Rhythm of Life

It all began with my husband, Gaurav taking his GRE test, although the seeds were sowed during our undergrad years in MNIT itself when we started reading word lists from Barrons book. He got a score of 1350 and how can I forget mentioning here that I got 1390 after fifteen days in my GRE test. After that TOEFL came easy and we both got decent scores to proceed on to the next challenging task of deciding on which universities to apply to. It is indeed one of the most difficult part I must say, because each university application costs between $ 50- $80 (plus some additional cost of sending the official GRE and TOEFL tests scores to them, and mailing the official transcripts etc.) How many universities should I apply to and which?? My advice to anyone who is at the same stage of the admission process is that make your budget the deciding factor on the number of schools you want to apply. Assuming 75$ to 100$, as the total spending per application, you can decide on whether you ha

Long ago (about 500 days ago, isn't it long enough?) we had compiled some information about the admission to US Universities and here are some links to them. I said long ago, because we don't want you to trust the information in these links without verifying them at the actual website. Another caveat is that most of the information is useful to ECE and CS aspirants but at the least some names and web-links can be useful to others too. I'll try to add more information about and update some of this, but I don't know when. So till then this is what it is :) 1. Info for univs1 Ohio Jhon Hopkins Michigan UC, Irvine UC, Santa Barbar 2. Info for univs2 MIT UC, Berkley Stanford Univ UIUC GTECH 3. Info for univs3 RPI USC Cornell Rice UT, A&M UT, Austin UC, SD 4.

Hi everybody I attended a two day discourse taken up by CHINAMAYA MISSION here at IIT Roorkee. I want to share a few points which I learned and which could be of help to all of us. DAY 1 The topic was “HAPPY PARENTING” Few points discussed were:- What is the job of a parent? Why do children these days feel bored so often? What should be given to a child and at what stage? Well then I’ll make an attempt to explain the first question… The job of a parent is similar to that of a potter. A potter uses both his hands to make a pot. The inner hand is expands the pot or makes it big, while the outer hand controls its shape and size. Similarly parents should raise their child with an inner hand of love and an outer hand of discipline. The inner hand widens the vision of the child while the outer prevents him from getting out of control and fall prey to perversions. Furthermore, the job of a parent also resembles that of a gardener. The gardener does not grow plants. This is because growth is s
