I am Sayyed Rukhsar. I am very passionate towards my career and aim to lead a successful life in future.

When I came to know about my results, I was very happy. I can’t even express my feelings. It is like you are on the top of the world.

3) Whom will you credit your success to? 
I will give this credit first to my parents and my teachers who have helped me a lot.
4) Did you start preparing from the first day of your TY Sem V?
Not exactly. I didn’t start my studies from the first day of TY Sem 5 but when 2 months was left for the exam then I started studying.

5) How did you study for Sem V? 
Very badly from evening 5pm to 11pm continuously I used to study for Sem 5.

6) Which are the easy subjects in Sem V?

Financial Management and Logistics.

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

First I made the diagrams, then I wrote the answers in bullet points instead of paragraphs.

8) How do you crack case studies in theory and practical subjects?
It is very easy to solve because if we prepared then it doesn’t matter where the case study comes from.

9) Did you draw any diagram in any paper? Is it mandatory? Does it help to get more marks?
It is not mandatory but actually it helps a lot to score well in exams.
10)Any specific study pattern adopted i.e. timetable / how many hours per subject per day etc.?
If you are studying from the starting of 5^th Semester exam then you have to study atleast for 3 hours a day.

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

If we are focused on our studies, it doesn’t matter who is distracting you.
12) If you are made the Vice Chancellor of Mumbai University, what changes would you like to initiate in Indian education system?
First of all, I want to change the examiners who actually check our papers. They should be more experienced people.

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?

I really want to tell them that it doesn’t matter where you come from if you are not from English medium or anything, just believe in yourself that you are the only one who is fighting only for you.
14) Through this struggle and success, what have you learned? What is the wisdom of life and competition? 

In life, lot of competition is there. We just have to keep fighting with them.

You all are doing well. Hope you will help us in future.
