IIM K Kampus
I have completed one year in IIM K. It has been great learning experience so far. It’s just not academics but overall exposure which was entirely new for me. Due to recession, sometimes I used to think whether I have made right choice to leave a reputed government job. But when I look back I feel that I have made very much correct decision. Prior to IIM life I had monotonous job, daily going to office, doing same job for more than 4 years and came back to room in the evening. It’s very difficult to conclude what I have achieved in last one year in B-School. One thing which I found unique in B-school especially in IIMs that your colleagues in institute are not from common set of people, they have different age group, different education background and work experience. Compare to my engineering college everything I find here is extraordinary whether classroom or hostels, facilities and infrastructure. I feel very proud studying here in such a healthy environment after doing my schooling in typical government schools. Teaching methodologies are very much in contrast with engg college. Class participation gives us so much power to share our ideas with professors which were missing in my graduate college. I feel that my communication skills have improved slightly and become more confident in speaking to others. Hope this learning curve will steep rise further. My performance in academics is below my expectations, it’s improving but not same as during engineering days. I am trying hard and not disappointed.
Cooperation among students are amazing, those who know a subject better never hesitate to share their knowledge with others. Internet especially IP messenger is life line at K. Festivals are being celebrated with full josh and vigour here. My days at K have made me very flexible in terms of sleeping; I can manage with 3 hour sleep and also can go on for more than 10 hour. I have started running first time in my life (coz gained some weight). Studying in library was new for me as we didn’t go to our engg library except for book collection. Parties at K are best across the campuses.
Still lot to do, would like to participate and win some competition. Hopefully I will utilize my remaining 283 days in my college.
