(Everything below is wat i think is rite. and i aint an expert or something so i dont guarantee that watever follows is rite)
All the major results r out. Some people got excellent ranks, some got avg and some didnt get selected at all. Congrats to everyone, doesnt matter which 'some' they belong to.
I belong to third category of 'some', i e, i didnt get a damn position in any of the entrances i had given. I wud be lying if i say i m not disappointed but yes this failure has taught me something that i wud like to bring forth thru this article. I m writing this stuff on this site coz i think this site needs such stuff the most.
This article basically concerns guys belonging to my category, tho others mite join in as well.
So guys wat r u planning to do :
1) Thinking of dropping an yr?
2) Joining a non-popular unbranded college thru a paid seat?
3) Joining such a college and preparing for JEE simultaneosly?
4) Taking admission in a course other than B.Tech?
Watever u mite be planning, however confused u r rite now, do one thing - ask urself the following ques :
Why was it that u didnt get a desired rank in the college of ur preferance?
did u lack somewhere in ur preparations?
if u seriously think that ur preps werent upto the mark, drop a yr, dont join any college, just drop a yr and study hard. Join a coaching centre if u feel like doing it. if u r confident of ur abilities and self-discipline then i dont think u wud need coaching. if u r not disciplined enuf, then join a coaching. but plz think a 100 times before dropping a yr if u r not sure of ur abilities bcoz u wud stand where u r standing rite now even after dropping a precious yr if u dont have confidence in ur abilities.
now if u think that u were prepared well but messed up with the papers, u r probably lying to urself bcoz u must have given more than one papers and probability doesnt say that u can screw all the papers. theres something lacking in u,it was neither the mistake of the paper or the paper setter.dont bloody blame them.
and if u think that u were prepared well but dont know wat went wrong and if u r still to understand why u didnt get desired ranks, then this article is pretty much for u. u probably r not meant to be engineers. scrounge urself and think : do u really wanna do B.tech? is there something else u r passionate about? some sport that u like more than most things in this world? some hobby that u r unusually fond of? some activity that u can do no matter wat ur mood is?
if it is so, then forget B.Tech, trust me, it sucks no matter wat the world around u says. there r lacs (probably millions) of students who enrol for this sucking course ( no offence meant) every yr. b.tech used to be an elite course, but it is no more now coz there r so many colleges these days which offer u paid seats that the scene now is : every tom, dik and harry can do b.tech in any damn field. if u wanna become a tom, dik or harry, its ur choice but remember ur choice sucks even more.
lets come back to ur interests, ur passions. u probably thot of b.tech coz it guarantees placements, money, job and such secondary stuff. and u probably didnt follow ur interests coz it didnt guarantee money. bad thinking, i wud say.
think about it. is a b.tech, mbbs, llb and such degrees pre-requisite for success? do the people who dont have these never earn money in their lives? the fact is that most of the popular, rich and famous people (i dont think i need to give u names) dont have such degrees ( tho i have no stats to support this).
the general mistake that most non-successful people commit is : they pursue money and dont give a sh*t to their passions. follow ur dreams, heart-felt dreams that is, and money will follow u. if u have full confidence in urself and ur passions then dont listen to wat others r saying, i dont say money is not important but i think u urself r much more important. dont strangle ur dreams. u r here on this earth with a mission and plz dont die before accomplishing that or u wud die a loser. be a rebel. the world doesnt revolve around money, money revolves around this world and if u r a hard worker and a true dreamer and a rebel too, then the world will conspire to send money to u.
'bade hokar bade admi bano' but remember every bada admi is not an engineer. there r ways beyond the popular courses and every course can give u watever u want if u have genuine feelings and interest in it. remember Hugh Hefner( i hope its spelled correctly) is a millionaire.
parting words : even after reading this, if u cannot decide wat is ur real calling, then plz contact a counsellor, dont feel ashamed or hesitate in contacting them coz their business thrives on people like u .
judge urself before taking ne step, analyse ur abilities. and yes, the most important thing : if ur parents, family, friends and society call u mad and crazy when u decide to make ur own way in life and follow ur dreams then tell urself : this world belongs to crazy like u, not retards like them. go ahead, achive ur dreams and yes : be crazy, always.
comments r welcomed to tell me that i didnt write so much in vain and my last one hour was not a waste.
All rite then, bye and take care....this is sankydreams signing off.
