and dealt with, respectively. These gives opportunity for growth in both personal and
professional life. Hence, learning is imperative for leading a good life as without knowledge and
concepts being cleared, no individual can sustain for a long time. Learning is the most vital thing
that paves way to explore new things. It a continuous process which develops various skills to do
activities. Further, this helps reducing or removing various flaws, change behaviour and
attitudes. Evolution of a human being is achieved through the education he or she receives from
school and colleges. Abilities are created by studying in educational institutions (Richardson and
Radloff, 2014). Apart from this, it gives confidence to face difficulties and become more stable
by making correct and effective decisions. Universities are to get advance education which will
increase and update existing level of knowledge.
Individual is filled with questions and this curiosity is endless and never be stopped. It is
a human tendency to become vulnerable where he lacks in information. Further, everything has a
specified system and processes which should be operated and carried accordingly. The main
purpose of getting admission into the university is to expand the dimensions of doing things. To
fulfil demands of self and family members, various sources must be there. Money is the ultimate
source to meet the needs. It has to be earned. Hence, a job or business is necessary to get income
regularly to maintain standard of living. Further, every organization while offering jobs set a
qualification level which has to be met. In such scenario, the importance of degrees comes in the
picture. A person incorporate a habit of learning since a very early age. A minimum level and
basic knowledge can be gathered from school education. On the other hand, practical and critical
knowledge and information is obtained through subjects that a person studies at universities
(Rogers, 2014).
Learning makes strong foundation on which a person can be emotionally, financially,
physically and socially lead a good life. Further, it contribute to economy of country which needs
to remain constant. The best way to learn and add more to the existing knowledge level is to
pursue a course at the university. Further, examinations that are conducted helps in assessing
rightness or wrongness of concepts so gained through lectures in the classrooms. Further,
presentations and vivas also develop skill and capabilities to make decisions that will give
desired results. The importance of qualification must not be underestimated. A person can

interpreting into simpler and intelligible way. Individual can become expert in the field by
applying various knowledge practically. Hence, learning helps a making in getting answers for
each and every questions that have raised in his mind. It as made me a good learner which helped
me survive in the most difficult and critical circumstances. Further, I have built huge confidence
in myself and now, I do not fear challenges. In short, it has made me a better person in every
aspects.
The life at the university was not easy to manage because of moving out of the city to
study in other city. My university was included in first tier which was a dream to many people. I
prepared for entrance exam, studied day and night and revised again and again to crack it. I was a
good student in academy and may marks on the basis of which I got through initial level of
interview at my college. The competition level at university is high from the beginning. When I
took my first lecture, I myself assessed the way of teaching and other related aspects, to which I
realised that standard of education system is high and challenging. Ever student is required to
attend college on daily basis until and unless there is an emergency. Thus, attendance is must for
everyone and should not fall below 75%. further, there are curriculum activities which is
compulsory for each student to participate apart from study of subjects.
The above-mentioned are core challenges that will be continuing in future. Along with
this, there are certain criteria and expectations of university such as maintaining peace and
decorum in the class and campus premises, presentation on individual topics on every week, first
position in inter-college competition and many more challenges. Further, bullying, harassment
and related activities are strictly prohibited. Every student is bound to meet these as long as he or
she is studying in the university. I have analysed all challenges and future expectations which
will be faced by me in order to develop ways or approaches through which I can deal with these.
I have decided to make prediction about future on the basis of addressing future challenges and
expectations, followed by a detail vision by exploring every possible ways to meet the
expectations.
Challenges are unavoidable and expectations get high with time. Hence, effective ways
must be adopted to reduce the negative impact problems. Similarly, expectations should be
fulfilled. In every situation, the confidence should not be decreased. Further, a person should be
calm and compose and apply his information and knowledge. Further, it is necessary to meet
education standards, this will help students to get a stable future. Along with this, universities

award medals to students who score good in academics. Hence, a person should possess the habit
of learning to have immense knowledge which can be applied to have a peaceful life.
