    Dear NBS students,

    As we are approaching revision and examinafion season in 2 weeks’


    fime, do you only have studies, studies, studies on your mind?
    While doing well in your exams and gefting a good GPA is important, it
    is equally important to keep your future goals in sight. Remember,
    your studies (and GPA) is not an end but a means to an end, i.e. a
    steppingstone to your future career aspirafions.
    Don't get a rude “WHAT NOW?!” awakening on your graduafion day
    like Jeff on the right.
