CONNECTED WITH MY LIFE
I prefer buying Peter England clothes because they not just very comfortable, but also because Peter England has decent collection of clothes. I am always satisfied with my choice of buying my clothes from Peter England.
I have recently build my home and we used UltraTech cement during the construction of the house.
I and my father always prefer Van Heusen when it comes to buying formal wear because Van Heusen has nice stuff and also high class status attached to it.
PART-B (HOW I OVERCAME MY BIGGEST CHALLENGE)
It was 15 October 2018 when I made my plan to go for MBA and when I approached MBA entrance coaching institutes, they said it was very late and suggested me to leave CAT 2018 and focus on CAT 2019 because by that time, students had finished their entire course and were giving mocks. I could not think of waiting an year for getting into a b-school and achieve my goal of becoming a marketing manager. So, I decided to give CAT 2018 itself and start preparing with all devotion and commitment on my own. I bought second hand books of the same institute from OLX and made some daily and weekly achievable targets. I was determined to crack CAT exam and for that, I was ready to give away everything. I compromised on every occasion, I did not celebrated Diwali ,my birthday or any other occasion. I used to check up my targets if I achieved them or not, I had no regulating authority over me, I was just committed to myself and that made me more focussed because I had to give myself an answer for the shortfall. I gave enough tests to measure my performance and then, the test day came. I gave my best shot with all presence of mind, and when the results arrived after 2 months, I was extremely happy to see 95.48 percentile in CAT which was a very good score in comparison to students who studied 1-2 years for cracking this exam. I managed to get a decent number of calls from various IIM’S, IMT among other big colleges. I prepared hard to give my best foot forward in the further rounds of selection process and finally, made it to IMT Ghaziabad that is often called Mecca of Marketing.
