One thing which I have experienced at Apeejay Stya is a strong focus on teacher-student relationship, says Khyati Mittal

My family has always been very different from others. They never asked me to fulfil their ambitions but mine. I was never good at Mathematics, so the Science stream was never an option for me in Class 11. My father is an advocate, so I have always seen him working as a lawyer and I eventually decided on my own that this is what I want to be. I decided to pursue Law while I was in Class 10. So, either Commerce or Arts would have been appropriate streams in Class 11. I chose Commerce thinking of a wider scope after Class 12 exams and in the future, too.

I joined Career Launcher coaching institute in Class 11 only. Besides the regular curriculum of Class 11 and 12, I was also focusing on the preparation of CLAT exam. I was so sure of this career choice that I did not want to waste another year after Class 12 board exams preparing for Law. By doubling the efforts during high school as compared to any other student, I managed to clear the CLAT exam in the first attempt. But, then came the most difficult situation in a students’ life, i.e. choosing an appropriate college for graduation. I am born and brought up in Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh, and hence, did not want to go beyond Delhi-NCR for the college. Based on my CLAT scores, I was eligible for admission to National Law University but that was quite a distance from my home. So, I picked up the list of law colleges and universities around Delhi-NCR and shortlisted the ones I was eligible for. And, based on the detailed study, I found School of Legal Studies, Apeejay Stya University to be a perfect fit for me. The institute offers admissions based on not just CLAT scores but also students’ performance in a Personal Interview round. And, my merit scores also got me a scholarship as well.

We have a fixed routine from 9:30 am to 5 pm and I never miss any of the classes. I always save my attendance so I can go to my home for a longer duration than usual. Besides classes, I usually spend my time in the library and canteen. The subjects which I love studying are Law of Contract, Company Law and Intellectual Property Rights. 

Apart from this, I have always been an active participant in various extra-curricular activities such as, I have been an Anchor in my college fests, I always love to take part in various debates and seminars and I am also the student representative of my batch. I have also taken part in various nukkad naataks. One thing which I have not done so far but would want to do any day is to teach my juniors a subject of my choice. My college has helped me enhance my overall personality in a very broader sense. It bought a sense of responsibility in me to manage things on my own. One thing which I have experienced in this university is a teacher-student relationship. Before joining this university, I never thought that there could be a strong relationship between a teacher and a student in such a way that you discuss anything and everything with them. I have earned mentors in the name of faculties. Moreover, after entering into this university, I realised the sense of being on my own. Before making a final decision, I now evaluate all possible aspects and then conclude my judgment. I have gained confidence and courage while being here.
