Tell us about yourself?

Born in Nagpur but brought up in Mumbai, A football fanatic, A die hard Manchester united fan, love to try out different foods, pro at fifa, bike rider.. The reason why I joined BMS is because it offers a lot of options to a student in the future be it wanting to do law, be in the administrative or even joining the corporate. It touches on a lot of subjects each semester which becomes easier for a student to choose what interests him or her. I plan to work for a year or two in a corporate either in the finance or supply chain department and then do my post graduate after gaining some work experience

 

How does it feel to be a Topper of the college in TY Sem V exams?

Happy at the same time weird… topping is not my primary motive to study.. learning and doing well is.

 

Whom will you credit your success to?

My department faculty who helped all the students ensure they were well prepped, my family for giving the freedom to do what i want and how i want and my friends ofcourse who not only helped me academically but also have a lot of fun during the semester.

 

Did you start preparing from the first day of your TY Sem V?

No way!… But when i did i assured i was focused when I was studying

 

How did you study for Sem V?

Keep reading, writing and memorising the important points and timely breaks required by going out and not sitting at home

All accounts and maths subjects needs practice

Theory subjects try and remember main points and most of the major points are common

 

Which are the easy subjects in Sem V?

Probably Service sector management, Human resource management and Business ethics

 

Any special way of writing the answers? Do you write answers in bullet points or in paragraphs?

Yes points and paragraphs probably a major liking for the examiners. Examples is a must

 

How do you crack case studies in theory and practical subjects?

For case studies we need to know the subject and try and connect it with the theory matter.

 

Did you draw any diagram in any paper? Is it mandatory? Does it help to get more marks?

Diagrams is mandatory for certain answers.. on the contrary the examiner will know that the student understands the answer and probably that gives and edge.

 

Any specific study pattern adopted i.e. timetable / how many hours per subject per day etc.?                           Yes 2 hours per subject and 2 subjects a day, start with the toughest subject

 

How do you fight against mood swings and distractions during exam preparation?                         

Go out for recreation with friends or family or just take a nap

 

If you are made the Vice Chancellor of Mumbai University, what changes would you like to initiate in Indian education system?

More practical knowledge, more of hands on job experience, in the end what you do in the field and how you apply your theoretical knowledge on the job matters.

 

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?

Read books, try and make friends and communicate. Sitting alone and secluded never helps. Developing people skills eventually helps you stand out in the crowd

 

Through this struggle and success, what have you learned? What is the wisdom of life and competition?

Work smart and focus on your results be it completing a project or winning a game. Study smart, extracurricular activities should be taken part in as it develops the personality. All the best.
