India is home to limitless talent and enterprising minds. However, the country’s sharp minds are not just created by accident.

She says, “Try to gain as much exposure and breadth as you can in the early years of your study as you try to discover your interests. Instead of limiting oneself to a single or two difficulties, young brains should attempt to be exposed to as many topics as possible. This early education will enable one to take big decisions in difficult situations. So, the crux of all of this is, to dive deeper and dream big, so go for it.”
