I applied to do it because I wanted to show off my talent for business and maybe persuade someone to hire me. l'm a keen viewer of the show, and I'd always wanted to appear on it as I felt I’d be a very strong candidate. I'm the kind of person who won't be beaten, so I felt that the show would be an ideal environment for me. It was exhausting, but also rewarding and fun. I enjoyed all the tasks we had to do. Having had this experience, my advice to other young business people would be: know what you want to do, be creative and decisive and you'll fulfill your potential. Personally, I’ve learnt that there are all kinds of people in business; it's important to be tolerant of the various ways that people do things, and to value each individual, because everyone has something to offer.

As I'm a big fan of the show, it was great to have the opportunity to appear on it. I thought it would be a bri!liant way to see how far I could go in the competition and get a taste of working in business. I had the time of my life - it's the best thing I've ever done! I think the experience has made me more confident in my strengths. I'm not that good at some of
the stuff we study at school, but I realise now that, with enough determination, I can get to where I want to be in this environment. To anyone hoping to get into business at a young age, stay focused on your goals, and don't be put off by constantly being told what you can't achieve. I've learnt that you have to co-operate in business, and that the work of a team is always more suecessfüul than that of an individual.

When the opportunity came up to take part in the show, I just couldn't turn it down. T've aiways been a fan. Like everyoe who walches at home, I ałways believed I could outdo everyone else - until I was actuaily there and found out what was expected of me! I 1oved every minute though. It really made me grow up. I've learned that in the business world a broad range of abilities is necessary to really get on; it's not enough to be very good in just one area. I advise young business people to make sure they put enough effort in if they are to achieve their goals. Natural ability is important of course, but it's not enough on its own.
D. Arjun, 17 years old
I applied for the show because I thought it would give me the opportunity to demonstrate that academics don't just sit and study books all day. Also, I thought it would allow me to learn more about business. I knew that I'd never have the chance to do something like that again so I decided to make the most of every second. Obviously, winning was fantastic, but I think that meeting all those different people during the competition was the real highlight for me. To young businessmen and women, l'd say: never give up on your dreams. If you believe in yourself then anything is possible. From taking part in this show, I' ve learnt it's vital to join forces with others who share your objecti ves and that the success of a business depends on the team that's running it and their passion towards whatever it is that's being sold.
