So Be It :)

First the results:
I got through BLK; could not convert AC; ditched the I interview and was not even shortlisted for S.

After a decent CAT score, I was looking forward to converting ABC. I was pretty clear that if I am not able to convert any of them, I would work for 2 years and then reappear. However, after the interviews, I was reasonably sure that BC have slipped out of my hands and my best bet is A. And since I believed that I had done a fair job in A, I was a bit on the hopeful side. So, I was pleasantly surprised when I got through B and a little disappointed when I could not make it to A.

Infi people while congratulating, said - koi na, B bhi badhiya hai. Some have even pointed out that B has less acads load, a better work life balance, more diverse student-profile and the best babes across all the schools and I believe each of them :)

Circumstances have forced me to choose a side where I won't find much takers except for the B junta. I have unknowingly been inducted in the A vs. B war. The best I can get from people is that ABC are on equal footing or that AB are much much above the rest of the lot. No one would put B before A, not even the alphabet :P

Like any die hard Aamir Khan fan would refuse to believe that Shahrukh is better, like any Sony Ericsson user would refuse to believe that Nokia is better, like any BCGian would refuse to acknowledge that McKinsey is better, like any IITD student would refuse to acknowledge that IITB is better, I too, on record state that B hai to behtar hai; that B is the place to be. So, B it is and so be it :)

  7. bhaiya.....:) :) :) :) :) :)
    the journey began with Bansals(B),though things didnt work out properly, it set a trend for B never-the-less..then u got thru IIT-Bombay(B) while persuations were made 4 Delhi( i knw it wasn't that intensified,we all just gave it a thought)..N nw while we were expecting for some unanticipated A/C u landed up in Bangalore(B)...

    Why didn't u appear for BCG(B) :)...

    jo bhi ho, B has done wonders 4 u bhai.. this IIM-B is surely an another milestone 4 many , but 4 u, one more achievement...jeeeeo bhaiji..

    "B has less acads load, a better work life balance" umm...i have heard this line before... lemme think....ummm....yaad aaya...u hav got the same ambience before in bombay as well na..more fun than any other IIT...so,it wont be sth which u are not accustomed 2....

    Now, lemme comment over that babes stuff... (B) again...God...today is big (B)'s day...Do whatever u wanna do with them in a year, otherwise i'll stop ur B Brigade....:) :)

    love u..
    tera (B)bhaai :)
