I saved this thinking that i can end it on a happy note.But things don't work out as we plan them to be right? After all this is LIFE.

Ok here it goes,After spectacular debacle of CAT last year,I was determined i Would clear it and study from a top league B-School.One of the best moments in my life was when i checked the score card.Ya i forgot to mention that i turned off my phone so i can shut out myself from the rest of the world in case it goes bad,It was funny I couldn't wait to turn it on when i saw the result.Yay..Happy it was a good score.Still i managed to get calls from only IIM K,New IIM's,SP jain and IIT Kharagpur(best calls among the one's i have applied,missed applying for NITIE and MDI though) Deepest regret that i didn't listen to kushal when he told me to apply.

Now let me tell you that was yet another big day when i got shortlisted for spjain considering my profile is average.Went for the Interview,The Group Interview process seemed weird because that's the first time i got to know that there is something like that(Group Interview).So on the day of interview it was so messed up(must be..!!!) went to wrong center.somehow reached just on time.The topic for WAT was One situation is life when it was tricky and you found a simple solution..Seriously..!!! i was pondering if i was ever so ingenious in my life.Then i wrote down some incident from my school(I felt it was silly but couldn't think of anything else).Then i was called for the first GI-1.There were 7 people.2 Marketing,2 finance and 3 operations.It started with introduction.Tell about yourself and why Operations.I knew this was the single question that is nerve wrecking,i pulled my hair for few days to come up with a decent answer and on the day i was posed that question I barely managed to say what i prepared..It was a total different answer but decent.There was one girl who talked about quality management..God!! Asked me too..I heard little from my seniors at work about lean and sigma.Then came what is sigma,standard deviation,mode,median and mean.I was so smart i took an example from 1-11 numbers where median and mean is same.Okay again second try i managed to say it correct.So i waited till GI1 results were announced.Hurrah through..!!! Second round was very cool more about personal life questions,nothing right or wrong.

This is the best call i have for this year.I had really high hopes on this.Got to know that they were calling everyone who converted individually.Didn't like the idea though,but still waited long expecting a call.was wondering my eyes would pop out if i stare for some more time at my phone.Then there was a post on PG that all calls have been made for the converts.So wait again for the wait list !!!And today I looked at the screen, there is no chance i would convert at that wait list number.I was sad,dejected and devastated.But some how that smile crossed through my lips that at least iam not rejected..!!!Tried deriving lot's of theories to predict my loss,after all it's better than thinking that iam less than someone.It's ok.. now I will hope for the best in other results and do my best for the other interviews..It's not the end of the road,just a milestone.So I believe there is something wonderful is about to happen.!!!

This is one day when i lost the best chance to be a part of one of the best institutes.Nevertheless the journey was great.:)Thanks to the people who always guide me ,encourage me and stay by my side no matter what.
