What To Do After 12th Board Exams Get Cancelled?
- Find A Suitable College
You have a lot of time on your hands and you can start preparing for your college life by identifying what college will suit your needs the best. Do your research and find the right course and college for you. - Read and Learn About College
Once you have finalised the college you want to apply to, it is important that you read about the college to familiarise yourself with its environment, calendars, events, and staff. When you do this with multiple colleges, you tend to build a base for comparison between these colleges. Not only will it help you learn more about the college that you are applying for, but it will also help you make the right decision when you are confused between colleges. - Work On Time Management Skills
Life changes when you make the transition from your school to college. The manner in which you study, complete co-curricular activities, and participate in numerous educational events changes significantly. This is why one of the most important skills in college is time management. Begin developing it now by preparing a timetable and dividing your time into dedicated chunks. - Develop Communication Skills
Another important aspect of your college is going to be the way that you communicate with everyone around you. You need to be able to formulate your thoughts into words and speak them, while also being able to understand what was said in order to form an appropriate response. Your communication skills will aid you in your course and help you grow personally and professionally as well. - Prepare Virtual Classroom Setup
Because classes are going to be virtual for a good amount of time in your college life (owing to the current pandemic), it is important that you build your virtual classroom setup. Be prepared beforehand as we can’t predict the scenario if the third wave hits us.
Admissions and college life will be completely different from what it used to be before because of the current health crisis. That does not mean that you cannot be prepared right now.
