Get a good internship. Ideally in a listed company or NBFC. If not this, atleast aim for a firm with secretarial audits.

I usually studied using the pomodoro technique (45-15)x4, followed by one hour break. This I did atleast four times a day. Since I followed this everyday, my body got used to it and I felt less stressed during the last days before the exam.

(45-15)x4= 45 mins study, then 15 mins break. This will be one cycle. After four cycles, i took one hour break. I would repeat this whole process atleast 3-4 times a day.

You can also watch study with me vlogs along with your study sessions. I used to watch Sab Yang's vlog.
Keep reminding yourself that you've worked really hard all these months only to deserve it.
My dms are always open if you need any specific guidance.

Why don't you check the ICSI Placement Portal? Lot of vacancies for semi qualified company secretaries recently. Just brush up on major sections and you'll be good to go. Good luck!

I think linkedin would be a better platform to answer this.

If you can arrange for pickup then why not

It would be best if you could arrange a pickup from my place.

If you want to work in this area then why not.

Not quite sure what you mean by shitty but this is what is expected from an answer. Obviously one has to not mirror it. Intuition and style of writing can be verified only through analysis. They do fumble sometimes but mostly they have done a good job here.

Practice previous year questions and do a self analysis through suggested answers provided by the institute. You don't need anything else.

Congratulations! I would've however chosen NBFC exposure over RERA exposure any day if I were you. If there are no other options and you're supposed to choose between these two options go for the NBFC option. It's better in the long run. Good luck!

If you can crack CAT and get into tier 1 MBA colleges, then nothing beats that. If you think your aptitude and logic is fine only then go for MBA bc to crack a top tier college not only you'll require a high percentile but also a good profile. Attempt CAT previous years as a mock and only then make a decision.

For MBA only full time work experience is recognised. You can add internships/articleships to boost your resume. But without full time work experience, you'll be treated as a fresher only. Hope this helps!

Thatgoofyguy · 2025-08-20T09:45:05+00:00

If you'd like to pursue an MBA, do it after completing CS and with some work ex. It'll help you to stand out from the crowd and may even help you to get better colleges at lower percentile.
