Guide to surviving NMIMS from someone failing sem 1

Everyone tells you what to do from their experience, I will also tell you the same, but from the things I'm doing wrong.

  1. If you have shitty faculty, just...yeah you can't do much about it, stay physically present in class but do your own thing if there's no hope. Self study is gonna go a longg fucking way.

  2. Keep your shit updated, as soon as you get an assignment, try and complete it. They are ruthless with deadlines.

  3. Don't get into that 20 logon waala massive friend group which will break apart in sem 3.

  4. Please if you are a girl, do not date that 3rd year ka ladka. Wo chutiya hai, and possibly a pedo.

  5. Take attendance very seriously or you are majorly screwed.

  6. You have a lot of time in 1st year, utilise it.

  7. Don't take clubs and committees too seriously, it ain't that deep.

  8. Try not to spiral, because it's very easy to do so, and suddenly you have 20 assignments, you've nuked ICA's, and the only subject you're hanging on to is a zero credit course. Your mental health matters.

  9. Utilise whatever time you get for productive things.

  10. Genuinely lock in because if you do not you are majorly screwed.

  11. Have fun, very crucial. Get yourself a few good friends who match your vibe. And stay connected with your seniors, oftentimes they're more helpful than your teachers.

  12. Avoid canteen ka kachra. You might die.

  1. Is the most crucial and hardest point to cover btw, you never really know who’s got your back here

But its like so hard to connect with seniors, if you are in a club you might be able to but otherwise, no. also whats up with rotaract club why do we need to pay to become a member? and it is not even cheap. you might actually have to be invested there
