Got my call letter for interview for the Common Wealth scholarship (for PG in the UK :O) It came by speed post(Some speed!!!!) .. For the interview on dec 8 @ Delhi,it reaches only today.Alright if that isn't a problem ,they are asking for some referral letters from college.Even if that is n't the problem I dunno if I'd get it (owing to stringent Placement cell conditions @ college )
The scholarship (Govt of India,HR dept)is worth loads..Pays you the whole bulk of your fees and stuff..!
Well the odds are all against poor me :(
After a brief thought I threw it away,thinking it just isn't gonna be possible for me to attend this year. Even if i got to college on dec 6 to get the 'impossible referal' ,im not sure the right people would be there on college holiday.. and well if i return successfully dec 7 flights totally booked(shortest path algorithm just isn't satisified) WHATEVER !
As i was tellin this to a friend,I said "vada pochey" to which she said"dont worry god'll give u a bigger vadai" :D

Question:what is 2 x 2 ?

Elementary school student : 4 (without thinking)

High school student : 4 ..I think

Grad school : (uses the scientific calculator ) maybe 4.000000

Post Grad : Writes a code snippet and tells that it may be around 4

Ph.D scholar : spends 6 months on thesis and finds a new programming language that's fit for solving such problems and then tells that ,the program says 4,but I have doubts even though I have debugged.

MORAL : We are born geniuses,Education ruins us !!
