Roy: - Oops! Thank God! I have passed in the subject of ‘Macro-Economics & Business Environment’ in our 2nd Semester. I was expecting to fail in it.
Sain: - Ha ha ha…I was also expecting the same. By the way, you have done your B.Com degree from Jaipuria College. In B.Com syllabus, you people have already learnt about Economics. I have done my B-Tech under West Bengal University of Technology. In our curriculum, there was no subject on Economics.
Roy: - All Engineering students have a wrong perception that all B.Com students are good at economics. Boss, in our B.Com studies, we have learnt about accounting in details, not about Economics and Finance. But, one thing, you have to accept that an Engineering student studying under WBUT gets higher percentage of marks than any plain graduate student under Calcutta University (CU). Under CU, a student has to struggle to get 60%. It is very hard to get good numbers in any examination of Calcutta University.
Ayandeep: - Who told you that Engineers always get high percentage? Maybe, the WBUT has a good grading system, that’s why; hardly have I seen any of their Engineering students getting below 60% marks. But, go to Karnataka or Maharashtra. The Engineering students studying in Karnataka or Maharashtra hardly gets more than 60% marks. Take my case only. I have studied Engineering under Pune University. I have secured only 57%. Only 37 students out of 178 students in our college got more than 60% marks. As a net result, I cannot appear for most of the companies that will be visiting our ICFAI Business School – Kolkata campus in this year of 2007 as I don’t have 60% marks throughout in my academics.
Debarjun: - Hmm…that’s a problem. Every University in India should follow a standard and uniform grading system. There is no guarantee that a student of other University with around 85% marks is as intelligent as a student of Calcutta University with 56% marks. It is only because of the fact that there is a huge disparity in the grading system followed by different universities.
Debrup: - Uff…you people have started discussing about the education system and results. Just stop this discussion. We have ended our Summer Internship Program (SIP). We have also got the 2nd Semester results. Our 3rd Semester classes will start from 14th June 2007. Today, it is 30th May 2007. Once the college classes commence, we will not be able to go for any tour because the companies will start visiting our campus. Already, Sumita Madam has declared the company names and their probable visiting dates. D E Shaw, Nerolac Paints, TCS, 3i Infotech, Eveready, Satyam, Bank of Baroda, HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, Philips and TATA AIG will be visiting in between July and September.
Debarjun: - Dhhurrh…Sumita madam is not as efficient as Piyasi Sen was. Last year, believe me, even IDBI Bank, Eserve International and PWC came to recruit from our campus and that too before the SIP of our seniors. This year in 2007, I am damn sure that many companies will not visit our campus due to the attitude problem of Sumita Mukherjee. Basically, Sumita played politics on Piyasi to grab the position of Placement Officer. Now, Piyasi has moved to Globsyn Technologies and is using all her connections to get their students placed.
Sain: - Arrey, babah…you people don’t know the politics behind placing a student. For placing a student to a corporate, the placement officer charges some amount of money from the HR manager of that company. It is quite acceptable, because ultimately, the placement officer is giving a market ready human resource to that company. ICFAI Business School teachers have given their efforts to transform every ordinary student into a future manager. So, they cannot give their resources to a corporate without charging any money. But, in this case, I think that Sumita is charging more money than Piyasi. Moreover, unlike Piyasi, Sumita is herself deciding, who will appear for which company’s selection process. That’s not fair. Anyway, we will see what happens. Let’s not discuss about it. Debrup is right. We should go for a tour. But, where should we go?
