My Experiences of appearing GATE

I was quite excited to appear for GATE.It's not that i was well prepared or well equipped to face it.But its because i didn't have much expectations from it as i had not prepared much.My situation was much like minnows Bermuda,Holland participating in WC.They are more excited in playing WC than big guns because they have nothing to lose ,but lots of experience to gain.I had a perception that my center DAV CSPUR would be a hi fi place as it happened to the city's best school.But the place was not that great ,the room was gloomy,morose kind of thing.Their was also no one in the room to admire or adore .But the most pathetic part was that the exam was 3hrs long.
But among all these adversities their was one good thing, as usual i was alloted my favourite window seat. Atleast i can spend my time looking at the road, watching kids play and crows fight for bits of food.The children were shouting and screaming more than playing a game which was somewhat similar to Hide and Seek ,but there were very few places to hide.They were playing on the road and were under the risk of being run over by vehicles.This is the real India which lacks infrastructure.
Now ,i think i should talk about the exam "GATE 2011".As many of you might be knowing, i am not that good in my branch paper, so i was unable to understand some of the questions.The ones i think were easy i couldn't solve ,beacuse i was unable to recollect its formula or concerned theory.I just attempted the questions from the aptitude section,this was finished within 35 mins.I think our education system needs some change some kind of modification which will prevent people like me clearing exams although they know nothing.
Now i calculated my attempts it was just 14,if i have 100% efficiency ,which is impossible to achieve, i will still not make it , i anyhow need 30 marks.So ,i took a risk a gamble.i marked some as 'B' and rest as 'D'.Because people only remember winners.Can anyone remember who lost in 2003 wc finals.You will think for a fraction of second and say ya i know it was India.After some 10-15 yrs people wont be able to remember about 2003.People only talk about 1983 edition.Their is not much difference between the last and second best side,but the similarity is that they all didn't win.On the WC trophy only the winners' name is written.I dont know whether i was right or wrong ,but i didn't have much options with me.
Atlast it was 12, i was free to leave the room. I hope not to go through all this again.
