There has been a history of highly inflated and misrepresented placement figures by many private non-IIM B-schools. Though, in case of an IIM, you can try filing RTI to get true information.

CAT vs GMAT- Dilemma of every MBA aspirant in India
GMAT is considered easier to crack than CAT based on very low conversion ratio in CAT. However, GMAT is much more expensive than CAT, both in terms of application as well as college fees.
Beyond the Illusion of Real Togetherness
I cannot “new-pinch” my friends when they wear a new dress, I cannot dance with them on latest dance numbers, I cannot hug them when I feel lonely, I cannot hold their hands when I feel afraid. Whoever I am connected to using this technology, I am still sitting alone in a 10×10 room holding a smartphone in my hands. This is not togetherness. Rather, this is an illusion of togetherness which is taking away the real togetherness.
More Speed, More Happiness and Less Carbon Footprint: Its 4G, its Future
We are looking forward to a better connected world, with lesser internet carbon footprint, less frustration, more happiness and higher technological growth. May be internet of things will get the required boost and the imagined science-fiction future will be true where every living and non-living thing has an IP address. 4G may not be a reason for this, but it can act as a catalyst.
Togetherness without being together
We have fun loving people all around us, but very few of them love people more than fun, and that makes all the difference.
The change that fueled life
I was little bit skeptical about going 2500 kms away from my home. “Is it worth it?” I asked myself. And guess what, yes, that change in my life was for good. I will cherish those memories for life.
When a stranger made me smile
At a certain point of time, we start believing that there is nothing good left in this world. But, there are those little moments in life which make us realize that we are wrong, that there are still so many good people in this world and it brings smile to our face, a relief in our heart.

CAT (Common Admission Test) is one of the toughest exam to crack. It is the gateway to getting into prestigious IIMs and other top B-schools of India. A lot of people ask me how to prepare for CAT. I am no expert in this but I can share a few tips which I feel helped me in cracking this exam.
How to develop the habit of reading
Reading improves our comprehension capability as well knowledge. But what if someone doesn’t read at all? What if mere thought of reading a book makes you yawn? Is there any way to develop this habit, easily? Here is my experience.
The Hideous Crime
A hideous crime was committed and a detective was set to find the guilty. However, with more clues, the case became more complicated. He was no more sure whether he was actually aware of the crime. Did he find it right?
The sacrifice of Ravana..
Children were dancing with joy, some men utilizing the crowd to molest some girls, pickpockets enjoying their peak season where they find maximum crowd and pick more pockets, fireworks makers utilizing child labor to make fireworks to sell them at higher margins, murderers and criminals worshiping their weapons as if they have done a good thing by killing people using them etc.
All I want to say is Good-Bye
I was standing at the gate, still savoring her last glimpse as she looked at me. Atleast I wanted a “good bye”. A very long one, almost never ending. But she quietly, coldly turned back and closed the door.
And I was still standing there, without any thought, almost numb. I never imagined that it all would end this way.
And I said, Good-Bye Infy!!
During my Infy journey, I found some really talented and cheerful people whose lives are reflections of real joy and learning. Some of them involved in so many social activities, some of them organizing some entertainment events every now and then, a group of people going for adventures on a monthly basis and even a few people innovating new things using latest technologies without even being asked for. These are the people who made my stay in Infy worth remembering.
Promise to Stop Violence Against Women
Using an iron rod to pull out one’s intestine, or inserting a candle in the genitals of a 5 year old is not molestation. It is brutality at its worst. And scarily, these people are between us.
Intermediate, Stream & Location: Luck by Chance
As a result of the learning, I developed a small and simple desktop app called “Process Killer” which somehow went viral in the entire training center. It was finally declared illegal when a few trainees used it for cheating in the exams (it was not meant to do that, some people are really smart). It was unexpected, though it as a success of my learning.
Two years in Infosys…
Life is all about a change. It is something we love and hate at the same time. It is something we desire and withdraw from, simultaneously. Just like the last day of college, I was sure I was going to miss my friends, and I wished I could live that moment forever, but at the same time I was quite excited to start my professional life and wanted the Infosys joining day to come as soon as possible.

Born again with love..
When she was in school, she couldn’t imagine love more than a boyfriend riding on a bike with his girlfriend, going out to discs, eating chocolates, enjoying parties and stealing kisses under the moon. For her, love was nothing more than these. But when he came in her life, she felt like she was born again. Born with so much love.
Do I qualify to be called a biker?
When I think of a biker, image of a man, tattooed body, wearing sleeveless leather jacket, riding on a huge cruiser bike- Harley Davidson with an expression of extreme pride and cool attitude. In the Indian scenario, the bike is replaced by a Royal Enfield and the biking gear, by a big mustache and literally any kind of clothes. After all, riding a bullet (Royal Enfield) is a fashion in itself in India.
The Rap Game: Just About Anything
I was going through my old blog posts when I found a novice, but interesting piece of write-up. Few years ago, one of my friends was playing a rap game of rhyming poems with me, which could be just about anything. Here is what I wrote.
