Exams are just around the corner. Students tend to lose their sleep and the level of tension goes above all parameters and similar is the story with parents. Undoubtedly exams are of great importance, that lets you know where you stand. But little do we understand that excellence is not everything. An average student can also be successful in life. The Khurki in some renowned personalities is what made them popular today. Their grades didn’t count much. Rather, their dedication and experience did. These successful persons are the ones who understood their talent and polished it for a better and fruitful life.
7 Mukesh Ambani
He is a doer and not a talker. The richest tycoon of India Mukesh Dhirubhai Ambani speaks less about his successful story. But the visionary man who gifted India with Reliance Jio had dropped his MBA program and headed to become the Managing Director of Reliance Industries.
6 Sachin Tendulkar
We know him as the God of Cricket. Sachin Tendulkar has occupied special place in our heart for his dedication towards cricket and firm belief that one should have. Sachin was introduced to cricket at the age of 11 and when he was just 16, he went on to become the youngest Test cricketer. But the fact we need to focus here is that Sachin only studied till class 10. The Master Blaster is socially connected. This year we’ll also see his story on screen.

Aam hae humara Aamir. Yes the acclaimed Dangal actor studied till class 12 and followed his passion for acting. The pure soul has touched us with his commendable performances in movies like 3 Idiots, PK, Taare Zameen Par, Lagaan, etc. He believed that college was not for him, rather his path was different from others and we are grateful that he followed them.
2 Bill Gates
The renowned American businessman and Co-founder of Microsoft, Bill Gates stands to be on the top post and has taken his venture to become the world’s largest PC software company. But to pursue his passion and dedicate time to bring a change, Gates left Harvard at the age of 20. Today we all know where this eminent personality stands.
1 Smriti Irani
The typical Indian bahu character played by Smriti Irani is still fresh in our mind. The Indian politician and former television actor and producer has crossed all boundaries and immersed as a strong personality in her field. Holding the post of Textile Minister today, she has also taken care of the Education Department. But Irani could only complete her studies up to class 12. Though later she completed her educational course.
