21. I stood 1st in board examination at SSC. It was a big bang, celebration, news & photo in news
paper, etc. I got my identity in a district place. I got the first scholarship which I handed over to dear father.
22. There was a demand for me to seek 11th admission in school as well as college. Professors & teachers will speak to Dad. We decided to take admission in college. This has taught me seeking advice & consulting.
23. I was confused, dad wanted me to be doctor, brother wanted me to be CA and I wanted to be an engineer. I took Biology as well as mathematics.
24. There were lot of advantages & positive impact of good marks. I used to get attestations & signature of authority for true copies quickly & easily.
25. Will like maths a lot, would study during night hours, 9 to 2 am, Firke Sir asked to join his tution, without charging money. I gave him after results were announced. He would quote my name with BSC students. That was really motivating. Once everyone stood up in a class except me when he asked various formulae to all the students at random. I got 99 marks in mathematics. Firke sir shouted where did I miss 1 mark? I learnt passion about the teaching. At Pune
26. My father was detected with cancer. My 12th result was awaited. I visited sasoon hospital, Pune. He was a bit worried about me. But surprised to see I was stable. He said; learn as much, be professional, do the best in your career, remain honest throughout the life. Those were the aspirations and blessings.
27. My father got operated & fully recovered. I learn to be stable.
28. I took admission in College of Engineering, got mechanical engineering branch; and hostel admission in HND Jain Hostel. I was a bit late for applying, so got the room at backside, it was very congested, and had no light. Room was equipped with yellow light. I learnt to live with adjustments.
29. My spoken English was not good, I had slightly inferiority complex. During practical sessions, students from city used to push us back, almost visually impossible to see the practical.
30. I had applied Jain community scholarships & granted as well. I also got scholarship from State Government. Balance of the money was assured by my brother-in-law. I am thankful to all of those. I learnt attitude of sharing & supporting.
31. I was trying to adjust life in city. I would not know the places. My brother used to stay with his friends in B.J.Medical college hostel. I would meet him weekly once. I learnt to cross roads in city with his guidance.
32. I would wake up during mid night for study, was losing the confidence. Brother guided that do
not get influenced by seniors, they may suggest you to drop few subjects, etc. I had planned a time table for a day. There used to be two types of time table, one when there is a holiday and second during college day. It has helped me to be organized & study in disciplined way.
33. I studied sincerely, appeared for the examination. As usual I had planned time table of study as
soon as examination dates were declared. There used to be 5 papers every semester. I would neither sleep for the whole night nor eats before going to examination. I will sleep for 2-3 hours after examination till evening time. It was 9th Dec 1979 when I appeared for the first paper of First Year engineering.
