Failing clat was the best thing to happen to me! Stop getting depressed over a paper.

I was never a bright student, but in 11-12th class I gave clat my all, studied 8 hrs + each day but guess what I couldn't get into a NLU, my rank was 40XX, I was the saddest person for the longest time cause I really worked hard, all my study was self study as I couldn't even afford coaching at that time. I cried and asked God why even after giving my best I couldn't crack the exam and felt like a complete failure. Looking back, now I only thank God for making it so that I didn't crack the exam, LIFE AT A NLU SUCKS, even life AFTER NLU SUCKS, you have to study 10-12 hrs+ a day at NLU, I know cause my college GGSIPU is just infront of NLUD and students at NLUD are depressed and stressed AF, the only thing they are focused on is becoming a corporate slave down the line for a blood sucking organization that will use you like a machine. On the other hand, my college has offered me opportunities no NLU could've, we regularly have renowned speakers coming to our college for guidance + the amount of free time available to me I can do running internships. The main benifit I have had is that now I can even manage to build my own business while still being in college which would otherwise never have been possible in a NLU. Once you learn how to make money, you realize it's not important to sell your soul for a 1.5L pm salary and there are better ways for a better life. Believe me, YOU ARE WORTH MORE THAN A COLLEGE, don't let this effect you more than it has to, just stay focused and consistent in academics and practical world and someday some opportunity will surely land your way which will be 100x better than a NLU. Peace✌️
