All the best to all ! 😃
So every one is actually wondered how is a typical day for a IITian specially KGpian is
Here we go !
A day in Life of a Kgpian
*A new day dawns with the chirping of the birds and the loud cry of the alarm, followed
by a flurry of activities, some known and some unknown. KGPians should consider
themselves lucky if they manage to grab a quick bite before huffing and puffing their way
to the classes in their bicycle.
*Classes are enjoyable and thought provoking with case studies, presentations and role
plays. KGPians usually get a cup of coffee from NESCAFE to remain all ears to one
lecture after the other. Just when they think that the class has ended, there is a surprise
quiz waiting for them or sometimes a great guest lecture.
*After the grueling day, the students unwind with a cup of hot chai and fried maggi at
TIKKA. The greenery around is so mesmerizing; that it entices them to take a long
stroll along the lush green paths. They also take the heat off by engaging in a game of
basketball or lawn tennis.
*But KGPians never forget that they have an assignment to submit tomorrow, so
they rush back and start working on it, sometimes alone, sometimes as a group. The
brainstorming is at its best when they are having dinner at VEGGIES.
*Few hours into the assignment, they realize that they have to put up a good fight against
their drooping eyelids which makes them rush to CCD for a steaming mug of coffee.
*Finally KGPians return to their rooms and hit off their bed realizing that their day has
come to an end with just a few hours for their day to begin.
Meet you tomoro with a new past taking you back to the day 1 we visited the campus !

Hi Kumar
This is Life @ MHRM thread and as you said its too early to ask but stillThe admission process has no connection with VGSOM . Itz a different application different GD/PI ... And for your info no IIT offers PGDM they offer you master degrees. All the Best.
P.S: Cat Score is taken for admission process this time.
Now comes the First day In IIT Kharagpur
Entered the campus late night and had a informal meet with all the classmates of the new batch. We are allotted one of the latest halls among the 22 halls of residence in IIT with a dual room share and a attached bathroom resembling the Apartment architecture.The first day started with the introductory seminar for all the PG students in the auditorium by the dean and heads of different departments and we were asked to move to a different auditorium for the registration process which is just 1 km away from the present location. Long lines to stand and hot sun welcomed us to the IIT. After registration which ended in the late afternoon all of us rested our poor souls for a sleep followed by a delicious dinner ( being the first day ) in the night.
P.S:Food is not too good nor too bad all the stay we had till now for the past 2 months . After all 9000 bucks for 6 months .

6.Special Dance performance by the seniors
