B schools ranking season!!

There is this particular time of the year, close to monsoon season when dogs start mating and everyone else starts releasing their own lists of top B schools of India. How do we lesser mortals, the non-mba's know? Because our facebook walls are plastered with everyone from that college, or for that matter any random person whose neighbor's son was bitten by a dog outside that b-school gates, starts posting the link to that article with a small cutie pie message "My B School ranks 9th in the India's top kick ass B Schools cum pubs" rankings! Woohoo! Last year it was faaaar below at 10!!

I have never seen this crazy craze in engineering college kids, none so ever in doctors! Its just the MBA kids going ga ga over stupid rankings! I even have a friend, who currently lives in the jungles of Tanzania, who used to write emails fulllll one sentence long, and his email signature was precisely 18 lines long!! Even if his college's building is demolished by MCD (or whatever is MCD of Mumbai is) for illegal construction, he will add that link to his email signature, pointing in bold flashy font - "Look my college is all over newspapers today!"

Dude, nor will your company increase your package, nor will your firangi client count you as human, and nor will some cute chick from your mba class 'like' that status message of yours while commenting on it "i so so so miss those days, when u used to stalk me, while i completely ignored u"!!

Dont these fellows know that all of these rankings are rigged? Honey, its all about money! So kids, the next time you see such a dumb-ster uncle or aunty posting such stupid things on your facebook news feed, go and paste the link to this article over there, and do write a short cutie pie message also :P (something like .. kutte, main tera khoon pee jaunga .. will also do.... :D

cudnt help posting my comment:

1. 100 points to u for calling non MBAs as lesser mortal. If people can put status msg realted to rakhi sawant, raj thackery, rains, weather in delhi etc etc on public forums, then each and every MBA has all the rights the wear the rank of his/her college proudly on his/her sleeve in any public forum, and obviously the pride associated with that is difficult for lesser mortals to understand.
2. Public forums have kept gaining popularity as we have graduted and then post graduated and so on...when we were in BHU, the craze and awareness, both were less. Now I can even see school students updating their fb walls etc with school ranking, with sports, debates competitions etc.
3. Company package is a silly silly thing, more then 90% of companies have a standard package for all Tier-1 BSchools. Those already in that league need not worry about packages.
4. BSchools do not have clients...neither desi or firangi...
5. If u can not lay ur hand on a chick/dude on ur class during ur MBA, then u can not do it afterwards...irrespective on no of likes or diskes; ;)
6. If rankings are rigged (every nihilist feels that), then me and my college are better in doing that too...
7. Did we ever care about uncles and aunties when they failed to recognise BHU or unintentionally compared it with some second or third rung engg college?

kaminey tere blog se lamba to mera reply ho gaya. everything has a purpose, so does the rankings. and about ur tanzanian friend...mil tu saale, fir batata hun :)
