This was the last of the core terms at ISB. As in the previous 3 terms there was one person who was the highlight of the term and this time it was Subra. Invst Analysis lectures were real fun and all credit to Subra and his style of teaching. One needs to attend a lecture to believe it and also listen him in "Shudh Hindi"

GSBC was also interesting, though Mudit was a bit controversial I liked his thought provoking habit of teaching. Got a glimpse of political economics behind many decisions that we see in day to day life. Prof Shiva Kumar's lecture of population was very serious and heavy. I understood the importance of meaning "population control" and why one should never use such a term. It was also insightful to know the impact of one child policy in China.

Potential consultants started some warm up for placement preparation. I was not among them and hence had a relaxed life. I started my resume preparation and was able to complete it by end of term 4.
