“As a student, we should know how to answer questions correctly. It is not a must you answer all questions during the examination, but the ones you answer should be well written,” she said.
Explaining her reading pattern she said: ”I read and assimilate during the day, I can’t read beyond 12 am in the midnight, so I spend the day judiciously. I can read from 7 am to 7 pm.”
On how she will impact the world, she said: “We all know this is an era of a pandemic. As a Biochemist, I can provide a solution to it. Cancer is also a major threat, we can also find a solution to that and many more through our research.”
While advising the students, she said: “The key to academic excellence is persistent reading. They must be studious, focused, disciplined and dedicated to their studies.
“They should do away with reading to pass but read to understand and most importantly prayer so as to sail through. Excellence is a journey. We must not be static. We must keep moving forward because this is just an achievement at the preliminary stage,” she concluded.
