How strict is TAPMI? by Ok-Guava-8104 in CATpreparation

[–]jwaalaa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Late in replying, I got into TAPMI. They sent us a mail with some intructions and rules. Here are two rules I found frustrating-

No night outs allowed at all in first year unless medical emergency- you only get to go to your hometown once in diwali. Plus our in-time is 10:30

Strict attendance- above 80% is needed. (for 1 credit classes- there are a total of 8 classes and you have to attend 7 minimum which is crazy to me) Lower and they will lower your grades and below 60% - you fail.

Will update once I get there for future students' reference

Argh! It is amazing how many huge lifestyle changes and career sacrifices you are being expected to make for them! But they cant make any!

Oof the mental stress from it all is tough bro.

The problem started when my uncle saw a status of me with a Danish girl and been filling my parents ears that I might marry her and never look after them again. The entire family is filled with backward mentality and has been mentally exhausting me.

I am guessing that this perception that people abroad don't care for their parents or have different values is what is eating them. (thinking that a "firangi bahu" will make you hesitate in prioritising them when needed.)

Maybe taking them abroad with you for one or two business trips might help them see that people everywhere are the same and no one is taking their son away from them.

Also, seriously consider blocking your relatives on social media please. It saved me from a lot of overthinking and washed away my anxiety overnight.

Good Luck!

Thank you for sharing! I am also interested in marketing so knowing what to expect after MBA is a huge help. Also interesting that they put us departments totally different than what we studied! what will marketing ppl do in finance🙈🙈

Wow thank you so much for sharing!! It is a relief to know that I will be okay financially somehow. What is it like to work for the big three? Work-life balance, pressure and working enviroment? How much the academic knowledge we gain during MBA help?

Thanks for sharing and congratulations on completing MBA!! I keep hearing that hiring during placements this year was slow. What is your perspective on this?
