Students like me from B.Sc background have had really hard times in and out of class coping with Finance subjects. Following are tips from a few lessons that I learnt-
1. Be in touch with your professor- Some are tough, I know, but they also know your weakness well. Ask them where you lack.
2. Get one good book & stick to it- Its true that in specializations, you have to read a lot, but often with so many books lying around, you might end up deciding which one to start. Understand it...then go for change.
3. The Job- Don't visualise yourself 2 years from now working on your PC doing some unknown research. Search the job postings available at different job sites like 'Naukri' & Monster.com. Find out what these jobs involve. Select your field of choice & work towards it. Believe me....you dont get to sit in the hot seat right away.
4. Everyday is a new day- So learn something new. There are analysis tools from excel. Dont wait for others to teeach you. The materials are available on net. And dont think you can get it done in a day.
5. Freelance- Get hold of a company of your choice. Dont just take the top ones. Take one that's faring very badly. Use your analytics that you learnt as Science Grads. Think what could have gone wrong. Do a short analysis and show it to your professors. This excercise would increase your confidence level and your proactiveness.
Do share any other tips or comments that you might have. Happy Calculating!!!
