Term-2 has begun...

Friday, June 17, 2005

... so what is new? This term's courses are Global Economics(taken by Ravi Bansal and Krishna Kumar), Competitive Strategy(taken by Akbar Zaheer and Harbir Singh), Marketing Decision Making(taken by Jagmohan Raju) and Decision Models and Optimisation(taken by Anjani Jain and Ziv Katalan).

We have just finished classes for week-1... We had only one class per day (GE and CS only) as the other professors have not yet come to campus. This is going to increase the burden for next week as we have three classes in one of the days. Last term, we had a regular schedule for all the weeks. But this time, we have classes on random days and random number of classes on each day!! It is so difficult to stick to a schedule for sleep or other activities for the day!

In addition, we have marks for class participation in all the courses this term. So cannot afford to go to class without reading the material. We have cases to analyse for all the CS classes. The courses this term are interesting to learn but I am already dreading the idea of writing exams for any of these.

Today, the Gachibulls (Section-B) had a party. I cut the cake as I am the youngest in my section(or the kid as they call it)! There were a lot of games organised with music and snacks... kudos to the organisers and our section-rep for putting in the effort. Tomorrow we have the GSB party right outside my room... long time since we had one... so should be good to get to the dance floor again!
