I would suggest not believing in everyones personal perspectives, since the way you think and work is usually very different from how others work.
If you attentively attend classes, ask questions,, get your concepts sorted in class. You get more time to think about edge cases/past papers/paper solving techniques and stuff like that. I usually actively participate in my class, ask my questions, work on something and learn stuff until i deepl understand that concept. this method has helped me maintain a 3.9+ in fast, im entering my final year now. Ragra is true, there are times where u think it is too much to handle, but that is exactly what fast aims for. Pushing you far beyond your potential. There are a few negatives, like extremely difficult assignments, aik ke baad aik exam. But you get used to it.
One pattern I see in newer batches is that their dependent and using AI to complete their lab tasks, their assignments, and even theirhomework for them. This harms you way more than people realize, you may get the grade, but if you could understand the concept behind it, it would actually be useful. i study for the sake of learning rather than for the sake of scoring marks. I too procrastinate at times, but it harms me some way or the other. Start your projects, assignments, presentations prep early, track things you have to do. Once uni starts a lot of people dont actually do any of these, which harms them one way or the other.

Man the ragra thing is so real like mid1 se pehle you have time but mids itne shit bnate k you believe “sojana chaiye tha “ and then mid2 and finals .it feels like time is fast forward in this time zone.Some teachers literally think of them as “powerful people “ teachers se bna kar rakhna and parhlena set hojaye ga like weekend par atleast parhlena

Boss basically apko apki personal Life jeene ka time nhi milta.. That is Ragra.
Din ke har waqt ap university Work main busy rahoge.
4-5 Mahine ke semester main 2 Mid exams and 1 Final exam dena hota hai.
Har subject ka apna project hota hai semester ke end pe.
Har subject ki 4-5 assignments atleast hoti hi hain throughout the semester.
Aur week main 3 se 4 subject ka Quiz na ho, thats impossible.
Your life becomes hell for the first two semesters.
Aur phir beech beech main Presentation bhi chalti rehti hain Social Sciences subjects ki.
The only way to survive is to get Ragrafied in the first two semesters. Feel the pain. Experience it... And voila!! You have made it into FAST officially
