SOP (Sleepless, Overloaded Perdition)

To all you folks out there, who are going to start their 2-year drill in LUMS MBA program, WELCOME!!! One year into the MBA program in LUMS, I feel I am eligible to share some of the jewels that would help you get through the times in the early period of your, hopefully successful, stay in LUMS. I wish and hope that all of you are able to take away what you came for here! Come 11th August, 2008, I am sure that you'll all be excited ... but for the next 10-11 days, its going to be ugly - so brace yourselves up!

  • During the SOPs [see the title :) ] ... you people will barely have any sleep, so to offset that lack of energy source, be sure to find yourselves an alternative. I used to take in a lot of junk food and pastries ... just to keep the ball rolling!
  • The key to success is not just to work hard, but work smart! Remember, a donkey is good only when it comes to pulling carts, even then it requires a beacon! You people are supposed to be "Global Leader", you not only need to direct yourselves, but the world (and yes, this is what you are going to hear during the whole of your MBA program :P)
  • Lastly, NO CHEATING!!!
Now, I don't want to give away all of it as it won't be fair to you people, 'cuz you know what "Life is a meal best served uncertain!"
