Acknowledgments

Getting into IIM Indore has been one of the most significant achievements in my life till date. So acknowledgments to all those who have helped me in my journey are due.

My heart-felt gratitude to

My parents, for playing the support-cum-critic role perfectly, and constantly pushing me to do better. Without my mom’s nagging nature and my dad’s questions on my studies, I would not have been able to do what I did!!

Snigdha, for being the stabilising factor in everything, and also for making me feel the need of an MBA in the first place- For “Why MBA” question, one of my prospective answers was “To be able to buy a platinum necklace for my girlfriend.”  So Snigdha, you know what my first salary’s gift is gonna be ( well, if not the first, atleast the tenth!! )

My friends circle- Jami, Srikanth, Avinash and Satprem. I studied with Jami and Srikanth, so learnt a lot from them, and our healthy competition was mutually beneficial for all of us!! Avinash, for helping me when I used to get stressed out. Satprem, for those idealistic philosophical discussions, from life to love to CAT to GRE!!

My college- College of Engineering and Technology, Bhubaneswar, for providing an ideal carefree environment, with very less academic rigour, that ensured that I could prepare for CAT and still sleep in the afternoon and night peacefully!!

Career Launcher, for providing the coaching material. Mr. Satyanarayan R, an IIMB alumnus started this organisation, and I would say you have achieved a lot of what you set out to do. In an environment cluttered with MBA coaching centers, CL has carved out a nice niche for itself in a short time, and their thought is visible everywhere.

TIME, for providing the AIMCAT test series. Wonderful variety of questions, loved the mix. And their DI sets were amazing!!

IMS, I joined them only for their GD/PI program, but was impressed by the dynamics of this organisation, and understood why they are so popular.

My teachers – Biswaroop Sir at CL Bhubaneswar, Alok Sir at TIME Bhubaneswar, Sajal Sir and Abhisekh Sir at the TIME workshop, and Kumar Sir, Manjit Sir and KB Dash Sir at IMS Bhubaneswar.

Some of my college seniors for their support and guidance- Amrita Di, Pritam Bhaiya, Shobhan Bhaiya, and Salvwi Di. I’ll always stay in touch with all of you!!

Lastly, they played the most important role of guiding me during the season of GDs and interviews, answered a thousand of my queries, helped me tone my CV and statement of purpose, and they still help me out even when they don’t really need to. They are my mentors – Pranav Awasthi from IIM Kozhikode, Rajarshi Mukherjee from IIM Bangalore, and Rucha Naik from IIM Calcutta.

Thanks a lot to all the above mentioned, and also to many others whose names I have not mentioned. I ll stay forever indebted..
