Excerpts from the interview with Ms. Michael Philomena Anthony:

About yourself:

I am from a small middle class family, of mom, dad and elder sister. When I entered the commerce stream, I was very much interested and keen to know more about accounts, so I decided to go for BAF. Till now I haven’t planned about future.

About being the topper:

Happy, motivated for my next semester.

Credit this success to:

Firstly God and then teachers and my parents without whom it won’t have been possible.

Studying from 1st day?

No, I am not so studious person. I started my studies during the exam. I attended every lecture in my college which helped me a lot.

Easy subjects?

Accounts are easy for me especially costing.

Answer writing strategy:

I write my answers precisely  and stick to what has been asked in question. I write answers in bullet points. Usually I don’t draw diagrams but if required then yes mostly I draw diagrams in theory subjects.

Studying using timetable?

No I usually don’t follow any timetable or set time because I love accounts so whenever I get time I solve sums.

Dealing with distractions?

I just take a nap or watch TV whenever I get bored with studies and after that with full concentration I get back to studies.

If made the Vice Chancellor of MU?

Well firstly I would like to update the syllabus and  I would like to give more importance to practical studies which is so much different from bookish one we must initiate the students to learn. Subjects in a practical way and not stick to outdated syllabus.

Success mantra?
Believe in yourself.

Lessons learned?
I have learned that through hard work and smart work u can achieve what u want don’t worry about competition just believe in yourself.

Message to BAF students
Enjoy your life but at the same time study and most important attend each and every lecture in college.
