Interview with Deepika Yadav, TYBMS Sem 5 Topper 2013-14, Saket College who scored 73.50%

How does it feel to be a Topper in the university exams? Whom will you credit your success to? What was your success mantra?

I am feeling like dream come true and all credit goes to my mom as she supports me a lot. She is one of my success mantra.

Did you prepare any timetable and please share your study strategy/exam tips to crack each subject of sem 5?

No, I didn’t prepare any kind of timetable. Whatever you know, only write those things in the exam. Highlight the answers by underlining it.

Do you think BMS student require coaching classes or is self-study enough? Had you joined any coaching class for a particular subject?

Both self practice and coaching classes are required. We can’t depend on self-studies completely as we don’t know if we are studying right or wrong.

Can you list the textbooks you referred for all subjects?

Rishab publication textbooks.

Which was your worst paper? Why? Which was your best paper? Why?

 My worst paper was Financial Management. I don’t need to explain why it is the worst paper as I think whole university students know about it. Best paper was logistics because it is my favorite subject and I got 53 out of 60 marks (and became the Logistics topper in Kalyan)

Today, we often come across students committing suicide out of failure, depression or tension of exams. What do you have to say about this? Did you use any special techniques for stress management?

For people who are committing suicide only because of failure, please don’t do this as these are silly reasons. Give your best and don’t expect you will get good. Hangout with friends and do a lot of fun with your friends.This is the one thing you will get relief and make your mind fresh. Do whatever you want in your life and don’t think about results. This is my life funda. Friends and my mom are more important for my life.

The Black Book project contributing a significant part to the percentage, please share the experiences you had during the preparation of the project and how has it benefited you.

No, black book project did not contribute a single mark in my results. It was OK type and neither good nor bad.

Did you pursue any additional courses/ internships alongside BMS? What are your future plans?

Alongwith studies, I am doing events side by side so that I can earn some money and help to my mom.

Any tips and advises for your juniors?

One advice do whatever you want in your life. Marks doesn’t matter for any success. If you have any talent, work on that talent and don’t run for good marks.
