TYBMS SEM 6 Session - Join in My Journey to Excellence

parv

Parvathy A
19th February, 2010
We students got official holiday from our college. What’s so special about this day?
Hmm…yeah.. today is Chatrapati Shivaji Jayanti… true…Even our lecturers told they r nt interested in takin extra lecs.
From the morning, I was feelin damn bored as I didn’t meet up my frnds..
Ws surfin on net.. thought jst to login to MP…
Was going thru different forums…. Then thought of takin a look to our last timetable of BMS….ie. the university timetable of sem 6.
Was surprised to see the date….19th april…
I was aware of the exam dates… bt jst to knw tht exactly only 2 months to go ws quite shockin n surprising….
Dimaag mein chal raha tha… kya karu … kaise padhai start karu…. Kuch toh plan karna hi padega..
Last semester hai…my fav BMS ka last exams hai…jiske liye if I devote a little bit time of my whole 24hrs day… I can have good results…
On the second thought,…. I also felt tht….only last 2 months of my college… wherein I still feel tht I haven’t enjoyed my collge life..
Wht can I do? I wanna enjoy also… at the same time m tensed…. Tht this sem is really crucial as well as imp….as KTs are not allowed….and atleast jo 5 sem mein nahi kiya… i.e.SINCERE STUDIES… wo yeh sem mein kiya toh… may be I can atleast say proudly tht I m a BMS graduate… wid good %.. or atleast wid good memories of my subjects…
Hmm… mere HERO AAMIR (rancho baba ya phunsuk vangdu) ne toh kaha hai ki marks ke liye mat padhai karo… excellence ke liye padho… samajhke padho…ratta mat maaro….
All these thoughts were forcing me to do something concrete… then I remembered… AAL IZZ WELL….
After all this drama, I hv decided to study 5 questions of 3 subjects daily…. Isn’t it a nice idea?
QMB wud be a daily practice…as wo subj hai hi us layak.
My current fav is SSM n 2nd fav is IMTP.
1st day we wud tk up SSM, IMTP, MR (QMB daily prac)
2nd day the other subjects wud be IF, ENTREP, QMB

Re: tybms sem 6 plans

This is an amazing initiative. Was just wondering how difficult it would be to type out the answers to these 5 questions a day .. it can be done by you or by members of MP reading this ...

This can be a milestone if you get your friends to take part in it and they tell their friends about it... pay it forward kind of concept.

Best of luck with this initiative !

aal m posting is questions... n may be if u want i can post hints for solvin the answers.. these question's answers are direct n u can get it from all sub's vipul prakashan textbuk.
all i think is we need to read the textbuk {especially d topics which v r covering..} jot down the points.. n frame ur own answers...
when u learn n write ur own answers... tht's when u understand n learn quickly.. which doesnt need ratta marofyin... learn as if u wanna teach ur frnd d same topic... then see hw quickly u learn..:SugarwareZ-290:
 
this is simply amazing........this will surely help the bms students..to study well...........on the condition that.."THEY GET TIME FROM THEIR BUSY SCHEDULE TO MEET UP 3 SUBJECTS A DAY".....
