I completed my ISC in commerce, having an interest for management I decided to pursue my studies in Management. I’m persevering and committed in whatever task I take up or any task that is assigned to me.

4) Did you start preparing from the first day of your TY Sem V?
4) Honestly, I did not start studying from the very first day. I studied regularly for all the tests and preliminary exams held in college which helped me prepare for the university exams better.
5) How did you study for Sem V?
5) I attended all the lectures and paid complete attention to what was being taught in class.I also did a little bit of studying everyday.
6) Which are the easy subjects in Sem V?
6) All the subjects are easy if they are understood well. Understanding the concepts is important for theory subjects, once the concepts are known then the answers are easy to elaborate.
7) Any special way of writing the answers? Do you write answers in bullet points or in paragraphs?
7) It’s important to present your answers well as it helps examiners to access your paper better. I write my answers in bullet points. To every answer I add an introduction and conclusion and give examples where ever possible. I also underline the key words.
8) How do you crack case studies in theory and practical subjects?
8) Case studies need to be read first and understood and then accordingly link the concepts of the subject to the case study given.
9) Did you draw any diagram in any paper? Is it mandatory? Does it help to get more marks?
9) Yes, I always try to draw diagrams where ever possible. With the help of diagrams the examiner is aware that the concepts are clear. According to me diagrams can help you fetch more marks and it gives you an edge over the others.
10)Any specific study pattern adopted i.e. timetable / how many hours per subject per day etc.?
10) I prepare a study timetable and study accordingly. I always set a daily target for me to achieve.
11) How do you fight against mood swings and distractions during exam preparation?
1) It is natural to get panicky and nervous before exams. I believe in trusting in yourself. It’s always better to study regularly and sincerely to build up your confidence.
12) If you are made the Vice Chancellor of Mumbai University, what changes would you like to initiate in Indian education system?
12) The changes that I would like to bring about is to make the exams more student friendly and add more practical aspects rather than theoretical subjects.
13) Many students prepare sincerely but constantly live under fear that they are not from big college / not from English medium and eventually lose confidence. What message would you like to these students?
13) “When a balloon rises the colour doesn’t help it to rise it’s what inside the balloon that matter the most and helps it to rise.” Therefore College doesn’t matter, what is inside you and your hardwork and determination to succeed is important and what matters. Many greats have passed out from ordinary colleges.
14) Through this struggle and success, what have you learned? What is the wisdom of life and competition?
14) To win some you got to lose some and for this sacrifices are important. In order to achieve something you have to have the determination to do so. “Each morning when I wake up I don’t strive to be better than anybody else rather i strive to be better than the old me!”
Thank you 🙂
