IIM L-oving it!!!

It took me a long time to write my post.. maybe the fact that I will be an IIM student is still in the process of sinking in.. ;)
The results day is one day I’ll never forget…. I got to know that I am waitlisted at IIMC (#9) and I got a reject from IIMA… The tension was mounting as there are cases of people with 6 calls and no converts.. then came the Lucknow result..I GOT SELECTED.. I felt all the tension just drain down.. The whole CAT affair had finally come to an end..
This post is a personal one.. might be boring to read..so don’t stop reading my blog because of this one;)
I think first of all I’ve been very lucky considering when I started my CAT preparation sometime around August 20!!So I have a lot of people to thank for my success and this blog is dedicated to them..
My mother , Muktha and Deepak have helped me so so much.. I cant even describe what all they’ve done for me..Thank you..
(The thanking is done in a random order..not according to priority.. so please no angry phone callsJ )
Thank you,
Chari sir..though you were in Delhi you constantly kept calling and motivating and helping me with my interview preperation.Still remember that when I was in Bangalore you called and dictated an entire Budget related document..Thanks a lot for everything sir..
Shivku sir.. for all the help regarding my interview preperation and most importantly motivation,though I think I disappointed you as you were sure I’d get into IIMA..
Career Launcher staff of Hyderabad.. Vimal sir,Sudeep sir, Dilip sir..for all those hours of group discussion sessions and feedbacks( in so much detail J ) and Srividya madam (still miss your country oven treats).
Aditya (chotu) for checking on me every Monday about my progress in the Mock CATs and no matter how horrible my percentile would be,still be so optimistic that IIMs were started to take me as their studentJ and rewarding me with a party everytime I got above 80 percentile!
Pavan and Vishal.. for all the doubts you’ll cleared regarding CAT exam,all those quant and DI doubts..
Anish, Pratyusha,Vijay, Mukta,Jagan, Lakshman , Narsimha, Tarun, Anurag, Mani and all my CL friends for helping me with my preperation.
Sudheer for helping me chill out before my IIMC interview else I definitely would’ve panicked (though its result for both of us was bad)
Sagar.. for helping me prepare and for the first time making my yahoo chats more meaningful by explaining stuff like erp(don remember it now) whenever I asked you..
Aditya for actually giving me a feeling that IIM interviews will be a cake-walk for me and overall motivating me..
Saanvi…. This little baby has brought so much luck to me.. I’m not the superstitious kind but after she was born in Novemeber first week I started scoring well in my mocks,that’s when I applied to MDI also thinking there is a chance and look now!I’m in Lucknow!

Overall I’m very thankful to God..really feel blessed that I’ve come this far..
Muktha and Deepak told all their friends that I will get IIMA or atleast IIMC..but when the results were out..we all realized that there is such cut-throat competition that they are not feeling bad either.I always wanted to go to Calcutta.. but I’m very very happy with Lucknow,the more I read about the college the more I’m loving it!My mother feels that I might still make it to IIMC but as of now …Lucknow..here I come!
