IIT is Over!!!

Hey,

This technically isn't a typical Society post... so true fans of 'nothing' bear with the loss or something. I wrote the IIT-JEE on Sunday. I had gone for classes on and off for about two years with 'off' being the keyword here. So with absolutely nothing in my head and with 'We are the Champions' in my ears, I wrote the fabled entrance exam at the SBOA school in Mogapair.
Well, it went as expected--badly. Actually, it was pretty OK except for Chem which everyone else seemed to find easy. But 'pretty OK' doesn't get you into IIT. We'll see...
Almost 3 lakh people from all over India wrote this exam and just 4000 get in. The odds don't look good (and neither do the evens for that matter~). Atleast IIT ain't the end of the world for me. But I know so many people who would give up everything they have for another shot at the entrance. Why? The education system in India is seriously screwed up and it needs to change. Maybe we should pull an RDB on the education minister or something. And people wonder why the yuva leave the country!!
Well, one thing can be said ... its over for the year. And lakhs of school kids will be waiting for their results only to be disappointed again.And again.

May the force be with you!
