Overall experience at ISB
Starting with the orientation week, interacting with the alums, getting to know the section mates and familiarizing the faces of 417 others were the initial challenges which all of us soon overcame. As the days passed by, group studies, assignment all throughout the night, class discussions / debates on different topics, the interaction on a regular basis with the champions of the industry, the frenzied moods of students before the exams, getting dunked at the swimming pool, partying all throughout the night after the term exams are some of the experience of a lifetime at ISB which all of us shall cherish in the years to come |
