"Akash" visits earth


“Idiot ways to crack CAT hits Allahabad”

Mr. Akash Gautam, International level PDP trainer and Limca Book Record holder for excellence in English vocabulary held a seminar titled “Idiot ways to crack CAT” on 26 July 2010 at K.P. Community Center, targeting CAT 2010 and 2011 specifically. This Mega event was held under the aegis of Career Launcher Allahabad.

Veni-Vidi-Vici’. He came, he saw and he conquered. Allahabad was witness to an event of awesome magnitude for the third year running. For students who are used to dull, dreary and drab seminars, it was an afternoon which would be etched firmly in their minds forever. Akash gave such amazing tips on the learning and the retention process, that it sent the confidence of the students soaring. That preparation for CAT could be so much fun, was incomprehensible for most students; that is until now. The signature tune of ‘All iz well electrified the atmosphere and made the entire ambience rocking, since the overwhelming majority of the audience consisted of the generation next. With his characteristic wit, he kept the audience in splits. To keep an impatient generation captive for close to four hours was an achievement in itself. The entire hall was chock-a-bloc with students with even standing place at a premium. A conservative estimate put it at more than a thousand students.

Akash shared with the students 7 Mantras to succeed in CAT. These mantras have been highly researched by Career Launcher, the premium MBA entrance preparation institution, after having trained more than 10 lakh MBA aspirants in the last 15 years. These mantras are not known normally and gave an inside view on the strategies to combat the CAT. The whole philosophy behind the seminar was to enjoy the preparation for CAT. Career Launcher was the trail blazer in initializing the concept of Edutainment in the classroom, where the emphasis was on students who were trained and happy. After all, happy people are more successful too. Getting accustomed to CAT reading, planning, time management, innovation, positive thinking, along with regular testing and strong vocabulary, were some main points which were discussed for the CAT entrance. In 2008 and 2009, Career launcher Allahabad had organised similar events ‘Jab we CAT’ and “Vocab ki Dhan te nan” for the students of CAT 2008 & CAT 2009 respectively. Seeing the stupendous success of that event, this year’s event was planned covering a wider range of topics.

The entire event was the brainchild of Mr. Gaurav Agarwal, Director, Career launcher Allahabad and organised by Mr. Sanjeev Mishra, Head of Location. The host for the seminar was Mr. Ajoy Chakraborty, Head of Corporate Communications, Career launcher Allahabad.

Sorry guys, was in self-induced hibernation for a while, so missed updating you on several things that have happened in the last few months at CL Allahabad. So without further ado, here's the latest that's happening at CLA...



CAREER LAUNCHER ALLAHABAD FELICITATES RECORD BREAKING LAW SCHOOL ACHIEVERS AT VIDHI-2010

Successful students accompanied by their proud parents, past students, staff of CL Allahabad and a broad cross section of the society were witness to a that was held at Hotel Kanhashyamon 24th June 2010 for the sharp lawyers and judges of the future, namely the Law School achievers who appeared for CLAT-10 and other similar entrance tests this year. The common thread was that all these successful aspirants were part of LST-09/10, a special prep course run by Career Launcher. The LSTians from CL Allahabad who did us proud are Utkarsh Srivastava who got calls from NUJS Kolkata & NLIU Bhopal, Mohit Maheshwari from NLU Jodhpur, Varun Srivastava from NLU Jodhpur & Symbiosis Pune, Vibhor Raj and Agrima from RGNLU Patiala, Symbiosis Pune & NLU Orissa, Shreya Gupta from CNLU Patna, Aakash Priyadarshi from RMLNLU Lucknow, Kumar Shreshta, Garima Singh, Swatantra Rai, Animesh Bhaskar Tripathi from NLU Orissa, Anubhav Verma, Abhinav Gaur, Meetali Agarwal, Saumya Srivastava, Mehul Khare, Ritvika from Symbiosis Pune, Shume Banerji, Priyam Nigam, Vishal Shukla, Isha Pandey, Nikita Tandon and Sagar Mehrotra from UPES Dehradun, Mandvi Malviya, Abhishek Gupta, Piyush Kumar Mishra from Indraprastha University Delhi, Tanisha Jahangir & Nidhi Tiwari from Amity Law College, Noida.

The success of these aspirants have proved two things beyond doubt, one that Career Launcher’s LST Prep Programme is the best if one wants to join Law School and two that CLAT and similar examinations are at par with MBA. In fact the new mantra is “CLAT IS THE NEW MBA”, underlying the importance of considering this field as the most promising and the most exciting among all the different career options in today’s era.

The Chief Guest at the function was Mr. Sanjay Prasad (IAS), the District Magistrate of Allahabad. Mr. Prasad exhorted the students to work hard and try and make both quantitative and qualitative changes in the system to make the world a better place for the future generations.

Special mention should be made here of the Head of Location CL Allahabad Mr. Sanjeev Mishra and his dedicated team members Mr. Shashank Somvanshi, Mr. Ajoy Chakraborty & Mr. Shashank Singhal, without whose dedicated efforts this would not have been possible. Their scientific and logical approach in transferring their content and the skills to the students has been appreciated by all and sundry. They have left no stones unturned in grooming the future of our students.

The valuable contribution in this direction by our Director Mr. Gaurav Agarwal can hardly be overemphasized. His keen foresight coupled with ambitious aspirations has led Career Launcher to the unprecedented heights at which the esteemed institute stands in this city of learning.
