As promised, we are back with the next mail on our thoughts as student Company Secretaries. When we passed our degree examinations each year with flying colors each time atleast standing one among the top five in the entire batch in our colleges, we kept wondering why the same magic did not work with CS. We always thought the course is extremely tough to clear and hence we were unable to make it with a 100% success rate.
We realized we needed someone to guide us to approach the exams the right way. Few of us joined classes for a few subjects which we thought would help us. Joining classes helped us follow an organized pattern of studying. We took up early morning classes which made us start our day earlier which would not have been the scenario had we studied on our own. Moreover, we gained inspiration and competitive spirit looking at many other budding professionals who attended the same coaching classes. Of course there were a determined lot who decided to time table their studies and followed the do it yourself techniques. There were successful people from both arenas. This is a subjective issue and it is for the student to decide on which course to follow depending upon his/her requirements and commitments.
One noticeable difference we found in our approach to Degree and Professional examinations was that for a Degree examination we studied all throughout the year with coaching all around, tests, mid term examinations and preparatory exams before we face the final examinations – All these definitely contributed to the success. Coaching classes gave us this advantage. We studies under compulsion of tests and examinations. We acknowledge that professional examinations are tougher, but if you can manage to score an 80% in a Bachelors Degree, scoring a 50% in CS should not be tough.
It is our advice to students to be persistent in their efforts and irrespective of whether you take coaching or not, ensure that you put in few hours of continuous effort and also test.
