True or False? False! There is a third category of students who simply study smart. Let's face it, the Indian education system is a minefield. Negotiating this minefield is a source of great strain and anxiety for Indian pupils and parents alike. It is often joked that during exams, students look up for inspiration, down in desperation, and left and right for information! Who can guide students to develop good study habits and get better results? Best-selling author Ashwin Sanghi (along with co-author Ashok Rajani) presents a power-packed little book that provides simple, straightforward and effective hacks that are a sure-fire way to obtain excellent grades.
He is a regular contributor to the Op-Ed pages of the Times of India. Ashwin has been included by Forbes India in their Celebrity 100 and by the New Indian Express in their Culture Power List. He is a winner of the Crossword Popular Choice Award 2012, Atta Galatta Popular Choice Award 2018, WBR Iconic Achievers Award 2018, the Lit-O-Fest Literature Legend Award 2018, the Kalinga Popular Choice Award 2021 and the Deendayal Upadhyaya Recognition 2023. He was educated at Cathedral and John Connon School, Mumbai, and St Xavier's College, Mumbai. He holds a Master's from Yale University, USA, and a D. Litt. (Honoris Causa) from JECRC University, Rajasthan. Ashwin lives in Mumbai with his wife, Anushika, and his son, Raghuvir.
Ashok L. Rajani was educated in St. Mary's High School, Chennai, Loyola College, Chennai, and College of Engineering, Guindy. He joined Andhra Bank as a departmental officer in 1978, took the banking exam (CAIIB), completed an MBA (Finance) and went on to teach in the bank's Staff Training College. After retiring, he taught himself the APA guidelines and edited engineering-related technical papers and Ph.D. theses of Indian and international candidates. He also taught freelance classes on communication skills and management for B.B.A. and M.B.A. students while editing several books for Indian, British and American authors.
Ashok speaks five languages and resides in Chennai with his wife, Sulochana, who is a gynaecologist. He has a son, Siddarth and two grandchildren. Teaching is his first love.
Among the messages that I received after the book on luck was one from a student. She wondered whether a book along the 13 Steps pattern could be developed to help students like her study better and thus score better marks. I instantly thought of the person who could write it-Ashok Rajani.
