If one were to ask my friends to describe me they would call me a very pleasant, diverse, active and intelligent woman. My outstanding academic performance at school , active participation in academics with strong quantitative and analytical abilities,  in addition to good leadership and communication skills earned for me  the “Young Student Scientist” title from the Ministry of Human Resource Development from among the thousands of students who applied for it nationally. Throughout my student career,  I have been a top ranker. I was in the top 0. % of all engineering aspirants in my state, which secured me a place in the Government College of Engineering, one of the premier engineering institutions in India. My four years of undergraduate studies and my exposure to various aspects of curricular, co and extracurricular activities have given a strong foundation to my analytical skills. My deep interest in  complex and intricate coding and the application of basic math skills have  enabled me to channel my quantitative and conceptual skills in analysing business issues. I have always enjoyed being  appreciated by the faculty members for my diverse interests and accomplishments.

During these four years  of engineering studies, I interacted with students from different states of varied cultural and social backgrounds. Working with these students on group  assignments, presentations, food festivals and other events taught me to be  more tolerant, open minded and empathetic. It  made me a better team player. I am interested in factors that affect the competitive performance of a business concern and the manner in which changes  in technology affect an organization’s structure and long-term business strategy.

I am determined to become a  powerful business Analyst and 10 years down the line I want to be the creator of a world class IT company. In order to gain an appreciation of these and related issues, it is essential for me to have a strong grounding in  Management. This would enable me to understand better the  complexities that lie behind the working of an organization and broaden my horizons, so that my avenues are not restricted to a particular trade or industry. I have come to the conclusion that studying at Indian Institute of Technology-Madras will definitely be the catalyst in putting me on the road to success.
