That I don't really have to study, after all! Although the case remains more or less the same with all the engineering students, it is all the better in my college.

For people like myself, who believe in smart work 8) rather than hard work NIEC is the best place to be. No need to slog your butts off for the minors. Just come up with an innovative story [no I/relative/parent/president of the country was will ones, please] to excuse for your pathetic [read <5 out of 30] score and voila, there you get a good 17 or 18 on 25!

For the practical examinations, I have practically walked in without even a pen with me. It makes no difference whether or not you write something on the answer sheet and/or utter a word in front of the examiner in viva. Unless you've killed the teacher's dog or are REALLY hopeless or the teacher is simply bent on going by the rulebook, you won't get anything below 70 on 100.

That's what makes me, and believe me, a lot others like me survive the four years!
