IIM Websites....for the MBA dream of India!: FPM-9

IIM Websites....for the MBA dream of India!

....Welcome to my blogspot for MBA aspirants in India.

I am an MBA from IRMA and my name is Aju John Varghese. I have worked in the past full-time with TIME & IMS and is now AVP & Karnataka Business Head with CL (I was GM & the head of College test prep of TIME South in the past).

As a rule, I try to write the CAT every year to keep in touch with the changes so that I can help my students effectively in preparation for the tests. I was associated with a Business Research firm called Analytiks based in ITES Infopark, Cochin as a Promoter Business Head and has been into core management education & has in the past taught for MBA with the ICFAI group & been an Assistant Professor at Rajagiri School of Management, Cochin.

For more info on me you can check out: http://ajuinjesus.in

I have created this page for all MBA aspirants & my students anywhere, who would like to get access to all the best online resources for getting equipped for a career in Management. I am convinced that there are enough sites that do the job well, but there is no good aggregator of links for the same. In this site, i have tried to collect & pass on to you some of the best links that would come of use to you- hence to act like a beacon or a lighthouse for the MBA aspirant!

My only request to you:
1)Remember those who helped you reach where you are
2)Help the poor of India become self-sufficient
3)Let me know more links if you come across some good ones which are not part of this list.

So enjoy, and have a good career & life.
Bye & God Bless.....Aju John...

what extra prepration you did for the IIMA interview?? can you please shed some light on that?
and how much different was the fpm interview from pgp in terms of attitude of the interviewing staff and their seriousness. is it purely like we will be spending so much money on you and you better be the next abdul kalam !! or on a lighter note....

i have a IIML fpm call,
here are acads
10th 82.5 ICSE
12th 85.2 CBSE
B.tech(Computer Science) 70.5 (till 6th semester)
cat 96.79

i m a fresher and want some perspective on what i could expect in my IIML FPM interview(and also test) any inputs from you guys will be highly appreciated

i opted for IT&systems and marketing

....me did no xtra prepn-but maybe u shud:to be on the safer side . I thought things were very apparant, seemingly it is not so!
apart from what i already mentioned, ppl were asked on Statistics- basic stuff + some things on Research methodology.
My feeling is, they are not very particular abt whether u have any teaching/training background or not. If u have a good acad background + good CAT score + can answer basic ques in Stat + quant + Research methods...plus can justify why FPM (i have seen so many freshers get thru) + can justify on ur area of interest & connect it with ur background/what u have done so far + can identify some topic of in ur area of interest + can stand their scrutiny of that topic, ...i think u stand a good chance...

But the above is based on what mine & others exp at IIMA interviews go; dont know if it will hold good for other IIM's! Cant clarify any further since dont know any further....

Regards & Best of luck....

John.
