AIM Blogs at the Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs for 2009 Writing Project

By -
I'm pleased to share that I nominated several blogs by AIM folks for the Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs for 2009. The writing project is an initiative to showcase new blogs and emerging bloggers.

Here are some of my nominations:

  • The AIM Blog - This is the official Asian Institute of Management blog maintained by folks at marketing. This blog primarily contains updates about activities at the institute, but I also contribute there occasionally for some additional perspective.
  • Ken Do This - MBA Cohort 2's Kenneth Reyes-Lao's blog on personal stuff, with lots of AIM experiences.
  • Life's Quiet Times - My former classmate Faye Abis shares her spiritual reflections.
  • WAC'd - MBA 2007 alum John Wesley Bayot's whimsical takes on business, personal musings, and AIM life. Read his post about the AIM Written Analysis of Cases. It's a fun read. :)
  • Think Again - Current MBA Student Ajit Jagan frequently blogs about stuff that mirror his wide interests.
  • Internet Marketing Playbook - This is the class blog for the "Winning Internet Marketing Strategies and Tactics" course here at AIM.
  • Regnard Raquedan: Self-Titled - I created this blog as a sort of the "logical" sequel to The AIM Blogger as it is about personal musings about anything. 
As you can see, AIM folks have been blogging actively as of late and I hope you can show your support to these blogs. :)

Making the Grade

Grades are out! Grades for all but one subject have been released and if you look at my potential GPA so far, it falls in the "Satisfactory" band. (I've made a post regarding the grading system in the Asian Institute of Management, you might want to take a look.) By AIM standards, that means I'm average. But does that tell the whole story? Does that mean I'm your "average" MBA student? I've done some analysis The school segments the MBA core subjects in two major areas-- Quantitative and Qualitative subjects. Quantitative subjects include: Language of Business (LOB) Economics (ECO) Quantitative Analysis (QA) Financial Management 1 (FM1) Financial Management 2 (FM2) Management of Cost and Profit (MCP) Management Control Systems (MCS) The Qualitative subjects include: Human Behavior in Organization (HBO) Management Communication (MC) Marketing Management (MM) Operations Management (OM) General Management & Ethics (GME) Asian Business Systems (ABS)

Getting Admitted to the MBA Program

By -
Let backtrack a bit: How was I able to get admitted to the Asian Institute of Management (AIM)? The admission process is a relatively brief process, but rigorous nonetheless. The AIM Website outlines the procedure on how to apply and the requirements as well. However, I found some old content at the AIM site that might get some users confused. But in spite of that, my experience in applying was a very smooth and hassle-free one. I made sure that I had the following accomplished: Application Form - This can be downloaded online . The application form is very long and has 14 essay questions! It is better to answer the essay questions briefly and direct to the point. Official Transcripts - This is my undergraduate transcript from the University of the Philippines - Diliman . Academic Recommendation Letter - I had a former professor of mine from the Ateneo Graduate School of Business accomplish this one. Professional Recommendation Letter - I asked a former superior make a recommenda

My Experience with the Embassy of India in Manila

Are you a Filipino going to India? Be warned. You may be in for a great deal of frustration. I've been spending the past week arranging my visa for my Action Consultancy (AC) in India. (The AC is equivalent to AIM's industry internship for its MBA students; I'll blog more about this in future posts). The frustration has really been mounting because of the very confusing and Byzantine system of the Indian embassy here in the Philippines. First point of frustration: the customer service. I initially called the embassy to clarify the requirements and procedures. The embassy has an automated answering system that has a selection where a caller can get an itemized list of requirements. That's all. No information of procedures, steps or guidelines. I selected the option to talk to a staff member and when I asked my query, she told me I'll find everything I need at the Indian Embassy website . If you look at the site, there are some information, but not the ones I'm lo
