Getting accepted into Universal Business School (UBS), Mumbai was the turning point of my life. Growing up and getting my primary and secondary education in a Marathi medium school in the city of Nashik had its own benefits but also a few difficulties. Dedication and sincerity were instilled in right along with an abundance of self-doubt. Will I be accepted in this professional world? Will I be laughed at?
