We will definitely miss everything about GOT once it’s over but the actress Bella Ramsey who plays Lyanna Mormont will miss standing up to grown men, she says! We can’t be any less proud about our ferocious Lady Mormont.
We can’t be any more happier about the fact that after a gap of almost two years Game Of Thrones has finally come back to screen. Every GOT fan admires all the characters on the show. Also, we can’t neglect the fact that though they may have their flaws, the portrayal of women on the show is still so intriguing. Amongst all the female characters we just can’t ignore the ferocious Lyanna Mormont. The lady of Bear Island played by actress Bella Ramsey recently in an interview said that she will miss shaming “a load of grown men”.
Ramsey, in an interview with The Cut, said that after the show ends, she will miss “the opportunity to stand up in front of a load of grown men and shame them”. Lyanna Mormont is one character in Game of Thrones that has grown a lot in the series. She is known for her badass nature and confidence to stand up against anything wrong.
Like we all remember her dialogue in season 7, “I may be small. I may be a girl, but I won’t be knitting by the fire while I have men fight for me.”
This aspect of Lyanna’s nature is something that makes Ramsey confident in playing her too. The 15-year old actor commented that the way Lyanna doesn’t hold her opinion back in a room full of grown men is something that inspires her to move beyond the fear of authority.
“I think playing confident characters also helps with your own confidence. Say you’re in a situation where you’re feeling anxious or nervous you can become a character and work through it that way. I’ll miss that about her,” she told The Cut magazine.
Game of thrones is indeed a show with the most celebrated women characters out there and Ramsey with her recent interview has just made us wait to see what else Lyanna will come up in Season 8.

Children should be taught to aspire to be successful, but success doesn't have to mean an IIT admission only!
Imagine studying for 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 whole years for the JEE exam only to find out that there’s only a very, very slim chance of getting into an IIT. It is a fact widely acknowledged that the IIT-JEE is one of the toughest exams not just in India but in the whole world. Apart from IITs, the NITs and IIITs of India also accept the JEE scores for admission. There are said to be a total of 23 IITs, 31 NITs and 25 IIITs across the country.
Now, let’s first get a few facts about the IITs right. First, according to the NIRF rankings of 2023, only 17 IITs rank in the top 50 engineering colleges of India and only a few (around 5) IITs are in the list of the world’s top 100 engineering colleges. Second, the dropout rate of IIT-qualifying students stands at least at 20%, with reasons being cited ranging from academic pressure and unmanageable workload to caste discrimination and high levels of competition within the IIT.
So, it’s quite clear that the journey of making it through IIT is as challenging as the journey of getting into an IIT. Third and most important of all, the acceptance rate or the odds of getting into an IIT are below 3% which is a lot lower than the acceptance rate of highly and very highly ranked US universities. Four, getting into an IIT of one’s choice doesn’t mean one will also get into a branch of one’s preference at that IIT.
