What are some helpful tips for students starting their first year at CSVTU?

One of my friends recently graduated from CSVTU. According to him if you abide by certain rules your college life will be easier.

• The most important thing to become an engineer is to choose whether you will go for a job or higher studies, then prepare accordingly.
• Start preparing for GATE/CAT/XMAT examinations from your second year of engineering and try not to have a backlog in any engineering exams.
• You need to understand that the marks and university do not make much impact. It is your profile and skills that matter.
• To attend all the college functions, sports events, etc. This will help in your holistic development.
• Do study from textbooks as per syllabus, and practice questions.
• Solve previous year’s university questions. Try doing a proper revision before any exam.
• Instead of mugging up theories, learn and understand the concept thoroughly.

Overall, try enjoying your college life as this is a major place where you can grow and create your individuality. Along with academics try to be also enthusiastic about extracurriculars as they will be beneficial as well.
