   Thanks! :) How much did you get in GATE?

   As for the morons, sometimes ’tis good, sometimes it is bad, yes?

   Plans — get into whatever college is willing to take me. :D

    No point in reminding him that. Even if he were to get 1st rank, he would still call it fluke and co-incidence.

    i had an AIR 71. the good thing abt the morons is tht u rarely fail :p moreover, all the reservation junta somehow manages to occupy all the lower berths – i tried max hard to get a ‘D’ in IIMB, but failed. finally in the last term i had to get a prof catch me red-handed bunking the class, in order to achieve the unique distinction :p

    ATB for IISc. do keep us all posted!

    Cheers!

    :) Let’s see who calls, and if I can make it through the tests and interviews.

    Major — CS, obviously. Trying to get into OS/FS/Storage

    Yup. Out of 1600. I didn’t tell you? Whoops! grin

    But I got a 5/6 in the essay, which is serious suckage. Lesson one for moi: Take the argumentative/free-interpration topic, not the descriptive one.

    Alas, no! The GRE doesn’t seem to count past the first round of elimination. Which is only fair, all considered (it’s a test of ridiculous English and childish Maths).
