SNAPSHOTS FROM HELL
I feel like moving to California and enrolling into Stanford because of the book. Maybe the author has tried to use reverse pschyology . Anyways I loved it........can relate to a lot of things even though Welingkar is not as severe as Stanford, but it is still a B-School.

And if your wondering what I am blabbering on abt the book SNAPSHOTS FROM HELL is about the experiences of a poet called Peter Robinson at Stanford University's Business School.Why is he called a poet? because compared most of his peers in his class he has never been exposed to Business and Numbers and so he and all the people like him are called poets. Right from Math Boot camp till the end when he gets his first job you cannot put the book down. His classmates are specially interesting and that's basically what B-School is about. The more interesting your classmates are the better is your learning. His book talks about how B-School makes you question yourself, the fast pace of the curricula and the special issues women face. Not to mention the accomplished teachers and the unique grading system. California sounds like a lovely place and at the end everyone would like to settle there. Even the author eventually settles there after marrying his sweet heart.
With humour and sensitivity he candidly describes a lot of real issues on the campus.These issues are universal and even though he had enrolled in 1991 for the course the issues are still very much relevant.I would especially recommend it for MBA aspirants or anyone even remotely connected to Business school
