As a student we are safe sound and at ease in school premises like a caterpillar in cocoon, free of all buzzing of life. But as we cross each stage from primary to middle school to higher school the mindset keeps maturing and we start exploring ourselves what we are, what we can do, and our enthusiasm leaps to explore the wide exciting world outside the school. As we cross the most important milestone of exiting from school our choices our decisions start taking shape, spreading our wings of talent with excitement and relentlessness. So it’s important what choices we make, the right choice we make, it makes things bright for us. As we start exploring the college options, the stream options the job, Career profile options we stress out with suggestions from our family, friends and what not. And easily we get influenced by others to choose some course or college for the sake of fitting in, and start following our seniors or cousins or our classmates and we forget the most important factor deciding our future that is "What suits me? ".
