  • Why College Workshops Matter More Than Exams

    Why College Workshops Matter More Than Exams

    Exams test our memory, but workshops test our skills. During my M.Tech journey, I have participated in several workshops, and each one added more value to my learning than many classroom lectures. One of my favorite workshops was on web development, where we built a live website in just one day.

    The energy in workshops is always different. You’re surrounded by motivated students, mentors, and real-time problem-solving. Unlike exams where you write theory, workshops teach you how to apply knowledge. I remember learning about WordPress in one session, and by the end, I had a working blog site running. That hands-on experience gave me more confidence than reading any book.

    That’s why I believe every student should attend as many workshops as possible. They may not count in marks, but they count in experience—and that’s what matters in real life.

  • Life Lessons from My Internship Experience

    Life Lessons from My Internship Experience

    My internship was my first real step into the professional world. I was nervous at first, but soon I realized it was one of the best learning experiences of my academic journey. I got the chance to work on real projects, collaborate with seniors, and understand how the industry works.

    One important lesson I learned was the value of teamwork. In college, we often work in groups, but internships push you to collaborate with people from different backgrounds. Communication and adaptability became as important as technical skills.

    Another lesson was time management. Unlike college assignments with flexible deadlines, industry projects require discipline. I had to plan my tasks carefully, meet deadlines, and deliver quality work. This experience prepared me for the transition from a student to a professional.
