Dimapur, January 4 (MExN): A career guidance talk focusing on medical and engineering careers was organised by NITI Dimapur at its auditorium on January 4. The resource person for the session was Er Rishav Sethi, B.Tech graduate from Delhi Technological University.
Er Sethi, “known for his mobile applications for blood donors and the Hornbill Festival,” shared his expertise by encouraging students to set clear career goals, adopt effective time management techniques, and strive for excellence in national competitive exams like NEET and JEE. He emphasised the importance of giving their best efforts in the first attempt, as “success in the first attempt reduces regret later.”
During the session, Er Sethi outlined a step-by-step preparation strategy for cracking national-level exams. He also addressed critical aspects such as financial planning, stress management, and adherence to a well-structured study schedule. He pointed out that while lakh of students compete for limited seats in government colleges, students from Nagaland can leverage their Scheduled Tribe benefits with diligent preparation.
Highlighting NITI Dimapur's role in empowering students, Er Sethi praised the institution's annual coaching programs for Class IX to XII students and crash courses for repeaters. He also acknowledged the institute's highly qualified faculty, primarily composed of IIT alumni, who bring firsthand experience of the challenges involved in cracking exams like IIT-JEE and AIIMS.
