...One last month at home before college begins and everything changes 🥹......

From worrying about Cet & board exams to finally worrying about college, roommates, assignments, attendance, making friends and figuring out what we actually want to do with our lives 😭......

Feels weird knowing that this chapter of staying at home is almost over. Time really flew by.

And from now on, we probably won’t get such long breaks at home anymore. 🥹

Anyone else feeling the same? 🥹

Don’t you ever feel like life is just one phase after another? 😭

Right now, most of us are stressed about choosing the right college. Then college starts and there’s a whole new set of things—attendance, exams, backlogs, difficult teachers, college politics, making friends, figuring out what we actually want to do, etc.

Then comes the realization that a degree alone isn’t enough. You need projects, skills, internships and actual proof that you can do something. So you start worrying about building a good profile, getting internships, placements and eventually a job.

Then comes the salary phase—“Am I earning enough? Did I choose the right career? Should I switch? Why is everyone else progressing faster?” 😭

After finally becoming somewhat settled, there are still responsibilities, financial planning, family expectations and eventually the whole finding a life partner phase. Then adjusting with each other, managing families, responsibilities, and building a life together.

And somewhere in between all of this, we're also supposed to enjoy life, maintain friendships, take care of ourselves and actually be happy. 💀

Maybe I'm overthinking, but sometimes it feels like we're constantly preparing for the next stage of life instead of actually living the current one.

What do you guys think? Does life really work like this, or is there more to it? Genuinely curious to hear everyone’s perspective.

Mine: watching Manzil lectures even though I wasn't giving Jee 😭

What's yours? 👇

Mention the college and why you think it's underrated (placements, faculty, campus, ROI, coding culture, etc.).

Hey everyone,Now that the official CAP Round 1 allotment results and cutoff sheets are out, can we talk about how absolutely brutal the rank inflation is this year?Historical trends and previous years' cutoff PDFs are completely useless at this point. Because of the massive 2.45 Lakh+ registrations and the multiple attempts, percentiles that used to easily secure a solid, comfortable branch at reputable mid-tier colleges in Pune/Mumbai are now getting completely scanned past by the software.What’s even crazier is the tech-branch spillover effect. Because Computer Science, IT, and AI cutoffs spiked to unreachable levels, it looks like a massive wave of high-percentile students panicked and clogged up completely different branches as lower safety blocks just to avoid going unallotted. This has artificially inflated the entry barrier for branches across the board, even at standard local campuses.

Hey seniors 🙌 is it possible to change branches in the 2nd year at an autonomous college in Pune? What’s the process and CGPA required?
