Admission:
I had applied for the PUCET test for admission to B.Com-L.L.B integrated course in Punjab University, Chandigarh. I didn't prepare much but by luck i cleared the test and was eligible for admission. But the course has a 4 year duration and i had no interest in the field of Law. I had only given the test as a tryout since it had a lot of similar content to basic CAT exam pattern which i had planned to give after graduation for MBA from IIM. I did not want to waste an extra year and it might even have affected my motivation towards giving CAT exam so I chose otherwise. I did not apply for any other college other the giving the PUCET. Then i found out about my current college- DAV College, Jalandhar.
