You were brought in this world, without your consent, forced to learn languages and study subjects you never wanted to, put through a screening process where the gap in 90% and 89.99% is unimaginable, and finally your future will be decided based on a few pieces of paper. Somewhere along this process, our voice was lost, until engineering hit me.
Engineering life taught me one thing more than anything else, question yourself, your existence, your life. That there is a circle of life and if you break it your fate will eventually catch up. Every time I use to do something that would break away from the usual circle, there was a force that would pull me back into it. I resisted, i fought, and i gave up. Being unhappy about the subjects and eventually just getting passing marks became the norm. But along with several other questions what engineering also taught me is to ask about my future.
With average marks in graduation, the future looked dark. I analysed as to what led me to this stage? What is that force? What was pulling me down? And the answer was the force was nothing else than myself. It was I who was pulling myself down. I underestimated my potential and gave in to the circumstances. After i realized that, i said to myself to never let anything ever demotivate me. In my last semester i scored the highest marks, took admission for CAT coaching classes without my parents consent and told them later. They saw that their whining kid has afterall grown up. I scored 95.5 percentile in CAT 2018
