Message from Jatin MUST READ FOR THE STUDENT COMMUNITY!

I can use this space to take credit for everything that PythaGURUS has created. But the reality is that- every student- everyone that we worked with has been equally responsible for the results that have been created. We have worked with a lot of people for a decade now. Those people have been very committed in creating top scores, Ivy League admits, and crores and crores and crores of scholarships !

We created moments that inspired us, and we built our life around those.

I am writing as i have been you. I have lived through your fears and your insecurities, and your motivation. I have lived through these as a student myself.

I want to share what I learnt from you! Learnt this from 1000’s of students just like you.
We learnt these together about life and the Game of Creating Top Tier University Admits, and crores of scholarships. All of us are sharing these with you because we do not want you to invest 50 years in learning these!

Top 10 Rules

Rule 01

Read this point twice as you won’t get it right the first time: “If your admit to an IVY League is for you and only you- this game will be tough! However, If you really care about how will others benefit just because you went to Stanford, you will very soon realize that getting into an Ivy League is not a big deal! It is just a means to an end! This point is not about the community service bullets on the resume and essays. Every applicant has those! Do not use “Serving people” for a Ivy League admit! Do it the other way. Use the Ivy League Admit for “Serving people” – and make money too!

Rule 02

Online test taking – Test taking is a lot like bookmyshow.com. You go online, pick a date, and buy the entry tickets. If you don’t perform on the test day, you buy the tickets again, and retake the stupid test. Funny thing is you make it sound like a once in a life time opportunity and panic! We are not finding a cure to cancer and aids!

Rule 03

If you do not have a very powerful academic past, or you think that you are average, drop your past concerns right outside this door. Trust me. It is “How focused are you choosing to be now” that counts. It is a fresh start!

Rule 04

If you have been visiting this classroom for more than 8 months now, you are making test taking a bad habit. Get your preparation right with discipline, and commitment. There are better things to do in this short life than to spend years on test taking. Get a score, go out and live!

Rule 05

It does not matter if you think you are not intelligent. It is the discipline that helps you create a 99th percentile score.

Rule 06

If you think you can get a 99th percentile score, you are absolutely right. If you think you cannot get a 99th percentile score, you are again absolutely right. It is a matter of choice- choose carefully.

Rule 07

See around– you will see lots of success stories with 99th percentile scores, and crores of scholarships. They were all normal human beings just as you are. They had same feelings and emotions as you do. They were very insecure, and did not know what future had for them. If they could do it, you can do it too. One thing that mattered the most discipline and hunger! Intelligence not compulsory!

Rule 08

Getting into a top tier university is not an accomplishment. Do not make a big deal out of it. It is a means to an end. It is a path to getting somewhere in your life. The admissions committee members at Wharton, Stanford, Columbia and Harvard are interested in simply finding out why do you care about their courses- and they also believe that an admit is just a means to an end!

Rule 09

“This is my last year, and I have got to get into a top tier university asap” – is the best way to create artificial pressure on your brain. Stop it! And focus on action.

Rule 10

The circle of- Harvard to McKinsey to McKinsey partner to coolest private equity investor to most successful man that ever lived will consume your entire life- You can simply declare success right now and be quiet! Let us just study and create strong applications, and keep the conversation about success out of it!
