Getting into the think of studying now. Strange - this is the first day I have picked up my books, and already into the "thick" of it! Well, academics here are like that. It's overload from Day One! I am surprised the alums were able to participate in clubs, parties and still do well in their acads! Hope it holds true for this batch too.The leadership development sessions are going on well, and it is good to know your inherent strengths and areas of improvement. But, concentrating on strengths is more important than spending time on weaknesses. After all, you can always hire a person who has strengths in your own areas of weaknesses!!The cost of the course is "increasing" with newer elements coming up regularly. It is a bit worrying...the drops are addding up to the expanding ocean of costs...
The alums have been very helpful with their guidance. This school will have a strong network a few years later with many alums in top jobs. Had a discussion with the admissions-director for next year's admissions strategy. Interesting to note that other colleges are coming up with one-year courses. Establishes ISB as a pioneer! However, the issue of miniscule number of international students needs to be resolved...and soon.It's back to the books now... Looking forward to the study-term to begin...
