PS1: This would also probably be my last cartooning attempt .. gosh, it took an entire evening :|PS2: My grand viva experience would be up next week...
IIM Calcutta interview was scheduled the day after the disastrous A interview. Here's my experience, which I don't think would be of any use to anyone .. and you'd know why.
Date: 23rd March, 2010
Time: 1400 hours
Venue: IIM Calcutta (Joka, to be precise)
GD Topic: The art of deception is necessary for achievement

Am also trying to change a few more things to make the...
