ISB Days

This blog is to chronicle the one-year I will spend pursuing my management education at The Indian School of Business, Hyderabad. Hope it brings up great memories when I'm old, dying and viewing this on my laptop at home - in a grand villa!

Adios for now

Finally, the time for the last post...

Came back from a post-orientation trip and hence the late posting.
5-6 days of orientation was the time I had to interact with the next batch. A bright, but feet-on-the-ground batch of 420 odd students. Most of the alums (my batch) at orientation thought the same too.
It was 5-6 days of fun, and a lot of gyaan sessions - to basically get to know the students, as well as orient them towards the "no-time-for-sleep" year ahead. And we thought they will all do just fine. Scaring them about honor code and introducing them to various career paths (and NOT just consulting) were the two prime objectives, which I think were achieved fairly well. We alums also had a good time - keeping to our 3-4 hour sleep schedules and enjoying every bit of the orientation.

It is sad to bid adieu to the student life at ISB... and like I said in a previous post, I will be back as a student sometime in the future....

A lot of my batch is currently waiting for the jobs to begin, since the sudden lack of activity has everyone bored out of their skulls! :)

This blog ends today....with wishing all the very best to the next batch, and looking forward already to Solstice - where most of my batch will be there to relive the fantastic year we had at ISB. One truly memorable year, which I will keep with me till the very end.
