What was your rough timetable at IIT Bombay?

In the first year, your timetable at IIT Bombay would typically look like this:

• Waking up at 8 am.
• Getting ready quickly and have breakfast.
• Attending morning classes.
• Resting for 1-2 hours till the next class.
• Attending classes till afternoon.
• Having lunch at the canteen.
• Taking teaching assistantship duty by taking labs to second and third-year students until evening.
• Coming back to the hostel.
• Browsing the internet, watch movies, finish assignments, chat with friends or engage in some other activity.
• Sleeping at around 12 am or so.

However, your second year would be very different since you don't have classes for your masters in the second year. Instead, your schedule would look more like this:

• Going to the lab (professor's cabin) and sitting until you feel like going to the hostel.
• Going to the canteen for food and coming back to the lab to do some work.
• Attempting Hacker Rank mathematics problems for nearly 3 months.
• Working hard on your dissertation by sleeping many days in the lab itself (which turns out to be very fun, though!)
• Every day would be almost the same: Either sitting in the hostel or the cabin since you will have no classes and have to work on your own.
