Mystory@Pritam Panigrahi: How I chose my course
From the very beginning I was interested in doing engineering from IIT but because of lack of proper guidance I couldn't make that happen. But after my Higher Secondary School Certificate (HSC), I managed to get good marks in Physics, Chemistry and Biology (PCB) and so I got admission in a college of Mumbai University, that is, St John College of Pharmacy and Research.
My college faculty members were average like any other college. The most important thing that I experienced at my college was that I made good friends. We all are destined to develop such friendships and college acts as the tool for that.
I was a day scholar and so I used to travel from my home to college every day and this is why I do not have any experience of hostel life. All I gained from college life was true friendship.
