Run up to placements === part 1


hey frnds m writing after a long long time...........but this is 1 phase of my life which i wanted to script down since a long time........it all started frm the oct last year...........the most awaited moment of our career......it was none other than our placements......the buzz was already around that companies gonna visit early this time......and the tension and excitement was already building up.

so the process started with our so called ppt( PRE-PLACEMENT TRAINNG ) classes ....... and the stuff which these companies ask for written test is nowhere close to engg standard........it was all normal common sense maths thing wid the grind of those dreadful english vocabs.the ppt classes begun and since then we never knew wen our day started and wen it came to end...........normal classes frm 10 that stretched to 5 in the evening..............then just 1 hr break and we had to rush back to attend ppt classes.

so the first day was quite a day for us......wid the long lecture of Mr Sujit pradhan........supposed to teach us personality development ( though wid his beards on he himself looks no less than osama )......and the experience was quite painful ...he went on and on self-prasing himself wid his so called 101 national and intertaional certificates and blah blah blah........and the kind of unbearable accent he has... he was in no mood to stop...........and that day only i knew that i m not gonna attend his class atleast.english mam was ok types but her rule sort of thing to take test at the end of every class made her very unpopular .... obviously among us.it all went upto 9 and till we had our dinner and reached our rum ....it was already 10..........so it was a 12 hr grind for us.......and after reaching rum we always had to arrange any movie to refresh our body and soul( ya movies r the best way to do it ).it all went on to become more and more hectic ........ most of the time we used to have our breakfast,lunch and dinner in the same clothes wid our bags and bfor entering our rum even 1ce......as the days passed on more and more tension gripped our minds.........and wid it the new year too announced its entry ........ bringing the actual dates of 1st comp visiting our campus quite close.

In jan it was time for tests ,tests and then more tests ........ they even started a 24 hr test rum where any1 can go anytime and test his skills on 10th standard maths..........and that boring english grammar ........ and all the rules that mam taught us.........infact intuition worked better than the rules coz more grammatical mistakes used to occur wen we followed the grammatical rules wat mam taught us.GD( group discussion ) practices also started ( yeah some comps have an extra round called gd....u can call it Bull fighting).the very first gd which i was a part of was no less than a fish market where ppl were just fighting around wid their voice and miss shweta tyagi being my opponent.......left every guy in my grp dumbstruck wd the sheer intensity of her voice.in all these hectic moments ..... the sole kool time that we used to spend was canteen ...... but thr also only placements talks were making rounds.
came feb and every1 started showing bit seriousness now.........wid every1 solving maths from 10th class........learning vocabs from the list of words that they gave ( i tell u mugging up those 500 words was 1 sort of PITA).......now i was discussing maths in chats also wid miss chits everyday coming up wid a new ques.........and while doing it i used to say her that we always gonna rem these days......though how much we cursed those days............it was no doubt fun and an experience of its own kind...................till the 1st company arrived!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
