During my IIM B interview, the panelists after explaining why IIM B is better than IIM C for industry interactions as well as consulting to small scale industries asked me,
"So Suhas, let us say you are going to live in an ideal world for the next two years and if everything were to go as you would dream in your most optimistic dreams, where do you see yourself two years down the line ?"
Just to toe the optimistic fantasy line I laughed and said," I would get into IIM A, would go on to top the batch and get a gold medal there & would join McKinsey and Co as a consultant!!". Understanding that I had played the optimistic fantasy line too far the panelists also laughed !
Two years down the line I am glad I got atleast two of the three dreams played out for real in my life ! I did go to IIM A !! And now I have got an offer to join McKinsey and Co !!
I also understood the power of dreams!!
