A special day, First class, First day in First Term of ISB. Great moment to see the names of all the section mates neatly and largely written on nameplates. Managerial Economics was taken by Prof. Amit Bubna. He is a pretty young professor, so he easily builds rapport with students. The class mainly dealt with fundamentals of economics. Since we have completed the majority of reading and since the topics were easier, the class was not memorable..

The Marketing management was taken by Scot Ward. A friendly person, more than middle-aged professor from USA. The way he carried himself in the class was striking. He remembered each and every question posed by the student and beautifully correlated his answers with those questions, whenever he came across a topic..Not easy!

The Marketing case on East Man Kodak company was interesting. I understood the ways in which a case should be approached. Our study group did a good job in doing quantitative analysis, but still we didn’t consider all the data that was provided. The professor made it clear that the data is not provided for decoration…Use it..whenever you provide a recommendation, substantiate it quantitatively, not qualititatively…

I am getting used to the long study hours and less sleeping hours. I thought of sleeping in the afternoon, but ended up in library. Played volleyball for 1 hour in the evening.

The heat in hyderabad is getting worse. Luckily, it rained today evening and there was a pleasant weather today evening.
