Exams---the bane of an IITian's existence

Why do we have to endure this, this hell-like experience?The people going to hell are at least saved from the calamity called JEE.Moreover, the sinners enjoy their sins their whole life and then endure hell whereas the non suspecting entities called FUTURE IITians are expecting a rosy future at the point of time when everything goes awfully wrong with the announcement of , you guessed it, EXAMINATION!!!


Now any person will naturally ask WHAT THE **** IS WRONG WITH THE EXAMS ?? ( The stars have to be substituted by HELL.If any other word came to your mind, you need to follow Baba Ramdeo daily on SANSKAR Channel at 5:30 am in the morning....) It is really difficult for any non-engineering student mind to fully grasp the grave bearing of exams on our lives.In today's world we see innumerable organizations, persons, institutions etc etc devoting themselves to STRESS REMOVAL TECHNIQUES or any other jargonic collection of seemingly harmless words which ultimately mean the same thing.All people who have had a close association with the life of an engineering student will know very well that we are total followers of the above mentioned entities in that we totally remove stress from our lives.How one might ask.Simple....Remove anything remotely related to study from our daily lives.Then life is stress-free: sleeping late, playing computer games, eating out whenever the craving occurs, watching movies ( suitable for under-15 audience of course ), long non conclusive chats, crying on our own fate for not having girlfriend(s), teasing the entities who wander around the college campus hoping to teach something to someone etc( These entities are officially called 'Professors', 'Profs' in public conversations and I really cannot type what they are called during private conversations, forgive me !! )......
But as soon as exams arrive, all hell breaks loose.One occupation flourishes during this time...XEROX.If there are 50 students in a class, 48 of them xerox the notes of the 2 remaining students as we believe in UNITY OF ACTION.Faces become FRUSTRATION PERSONIFIED.How can the profs expect us to know so much in only 1 day of study??Why don't they understand??Every prof is an a***o*e person in his own unique way ( If you thought anything other than aWESoMe in place of stars, Baba Ramdeo beckons you... )Then classes are held in the hostel rooms of the students who know even the slightest bit about the concerned subject, xeroxes are exchanged, sleep is forgotten, coffee is consumed in unreal amounts, rooms become total trash boxes, textbooks are first searched among the debris in the room and ultimately borrowed from someone else, 10 hrs before the exams questions like " Abey course mein kaun kaun se chapters hai kisiko pata hai kya ? " etc become common and with all these activities going on in a sombre environment, students think what they will tell their parents when they will fail in the paper which they are about to give....
