- ‘Want to pursue graduation in history from DU’
Though I was a bit apprehensive earlier about how I would fare, I am now happy with my marks. It would have been better had exams been held but on the other side, we are perhaps safe because they weren’t held. My father is an SDO in the state irrigation department and my mother is a lecturer in a government higher secondary school. I want to pursue graduation in history from the Delhi University. I aspire to become a professor in a college or join the civil services. I am active on Twitter, as being a student of political science, I need to keep myself updated on current affairs.

‘My ambition is to join the IAS’
I am happy and satisfied with my marks. If the examinations were not held, it was not our fault. I was full prepared for the exams. I had appeared in three pre-boards. After it was finally announced that we won’t have to take an examination, I made ‘positive use’ of the time available. My father is a general manager in a private engineering company while my mother teaches in DPS, Kolar. My ambition is to join the IAS. As for social media, I am active only on Instagram.

‘Want to make a career in finance or management’
I am feeling very good. I was expecting around 98% marks but what I have got is higher. Our academic session stretched up to one and a half years, against the normal one year. We faced uncertainty, there were health concerns and sometimes I felt very disturbed. But all's well that ends well. I think the decision to cancel the exams was correct. They did the best they could have done in the given circumstances. Mathematics and economics are my favourite subjects and I want to pursue a career in finance or management. My dad is an IRS officer and my mom is a music teacher. I am on Instagram. I use no other social media platform.

“Want to be physician or a mathematician”
My father runs an LPG agency and my mother is a homemaker. I am a bit disappointed but happy. The decision to cancel the examinations was right as at the time the situation was out of hand. I am inclined towards research. I want to become either a physician or a mathematician and pursue research in either of the two disciplines. As for social media, I consider it a waste of time. But it is a good way of giving oneself a break. I am on Twitter.
