Sir good morning. I am 27 years old. I have been investing Rs 10000/- each in SBI Mid cap fund, Small cap Fund and Rs 10000 in ABSL Flexi cap fund and Rs 5000/- in HDFC Midcap funds. I may please be guided whether to continue or to switch to other funds. Thank you sir.
Ans: At 27, you're making proactive investment decisions, which is commendable. Let's review your current investment strategy and explore potential adjustments:

Assessing Your Current Portfolio
SBI Mid Cap Fund and Small Cap Fund: Mid-cap and small-cap funds offer growth potential but come with higher volatility. Consider your risk tolerance and investment horizon when evaluating these funds.

ABSL Flexi Cap Fund: Flexi-cap funds provide flexibility to invest across market capitalizations based on market conditions. They offer diversification and potential for growth.

HDFC Midcap Fund: Similar to SBI Mid Cap and Small Cap funds, HDFC Midcap Fund focuses on mid-cap stocks. Assess whether the overlap in mid-cap exposure across funds aligns with your diversification goals.

Considerations for Continuation or Switch
Performance: Evaluate the performance of your current funds relative to their benchmarks and peers. Consistent underperformance may warrant a review.

Fund Manager Track Record: Assess the track record and expertise of the fund managers managing your investments. Consistency in performance and adherence to investment objectives are key considerations.

Fund Objectives and Strategy: Ensure that the investment objectives and strategies of your funds align with your financial goals and risk profile.

Potential Actions
Review Fund Performance: Conduct a detailed analysis of the performance of each fund in your portfolio over different time periods.

Consult with a Financial Advisor: Consider consulting with a Certified Financial Planner (CFP) to review your investment strategy and explore alternative fund options based on your goals and risk tolerance.

Consider Diversification: Evaluate the need for diversification across asset classes and investment styles to mitigate risk and enhance long-term returns.

Conclusion
While your current investment strategy demonstrates a focus on growth-oriented funds, it's essential to periodically review your portfolio and make adjustments as needed. Assess the performance, objectives, and risk profile of your funds, and consider consulting with a financial advisor for personalized guidance.

Best Regards,

Hello, I am 3 yr neet dropper.in 2025 it will be my third attempt... I'm trying my best to crack neet ...i don't know what will happen will i score good marks or not ... please help me in suggesting good career options if not crack neet .....there are many options through neet marks also like bhms , veterinary...etc. i will also give entrance exam also like cuet ,gbpuat ,....but i want that what to choose which course will be best for me ...i want to make my life good and happy... having a good degree, good job ,...
Ans: Hello.
Have you analyzed your failure in 2 successive attempts in the NEET examination? If yes, then the question is what you have done for improvement and not then again the question arises why not? Here, I would like to suggest you focus now only on the NEET examination which is your 3rd attempt. Don't think about any other options right now till May 2025. After the NEET exam is over, you have ample time to explore the options available. Depending on your score in NEET 2025, we will guide you at that time. But yet, if you are confused, then looking towards your question and anxiety, you need personal counseling where you can express yourself face-to-face. Only after the NEET exam is over, you contact a counsellor for one-to-one counseling. Till then, keep mum and focus only on NEET. Take this exam as your mission and project. Work on this project, apply forces from all sides, success is there which is waiting for you eagerly.
Best of luck for your bright future.

Some tips: (1) Analyse separately Phy, Che, Bio (2) Prepare a list of hard topics (3) First focus more on the topics which are easy for you and then try to excel in hard topics (4) Appear more and more online/offline examinations (4) Prepare your short-cut file for all subjects (5) Prepare a file for each subject having only synopsis of all chapters (6) Try to solve the problems at the lightening speed and observe the period on regular basis (7) Create your time table to revise the topics on regular basis (8) Do not hesitate to ask your difficulties to your teachers, if you have joined to offline classes (9) Keep the habit of marking the answers which you know 100%. Don't guess the answers and mark them, as there is -ve marking scheme. (10) Be calm, quite, and smiling all the time to release the tension and always have a healthy chat with your friends.

If dissatisfied with the reply, please ask again without hesitation.

Career
I am looking for a job, I had uploaded my resume in job site. A consultant called me & introduced himself telling he know some of the openings. He had a detailed discussion about my job & my skills. He told need to register to his consultancy for scheduling interview. I registered with him & he got me a interview. Interview was done by the company through skype. I could not see the company persons. They told only they can see me. Interview went on well & regarding salary I told my expectation but they told it is not possible & they told their proposal. Finally I agreed to them. They gave me code & told to visit the company for next round. Consultant called me after first round & told recruiter is very happy with the interview. Regarding salary he told why I agreed for the proposal,he will discuss again & asked to pay charges for some of his services which he will refund the day I visit to the company & take the orders. I paid him. He told there is a increase in salary he has discussed with recruiter & again asked for the money I did only partial payment & further will not pay anything. Second round also happened through skype instead of in person. Interview went on well & salary offered was good comparing to before & there was a big jump. Recruiter told they have planned to give additional responsibilities so they have increased. Finally they gave me a date to visit company. I asked when will I get the order, he replied he will send to consultant as I was taken by them. Till now i did not get the orders, consultant is keep on postponing. Now he told visit to company date is also postponed, he will update in next week & not to worry as job is confirmed. Now not understanding what to do, am I been cheated or wait.
Ans: Dear Mr. Keshava ,

There are many unscruplous job agents who are fake and claim themselves to be a Placement consultant. In short You have been cheated . Before paying any fee for registration , you must ensure that the agency is genuine . If not don't even upload your resume . You may write to company , lodge a complaint against the agency. If the amount is very high , pl. take the help of police . .
