WHAT IS ACADEMIC SUCCESS?
Success is a very subjective topic. Success is defined differently by each individual. Success can take many different forms, including being wealthy, advancing in one’s job, receiving praise, being happy, or having a positive influence on the lives of others. The path to success is a path that is unknown. A person who is successful feels fulfilled and accomplished, which makes them happy. A person requires direction in order to succeed.
Academic achievement is frequently defined as reaching desired outcomes in one’s educational activities. A person’s ability to succeed in exams and place higher academically than others are indicators of their achievement in school. Our experts discussed academic milestones and how to reach them in the webinar.
STEPS TO ACHIEVE SUCCESS
- YOUR GOAL – The first step toward success is knowing what you want to accomplish. A person who is interested in biology and wants to learn more about how the human body functions could choose to become a doctor. As a result, you have a goal and may jumpstart your career. The goal should be SMART – Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Time-bound.
Extramarks does a Psychometric analysis which helps the students and parents to understand their goals, strengths and weaknesses better.
Beginning the planning process as soon as possible. An individual’s foundation gets stronger when they get started young. By the time of the tests, the individual has developed the confidence to overcome any roadblock. Starting early gives the person a competitive advantage.
- SETTING THE DISCIPLINE – Concentration is easily disrupted by distractions. Consequently, it is critical to practice discipline. Concentration is hampered when a phone is checked while studying. Building discipline takes time and immense will. To adapt in the competitive world, it is better to start early.

In extramarks, experts from IIT, NIT and doctors take live sessions which help the students to get clarity about competitive exams and how they can ace in that. Mentorship programmes as well as continuous assessments are taken for the improvement of the students.
SUCCESS MANTRA –
