Why do Indian students study? Is it just to get a job, or is there something more? What is driving this relentless pressure that students face in our society, especially when it comes to securing jobs, and more specifically, government jobs?

As a student, have you ever sat back and asked yourself, “Why am I studying?” Or as a parent, have you wondered, “Why do I want my child to study so much?” These are questions that don't get asked very often but have a significant impact on our education and career choices.
