A systematic approach

Since childhood, I had always wanted to become a lawyer. By the time I reached high school, my conviction to pursue the profession grew stronger. When in class XI, I started preparing for various law entrance examinations. To begin with, it was not an easy process and it took me almost a year to get familiar with the basic components of the subject. I went through previous years' papers and tried to understand what the papers entail. It was only when I was in class XII that I streamlined my preparation. The road ahead was tough as I had to prepare for the entrance exams alongside my class XII board examinations. So, I had to work out a way to prepare for both, simultaneously.

I divided my time equally because both — national law entrance exam and board exam — were important for my future. However, it was due to adequate time management that I never felt the pressure.

My first step, while preparing for the National Law University, Delhi (NLU-D ) entrance examination, was to identify my strong subject areas and my weak areas. I planned my study schedule accordingly and devoted extra time to subjects such as maths, logical reasoning and general knowledge.

The competition was very tough with thousands of students from across the country taking the test. The sheer numbers — competing for a few available seats — intimidated me, but I decided to be brave and go ahead with the test. Once I was through with the entrance exam, deep inside I knew that I will crack it, but emerging as a topper is a feeling that is yet to sink in. Looking back, I feel that it was my systematic approach that helped me crack the exam.

As far as my future plans are concerned, I want to pursue legal studies in-depth and gain a proper understanding. I am not sure what I would do next in higher studies, but I would like to keep the options in the area of civil services, litigation and corporate open for the time being.

To sum up, I would say that the success mantra for cracking any exam is simply to be regular with your studies.
