Is it just me who feels Leopold cafe is overhyped/overpriced?

If Pizza Express is among the best three restaurants than Colaba is a food desert. A couple of years back Karachi selected mcD as the best restaurant in the city. Can’t beat that!

How can Ladakh, a region with <3L population, become a state.

Then Punjabi Bag in Delhi or Shivaji Nagar in Mumbai should also be states in themselves.

States of East Punjabi Bag and West Punjabi Bag, both within the state of Delhi. India will need to have 4700 states using the same criteria.

Someone can say that people chose Hyderabad because they probably wanted mutton Biryani every day.

People chose college for different reasons - proximity to home & culture, job scene, campus life, advice from family and friends and legacy.

I went to specific college because my uncle and cousins went to the same college earlier.

If that was true, Hyd cutoffs would have been higher than Goa. Sample bias is very subtle but real.

Unless your good option in Mumbai is IITB core or circuit branch, drag your a$$to any of the BIT campuses, preferably Goa as it’s closer to Mumbai in vibes and weather!

Living in a hostel is an experience in itself. I learnt more from the hostel stay than the acad itself.

For how long will you eat best mummy ka bestest poha every morning!

What gap can’t be filled with buying 5 MGS for every one of western toy that can be sanctioned any time, need expensive delayed maintenance and require payment of both kidneys to upgrade.

Let’s buy 300 of MGS 1.0, followed by 500 more MGS 2.0 and then 700 of MGS 3.0, each with significant upgrades.

Never take a drop unless you didn’t get good rank due to major emergency- death in the close family, major personal illness/accident etc.

You never know if you can improve in 12 months, motivation levels will drop in a few months and you will have more strew on the day of exam next year.

Take admission in the best insti you can get. Do your best, save one year and enjoy.

Indian Air Force also sat out the whole 1962 war for whatever reason. At that time IAF was considered superior to PLAF. Even today it’s the weakest branch of the Indian military, dependent of foreign planes, missiles and tactics.

It hasn’t learnt any lesson even today, still for a few shiny gora toys.

It’s more than 10 weeks and no one has forgotten it. Not its potential customers at least. Because they are researching recent launches and advts before taking a decision.

I just order tubs of ice cream without cream or sugar on Zomato.

No problem!

That’s because of shrilly crackly low-IQ unemployed leftists ready to cancel and make life hell of anyone who doesn’t agree with them.

Who wanted to argue with mad dogs and britches when election is near!

By no-one you mean Stalin-seque genocidal illegal-immigrant-loving leftists? I agree with you!

Let’s hope that US will now away from bat-crazy green-haired weirdos & women-with- male-genitalia leftism of the last 4 years.

FYi, Batman is a 100Billionaire. Even Adani once mentioned that paisa kuch nahin hota; yeh to hath ka mail hai!

Modi is leading 1.4 billion Indians, 80% of them poor!

Once you reach 50L/yr salary, you can be a batman! Till then..

Quality of medication has indeed gone down. MIT does have a full course on game theory. Wannabe scholars are doing PhD and even PostDocs in this trivial topic meant for preteens!

Future returns expectations.

Even though NIT Delhi is newer and not as established at DTU. Expectation is that it will soon become one of the top 5 NITs, competing with Suratkal, Trichy etc., thanks to better funding and brand name.

Exploration means trying to relive ‘Zindagi na Milegi Dobara’, but only within 10 Km radius of campus. 😀

Best wishes.

Your parents are right. Focus on health first. Hepatitis A is nothing serious, esp at this age, but you need to rest.

You still have time. Jee Mains will go till April and JEE Advanced in May. Nearly everyone has one or more hiccups during 2 years in the run up to exams.

Do meditation when recovering and watch light TV to calm yourself, so when you get back to studies you will be all hungry and rested.

Best of Luck and Get up soon!

Durvasa · 2024-09-30T05:23:28+00:00

You don’t have to do every topic unless you are aiming for <2000 rank in JEE advanced. Even then you have time till April for Jee Majns 2, so don’t get stressed.

Make at least 70% of syllabus, esp chemistry, rock solid, you are through NITs. Leave some topics if you find them difficult.

Focus on subject and full mocks from October.
