I have always been very keen on facing challenges in life. I never took a back step when it came to my studies. When I was young I wasn’t very keen on studying, but at a point of time in my life i.e. in 6th std I felt like I was being looked down upon by my peers as I was barely passing my exams and then I buckled up my belt and studied so hard that I ended up topping my class in my 6th std final exams and all my friends were awestruck by the upset I caused and in 7th and 8th std I was good in studies but not the best. As I was getting very interested in looking into my studies I asked my parents to put me in a boarding school, which changed my life for good. After that, there was no looking back in terms of my studies.
I topped my 12th board exams with a percentage of 94% and joined one of the best engineering colleges in my state. But it wasn’t something I would want to brand myself for the rest of my life. Then I worked on my own start-up, which didn’t go as I planned it to be. But it was a huge learning experience for me and made me realize that I had a lot to learn in the days to come. My serious attempt for CAT was in 2015 in which I scored a decent percentile a was getting admitted into a good b-school, but it wasn't something I would be satisfied with, this zeal to work towards something important made me work harder and I landed in one of the top b-schools in the country. This is my version of the challenges I've faced in life, I have a long life ahead, hope that I would take over my challenges even better after my MBA, fingers crossed.
