And finally the day has come. Finally after making 3 attempts I was able to get a sole IIM call from Lucknow. I remember the day (night in fact) I saw my result , called my friend who used to accompany me to write all the mock tests. Both of us were so happy. Since then one half of my brain had CAT preparation filled inside and god they want you to write essay also (Verbal is already weak ;) and they again want me to write an essay). If only I had started blogging earlier, would have developed decent writing skills by now. Started preparation for the 2nd phase with the following questions: Where do I stand? Do I have a chance? What all things I need to study? . With the remaining half of my mind I used to manage my office and daily work. As the interview date approached nearer, tension started to increase but used to calm myself by saying: sulabh you have nothing to lose. Already you have a good job. Just go by free mind and whatever happens will be good for you. But there was always a thought that this is something which might change my life completely. I feel it is very important to take away all these apprehensions from your mind. It is little diffcult though when you get one single call in your last attempt ;).
Finally the night before the interview arrived and 2 months of anxiety, discomfort and prepartion will be over in just about 12 hours time. More than the interview I was thinking about the relief I will get after the interview is over. As it happens to me before any big day, I kept on rolling in the bed for hours but could not get sleep. Every five mins I ll be imagining myself in the interview room or on the GD table. Will peep into the watch and get shocked. God its 12 . its 1 ..oh my god it is 2 already.. 7-2, just 5 hours of sleep. Finally was able to sleep for some time before the alarm rang at 7...
Fortunately this time I really went with a clear mind and did my best.Time will tell if my best was good enough ;).. I am so happy that it is over... Time to relax ....
