14th February, 2010 ...
It's a Valentine's Day... Somebody proposes...Somebody rejects...Somebody celebrates...
Whatever...It's a day of happiness and freedom...for Singles , not for lovers...
Anywayz...Happy Valentine's Day for everybody....
People (mainly couples) are enjoying the day with their partners. I...(Being single)...should write the exam which I don't even want to excel. I bought the application because at that point of time , I didn't had a single job. So as a back-up, I applied for it.
Now I have atleast a job (Cognizant)...Not so good one... It's a software job... but My kind of a job. Therefore, not interested in GATE anymore.
Zero Preparation...Zero Technical Knowledge...There's no meaning in writing the exam...
But there will be a guilty feeling if I didn't appear exam for which I paid the fees ... That too just because of lack of interest... It's a matter of just 3 hours or even less...So I had attended the exam . I thought it will be a great timepass... :)
As the exam is of not great importance to me... maybe I should do some malpractice. But when I reached the examination hall ( Dept. of Civil Engineering ), there was no one belonging to EE ( Electrical ) near to me. Shashank Gupta (My classmate) was there in the same hall. But he was quite a distance away from me.
65 Questions with Mathematics, Aptitude and Technical (Electrical).
Some questions are for 1 mark and some are for 2 marks.
1/3rd of the mark(1/3 or 2/3) will be deducted for the negative answer.
The paper is for a total of 100 marks.
After seeing the question paper, I had this feeling that GATE paper is nothing if you are good with your college lectures. As I am not so good, the paper was difficult. I was able to manage the Aptitude and Mathematics section but the Technical section....Hmm...As I said "Way out of my league". At last I marked all the questions ... some are for sure... but the others are complete guesses.
180 min------65 questions....Too much time for a guy like me...with Guess-work ( It doesn't consume much time. )
My exam was over ...half an hour earlier , even with a double-check. But the invigilator didn't allow me to leave the hall. So I had to wait until 12.30.
After coming out...People were discussing the paper... I didn't involve much in it...What's the use? It's already over...
On the same night, I got the key for the Question paper in the net. I crosschecked it with my own answers I marked. A lot of Negatives. At Last, Score is around 38 (Min.).
Let's See what will happen ... when the results are out... I wish for Respectable percentile and rank... I don't want miracles... Because I don't need it in this case as I am not interested in doing a M.Tech anymore...
