Life at CBS: Phase 1

⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠To begin with some clichéd, always enchanted phrases that raise University of Delhi to a pedestal of eminent universities of the world, take my word for it, this fact can never be overstated. University of Delhi is indeed one of the finest places to be at, SSCBS is another.

Life then and now : The lesson of adaptation

I still reminisce over the time when I entered a dilapidated building which happens to be a college situated in not so famous area of Jhilmil in East Delhi, first time for my admission process there, leaving most of the other well-known North Campus colleges. Soon it became home.

The Final Choice: BMS vs BBA(FIA)

The decision that most of you will be expected to make in the next few days will be of choosing the course you desire to pursue and of course, the college that you choose to do that from. The choice is imperative, and perplexing, given the nature of it and the impact it might have on your long term goals and in the shorter run, on the next three years of your life.

CBS Diaries: A Bird in the Flock

The day I walked in CBS as a first year student, I was proudly welcomed with a ‘Tilak’, a mark of warmth and sancity in India. It was a way for our seniors to express their bliss on our arrival and wish us luck on the journey we began. The ritual had managed to achieved something else as well; every freshman could be spotted easily. It helped me connect with the people going through the same nervousness and euphoria.

Leading my way to rank 1

“All you have to do, is to take your everyday pencil, and fill up the correct circle. Repeat. 120 times.” 

That’s what I was told, a little over a year back, when I went to a counsellor regarding my preparation for SSCBS.

In my school life, I’ve never been at the sharp end of academics, with it culminating with a score of 94.4% in my boards. Yet, the transparent, objective pattern of the DU-JAT entrance examination offered me, and now to you, the perfect chance to shine and show your mettle.

The only thing that I was skeptical about was the tiny campus in one relatively unknown area of my city.

ADIEU TO JHILMIL

I still remember the day I went to Jhilmil for my admission and got down the e-rickshaw and my brother asked me what I was finding as I looked here and there trying to find where my college building was. He pointed to an old pinkish building and showed it to me as my mouth was wide open trying to digest the fact that my college campus was nowhere near to what I had expected it to be.
