So you have seen that magnificent IIM-A campus so many times. You have seen all those hot shot MBA’s strut their stuff. But did you know there is a hilarious side to all the serious academics and jargon they spew?

Follow a student’s life on campus, as he swings from one mess to the next in this hilarious new novel.

“Second Degree” is about life in that giant sprawling pressure-cooker called the Indian Institute of Management at Ahmedabad.

Baked by the hot Gujarat sun, and under constant bombardment of examinations, assignment submissions and quizzes – life can be quite “interesting” for the unprepared within the hallowed hallways of the great institute. This is exactly what happens to Prashant, as he discovers that the glory of getting admission to IIM-A is short lived when the heat is really turned on by the faculty.

Prashant, struggles with everything from Finance and Quantitative Techniques to Interpersonal Relationships in his stint on campus. He emerges from the course richer by a few great friends, wiser by several degrees and poorer by several lakhs in terms of the education loans he needs to payback.

Follow the life of a twenty eight year old misfit as he stumbles from one mess to the next in the unforgiving and scorching pace at IIM-A!

Rashmi Bansal, author of the Mega Best Seller “Stay Hungry Stay Foolish” has written the foreword to this book and says ”…Read this racy, pacy, funny, punny, free flowing tribute to my favourite campus in the world.”
