I would reach out to other people that have already taken the exam and ask them how they managed. Ask them how they prepared, how they studied?

After you have asked 4-5 people how they approached the (jee mains), you should be able to create a similar plan that will work for you.

Hello sir, I am B.Tech electrical engineering student , i am not able to decide what should I do after the graduation. Should I work to achieve my goals or to earn money as my financial condition is poor?

Hi Pranali, apologies for the delay, I was just notified of this comment.

Graduating means you achieved a major goal in life, becoming an electrical engineer. I would not let that achievement go to waste. I would set goals that use the degree, which presumably would include using the degree to earn money.

whats your goal?can't you do both at the same time?

Hi Pritosh,

Yes, it is possible to pursue multiple goals at the same time. In fact, we most often are and that is the reason "R" stands for Relevant in the SMART model. You create a list of goals and can choose multiple goals to pursue at the same time.

Relevant can also help identify goal conflict. For instance you might have a goal to save money for a home and another goal to on a vacation. These are in conflict, requiring you either do not pursue one of the goals or you balance, requiring longer time to accomplish both.

Hello,
I'm Afnan recently completed my degree in Computer Science & got placed in a company, but I want to build my career as a teacher or in educational field as I love to teach math and I have experience in teaching too but I'm in a situation in which what I do as if I need to follow my passion, I need to reject the offer and build my career in a different field. So can you please suggest me something that helps me out

It depends on your financial ability to reject the offer. I see a few options.

-1- Reject the offer and apply for teaching positions.
-2- Accept the offer and apply for teaching positions.
-3- Accept the offer, create educational content (videos) for online teaching, and apply for teaching positions.
-4- Reject the offer, create educational content, and apply for teaching positions.

In all cases, if you wish to teach, then you apply for teaching positions. You set goals to follow that path. This means sacrificing other possibilities.

Thank you very much. I will choose 3 most probably even though my family is financially stable as I have a month to reject the offer so I will try for teaching positions and if it didn't work out, I will continue creating content and accept the offer.

In your SMART goals course, your "error" under actionable was that you said "lasers were secondary," but they were your 3rd milestone, not your second. (Not sure where else to send you message except here)
