From being an Aspirant to being the Student President of the College - Rohan Bharaj's Story

From being an Aspirant to being the Student President of the College - Rohan Bharaj's Story

I remember the days when I used to prepare hard for SNAP. I gave it all because I wanted nothing less than one among the top 3 Symbiosis colleges. Having participated in number of quiz competitions and winning most of them, I knew I had an edge in GK section. I put more attention on logical reasoning as its weightage is more in SNAP. Fast forwarding to the results day – I couldn’t hit a century; my wicket dropped in nervous nineties but I managed to clear cutoffs of SIBM Bengaluru and SIIB Pune. I had scheduled SIIB interview earlier so that I have some lead before my SIBMB interview. Like all Indian families, my family too insisted me to join SIIB Pune so that I being a Mumbai resident can stay close to them, but I was very determined about my decision. I was astonished to see the growth of this college – how in just 7 years it was comparable to other 20-30 years old colleges of India. I dug deep, talked to alumni, and teachers at my coaching center and all of them reinforced my decision to go with SIBMB.

My Tryst With The Feline - Abhijit Routray's CAT Success Story

Have you ever had moments in your life where you had found yourself in a proverbial 'back against the wall' situation and you thought that it couldn't get any worse? And that just as you thought of fighting back, Murphy's law decided to go bonkers on you? Yes, that's how it all started for me. As typical as they get. A supposedly 'good student' after high school who supposedly lost his way in between. Except, I didn't lose shit (Oops! No disclaimer. But if you're reading this, you're old enough anyway). I knew I was not going anywhere but I continued anyway. There was this youthful attraction towards being a rebel and the sheer fun of the free fall I was enjoying. Looking back, I realised I was not a rebel, not by a long shot. Rebels have a cause and mine, apparently, was self sabotage.

The mounting tension of the results for the colleges, which one to choose, location, placement or faculty maddening to quite an extent.
