362

<p>hey anyone in touch with shabeen? havent heard from him for long!</p>

363

<p>may the grey matter be with you shashank.
i find it odd that we wish everyone good ‘luck’, as luck clearly has very little to do with exams such as IIT…</p>

<p>oh well just kick arse.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>PM or Email me the following, PLEASE:

  • Exact Dates ?
  • What about accomodation, food, etc.? How are we (I) gonna get/manage it?

<p>The meeting at Bombay amongst the three of us from TiT was really a great experience. Some excerpts from that meeting is here:

<p>hey shabeen, nice to hear from u!!, neways best of luck for the iit results and what happened with mit w/l?

367

<p>is the mhcet anything like ap’s eamcet? here you get admission into some college with any freaky rank… </p>

<p>of course, even the best in the list suck bigtime</p>

368

<p>

</p>

<p>you couldnt be more wrong…</p>

369

<p>Hey Shash…all the the best then !</p>

370

<p>

yes…</p>

371

<p>what i meant was that a complete idiot isnt gonna get lucky and crack the exam… at most luck will give you ±2 marks… which i guess could make/break an IIT decision…but it isnt that big of a factor… i mean if u’v consistently worked hard and ur intelligent i dont see how ‘luck’ will stop u from clearing it…</p>

<p>barring ofcourse god smiting with with a bolt of lightening on yourway to the test center…</p>

372

<p>

</p>

<p>Err we better decide that soon ourself :slight_smile: </p>

<p>but date wise i think it would either be on the 27 or 28 of june ( is that okay for others ? )</p>

373

<p>hey ppl…
this is basicaly a litle off-topic(As if thr was ne on-topic)…neway…the thing is i am trying to get a SkypeOut account…n they want the credit card verification number besides the credit card number…now wat is tht??? :confused: …i cud only find sme number written at the bak of the card whr the signature is…but they want a 3 digit number…n wat i have is 7 digit number thr…:confused:…if neone seems to knwo abt this…lemme know…thanx thr…cya…:)…</p>

<p>btw…am still ‘J’ abt ppl meeting up in delhi…:(…</p>

<p>nor did i knwo thr was one happening…rathr happened in mumbai:(…</p>

374

<p>Behind the card you’ll have something like this
1234 3456 4567 6789 999 <- 999 is the verification no.</p>

<p>And I think only VISA has a verification number, so I dont think you’ll need the verification number if you’re using another Credit card.</p>

375

<p>aneesh…at teh bak of the card next to the signature…thrs is only anumber lik… 4589 345 …bus no more numbers…so is 345 th code???..n ya ofcrose i am using visa only…and u up so early??..how come???</p>
