Our class had a little photo session yesterday where we were just asked to come in casual attire. The photos were taken at the Zen Garden of the Asian Institute of Management campus.

Hi Regnard! Just wanted to say that you've got a nice, informative blog here. I actually know two (maybe three if the third person is who I think he is) people in your batch, but due to having lost touch with one, and the other one being extremely silent on all matters AIM (that person does tend to separate his AIM life from his "outside" life), I actually learned more about what it takes to be an AIM student through your blog than through my friends. ^_^

I'm considering AIM for my MBA school next year (though my friend has been discouraging me on that end, must be because of the intense workload you guys have to go through before graduating), so your blog's been a definite help.

P.S. Why no names on the class pic though? Would be more fun if your readers could identify who's who in your batch.

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...

AIM, EQUIS & AACSB

By -
Take note of this post's title because that may the last time those three will appear together. The news of AIM losing the European Foundation for Management Development (EMFD) EQUIS accreditation and the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business ( AACSB ) International accreditation almost simultaneously has reached the media. A Business story from the Manila Standard Today entitled " Short of AIM " discloses that AIM lost the EQUIS and let the AACSB accreditations in the wake of events critical to the school. From the article: According to the grapevine, AIM no longer sought to renew the American accreditation and allowed it to lapse this year after having been informed of the European setback. The loss of the industry accreditation comes not only as AIM celebrates its 40th anniversary but also at a time when many of its board of trustees, including chairman Jose Cuisia Jr. and vice chairman Armin Luistro, are leading protest actions against Gloria Maca...
