Myself Being Analysed

The CAT has purred again. With rumours of IIMs contemplating a paper pencil test, the controversies and frustrations of the children have eclipsed the Online CAT's historical debut. Irrespectively, having attempted 48 of the 60 questions (Quants - 14 attempt of 20; Logical Reasoning & Data Interpretation - 15 attempt of 20; Verbal Ability - 19 attempt of 20), its tiring to think of having to give yet another CAT shortly.

The GMAT on the other hand has prowled on me once again. I know I can do better and yet I have scored below my abilities - a 710 (having scored 660 with no preparation the first time). Quant - 50 (92%), Verbal - 35 (73%), Total - 710 (92%) and AWA - 5.5.

Now that the statistics is set, I would like to bring to light the question that I have repeatedly asked myself over the last 2 years is - Why MBA? I am sure my college to be would like to know this and will be asking it to me in the near future.

I wish the answer was a static one. But it is not. The answer has evolved and may continue to do so as I go through the rigors of my attempt to enter the MBA program and may even continue further down the line.

My primary motive to enter the MBA program was and continues to remain "freedom". But what does "freedom" have to do with MBA? And how will an MBA help me achieve this freedom?

Home Coming

Its been a long time since my first and only post. I had even forgotten that I had a blog till today when I accidentally stumbled upon it. I will put forth my views, my understanding, my current status of activities and I hope it will benefit someone in some way, even if that someone is me.

To begin with, I am currently at Larsen & Toubro in Floating Systems Business Unit as a Project Executive. I have re-joined swimming after a long haul of 6 years to gain back my youthful looks which seem to be disappearing quickly with my 120 kg frame which seems unable to carry it.

I plan to be an entrepreneur in life and my aim is to achieve complete unconditional freedom which I believe will lead to Peace, Happiness, Prosperity and all the positive sounding words and beyond words, wherever feasible.

Writing today feels like Home coming after a long time. Hope to blog soon.
