Interview WITH

AMAN SAJI

1. Many consider extracurricular activities a waste of time,

how important do you think extracurricular activities are

in shaping a student's profile and future opportunities?

I believe that there must be greater emphasis on

extracurriculars, and they should be presented

in a way that complements academics.
TEXT

I have my reasons for saying this. Firstly,

extracurriculars have helped me improve my

attitude toward life and taught me to be more

realistic about my expectations of others.

For example, in team sports, we encounter all

kinds of players—the selfish ones, the team

players, the caring, selfless ones, and so on.

Observing and interacting with such people

gives me insight into how individuals behave in

real-life situations. This prepares me to handle

unexpected scenarios in other areas of my life.
