Coronavirus: A Huge Business Model?

Image
The Lancet , a very popular medical journal published a report that blew my mind! On the basis of this report if you read the treatment protocol of the World Health Organisation with regard to coronavirus we will be astounded! Whenever a virus (be it chikungunya, dengue or coronavirus) enters our body then the virus begins to multiply and starts to spread but only when the body temperature is below 99 degree fahrenheit. Our body uses fever as a weapon against the virus and the temperature of the body rises in the state of 101 to 104 degree fahrenheit. In this state the virus begins to this integrate and becomes inactive, our immune system becomes active and throw the virus out of the system, but as per the treatment protocol of WHO the moment a person's temperature rises above 99 degree fahrenheit, the patient is administered antipyretic medicine and the temperature is brought down, so the patient’s morbidity rate, mortality rate and length of illness only increases...N

Everything wrong with the subject Psychology!

The subject itself is as mysterious as the human mind for the common people. Being a Psychology student, I am frequently asked what I learn/have learned in this subject. People are also confused about the career opportunities & scope of Psychology, i.e., whether sufficient jobs are available. ● Only a few people know that Psychology & Psychiatry are 2 different fields, even though they are related. ● Some people also ask me whether I can read faces & foretell what they think presently & some mock me like they are afraid of me as I may read their thoughts or the negative characteristics of their personality.  I’m sure that most of the Psychology students would have faced this situation at least once. ● It’s funny when some people believe Psychology is all about hypnosis. ● So many stigmas are related to Psychology. Actually, the aim of a psychologist is to assist people   like a friend, to deal with their life in a better way, but still, people are afraid to

Is Humanities really easier than Science and has no scope at all?

Image
The answer to the question in a single word is NO! Studying Humanities is equally onerous as science and commerce are. People (generally from Science stream) usually develop an idea that humanities are just about reading and mugging up the facts and figures which in real sense is never true. 1. You have History and Political Science which require your understanding and remembering skills at a huge extent. You simply can't remember all the major events happened during over past 5000 years in history without understanding and linking things together nor can you get good grades in Political Science by mugging up the whole constitution and contemporary world political events, for that too you need a logical understanding of things! 2. Then you've Geography & Economics which are nearly 80% conceptual (especially Geography). The approach here is totally different from what it was with History and Pol. Science, so students need to develop their mind in this new s

Science vs Arts/Humanities Stream!

Image
The debates of Science Vs Arts and which one outwits the other is an eternal one. If science is about the fact, art is about fiction and debates. If Science delves into the world and beyond, Arts is about searching within. Well does this debate sound an interesting one! However, for many reading the article, this debate will hardly make any sense and instead, I would be asked to not even probe it further. Why? For a few ‘ignorant’ ones the debate hardly makes any sense in India. Most of the students either have aspirations of becoming an engineer, scientist or a doctor and therefore have no choice but to opt for science stream at the 10+2 level. Some opt for science voluntarily, others have it thrust upon them while still others choose it since it’s the happening stream in India and friends have opted for it. Benefits of Studying Science Studying science equips a student with essential skills that make them employable Students can opt for professional streams like enginee

Being a student of CBSE Class 10, I want to suggest the following things : In every aspect,  Arihant's All in One  is really really helpful. It is far better than that of Xam idea, evergreen, together with or any other publications. And I can tell you why :  First, It does not contain only the sample papers and previous year question papers but also deals with all the important topics discussed in NCERT Book in a sequence wise manner (unlike Xam idea/other publishers) Second, it gives a piece of complete information about the syllabus of the current academic session in a really understandable manner that which chapters are going to come and which ones have been excluded. So go with Arihant's AIO and become doubt-free about your syllabus. Added to this, it also deals with 'Top Tips and Tricks for writing answers in examination' which boosts the confidence level of students 🚀 And the most lovable one, it does not contain any extra/additional info
