How you overcame challenges to achieve your ambition? - SCMHRD

The two important aspects which define a person are challenges he faced in his life and how he cope with his failures. Success is only a by-product of these two factors. The challenge that I took in my life was to secure an admission in one of the top premier business schools. During my preparatory phase, I was working as a software developer. During which I used to have late-night telephonic meetings with our onsite team for project discussions. For the first few months of my preparation, I had decided to work and prepare simultaneously but as the workload was increasing I decided to focus completely on my work and decided to give my mocks during my weekends, which was a mistake. But as the scores came down and I had made up my mind to resign after the completion of initial project delivery. Post which, I had 2 months of preparation by creating a strategic plan so that I could improve on my scores. Slowly I could see improvement in my scores but during the D-Day, I could not perform well and CAT 2018 became a disaster. Later on, I decided to give my 100% for SNAP 18 in which I could perform well. Then I decided to start my preparatory phase for GE-PI-WAT process. After a good round of interview and group activity process, I could attain admission in SCMHRD, Pune in the first merit list. The best part of this entire journey was that I never gave up on the challenge I took and picked myself up during the rough times.
