Hi folks,,
welcome to our page.... And dont forget to thank me to start the page....
This is my 2nd year at IBA and i enjoy every moment of it...
The Scenery , Greenery( Natural / Unnatural!!) here is amazing... Whole campus looks like Resort!!! and its so envigorating....ya so condusive to study.... but eventually helps love birds to blossom....
Like any other B-School , Asssignments and Presentations keeps us awake till dawn but Mess food sucks and its very painful burning mid night oil and costly too... The Grocery shop run by someone called Ranga is a classic example of Monopoly....ANd he virtually loots us...
And whats IBA without Chandrakant????? Ask any Guy here for more details....
By the way every so called expert and Gyani here fears giving presentations in his class... bcoz he screws everyone royally with equal panacea....
But true he taught whole 1 year course in just 3/4 of his class...thats amazing ..isn't it...
And watch this space for more on IBA...
Disclaimer: This thread is quite old. Opinion & views posted in this thread have actually lost their relevance. Lot of things have changed by now. So please contact those who are part of IBA now for more valid update. I am actually out of IBA for two years now. More over New thread is due and let this thread die its own death.
Hi Folks,,PG Bug is yet to attack Ibaians...as evident from the poor response to this thread...
Come on Guys ..Buck up!!! Pen ur thoughts....
Noise and Chaos has increased in CAmpus since past couple of days as 06-08 hav joined ( Our Juniors, we feel like holding absolute authority to torment them!!)...
Many guys think of screwing them with interaction session ( Windows version of Ragging...), Giving them Assignments in order to break their Attitude ( we r afraid of their credentials and experience i guess!!)..
Most of Guys out here in 05-07 hav started giving Gyan as to how hectic and tough their schedule is and how relatively easy 06-08 is having. It seems they r having very easy and we had very tough time. these guys are chipping in with their all type of suggetion as to what to read and what not to read, which specialisation to take and which not to take...( They forget they are on the line as far as their own CGPA is concerned)
And yes Club activities hav picked up... Frantic promotions r on campus... 06-08 are obviously confused... Marketing came like Big Bang and hopefully will go like same... HR was no less and had a huge impact... IT was big daddy in promising a ocean..lets c.. Cosmos was very innovative in its promotions and applied a Strategy of Expert Opinion in its campaign which i feel is more effective...Neways they hav a good track record of delivering what they promise... well other clubs i am clue less about.. But one thing for sure these clubs hav become more of Strength show and Power play ( Who said Power play is only seen in Politics ). Lot of Politics and lobbying takes place to be in that hallowed list of GC members of a club.. and so on so forth.....
Ok now about that Interaction session, some guys feel it is sheer waste of time and rather do something else... good for them..some simply ( Like me) enjoy bcoz i like knowing diff people, their hobbies , their strentghs , their weakness. And believe me We r very poor in Self-Knowledge... when asked to introduce to a group we flounder, cant even list out our USP's...
From Juniors's perspective these type of session has some positives:
- Learn to face Hostile crowd
- Ability to speak
- Ability to understand oneself better
- Ability to sell oneself to others
- Presence of mind
More over MBA interaction session is very different from that of Engg ragging. we r matured!!! Here we want to test ur grey cells... No nacch Gana!! but show us how u r different from the crowd and we respect u.... Hav a Core competency and we r done.. So spirit of interaction has to be understood and taken in same way. And by the same coin u also come to know about us which in turn might help u in future...
I therefore reccomend from next time lets make the interaction session more official by having a stress Interview for all freshers by seniors duly approved by Admin. let the introdution be done by seniors for 2 days. A host of activities can be planned for freshers. Stress Interview, Public Speaking session and Presentation session. Lets make it more formal event. We can plan it though as it is simply an idea at this stage. It is at any time better than so called Nacch Gana stuff....
Ok, enough hav to crack a SMBP Case study now....
its good to see the seniors getting into the act and starting a thread in PG. I think it'll be really good if we get to face Mr.Chandrakant in the 1st year itself, rather than 2nd year as that will help us prepare better for 2nd year. the campus is really good, the mess food- the less said the better. Dont worry Sir, as far as the 06-08 batch is there, this thread will be up and kicking. We have a lot of pgs in our batch.
Hey Biswa,
U have done a grt job making IBA known to others... Its good that u have taken this initiative... Hats off to u

Hi Susobhan,,,
Welcome to our page...
Nice to see u pen some thoughts....i request u to spread the message in ur batch through Word of mouth, Orkut, Mails whatever... to join this forum and start writing in this thread...
Its unofficial but its a huge podium to make some noise about IBA as a brand among all the elites... It works three ways...
- MBA Aspirants know about IBA and its culture by reading the thread.
- MBA students know about IBA.
- Alumni know about IBA ( Thats spreads some message in corporates).
And watch this space to know more about IBA and some tricks of trade!!!!
finally, talk to Admin about Chandrakant..he is a real jewel...
TAke care,
Biswa Prakash,
IBA
Hi folks,,,
Had a Party last nite... booze and lot of scene... taps bday bash....
No class scheduled so was sleeping till 9 but empty stomach and Sunday Breakfast prevailed and had to get up then. Sat to crack SMBP case but got a bomb when the Prof summoned to rush to class as scheduled class was preponed to 10.30AM.
Had plenty of boring lectures added to the hangover was a lacklusture day. And evening and night is packed with case study prep. Tomoro 7 AM two case study ppt to make And added bomb is Prof has added new dimension to the case study analysis...
engaged in solving it..Took a break to walk down the lane of PG.
thats it,
Biswa Prakash,

Hi Folks,,
Roy said it very rite...I dont understand this funda of class at 7 am. i can understand class at 2 AM..i am OK with that.
IBA for 2 yr mortals has more of Visiting Profs.
lets say for IT Spec we have 9 Paper in 4th Trim and 1 out of that is Permanent Prof(PP). Rest are all Visiting Prof(VP). we can understand the time constraints of VP so our schedule can be made to fit his schedule. But why on earth PP takes class at unearthly hour (Even by Graduation college standards!!) is a serious matter. when he is in campus through out the day , why are we forced to attend his lecture at this unconvenient time..
But Folks thats IBA....
Lemme sketch out a typical IBAian's Day...
Leave the sack at 8 AM
Browse news paper till 8.30
Breakfast by 8.55
class at 9 ( typical 3 hrs session with 10 minutes break after first half)
lunch at 12.30 to 1.30
second class at 2
tea (sorry water with tea smell...) at 5
time for oneself till 9 pm
dinner at 9
then group work till 12
asignment
hit the sack at 2 or 2.30 AM
But above is an ideal situation...
Constraints that pop up are someday
we hav more than 3 lectures
lectures can stretch upto 6 hrs ( Quite often)
We have Club work to do.
Any given day presentation is due
Any given day Assignment is due
Then there is corporate lectures etc
Visiting Faculties often come early in the morning i.e 7 am slot or late evening slot i.e after 5 PM.
last but not the list we hav personal probs to sort out (More acute for committed mortals)...
So there is no Acclimitisation with IBA schedule as it keeps changing. our Biological clock is set to new timings everyday. But this is life and as a Fledgling B School we can expect this.
ok,thats it for now,,,

IBA.
hi!!nice to see a new thread on IBA.it was interesting to know about the various observations of Biswa. i got to know a few things which i didn't knew before.now that a senior has given details of their life at IBA it is high time that a junior said something about our life here.
Frankly speaking the pressure isn't too much provided you know how to prioritise and work smartly.mere hard work isn't enough. even a donkey works hard.most of our night time is spent on the so called discussions wherein 2 or 3 will go on "Orkutting", 2 more will be really discussing the case and 3 more will be roaming around here and there doing really nothing.group activity is like some 10 people coming together and solving a case study which they would have individually done in one tenth of the time.as far as i am concerned i spend the other 9/10 of the time in convincing the other members of the group about my point of view. but being an eternal optimist i don't freak out thinking that all this will improve my convincing skills!
as far as the classes are concerned we are slowly but steadily learning how to "sleep while sitting on the chair".not that the lectures are that boring. but we somehow manage to find an excuse for our sleep. even before coming to IBA i have sat through 7 hours of non stop geometry class(imagine, of all things geometry!).we were not allowed to yawn( to prevent something known as the yawning infection-when one yawns others follow suit), look at the watch ,or talk to each other.the biggest travestry was we were not even allowed to go to the loo!so i think i know what i am speaking when i say that there is no such thing called inattentive students,there are only uninteresting taechers.if you are interesting others are bound to listen to you.
i have so many things to say and i will do that in due course of time.whatever i have written till now kind of gives the impression that the classroom experience is not good enough which i think is far from the truth. in fact i feel bored when i don't have classes throughout the day.my batchmates fly to the city when ever they get a chance. in fact one of my friends is so adept at his flying skills that he is known as the "visiting student " of IBA.of course this is because he has a girlfriend in the city.most of us are trying to ward off this dilemma by trying to have a girlfriend in the campus itself! after all as future managers we are supposed to be adept at time management skills!
something about the clubs.i have joined 4 clubs inspite of the warning that i wouldn't be able to manage time. but i anyway went ahead because i believe in challenging myself.how many of have really tested our potential? during the tsunami there was an incident about a person who spent 16 days floating on a log eating only coconuts floating in the water. i think what i am doing is nothing compared to it. i think in b-school campusses it has become fashionable to speak of the workload.the more you have the better you are.IIM -A students feel mighty pleased while talking about their precarious condition. they say if you survive IIM-A you can Survive anything in the world. and we all try to emulate them.
so i will also talk about my problems- like how not to smell bad even after not taking a bath for 2 days consequtively,how to manage with only three hours of sleep,how to take a nap between classes,etc.
i am slowly becoming a nocturnal animal.yesterday night i slept only for three hours,today also i don't hope to get more than 4 hours of sleep(it already 3 in the morning). but still i am enjoying.dash it all man!! who wants to sleep when i have so many things to do.i wish my body never needed something called sleep.
enough of my bakwas i am writing no more today.for anyone who cares to know my room no is 225.and before i leave i promise-
I'LL BE BACK!!!!!!!!
:grab: :

Hi Folks,,,
IBA Thread is picking up the tempo. thats a good sign. I hope more and more people flock here instead near Gowda Shop or Mess!!!
Donno why people keep scrapping in orkut instead scrapping in PG??? Can anyone make them understand the goodies that comes with PG??? Some guys think i am getting some benefit out of forcing people join PG...Thats far from truth...
Neways my lobbying of PG to my batch mates will continue...
Since 5 days my room looks deserted or is it my room sounds that way???...ya ya it sounds that way bcoz my 2800watts 5.1 has gone for a check up. Hopefully it will come back in 2 more days. Forgot to tell u..Loud Music is Oxygen for me... I breathe through my 5.1 Edifier. U know my 100 GB MP3 collection has rotten and i guess it needs sun bathing soon. ( Fungus attacked it last nite after it was unused for 4 days)
Some guys admonish me for listening only to Remixes which has a share of 40% of overall collection. But i love the loud decibel sounds and Techno beats, Bass quakes... its the ultimate salvation. Away from civilisation with a bunch of smart kidz fighting for a degree what do u do when u get tired of system?? Oh yeah listen to music... But i hav to rethink my explanation as i hav already recieved warning from Admin thrice...
About Remix Vs Original????
This is a tough one... Isn't the Old wine in new bottle always a hit....
- Remix always hav a good lyrics ( Bcoz Good songs are picked to be remixed)
- If u dont want to listen to the Techno beats or bass tunes why the hell buy Speker system then...
- Whole packaging of song is entertaining.
- Beats are fast and catchy so in turn pep up mood and lifts u up ( till ur head bangs the ceiling)
Music apart, one thing always bother me.... that we dont hav a Good Audi... ya true.
2 Audi's that r there r very small. sitting capacity of 100 max. It is used for guests lecture etc. But i hav seen Audi of different colleges and we suck!!! Thats the reason every other function has to be done outside (Plenty of space in IBA campus) inside a Shamiana...
First year introduction sesssion to Graduation ceremony is done under a shamiana...what i dont understand is why not a build a big Audi which can be used to host all these functions.. Moreover imp guest lecture (Like when chairman of DAbur came calling last year) can be host without hassles. That day we had to fight for a Inch of place in T1 Audi to rest our backs... that gentleman must hav thought how eager this crowd is.. they r simply fighting to be there and listen to me.....
Sorry sir the only reason we were there was a Pricey Fine of 500 rupees for not attaining that lecture!!!
Another factor is MAnagement Fest.. IBA has always come champs at many events in and around Blore. Thats a very good achievement but why can't we host a Fest ourselves???
That would be a real Brand Bulding exercise. IBA is conspicuous in hosting a Fest in Fest circuit although offset that winning medals... May be A big Audi of 1000 capacity is imperative in order to host any fest. lets c....
and i am getting real pissed off by the food in mess. everytime i cant move to Vaishnovi..its so costly and thing is why the hell should i go when i hav paid 18000 a year for mess. ANyways i make it up by regulary having Kauwa Kabab at Ranga.....
We r in IBA for 9 months a year so the mess charge we pay per day is Rs 66
A break fast, lunch , dinner and a tea cost Rs 60 at Shanti sagar for a day.
Is it not possible to offer a better deal...Rafique????
Hope Young Guns who hav just joined IBA can take lead and fight it out...we r old and tired, so excuse us....
Thats it for now,
Biswa Prakash

hi evryone its a gr88 initiative by one of our seniors .i m a student of the 06-08 batch at iba and staying in the outside hostel.so far its been a mixed bag of experiences but i m enjoying it .n be rest assured i ll be an active member of this forum as i have always been of any forum related to IBA.
bye
Hi Folks,
Bad news is i am putting weight and good news is i will lose weight..
Today morning i was rushing for a ppt when i discovered no Trousers is fitting in but somehow i managed to put on a Tight Trouser and run for life...
This is despite the Pathetic food in mess... There is a Gym near KK Cross and it cost only 275 bucks per month. That Gym is on my radar...gotta join it soon...
Today i overheard 2 juniors arguing about who is better off?? Incampus Guys (IG) or LPG??
For the uninitiated LPG means Laxmipua Paying Guest, situated at a stone's throw from IBA main campus. It houses those guys who could not find place in Incampus hostel bcoz it was filled. May be bcoz LPG guys paid their fees late...yes IBA runs on First come first serve with Money on all matters (Sounds mercenary!!!) so guys dont repeat the same mistake when u opt for single occupancy during second year...
Ok who is having a ball??? IG or LPG???
LETS FIND OUT:
IG can get up at 8.59 AM and reach CP class at dot 9 before he makes a moron out of himself without brushing his teeth...but LPG cant do that . They hav to fore go 5 minutes of his precious sleep in order to be in time.
IG can get any notice from Faculty or Admin first whereas LPG gets later.
IG has Wifi facility LPG dont hav. God Knows WiFi is extensiuvely used for what....Orkut, Messenger, Song download, Mail, Cards etc not in any order... LPG has to slogg here in campus till dawn...thats pathetic but intelligent guys use this oppurtunity to bulid their chances with the fairer sex on the pretext of Meeting for ppt and assignments etc.
IG can catch his lost sleep in between 2 classes ( Lets say there is a break for 1 hour). But LPG cant go back and sleep in his room and come back...So wisdom says LPG should make one Best Friend with an IG and utilize his room for taking a siesta...Moreover he can pass u any urgent info or notice etc.
IG had the luxury from being screwed by seniors during sessions. But the bad effect is all too visibile by the swagger shown by LPG...so throwing caution to the wind i must add senior r thinking of doing something...
LPG on other hand has the liberty to go city and return at 3 in the morning. No questions asked..
LPG can booze , party as on when wished. (The Pics of First party on roof top was amazing.isn't it???)
No seniors to run on ur nerves in LPG.
LPG can ask his frens to come and stay with him without the Admin knowing a shit...
Poor LPG has to clean his own toilets and thats bad.
News paper is unreachable i guess...
Above all one thing that is striking is LPG guys hav a special bond and camaderie bcoz they r away and separate and Minority....Use it judiciously and extract mileage out of this from Admin, Security, Seniors, Faculty whoever.. You hav lot of leeway and u should know how to utilise but all this is not bcoz i was a RPG last year but most of my close buddies were in RPG last year and i had lot of fun with them and continue to do so....
Good sign juniors are coming forward to write up....but DO we need Reservations for Women here???I can call Arjun Singh... or someone will take the lead to script her feelings...
Thats it,
Biswa Prakash,
IBA
Just want to say Hiii!!!! to all.
Hi Folks,
Network is down since yesterday night and life at IBA has come to a grinding halt....
Assignments, Presentations, Online Exams Scheduled for today took a sever beating and bY grace of god Online exam was postponed...
I dont know how SCM guys prepared their PPT's without Google???
Google is Lifeline here and i cant see life after Google...
Campus is abuzz with rumours...
Somebody dying , someone being hospitalized so on so forth....
Well for long our Sys Admin had a field day doing only Configuring Laptops, but now he is having a very tough time dealing with the present crisis.. There seems to be a Conflict between IP Address in the netwotk.. That is bcoz of some nerd claiming to be next to Bill Gates..He is beating his chest bcoz he has spoofed network by assigning a static IP address (Non IT guys plz excuse me for this Nerdic Language..) against IBA's Internet Policy..
But his action had strong repercussion as evident by now that Network is completely knocked out.. Lets c what will our Sys Admin do to get things in control....
This is the first major crisis of Systems in IBA and we r pleased or dis pleased to experience it...
No Class scheduled to day so i will better catch some sleep now bcoz gotta attend cosmos in evening then BI ppt is staring to be completed as quickly possible...
Thats it,
Biswa Prakash
IBA
Hi Folks,

Hi Folks...
Hi Junta!!!
Happy friendship week...
Hope i will get back soon...
Biswa Prakash
Generally speaking I find the response to this thread really poor. IBAians, I feel are traditionally averse to pagalguy, while most B-schools of repute will have the alumni and the existing students in pg. This really helps as the prospective students can really get some fruitful insight from the students - which we were looking for when we were considering the option of IBA. We did not have a single senior to guide us through with the inside stories which we were looking for. In this regard Mr.Biswa Prakash did a commendable job to come forward and start a thread. All students out here have a fascination for Orkut and to some extent Yahoo group but not pg, which is really sort of surprising!! What more we find the thread starter posting everyday with very few coming forward to share their experiences in the thread!! So Mr.Biswa Prakash I gave u a topic. U throw some light on this apathy and this 'paradox'.
This really doesnt showcase our institute well in a public forum like this.
This really doesnt showcase our institute well in a public forum like this.
Hi Folks,
Susobhan has just hit the nail on its headand rightly so..As I have already wrote on this forum that Guys out here love spending time in Orkut but not in PG. People here love hanging around at Gowda rather in Library By the way Library is like sanctum sanctorum. Not bcoz u pay 500 bucks for making noise but it is always deserted!!!
As I have wrote here, this thread is for MBA aspirants who dream to be in IIM but eventually find themselves in IBA.. This thread is all about True Mirror of the happenings here, Inside story as they call it, So that they can take a informed decision.. ( Susobhan has pointed this out). But I get lot of threatening as to why I am tarnishing IBAs image ..AM I???? Culprit goes a begging but one who get it caught is punishedhope u get the message. As long as I am here I will account every detail , my experience here in IBA honestly may be I make some foe in process
Susobhan, I can appeal others to share their experience but cannt write for them..i wish I couldI have been suggesting in way pestering others to write in this thread but no one seem interested. So lets analyze why???
People here dont like to write. When they can speak so well why the hell write..
Thats bcoz writing is time consuming and its difficult putting in words what u feel.
Orkut gives u a direct connection or podium where u can establish a interacting relationship with others which is absent in PG Hopefully this is a hint t PG to redesign their offerings!!!
And most people r in orkut to build friendship and hopefully with opposite sex. And Ladies r few in numbers in PG
If u compare students of some top rung Bschools with IBA the striking difference is Mental make up There people hav some agenda and objective. Everything that they do hav some Value addition for which they pursue the act, But here people do what they are doing is bcoz they hav to do it.
Somewhere before I stated people here are smart.. but no one real intelligent This might be a belligerent statement but this is reality.. I havnt come across a analytical mortal here. Cut Copy Paste rules the roost Study is a good time pass and when the whole learning process is so loose how one can expect that they will hav motivation to share xperiences difficult task cut out.. isnt it.. Is it rocket science then that Companies come here to offer Sales job where as IIMs get the Consultancy job.
Moreover people here are so Relationship oriented, no one is really career oriented.. yes its again a hard statement to make but its a reality. We just want to finish off 2 years and get through placements.. what is the difference that we r making here in these 2 years???? We want to hav a fling, so called couples here are visible all over the campus One who doesnt hav a arm-candy feels dejected People who know nothing of relationship hav arm-candies to show off So IBA is good place to scout partners rather than some serious soul searching as to where u want to take our career
So how will these people find time to jot down their experiences which might benefit others????
Anyways all these observations are my opinion and doesnt essentially directed towards someone. Everyone is right in what he is doing. He is the commander of his ship. I cant comment whether he is right or not. ( I am knowingly using HE bcoz I know ladies dont come to this forum at least in IBA).
After all IIMs are IIMs not any other Institute!!!
Culture that they hav isnt built over night but it comes with the mindset that those people carry there. I dont expect that that will happen overnight here, but if we want we can hav it here. We need a mindset change
Hopefully the time has come,,,,bcoz i am tired of keeping this thread alive by posting every nite...
Happy Frienship Day,

dont worry Sir... I am there with u... ur valiant efforts wont go waste. If u see the previous thread of IBA which I started b4 coming to the Campus was really successful though it did take effort, well that was 'networking'. If u see - we have lot of pgs in 06-08 batch than in 05-07 batch, but I suppose whatever u said is contagious so much so that these pgs of our batch also donot find the time to post their experiences even with me informing quite a few of them.:grab:
