Got some software certification exams to take.So its been one helluva of a trip between powerpoint presentations and Browsing websites for info.I must admit,its really tough when it comes to search for specific topics.One site which i got from govar's blog was simply breathtaking .The site was Howstuffworks
Somehow It helped me dust my fundas on antenna and radio theory.
Nikhil,Myself and our battle abt the IIMS
Nikhil has repeatedly asked me why i use the IIMA and not the IIM tag as apart from minor differences there is not much of a diff: between A,B & C . Nikhil ,lemme ask you just one question? In case U had got A & B ,Which one would you take ?The same reason applies here too.Somehow The tag Of IIMA attracts more than the other tags.No offense meant to the other IIMs . It is more of a psychological bias or favoritism and not guided by reason or logic.I would definitely be happy if i manage to break the ice in any of the IIM's .That doesn't mean that i am not working towards my goal.It just means that i am fed up and wanna do an PG next year and any insti from the top 10 would be fine . But,about IIMA...what else can i say apart from the fact that i am in love with it.... .
An excerpt From PG about IIMB ..Courtesy : Kunal
"our batch size is 204 and i guess it will be around that figure for your batch too
u will have 3 sections of around 70 each
PGP office makes sure that each section has an equal mix of iit, engineers,bcom, wk exp, etc.
IIMB has the MAXIMUM extracurrics
i am 100% sure the extracurrics are not the same at other IIMS( from what i came to know after talking to some students during summers)
we have a lot of clubs n stuff which are very active throughout the year
apart from the college fest and vista(business fest), there are management games in various streams, literary contests, social work, company projects not related to curriculum, movie screenings every week, nature club organizing treks,hikes n stuff and lots and lots more which i dont remember now
there is no gals hostel!!!
we have a separate block (A bloc) for gals which is a part of hostel
some gals live there and some in the executive bloc(EB bloc) where they have a floor (but 2nd year gals will be staying there)
its really cool actually, guys can be in gals rooms even at night, for studies of course!
gals being a rare species at iimb enjoy a lot of luxuries though!
the only sad thing about the gals block is that it is right next to L-square where we have all night parties on saturdays
about general facilities:
computer center really rocks!!! and u ppl will spend a lot of time there even if u have comps
library is superb but i visited it only twice in first year.....but the toppers usually hang out there studying for the next test or exam or just for CP(class particiaption)
LAN here is excellent and u can find lotsa soaps and movies on it, then there is spidi- our internal site and bracket which we use for chatting with each other(this is our lifeline)
internet speeds are gr8 except when some bozos are hooked up to P2P pulling down the overall speed
mess is good, but gets boring after some time- everyone here gains weight, even gals!
but the best is the night canteen which runs in the mess from 10:30 to 2:00am where everyone hangs out and gets ammo for a night out
we also have a coffee day for all u coffee freaks
citibank ATM is inside campus and there is a state bank of mysore too
there is a very good underground parking for those who have vehicles
we also have a football field, basketball court, table tennis tables,tennis courts, and a swimming pool under construction
there is a recreation room with a TV
but sometimes we can even relay UEFA cup football matches on the LAN for everyone to watch or watch india vs pakistan cricket on giant size screens using a projector
about kannada: u won't need it coz IIM belongs to central govt so everything is in english or hindi and u'll be going to city only on weekends and that too if u have no assignments or tests the next day
no need for kannada to impress kannadi babes coz once u tell them ure from IIMB THEY will learn to talk to u in hindi/english
about time u guys realized that
u are the most eligible bachelors in town! "
Having read that evry TDH would love to study in IIMB.Having said all these and adding that in IIMA you cannot booze the majority have no hesitation in choosing A over B.There is no plausible reason for this.Its just that our mind blindly accepts that A rocks and so do other IIMs but with lesser intensity .
I bet Nikhil is gonna blast me for having said all this.
