I Got Mail...

The following is a mail sent out by the PGP Chair to all the first years here at IIMA..

=================================================

Advice to students who want to do well in exams: *SLEEP! *

Most of you are studying hard to do well in the quizzes, assignments, and exams. In your anxiety to do well, some of you might be tempted to forget that you are but human beings and reduce sleep to unsustainably low levels.
DON'T!
The body will revolt and not let you do your best. So do work hard, but don't ignore your body's modest need for food and sleep.
Learn to relax.
However dark the sky appears now, you can be sure that the sun will rise in a few hours.

I wish you all the best in the forthcoming mid-term exams.

Well well....

Easy for him to say now. He's a Prof. The result of many sleepless nights I'm sure.
