Time Management

From the beginning I have a unique inclination to prioritize my longterm needs. Today's longterm need will be next year short term need. But during this process I put baby steps along my journey to full fill my long term needs. Thus my short term needs which were once long term needs gets scheduled on time without conflicting with my long term needs. Hope it make sense.

Challenges facing by students

A clear vision. Often students are flooded with information from many sources. Ability to clearly see the difference between different sources and their context is what makes a student successful in accomplishing his task.

Most flourishing college experience

As a dual degree student,I am still building my dreams through knowledge acquired from different experiences. Even though I do not have one tangible experience to quote, I consider gathering right amount of knowledge from genuine resources to start a business through interaction with students, professors and industry experts is one of the most rewarding experience for me at CMU.

Additional information

Students should be able to think beyond the scope of the class. Think Big. Most of the class room experience limits the student environment for the grades or exams. The one who thinks beyond school , class and grades is sure to gonna reach success early on.
