For a while now I've been wanting to get in touch with UCLA Anderson alumni in New Delhi itself. This past weekend 3 fellow MBA '13 admits and I finally caught up with Anshul Debuka, MBA '11 for lunch as he told a wondrous tale of his time at UCLA Anderson.
His experience was great. Talking to him made us realize exactly what we were getting into. He told us about what we could expect in our first 6 months (sounded grueling!) and what we needed to do to get to where we want to be post-MBA. He talked about the collaborative culture at Anderson and the fact that we could expect to have 360 great friends from school by the time we graduate!
Topics that came up were classes and electives, internships, recruitments, networking, Parker CMC, Weyburn Terrace, food joints, cars, Hollywood, beaches and Vegas.
Also, interestingly, he mentioned "fun" at least 30 times in 2 hours.
<unfortunately, at this time, none of us were carrying cameras, so try to imagine 4 happy MBA '13 admits, full of promise, and an MBA '11 alum with an air of accomplishment and satisfaction!>
"It'll be the best 2 years of your life!" he said as we parted post lunch. Looking forward to it!
- Karan Kumar, MBA '13
