Term6

Term 6 has started last week. This time i have taken 2 finance subjects and 2 IT subjects. I couldn't get Mergers and acquisitions course for this term:-(. Just to compensate this i have taken another fin course "Investing in Private equity" which also has some part of mergers and acquisitions related stuff. And the other subject which i didn't get is "Financial statement analysis" for which i dont have any regret. Somehow I feel accounting is boring. I really didn't like the subject that much after the sampling. Looks there are lot of assignments this time compared to last term. But no mid terms and just one end term.

Hmm Just 2 terms ahead of D-week(placement week). Lot to be done for interview preparation. we formed into focus groups to discuss about the core term concepts, industry analysis, current affairs etc stuff. But prep hasn't been that concrete as of now. We had Mckinsey, A T kearney conducting some work shops regarding case interviews for last two days. The sessions were quite insightful.

Its the fifth anniversary celebration for ISB. Today we had ILS (ISB Leadership summit), the flagship event of the ISB, for which lot of eminent speakers were invited from different industries and had a great discussion about the main theme- The New India-Changing paradigms in Business Leadership. It was indeed a great show. Tomorrow we have some more events lined up from 3Pm to 10Pm.

Our Honourable Prime minister Dr. Manmohan singh is going to visit ISB for the inaugural ceremony of the Global logistics summit on 5th of this month. I am sure there will be lot of security in ISB and even we will be restricted to move around:-(. More on this later. ciao
