Is writing examination a waste of time?
Examination as given by today’s students is only means of reproducing data on a piece of paper. You are supposed to write whatever you remember OR create your own concepts real time. You read the data and reproduce it within 2 hours of time. Why is this important? Will this create a good leader?
People when given a task in real life, will use the same concepts and logics which is expected by the examiner more efficiently. If the same set of people when asked to write these concepts on paper within 2 hours may fail drastically. There are complex set of students present in a class, some are not even able to express themselves in a casual open forum, some like me can’t stop talking, does writing an examination give the first type of students to speak up?
Personally I think it is a waste of time and energy. You don’t learn the concepts to replicate it on paper but to use it. If writing is so important, why not write a memo or a white paper instead? Atleast it gives more insight on the subject…
Is anyone listening?

Exam Fever…
One month to go for the second trimester and it has already started gripping all of us. There are two different teams to work with one in college and the other at work place (HR concepts to be applied here 🙂 ). None of the two is less important. If there are project deliveries coming near so are presentation day.
Lecture cancelled seems to be a boon to all of us at this point of time.
There would be no books available in the library and no time to read this blog. We have to remain hooked to yahoo group for the notes and the announcements.
Exams are coming soon…
All the best for the exams to all of us…

Inaugural Post
Welcome you all to the world of NMIMS PTMBA Systems blog. This idea has been initiated by PA and pushed forward by me and thanks all you people for joining the line by contributing.
One question that would come in minds of many is why such a name has been thought off as the URL i.e. “nmimscomingsoon”. The meaning behind such a name is very simple. “Coming soon” indicates that future managers of NMIMS are ‘coming soon’ after 3 years. It would be a motivating factor for all of us when we start writing down the URL in the address bar of the browser in an attempt to read the blog. So each time one types the url or just clicks the URL he/she is actually writing or clicking about himself/herself.
Now that we all are motivated lets start contributing to this blog so that we keep this alive. Let’s rock this world by our blog which is not a one man show. Your contribution on anything like articles related to management, views and thoughts, NMIMS events, or any class events will make this blog a success.
Happy Blogging.
And
Wish you a very Happy Diwali and a Prosperous New Year.
