In sem 5 we have 5 practical subjects and 1 theory. For practical subject I made sure that my concepts are very much clear and for theory subjects i didn’t mug up answers just understood what the answer is all about.

6) Which are the easy subjects in Sem V?
I feel all practical subjects are easy but one has to be conceptually very clear.

I used to start my answer with definition and continue my answer in bullet points as it gives much better presentation and always end answer with conclusion. Also I used to highlight important words and sentence.

We don’t have case study in sem 5 in any of the subject.

I was affected by mood swings and to avoid that i used to listen to music that refreshes me to continue with my study.

12) If you are made the Vice Chancellor of Mumbai University, what changes would you like to initiate in Indian education system?
I will make it mandatory to conduct presentations for student so that it gives chance to students for enhancing their communication and presentation skills rather than focusing on only theoretical aspect.

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?
It does not matter from which college you are or from which medium you had studied. It all depends on what you think of yourself and how much confidence you have in yourself. That is all what makes you. If you work hard and treat yourself capable no one can stop you from achieving your target.

  14) Through this struggle and success, what have you learned? What is the wisdom of life and competition?
I have learned that hard work is always appreciated. Just identify the opportunity and make best of it. One should always remember “when the time to perform arrives, the time to prepare has gone.”

15) Your feedback for BAF.co.in?
This site is doing great work. It helps a lot to new comers in getting knowledge of all degree courses so that they can select the one which suits them the best.
