One of the very amusing pieces of "gyan" that we got from our seniors in JNTU was this.
When you sit in an exam, the rule is to not concern yourself at all with what is asked in the question paper. You just write all that you know.
It was a very great and amusing philosophy. One of the many we got from our seniors. (One other about exams being that it is a waste to read all year long. A flask full of "Chai" and a kilo of mixture the night before the exam should do it all;). Yeah, thanks Vijay!)
Well more recently, I was thinking about this in a more serious context. Oftentimes we are so absorbed in impressing the world with what we know that we forget what is actually required of us. Too serious eh? Well, of late I have been in one of my philosophical moods ;)
Did those JNTU pearls have so much wisdom in them? I wonder ;)

It was fun to fill in junk lines inside answer papers, to see whether the proff will actually catch'em.. Or sometimes, repeat the same line few times in the answer, to make the answer look "big".. hehehe, those were good days!!
