tougher half of the journey.
You ask anyone for guidance on PI Prep – coaching institutes, seniors, alumni, batchmates – they are bound to effortlessly give you the most tedious tasks by saying, “Nothing much bro, just do Acads, Current Affairs, Personal Questions and CV-based… Sorted!”

STEP 1
Begin with Personal/HR-Based Questions:

It was the month of August and I was scrolling the analytics tab of my blog to look for areas of improvement. The blog had crossed 0.6 million views in a matter of 8 months and I couldn't have asked for more. I still remember writing on Quora with no intention to start a blog someday. And just like the blog, I had no plans to start the YouTube Channel either.
Both decisions were made after hearing what the community had to say. In most of our marketing classes on campus, we were taught that "the consumer is always right" but this was my first-hand experience at observing what happens when you ..read more

Common Admission Test (CAT), the MBA entrance exam accepted by the premier B-schools in India is one of the most rigorous exams in terms of preparation. On an average, it takes 11-12 months to prepare for this exam with a majority of aspirants starting their preparation in the month of January. For an exam as tedious as this, a student must embrace himself or herself before-hand to prepare accordingly.

When I was pursuing my M.com degree from the Delhi School of Economics, I used to have this amazing professor named Dr. Shanti Lal Bhushan who used to teach us the subject of statistics. The way he taught us amazes me to this very day. Every concept that he taught in class is still as fresh and crystalline in my mind as vegetables from some fertile organic farm.
I guess it was his unique teaching style which has contributed so much to me wanting to be a mentor myself someday, so much so that I even use some of the same analogies to teach my students about economics, that he used to teach me wi ..read more
