Exams nearing. All the buzz about studying somehow miraculously starts even in the most sleepy places. I will never understand why we study for marks. I don't object that I don't want marks but given a chance to choose between CGPA or percentage I'd go for the latter( Neither if possible). But anyway like I can't make the dog pee in the bathroom I can't make the grades go away. So it is satisfactory for me if I get the maximum in the subjects I like. Which are Programming and English. And a bit of math too.
Last semester I managed to get what I want in Coding and english. Want more? I was the only one in my class to get 'S' ( that/s the highest ) in english . (I'm blowing my trumpet I know :D...Eppoyavadhu thaan chance e kidaikkudhu).....So this semester I decided to make it two outta two.
I got 26 on 30 in the first test. So I figured my internal marks are safe. And also I got 18 outta 20 for the seminar I handled. And I got 58 outta 60 in the final test too. Kinda like the fairy tale ending eh? Nohoooooooo. That can't happen can it?
It seemed very very possible though.
That's when they decided to take an average for the twenty internal marks.
An average of the first two test marks.
And what had I done before they let out this fact?
I had cut the second test.
And to rub salt in the wound it turned out that I had needed just 15 on 30 in the second test to get an 'S'.
