Vision For Life: Term1 ends!!!
http://visionforlife.blogspot.com/2006/06/term1-ends.html
Thursday, June 08, 2006. I am now 12.5% MBA:-) Term 1 is over and it's all fun till monday, that's when term2 starts. Yesterday I collected course packs for term2 and gosh.They are huge. So I guess term2 is going to be much worse than term1. I have strategized for term2 and decided to do pre-reads for all the classes. This should prevent any last minute catch ups. Let's see how much I can adher to this. BTW ISB would no longer accept GRE scores as admission criterion. Posted by Alok Goel at 9:11 PM.

http://visionforlife.blogspot.com/2006/04/finally-at-isb.html
Monday, April 17, 2006. Haaaaaaa. So finally I am at ISB. This is my first blog from ISB. I joined ISB on 15th April but could not post anything due to problems in B'lore my laptop was stuck up. I just cann't explain the feeling of being at ISB. Everything here is amazing. The infrastructure, support staff, library, facilities etc etc.Above all the alumni is just great. People are so helpful and willing to mingle. Alums are organizing a gyan session later in the night. Going out to attend that.

Sunday, May 14, 2006. Inside the pressure cooker! First sorry for not posting for so long. Life is suddenly changed. It has never been that hectic in life. We have term1 going on right now and there are 4 subjects. 4 Statistical methods for making decisions. I must say one thing! MBA is really terning out to be a real AHA! Professor Bob Stine (who teaches statistics) is amazing. By tomorrow morning my group needs to submit an assignment in accounts and economics and then mid terms in next weekend.

Vision For Life: Half time of term1!!!
http://visionforlife.blogspot.com/2006/05/half-time-of-term1.html
Tuesday, May 16, 2006. Half time of term1! It has been over a month here but it looks like I came here just couple of days back. Half of term 1 is ended and 3 professors (Economics (Amit), Statistics (Bob stine), Marketing(Asim Ansari) are done with their part of the course. Our section hosted a fairwell for them and in reflection I see that there is so much more in life to learn:-). This weekend we have two mid terms and interestingly these are open notes exams. Exams with your notes. Haaa Haaa.

Vision For Life: End of orientation
http://visionforlife.blogspot.com/2006/04/end-of-orientation.html
Saturday, April 22, 2006. Orientation of class of 2007 ended yesterday. Numerous events we held during the week and points were given to each section. Already a sense of bonding is developing between people here. My section (D) stood second in the final points tally. Kudos to section D people who bounced back from 5th position (out of 6). My next post would be on LDP. This is a comprehensive leadership development program at ISB. Posted by Alok Goel at 11:41 PM. Gyan gyan and more gyan. Last day at Adobe.

Vision For Life: Paradox of open book exam!!!
http://visionforlife.blogspot.com/2006/05/paradox-of-open-book-exam.html
Friday, May 19, 2006. Paradox of open book exam! Had a long tough day. It has been just 3 weeks that classes started and today I had two exams in same day. Ironically the most dreaded statistics exam was ok but the apparantly easy economics one took the breath away! Sometimes what you think is easy turns out to be difficult.
