Out of the four subjects, Mercantile law is a new subject for all students and hence requires a little more attention. M.Law can be time consuming but can never be tough at the CPT-Level. This is one area to maximize your score. A thorough preparation at this level will help you at the IPCC level and B.com exams as well.

Kids are beautiful, one of the many reasons being they could be honest and happy even when you\u2019re trying to be at the most serious level with them. You could put on a suit and tie and talk about North Korea\u2019s relations with the south, while your kid walks in with all the swagger in the world, tagging along the toddler in the rocker, of course. So how de we, as a structured society, break them down from such honest pockets of joy into synchronised machines. Of apparent reliance and broken down innovation?<\/p>
Is it the routine testing of memory and not intuitiveness? Or the knack of punishing those who step outside our borders of convention? Why do we stress on teaching generations after generations complex calculus and intensive biology and not allow a single soul inside our curriculum to explore their more creative side. Don\u2019t get me wrong, not trying to undermine sciences or their importance in shaping a child, but, don\u2019t you think, shaping into a mould isn\u2019t the best way to promote new thinking? It would be foolish of me to assert that everyone finds these streams a burden. But one would be foolish to assume some do. Maybe those some really are one of a kind in terms of art or music or dance or poetry or storytelling or the list goes on and on and on. <\/p>
This is where we need to make some changes to the system in place, we need to allow kids the freedom to do what they love and not force them into thinking the other way around. We need to give them the choice of doing arts at an early stage so that they don\u2019t waste 10 years of a life trying to fit a square peg in a round hole. <\/p>
1)\tMake classes like painting and learning an instrument a part of the general curriculum and not something rich schools give their students as a commodity. <\/p>
2)\tInvest in acquiring experts in the field of performing arts such as music or dance <\/p>
3)\tAllow kids to make a choice of a certain activity that they want to be a part of <\/p>
4)\tGive equal importance to these fields as those of public speaking and language\n<\/p>
In a country where poets are lauded one day and blemished the next, we need more who understand art for what it is. A way of expression. An outlet of sorts for everything from sorrow to satire. Disciplines like dance and music can enhance the learning experience of any child. It can improve their social skills, and make them a more valued part of the community. We need the next generation to understand arts has always been an integral part of human civilization, and not something you do when you\u2019re bad at math. <\/p>
Schools have to be the ones who take the initiative in this context. Instead of totally focusing on scoring the highest in a class test, we need kids to breathe a little more of the artistic vibe. At the end of the road, it would be disheartening to see a director, a songwriter, a painter and a dancer trying to pass the semester. Here is an excerpt from an interview, from the book Epiphany <\/p>
The school, in the '30s, wrote to her parents and said, \"We think Gillian has a learning disorder.\" She couldn't concentrate; she was fidgeting. she went to see this specialist. So, this oak-paneled room, and she was there with her mother, and she was led and sat on this chair at the end, and she sat on her hands for 20 minutes while this man talked to her mother about all the problems Gillian was having at school. And at the end of it, because she was disturbing people; her homework was always late; and so on, little kid of eight. In the end, the doctor went and sat next to Gillian and said, \"Gillian, I've listened to all these things that your mother's told me, and I need to speak to her privately.\" He said, \"Wait here. We'll be back; we won't be very long,\" and they went and left her. But as they went out the room, he turned on the radio that was sitting on his desk. And when they got out the room, he said to her mother, \"Just stand and watch her.\" And the minute they left the room, she said, she was on her feet, moving to the music. And they watched for a few minutes and he turned to her mother and said, \"Mrs. Lynne, Gillian isn't sick; she's a dancer. Take her to a dance school.\"\nI said, \"What happened?\" She said, \"She did. I can't tell you how wonderful it was. We walked in this room and it was full of people like me. People who couldn't sit still. People who had to move to think.\" Who had to move to think. They did ballet; they did tap; they did jazz; they did modern; they did contemporary. She was eventually auditioned for the Royal Ballet School; she became a soloist; she had a wonderful career at the Royal Ballet. She eventually graduated from the Royal Ballet School and founded her own company -- the Gillian Lynne Dance Company -- met Andrew Lloyd Weber. She's been responsible for some of the most successful musical theater productions in history; she's given pleasure to millions; and she's a multi-millionaire. Somebody else might have put her on medication and told her to calm down.\n<\/p>

Interviewing is a lot of work. You need to prep, make sure you've got a few resumes printed out, check to make sure your suit still fits, and so on and so forth. There's a few places you should check out before you head off to the interview, regardless of the position you're applying for.<\/p>
1) Glassdoor:<\/b><\/p>
Glassdoor is a multi-faceted website that offers some really great insights into companies. Not only do they post available jobs, they also give highlight benefits, salary ranges, and even interview questions! Make sure Glassdoor is a stop to make before you move any further in your hiring process.<\/p>
Additional note: If you feel like Glassdoor doesn't provide as much as you'd hoped, check Indeed. While their collection isn't nearly as in-depth as Glassdoor, they tend to compliment Glassdoor quite well and typically have what Glassdoor doesn't. You can visit the website by clicking here.<\/a><\/p>2) LinkedIn interviewer profiles<\/b>:<\/p>First, make sure your settings are set to private before creeping on the folks interviewing you. It's a great way to get a sense of the folks you'll be talking to. For example, their education, background, maybe some common subject areas (volunteer experiences, former employers, alumnae, etc.). Further, it also helps reinforce names with faces, which makes interviewing a more comfortable experience, especially if you're interviewing with a team of people. You can visit the website by clicking here.<\/a><\/p>3) The Company Website<\/b>:<\/p>This might seem like a given, but that's not actually the case.

First, make sure your settings are set to private before creeping on the folks interviewing you. It's a great way to get a sense of the folks you'll be talking to. For example, their education, background, maybe some common subject areas (volunteer experiences, former employers, alumnae, etc.). Further, it also helps reinforce names with faces, which makes interviewing a more comfortable experience, especially if you're interviewing with a team of people.

2. Quality of Academic Input: <\/b><\/p>
The rankings and job prospects are inevitably important factors to rank the college, but what is primary is the quality of education the institution is known to impart to it's students. It is one time investment that you are making, because what you are going to learn is the impetus to your professional career.

Let me be very clear with this right in the first line: I am not saying Arunabh Kumar is guilty, simply because it is not up to us to pronounce anyone guilty or not guilty, that is the job of the Judicial system, and should be left with them. <\/p>
The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act was enforced on 9th December, 2013, which enables women to report instances of sexual harassment at their workplace, creating a system of redressal of complaints and also providing safeguards against false false or malicious complaints. Under the act, and from the pages of Wikipedia, the Act also covers concepts of 'quid pro quo harassment' and 'hostile work environment' as forms of sexual harassment if it occurs in connection with an act or behaviour of sexual harassment.<\/p>
This means that a woman who files a sexual harassment complaint must be taken seriously and investigated internally via a committee, before proceeding further depending on the woman deciding to press charges or not. <\/p>
Considering these rules and guidelines, one would be correct in raising a question about why, when an anonymous blog posted on Medium accusing TVF's founder Arunabh Kumar, the company itself released a statement instead of the man himself, and what a statement that was. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1489482752027","data":"58c7b4a25ff95"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1489482857199","data":"
The above words are from TVF's official statement, which can be read by clicking here.<\/a> As you can see, if you read the entire statement, the above lines sound more like a threat than an official statement. Instead of actually investigating the matter internally, this is what they chose to respond with. <\/p>Now, the reason I'm speaking about this at length because it highlights a deep rooted issue of sexual harassment and the lack of will to investigate the issues. The recent firing of Amit Singhal, a former Google employee who had subsequently joined Uber is just one of the issues that add to the pile.

There is a minimum cut off that you need to score in each subject, therefore you do not have the privilege to ignore a particular section. Since you are appearing for a CA paper remember that Accounting is the key. If your basics in accounts are clear, your chances of clearing the examination automatically rise. Here is how you can maximise your scoring in accounting. <\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1489413829068","data":"1.
