<p>well we can gather info ppl…just keep posting to where u all r going… welll this way ull knw soon if there are matches here…</p>

<p>as of IIT well ruships the IITJEE ppr i saw solutions to yesterday ensured even after getting right answers u misss out on 1 stuff which gets u back to wrong points… even if then ur class gets above 50% all…then party … coz well even experts have said this yr cutoff is gonna go much down… even prolly arnd 30% for sum reasons we cant see now…</p>

<p>SM</p>

<p>good to hear of the duke news … being negative confirmed… heheeh looks like strippers tried on their tricks…</p>

<p>the petition wont hold it back vampiro… really… the stuff will happen now… its almost final…</p>

<p>SM</p>

<p>30%,I mean what’s the point?</p>

<p>The focus should be on strong learning and not if you can cram up atleast 30% of the portion.</p>

<p>heeheh experts say this that MAths toughest in last 5 yrs </p>

<p>physics toughest in last 4 yrs… </p>

<p>Chemistrty not easy but simple…</p>

<p>So they estimate the stuff to go down… more so also coz the reservations are not happening this yr due to EC’s intervention and also due to increase in the number of seats …</p>

<p>SM</p>

<p>havaldaar…300000 ppl take the IITJEE…wat wud happen if everyone got 85% and above…how wud the selections be made…its the population that has made this exam wat it is…</p>

<p>Im saying the whole JEE process is messed up. Yes, for a large population there’s little else you can do, but the whole 30-35% cutoff process shows just how little emphasis is placed on true understanding.</p>

<p>After spending 2 years of your life studying college level stuff, the examiners only expect you to have retained 30% of the matter in your head. Seems like a waste of two years to me.</p>

<p>bull’s eye pal…its wat ive been saying for a long long time…</p>

<p>signed the petition as well…it in all probability wont deter them idiots but still…</p>

<p>this petition wont work…</p>

<p>hey wassup sachit??..hows life california!!!..made up ur mind yet abt the coll??</p>

<p>look people… applying doesn’t neccesarily get you into college, but you still apply right…same with the petition :slight_smile:
and fyi the bill has been sent back by the cabinet to the drafting commitee…Now if the thing was final the cabinet wont send it back as they had agreed with all the terms of the bill before…Now they want to buy time to look at the state of the nation…if anyone of you knows anything about 1990…you’ll have an idea what kind of an uprising can take place.
here’s the link again

<p>

I certainly dont. Can u explain?</p>

<p>there were a lot of revolts and a ‘hungama’ during the intial reservations of the 22.5% and it was sickening…Many people hurt themselves in the processions…The famous delhi university’s president setting himself on fire is a scene which is remembered till date…</p>
