1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.

After graduation, you won’t see most of your batchmates again so enjoy their company and you’ll be fine. Congratulations once again on your job offer. I wish you only the best for your future endeavours.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE just chill, relax and have as much fun as you can. NO amount of hardwork/upskilling before the job is going to help you. 99% of learning is done on the job. Enjoy whatever time you have left. The time period between when I got my job and when I axtually joined were probably some of the best days of my life. No stress whatsoever (you will not feel this again, probably for the rest of your life). I feel bad about the time I spent reading NDA research papers and attending those clementine courses made for us.
roam around,travel to another country if finances permit, pick up new hobbies. Just do not open another book. you are not doing anybody a favour. Please for the love of good, heed my advice.
