Some will reach on time and some will face delays. But once you enter this journey, you have to make way for yourself. Even the decimal points plays an important role and you all know it very well. Being a mod and the part of that journey, I can co-relate myself to you. But IBPS PO Mains result left many students wondering that What Is SUCCESS is not guaranteed. Next? Well, every year the level of examination is going to be tougher and number of aspirants will definitely increase. With all I walk a lonely road these thoughts, not only my chances seem slim but my future The only one that I have ever known too look dark. Its good to be optimistic but at one point of time, Don't know where it goes one has to be realistic. Being Indians, we are too casual to act. We need a hard slap on our face to achieve something really good. History has a lot of stories that will shake you hard and hard enough to wake you up. But again, we Indians are too lazy to find it out. What went wrong? Were you alone in the crossfire? Can you afford to lose an year? Well, you all know the answers very well. Be it comment section or facebook, I have seen students expecting. They expect Pattern, they expect Cut-offs, they expect it to be like last year, but IBPS always come up with a new plan and that too an exceptional one. We cannot ignore the fact that IBPS is not only playing with the pattern but But it's only me, and I walk alone also with the timing of result. I walk this empty street It was pointed On the boulevard of broken dreams out by a student in the disqus but we noticed the same. Just a day or two before the Finale, it is publishing the result of exams. Where the city sleeps Well, it is obvious that the result will be published but why a day And I'm the only one, and I walk alone before the exams? So the indication is clear, even if it is a co- I walk alone, I walk alone incidence. Prepare yourself for mental battle as well. All The Very Best One thing is clear that it is not going to be A Journey, but The Journey. Every journey has a purpose and a destination.
