Reasons

Theory-Based (we know how seriously we take our practical's)

Most of the students believe in mugging up the things and focus on just the marks without knowing the actual concepts behind it.

And here, We just want Exams, exams and exams.

We believe in studying and that’s what we run after all the time. We don’t care what hobbies we have or in what field we have an actual excellence.
