There are various methods to prepare for your exams effectively. It always helps to remember that starting early and not panicking will go a long way in helping you achieve your study goals. That being said, here are some of the techniques you can use to study.<\/p>
1. Chapter Mapping <\/b><\/p>
Chapter mapping or concept mapping is a very powerful and effective method to prepare for your exams. Not only does it save time, it'll also ensure that you are at the top of your game by being effective and on time. Here's a video that explains the concept. <\/p>"},{"type":"youtube","id":"vid-url-1493219363733","data":"HxvA3VAKExs"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1493219366835","data":"
2. Organise your work desk <\/b> <\/p>
An organised work desk can save you more time than you think. When you're preparing for your exams, every second is precious, so there is really no reason for you to waste your time in looking for stuff that's already on your desk. Organise, keep it neat, and save time. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493219899357","data":"5900bc0c5f890"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1493219901403","data":"
3. Organise study groups <\/b> <\/p>
and make sure you stick to the goal of studying and don't descend into gossiping, chilling out somewhere and talking. Make sure you organise study groups where you can help your friends and vice versa.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493220368423","data":"5900be0cb9e89"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1493220371109","data":"
4. Plan your breaks <\/b> <\/p>
Constant studying will ruin your day and your brain. Don't forget to take regular breaks where you close your eyes and relax, letting the information you absorbed settle in. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493220565811","data":"5900be2c0c1b4"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1493220567900","data":"
5. Eat healthy and sleep well <\/b> <\/p>
A healthy body doesn't just benefit your day to day health but how much you can study and remember as well. Drinking a lot of water and getting 8 hours of sleep is absolutely essential. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493220755586","data":"5900be3f52f63"}]
There are very few professions that allow you to directly impact a person's life and bring positive change through one's actions as much as law and being a lawyer does. With the world becoming smaller each and every day with constant innovations and faster air travel, it is important to acquaint oneself with international law. In times like these when there's a refugee crisis in the Middle East and our own backyard in Myanmar, and with tensions high across the world, it only seems right that we take the initiative to stand up for what's right. <\/p>
That being said, here are a few reasons on why you should consider International Law<\/p>
1. Mounting Tensions <\/b><\/p>
With war, there are war crimes. The saying that history is written by the victor is true, because often we never hear about the atrocities committed by the winners. With the world on the brink of what seems to be another international conflict, students can enable themselves to become a symbol of justice in dark times. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493215930915","data":"5900af76e7165"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1493215936499","data":"
2. Admiralty Law<\/b> <\/p>
Cruise ships are all fancy but they are subject to multiple international criminal and private laws. Ships are usually subjected to the laws according to the flag it flies on the mast, but often has a multi cultural crew, as such, international law sets the guidelines for all different nationalities and protects your rights on the high seas. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493216153702","data":"5900af90551aa"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1493216155343","data":"
3. Laws Regarding Stateless Persons <\/b><\/p>
The world is a little anti-refugee right now, although there are good people fighting for the cause, people who have no country too are subject to laws, and international law protects their rights. Take the Syrian crisis for example. <\/p>
Another example is an excellent Tom Hanks movie called The Terminal, highly recommended. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493217144755","data":"5900afbf264f5"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1493216788011","data":"
4. Commercial Law <\/b> <\/p>
In this day and age of international trading, an Indian company having issue with a Korean one are subject to international laws as it is obviously not an internal issue that can be solved. These things happen more often than most people think. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493216916745","data":"5900afd7698bb"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1493216919000","data":"
5. Extradition Laws <\/b> <\/p>
With India hounding Vijay Mallya and trying to get him extradited from the United Kingdom, we understand why international law is important as they also deal with Extradition laws. There are complex laws between countries to return fugitives from their waters and land, and you can fight to bring them to justice. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493217048424","data":"5900afec30609"}]
It is said that service to man is service to God, and if there is one organisation under the government that adopts this ideal into their daily life, it is the NSS. <\/p>
The National Service Scheme, launched in Mahatma Gandhi's centenary year (1969) is now spread across the country in many colleges, with their motto being 'Not me, but you'<\/i> a motto they've been true to as seen by their actions. Every year, the NSS awards the best volunteers from across the country in a ceremony. We speak to Boranchu Manish Reddy, selected for the Best NSS Volunteer award for this year.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493211794262","data":"59009d43b4e87"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1493211796028","data":"
Manish, a final year student of CVSR College, joined the NSS in his first year, \"I've always been interested in service, and serving fellow humans is one of the best things you can do for the society,\" says the young student. From volunteering various camps to organising them, Manish has been involved in conducting blood donation camps, eye camps and adopting villages and conducting 7 programs in 7 days. <\/p>
In fact, such is his dedication to service, in 2015, Manish Reddy was awarded the best blood donor award, for regularly donating his blood, as soon as he is able. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493211993067","data":"59009ba130f19"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1493211999065","data":"
Manish very humbly points out that he isn't the only winner of the best volunteer award, \"Many people across various colleges applied for the award, but 8 people from Telangana were selected. Of the 8, I'm the only one from JNTU,\" he says, before talking about his time in NSS, \"I've been involved in various events conducted by the NSS. I was also one of the few selected to go to the pre-Republic Day Parade, which in turn has selections for the NSS parade during Republic Day.\"<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493212162392","data":"59009c495836d"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1493212173365","data":"
We asked Manish what his advice to students who want to follow in his footsteps would be, and he promptly replied, \"There is only one thing I want to say, really. If you want to serve the nation and it's people, do not do it just for the sake of. Love what you're doing, and do what you love.\"<\/p>
An inspiration to many students, especially his juniors, we can only hope more students take Manish Reddy as their inspiration and focus on service and consider joining the NSS. We wish Manish Reddy all the best for his future endeavours. <\/p>"}]

While some thronged the movie for the visuals, some came to see the two hunks - Rana and Prabhas in action, for all the hype that was created about it and the movie sure didn't disappoint as it was literally a treat to the eyes, in all ways.

With exam season hanging just above our heads, ready to drop any moment, it is important to remember these few points and make sure you check them off as the date for the exams approach. <\/p>
1. Check equipment<\/b> <\/p>
You do not want to be caught off guard in final sprint to the exams, and especially on the day of the exam itself. Keep a regular check on your equipment, always put it in the same place you picked it up from so it's easier to find again, and hiss at anyone who tries to tell you your room is a mess. They don't understand that their is beauty in chaos, but I digress.<\/p>
One of the worst things that can happen on exam day is you misplacing something crucial, like a calculator or carrying a malfunctioning pen with you. Take care of your equipment, people. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493123859133","data":"58ff474f4b8b8"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1493123861948","data":"
2. Follow Time Table to the letter<\/b><\/p>
We've been talking about this for weeks now, but always have a time table and be ready to tackle issues head on so you don't panic at the end. Study now, chill and revise later, and right before the exam, give yourself a day or two for the full scoop. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493124342778","data":"58ff47739f5f2"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1493124345252","data":"
3. Eat Healthy <\/b> <\/p>
As someone who was quite reckless with his health, trust me when I say this, take care of your health before the exams. Eat at home, don't eat from places with questionable hygiene, and make sure you eat enough to get all the vitamins and protein your body needs. It's very important. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493124446348","data":"58ff478af16f4"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1493124449069","data":"
4. When in doubt, ask (not in the exam hall though) <\/b> <\/p>
Check with your friends and professors if you need something explained to you fast and quickly. The trick here is to make a list of the chapters you want to study and study all of them one by one so you aren't left short changed. So go ahead, ask and ask shamelessly if you have to. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493124613747","data":"58ff47b51cacd"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1493124615581","data":"
5. Sleep <\/b> <\/p>
It's sad that I even have to type this out. Sleep is probably the most important thing you can do before an exam, and you can do it peacefully as well if you follow your time table perfectly. Waking up fresh in the morning and going to the exam hall as sharp as a samurai sword will always put you in a better position than staying up all night and barely managing to write your exam because of lack of sleep. <\/p>

Srinivasa Ramanujan was one of India's greatest minds, a peerless genius who was ahead of his time, surprising many eminent mathematicians from across the world. Today, his life has also been turned into a Hollywood movie starring Dev Patel in the role of the quite and shy genius of math, titled The Man Who Knew Infinity, and know he did. <\/p>
So today, on the anniversary of his birth, let us take a look at his greatest contributions to Mathematics<\/p>
1. Letters to G. H. Hardy<\/b> <\/p>
Ramanujan, with the help of his friends, had written letters and sent his theorems to professors in England in the late 1900s and early 1910s. While many professors returned his papers without comment, G. H. Hardy couldn't believe his own eyes. Hardy at first thought that the papers from from a potential fraud, but then later concluded that nobody would posses the imagination to conjure up the theorems Ramanujan had proved. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493117909468","data":"58ff31a899b76"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1493117911991","data":"

3. Ramanujan Notebooks<\/b> <\/p>
Following his death at the young age of 32, Srinivasa's brother collected his papers and his notebooks to publish them, which he did. It is considered one of the most important works of modern mathematics. But many of his notes were still lost and discovered later, and as such, there are 4 notebooks of his that have been published since then. The publication of the notebooks also gave rise to a popular misconception that Ramanujan couldn't solve the theorems but wrote the final result directly, but this is not true, as there is no reason for Ramanujan to write the proof in his own notes without having to explain it to someone. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1493118536529","data":"58ff31c3937d0"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1493118539004","data":"

5. Hardy\u2013Ramanujan Number (1729)<\/b><\/p>
A bit of a story, this one. During his time in England and at Cambridge University, Ramanujan would often fall sick due to various health issues. During one such period where he was sick, his Academic Advisor and fast friend G. H. Hardy went to see him in a taxicab bearing the number 1729. When Hardy remarked that 1729 was a dull number, and that he hoped it wasn't a bad omen, to which Ramanujan replied, \"No, it is a very interesting number; it is the smallest number expressible as the sum of two cubes in two different ways.\"<\/p>
Recounting his anecdote years later, Hardy quoted Professor Littlewood, his colleague and Ramanujan's other academic advisor, that 'every positive integer was Ramanujan's personal friend.'<\/p>
