Tell us about a time when you messed up, and what you learnt from the experience?
It was the 5th day in the B-school and we are asked to do an individual assignment however I misinterpreted it and did a wrong analysis of the same. Since deadlines are sacrosanct and we literally had an hour to do the same, It was all messed up. Then I took a break from this and I analyzed the situation and came up with a solution and finally made it. This experience made me realize the importance of networking and how you can leverage it and get things done. Apart from this it also made me realize that taking 30 seconds brake from the situation and then thinking about it does help in resolving it.

Tell us about an ethical dilemma that you may have faced, and how you resolved it.
One such ethical dilemma which I faced was when I was in my class 10th and I was captaining my school cricket team. So the next morning we had our final match in one of the most reputed cricket tournaments and it could bring any team player to the limelight in the eyes of the selectors. So in our school, we had a player who was trying for the upcoming U16 and U19 state cricket trials, and for him playing that match was an important stepping stone. However, owing to his form and performance he was not our first choice thus he was not in the playing eleven.
