Referring the notes, spending time in the library getting more points for a particular topic etc. were regular routines. The teachers never overlooked my needs. Would never have got a rank if it was not for the continious backing up of the lectures specially Prof. Hemalatha and Prof. Ranjini. I am thankful to them for making me achieve this feat. All my classes were interesting and filled with enthusiasm. I would like to advise my friends that if you make up your mind to work hard, you can get a rank. Please follow the instructions of your teachers religiously and listen to them in their classes. They deliver hidden gems during their lectures which may be missed if you are not attentive”.
