Mumbai University - Lord of Bullshit

since today is sunday n m unable to do concentrate on anything significant so m updating my blog after a long time..

yesterday was my second paper.. MPC( manufacturing planning and control).. ya i know i can here your yawns till here.. basically its a theoretical n boring subject.. but thankfully there r some numericals too..so majority of us had planned to ride r luck on the numericals..

the paper was at 10 30, i woke up at 8 10, (common i went to sleep at some 2 30 or soemthing), n anyways i cant concentrate in the morning, m more of a midnite bug.. had a bath n then brushed my teeth (my exam rituals.. will rite a detail post about them some other time).. then quickly ate something n went to catch the bus.. thankfully the first bus tat came stopped.. normally this is the rush hour n its very horrible with all the stink u can almost pass out.. yeah tats ST(state transport) buses for u.. unfortunately for me, where my college is only these buses go.. so i have learned to live with it..

as usual didnt get a place to sit, arrived college by 9 30.. here a whole new scene awaits me.. normally durin such papers, no one is sure wot is gonna come n every one is in a frenzy tryin to be the next bejan daruwalla.. "arre ye pakka ayega".. "last time bhi aya tha".. "arre tune ye kiya kya, mujhe dusre college ke ladke ne bataya.. uske sir ne ye important bola hai"

n wen u c all this new stuff, u wonder wot u did from the past three days.. n then there is a panic attack nu try to grasp as much as possible in this 30 crucial mins.. this 30 mins is almost equal to the amount of study done in the past three days.. a micro crash course..i usually don touch the books before 15 mins of the exam.. but there are always ppl who want to quiz u.. "arre Non repetitve JIT phirse bata yaar" "SImplex mein hamesha maximise karne ka na" and the list continues..
finally its exam time, 10:25, all rush inside the exam hall as if gold awaits them.. after a few mins of frantic locating of our exam seets, everyone settles down n then try to rite as many formula's on the bench possible in five mins flat before the examiner comes..

10 30, the examiner comes, tell us to hurry up n keep r bags, mobiles out.. she distributes the paper n the formula's copied on the bench are pasted back on the last page of the answer sheet.. n then tallyin is done with each other.. satisfied, we wait for the all important exam paper.. we all rejoice seeing the paper is only 2 sided against 4 sided ones.. hopin the paper will b small..
now while the paper is distributed in the 1st column, the fourth column guy asks the first column guy, hows the paper.. (all in sign language, can make the dumb run for their money) n the verdict is awaited by everyone in the room.. the tempo of the room is set on his verdict.. n he gives the thumbs down.. a huge groan in the room n everyone awaits for the doomed paper..

after wot it seems a endless time period i get the question paper and first thing i do is scan the paper for the numericals i know well..no forecasting..fuck, cpm ..phew, no assigment.. oh fuck.. some screwed up LPP problem.. oh god help me.. give me strength..

in bombay university question pattern, the first question is compulsory.. n in tat question out of six, we had to attempt four.. so i dreadfull start reading the first question.. out of six i knew two well.. i knew this was gonna b a struggle now.. but in theory subjects the advantage is u can spin ur own yarn with being connected to the subjected.. now only what i need is great deal of imagination at my reckoning n lil bit speed..

i read the first question again n i wrote the answer number.. then for almost wot it seems eternity i went blank.. i was lookin to my right, to my left n every one was like making diagrams, scribblin off to glory.. n i was like.. wots wrong wid me.. actually i didnt know where to begin with.. finally i decided, hell with it.. m startin with wotever comes in my mind first.. cuz i knew tat once i start writing the thoughts automatically start flowing..

after much scratchin of my head after about an hour i finished the first question.. i was just imaginin the nightmare of the examiner whos gonna read this bull shit.. n i had written amost two n half pages per question of unadulterated non sense with lot of gaps n spaces.. then i attempted the numericals.. first one was quite simple.. twenty marks in my pocket.. the other one was a nightmare.. the iterations were never ending.. it was like goin in circles only to come back at the startin point.. i wasted almost 45 mins over there checkin my steps if i had calculated correctly or not..

after lil bit of help from the back guy n lil bit of cross checkin i was done with the paper fifteen mins before the closure time.. with almost attempting 75 percent.. in enggineering its the golden rule.. its not about how much u wrote is actually rite but its about how much u attempted..

then there is another hysterical drama yet to face when the exam gets over.. its about "arre tere ko iska answer kitna aaya" "kitna attempt kiya" "theory mein lag gai" "ye university wala sums kahan se dalta hai yaar".. mostly i run home before all this starts.. cuz the last thing i wanna c in this state is the wretched question paper..

I say to myself..its finally over,

2 down 3 to to go..
