If I ever in my senility would want to write an autobio than today would certainly qualify to be part of it.It is with this incredible feelin i write this blog.
Me n Uday(a.k.a psycho),the usual suspects for any quizzin event,have done it,broke free of prelims jinx.For the first time we have reached the finals(top 6 teams) of national level business quizzing contest.
We were one of the teams to qualify for the Finals (top 6 teams) of the "ET in the classroom quiz",this is not just any normal college business quiz.Its been happening for a decade now, promoted by Economic Times.Conducted by one of the ace quiz masters of the country Mr. Giri Balasubramanium known to the quizzing world as PickBrain.
I am certainly not boasting about what meagre we have achieved today but i just want to take u guys down the memory lane, last year november,myself and Uday just after our 1st Sem had come together,both of us were passionate about quizzin more than anything else, it wasnt the prize money but the passion to compete with the best and to know about the best in the business was the motivation that brought us together.And this undyin spirit is what carries us to every business quiz.And on one time we had the chance of stepping into the quiz master's shoes at our colleges own annual gathering Trishna where we conducted a "successful" quiz, and worth mentioning is the marketin quiz that i conducted and i appreciate the overwhelmin participation from the class (MBA) and am glad that u guys had fun.
And at a moment when i was thinkin its been 4 months we have been quizzin together and apart from a second place finish at IIPM ,nothin much worth mentioning, or on the other hand, its only been just 4 months since we started quizzin.we as a team are still evolving ,complimenting each other n starting to gel. we had this performance today, only to affirm my feelin that we hav been improving.
Even though we havent finished in the top 3 in todays quiz , with rejuvenated spirit we hope to improve our performance,try harder than befor to be consistent and to carry on the Quizzin culture that ICFAI is known for over the years.
when it comes to quizzing, but i would like to add here that a lot has to be done to achieve glory. if we r to win any big events this year then we need to put in multiple efforts of what we have achieved till date. touch wood for the same......
Some Trivia - ICFAI has been finalist and winners of "ET in classroom" few times in the past.
Also ICFAI were the winners of Tata Crucible, a nation wide quizzin event by TATA Group for Colleges in 2004.
way to go ...
