Term 7 done - 87.5% MBA

So term 7 is also officially over. A surprisingly light one in terms of course work. I don't know of anyone who did four courses this term. There were people who did PAEV earlier and did just two courses this term. Anyhow I did three very good courses. Negotiation Analysis (NEGA), Advertising(ADVT) and Capital Raising Strategies in Corporations (CRSC).

If there is one course that is of greatest value for practical life it is NEGA. Recruiters beware, almost 300+ students have done this course over the last two terms :). Two amazing profs., ISB's own Dishan Kamdar and Catherine Tinsley from Georgetown Univ conduced NEGA this term. In every single class we had live negotiations and there were valuable lessons from each and every one of them. I just can't wait to apply these in real business negotiations. Advertising was another good course. Very light on work, good professors, lotsa videos in class and a final agency project. It was fun all throughout. Of the lot I really enjoyed the Mountain Dew assignment...To cap of a brilliant term we had two great professors for CRSC. The concepts of IPO, Project Financing, Film financing and rainfall insurance were presented so lucidly by Prof. Prabhala and Prof. Kapadia. I'm just amazed that in spite of placement pressures I could enjoy term 7 so much. Thank goodness.

Now all roads lead to placements, which start this Sunday. Shortlists and dings have started pouring in. More expected this week. Preps, mock iHopefully will have something interesting to post in about 2 weeks time. Adios amigos!
