was first celebrated by seniors with a cake and later on by 11 of us by till 12:30 (from 10) and what followed was a discussion high on emotions and low on inhibtions (urs trully doesn't drink but doesn't mind being a part of the group).


Definitely the best of the feelings, I've had in quite a few months.

@ ALL at south campus: Azadi Mubarak .....

Ok, so now that I've too many pending deadlines to meet I've decided not to sleep at all today(or more honestly, to sleep only in the class) I've some time to update how z life at FMS going

I've hoped and thought that Life at FMS would be chilled and not hectic as other B Schools, guess I was wrong


A lot of write ups and ppts and events and assignments and then they are followed with even more of them

I was supposedly a good speaker and my friends said I posses decent presentation skills, well I guess they were wrong

Good thing is, I've successfully saved my crown of topping from the last in all assignments.

the better thing is, we are provided with unlimited Pizzas, Cold-drinks when-ever it gets too late in the night.

The best thing has a tie betwee our batch, and the DU canteen

Batch: On one hand we have a lot many fergee engineers like me

On, the other hand we have people from SRCC, St. Stephens who already seem to be MBAs; people who have done grad in psychology people who have left IIM L(and other colleges) and people who have left jobs that were paying 21 Lakhs (In Aus + free acco) and 14 lakhs (In India by Microsoft).....

Do I feel the inferiority complex? heck, I feel the superiority ..... No matter how talented the batch, its the fergee engineers like us who are in biggest numbers and who have the most fun

P.S. -> Whole MBA(MS) batch at FMS has just 2 wishes...

1.) the induction period to finsih
2.) to get the FMS tee, and then we are planning to sit all day in the DU canteen and spread gyan

I am also joining MBA(MS)...can u send me the assignments and forum detaols for mba(ms)..I m totally unaware of discussions going around

So the roller coaster journey of life at FMS starts even before joining FMS

6 pre-induction assignments given to us have warned farzee engineers like me that MBA will be a little different course

add to that, we are supposed to read a few books like the McKinsey way, India unbound etc ....

same here mate:)

Again this thread goes dead..
Looks like the new FMS(MS)ites (like me ) have to revive this thread again:)

Looking forward to be there ASAP..

SERVESKRITI '09 is here. 19th and 20th December!

An initiative of the students of MBA-Management of Services programme, the event boasts of an enriching convention of speakers from different walks of the industry, as well as a galore of exciting management competitions where you can pit your brains against some of the best in the country!

This years edition of Serveskriti revolves around the theme Services: Transcending Horizons. The current era places consumer-oriented focus on a higher mantle of importance to the companies. This presents an opportunity to the companies to not only satisfy customer needs, but to go beyond and reach the next horizon of customer delight, the stage where companies try to outwit each other not in the race to fulfil the expectations of the customer, but to exceed them by a fair margin.

The industry leaders will be debating on two primary facets of the theme
1. Co-creation - A collaborative future
2. Experience Innovation

We would like to invite you to be a part of this endeavour where industry stalwarts will put to rest the burning issues simmering in our minds.

Website ---> FMS SERVESKRITI - The Annual Convention 2009-10

The second semester has begun. Life is supposed to be a little easier now. First semester was hectic. Quite unlike what people had told me initially.

I'll let you know on to a secret. I still don't know much about Accounts. I kinda despise the subject. I don't really know why, but I do.

It is the forms and exams time of the year again. I feel weird when I come across aspirants who are there on campus to submit the forms and all. Time passes so quickly. I was doing the same a year back, but it feels like it's only been days.

I like the people in my batch. Initially, I was apprehensive. I thought everyone would be too serious about life and everything. But they are a lot of fun to be with. I was also amazed at the creativity that flowed out during various assignments, presentations and games. These are really creative people.

Hostel life is so much fun. I'm not in the hostel, though. Delhi people don't get the hostels. I sometimes go and stay as a guest when times are hectic and all. The setting is really serene.

You know, I don't really know why I'm writing this at 1 am in the night. Just felt like it. We have "Business Communication" tomorrow. First class. Sounds interesting.

I'll keep you updated.

Plenty of other things have been taking place at the campus:

1) The Smash Season of Badminton Championship
2) The Intra-FMS MBA (MS) Cricket Tournament.

3) Several Guest Lectures from Executives, Vice-Presidents and highly placed officials of companies like Bausch and Lomb, Xerox, Dominos, The Economist among others, dealing with areas as diverse from B2B Marketing, Pricing Strategy and HR Policies to Green Marketing, 6-Sigma, Economic Recovery etc.

4) Probably the most important event in this semester has been the Summer Placements of the batch of 2009-11. The entire batch has been placed for the summers in their fields of choice, with a plethora of companies to choose from viz. Deutsche Bank, HSBC, Coke, Kellogg, Reckitt Benckiser, TTL, MTV, Hewitt India, Airtel and many many more.

So, lots of happenings at FMS, the campus has been buzzing with activity. The next in line is the Consulting Conclave to be held in the last week of October, followed of course by the end-semester exams in November.

Rock On!!
Sushant Bahadur

As Diwali approaches and our life at FMS completes about three and a half months, it is probably time to reflect about a few of the things that have happened till date.

Annual Conclaves:
Markibrand '09 : The Annual Marketing conclave was a fitting start to the season of conclaves. Spanning two sessions across the day on 5th September, the event was themed on "R.I.P. Brand Loyalty" and called in speakers from prominent industries like Nike, Kellogg, Tag Heur, O&M;, Intel, ITC, among others

CAT online, CAT computer based test, CAT 2010 coaching, CAT 2010 preparation, CAT online, CAT computer based test, CAT 2010 coaching, CAT 2010 preparation
FMS Delhi Markibrand '09 | R.I.P : Brand Loyalty: In Search of Resurrection.
Finanza '09 : What followed next was the Finance Conclave, dealing with the way forward in leaving the financial crisis and approaching economic recovery, aided excellently by the words of knowledge and wisdom by experts from Standard Chartered, Rothschild, CRISIL Ratings, IDBI and Financial Express.

FMS MBA (MS) to organize FINANZA 09
B-school roundup: IIM C signs an MOU with Melbourne University, IIM I hosts senior exec from American consulate, Supply Chain Mgmt seminar at LIBA, ISB establishes collaboratory with IBM PaGaLGuY.com
ConneXion '09: The two conclaves in core functional domains of management were followed by an event full of excitement and bubbling enthusiasm. ConneXion '09, an effort by the Entrepreneurship Cell at FMS MBA (MS) involved startup providing excellent Live Projects for students to work upon and learn from.

FMS MBA (MS) holds ConneXion 09; 50 students get projects
Fair chance: Start-up tips for FMS students - Delhi - City - The Times of India
Harvest '09 : The HR Conclave at FMS talked about the role taken by HR during times of recession, discussing the policies and strategic decisions to be taken during a severe financial crisis.

Hi,

Although one of the FMSites helped you here, please understand that this forum is not focussed on the admission process for FMS Programs. The purpose here is to deliver a snapshot from time-to-time of all the activities taking place at FMS.

Great to see this thread coming back. Also this is my first post
After induction life became a bit hectic. Sbahadur ji you forgot to mention the Hillary Clinton visit to DU where FMS junta got the chance to attend the session
Smash, being organized by sparks commity, is starting today. All Pulela gopichandz and saina Nehwals will get the chance to show their racket prowess from today. We also have a GL tomorow on 'Neurobics'. so a lot of masti with some studies.


FMS MBA(MS) rocks

Ok, I come here on the thread and find that it is woefully outdated .. Let me do the needful and put up some tidbits of whatever has been happening at FMS for the last one and a half months..

The session started on 1st July, with a common inauguration of both the MBA and MBA(MS) courses. The classes started on 2nd July, and with that started the Induction period for us.

The Induction period, conducted by the seniors for us, was a hectic 15-day process, which involved loads of on-the-spot presentations, case studies, KT sessions by seniors, write-ups, designing ads for Radio, TV and Print media and fun activities like the entrepreneurship event (an event, where the task was to maximize your capital, starting with Rs 50 in hand) etc. It was a busy time, but at the end of it all, it seems that each and every activity here would help us in the long run.

The classes taken by the faculty were, as expected pretty good (With renowned faculty like Dr. J.K.Mitra, Dr.H.V. Verma, Dr.R.K.Gaiha and many others teaching us, the classes were bound to be good )

Post the 15-day induction, we have been participating in loads of other extra-curricular activities as well, be it projects, tasks set to us by seniors, General elections for various committees and much more.

More updates will be forthcoming very soon about the rocking life at FMS MBA(MS). So you know what to do: Watch This Space!!

Cheers!

The campus has seen the succesful conducting of conclaves on marketing and Financial consulting by the the marketing, finance and systems and consulting society. I am up next as the HR society president..but i guess things should go fine. Come Harvest 09 the HR conclave at FMS MBA(MS) things would be tight. but isn't that what life is all about, walking a tight rope...precisely! that was the theme our marketing conclave Markibrand on how brand managers have to walk the high wire act in bending a brand to suit local tastes.
Normally in an MBA the second year is supposed to be easier but things seem to be happening the other way around here at FMS!!! ahh the "different" factor ;)

The juniors are working hard on their summers preparation as they should and we hope that more milestones in the form of Serveskriti, Harvest and other events will follow. Lead on lamp! Lead on!:cheers:

First day after the second sem exams. only thing on my mind is the last night party. I am trying to recollect how was life after 23:00 yesterday. This 8 Blesses of Vijay Mallya made me remember my RM exam ( Random Walk with Drift). A party after sleepless nights for exams is the best idea, and thanks sparks for arranging the party. Every one seems to get ready for their internship, some moved out, some waiting to move out of the hostel.

I am still trying hard what i spoke last nit and how did i manage to come back to hostel from the venue.

Zucans disease struck me late.. While some people start preparation at the 11th hour ..i started at the 11th hour and 59th minute. And its fun!!!! I realise that the essence of management lies in handling uncertainity. And not few are the terrors that the uncertainity of handling an exam at the last minute bring.
I have also observed an interesting Inverse relationship in my preparation .The lesser the preparation the easier the exam seems to become!!!
sometimes i fear my life will while away amidst the uncertainty of predicting the next uncertainity but then i realise that even THAT contains uncertainty and i relax..leave my room and take a fag..
i think two years might just pass ...amidst the cigarette smoke, the exams, the presentations, deadlines and occasional cricket game ..but then ......who can say for sure????
after all management is best when you are handling uncertainty:happy:

The time is 3.55 am, world is fast asleep, not a single sound outside. I am in my hostel room working on my lappie. Day after tomorrow, exams are starting.
As usual, i am in a very bad shape :sad:. And to top it, i have to submit a Business Communication report tomorrow :huh:.

I calculate the number of hours i will have to study continuously, jus to scrape through. The numbers portend an evil omen but my soul says dat i shud dig in my heels in da sand and try once more. My roomie who is at his LG's place for celebrating Holi pings me and says that he is thinkin of postin here. I think " This is exam time & look what this guy is upto ". After a few minutes, i am also penning down my sob story.:)

And i get back to studies with hopes of completing the report before i crash.

Moral of the story: Study regularly or be prepared to do All Nighters like i am doing tonite.

Yeh moral to maine last sem mein hi seekh liya tha:biggrin:
Par sudhrega kaun???

Just goin to start FM and am for sure a : at it!!

Update on Finanza 2008, the Financial Services Summit

Finesse, the Finance Society organized its much anticipated annual event on 19th January and it lived upto its billing. The event saw the likes of Mr. Shardul Shroff, managing partner Amarchand Mangaldas and one of the leading corporate lawyers of the country grace the occasion. Sen. VP Kotak Mahindra Capital Co., MD Rabo Bank, Country Head Yes Bank, Director E&Y; were some of the other big names on board.

The event saw huge participation from across B-Schools in Delhi. The two sessions of the summit focussed on the Future of Indian Banking and the changing dynamics of Strategic Alliances in the country.

We now look forward to the most vibrant and joyful event of the calendar- FANTASIA - 2008, the cultural festival on 29th February organised by our very own Spaxx Society!! :D:D

Hi,
This is Vikram Poddar from the "pioneer" batch of MBA(MS) 2006. What can I say, life at MBA MS

1) Fights
2) Friendships
3) Tharki Verma
4) Any questions seth
5) Fadu Mamu
6) CRAP (crap)
7) Satya
TN bhavan
9) Dhaulakuan
10) South Campus
11) 2 crazy years........................... ( many more to follow)

So life continues at South Campus...IT is much more placid with some of the work related to Serveskriti at an ebb before the final push begins in full swing in a couple of days. Everyone else seems quite busy including Riddhi and Maulin with Serveskriti and the laterals coming up soon but I am taking a break after Impetus our HR conclave and a well deserved one at that :-). We await Doug Baillie himself come serveskriti.

Expect further updates soon once Serveskrit actualises as THE EVENT OF THE YEAR
