[I cant help myself at this point, how can I help you :-( ]
I : ????..Sorry sir
QT : You have 3 blue-colored balls and 4 red-colored balls…
CSE : Sir, Please specify that eco-friendly colors have been used.
QT : Ok. You distribute them into 7 urns. What is the probability that at least one urn is empty.
I : Sir, To simplify things, I assume that one of the urns is closed with a lid. Now I can safely say that the probability is one.
PR : Ok my friend, You have ordered a dosa at some dosa center. What is it – A made to order, made to stock, assemble to order or an engineer to order.
(I thought, finally an easy one….My eyes glew and I started answering in great confidence)
I : Sir, As I am an engineer and I have ordered it…So it should be an engineer to order :-)
All Profs : ????
BFA : Ok. So once you pass out from XLRI and become a manager and then order a dosa…what will you call it…
Myself : err..Sir I guess there should be some more classifications in your question such as manager to order, doctor to order, B.SC to Order, BBS to order….
(Profs start laughing)
CSE : ok, Where is Tirupur located??
I : Sir, Its in Karnataka I guess…err tamilnadu…Kerala most probably…

BFA : yes yaar, you can help me yaar… I have taken 20,33,262 from my friend at an interest rate of 10% p.a. I used it for starting a firm. I refunded 2,23,121 at regular intervals. Then after third year I gave 2000 debentures of Rs.2,100 each to my friend. Then I converted these debentures into shares and finally to preferential shares.
Now tell me yaar… what do you appreciate in this??
I: Sir, I appreciate your memory of recalling everything and your honesty of returning the loan.
CSE : Ok, tell me whats the average water consumption at your flat for a single day.
I : Sir, it depends on how many of my flat-mates take bath that day.
CSE : Ok. Lets assume all have taken bath.
I : Sir, then it depends on leisureness of the people as this determines how long they would like to take bath.
OB : hay-lo, hay-lo…What would you mean by a HALO effect.
I: It’s the effect of making people quiet when they go out of control by just saying HELLO two times.
(I was happy that I started my flow of correct answers)
QT : What is the probability of you getting into XLRI provided that I haven’t selected any student in my last 10 years of interviewing experience. Will you apply exclusive probability or conditional probability?
I : Applying conditional probability, Answer would be Close to zero.
QT : Finally You gave a correct answer my friend. You can leave now.
I: err…err..
BFA: Don’t worry…God is great and Life goes on…
(I leave sadly :-( )

FRAXER Identification simplified
FRAXER identification simplified:
Well friends, its high time on campus and till now many of us might have seen, liked and disliked fraxers. Here are some qualities of a fraxer:
1) A fraxer is the one who gets surprised the most in surprise quizzes. Moreover, even announced tests take him by surprise.
2) A fraxer has the capability of getting a glimpse of a 50-page case through his friend by the time he reaches learning center from mess.
3) A fraxer is the one who can be seen only changing the slides throughout the presentation.
4) Most difficult question for a fraxer on any Monday “ What have you done in last two days? ”
5) A fraxer knows the safest position in a typical BFA lecture so as to get one of the easiest questions. He also accurately estimates the question that he can get while his row is being interrogated.
6) A fraxer is the one who knows which professor concentrates on which area of the class and hence always tries to sit where the prof’s attention is the least.
7) A fraxer is the one who carries a laptop to library even during quiz time.
8) A fraxer is the one who carries 5 text books to the library just to keep all of them in locker and have a good time with his laptop. Seems like there are too many thieves in hostel.
9) A fraxer is the one who always does the appreciation job in group meetings which helps him not to scratch his grey cells for new points.
10) A fraxer is the one who is always on toes in any group meeting trying to find the best time to freak off.
11) A fraxer is the one who is clueless about text book and notes until quiz is announced or a rumor of surprise quiz floats.
12) Every professor has his/her timing of entering a class for lecture. Some enter prior to the lecture timing while some enter later. To know the exact timing of any prof, consult a fraxer.
13) A fraxer is the one who can give you exact time in seconds for reaching from any place in campus to learning center.
14) A fraxer is the one who is the happiest after any quiz as he always feels that he has done better provided the effort given by him in studying.
15) A fraxer needs just one notebook throughout any term. Not to mention, this notebook contains weird drawings and quotes at the end of the term.
16) A fraxer is a one who expects a wet night even in day time.
17) A fraxer is the one who sleeps in a class and still has the efficiency to discuss what was taught in class.
18) Given a dilemma amongst various priorities of work, a fraxer adds one more priority of sleep and brings it to top.
19) A fraxer can easily identify sincere and hard-working persons in class and forms a project group with them.
20) A fraxer is the one who wont jot down a single point in the whole 90-minutes lecture. He instead searches for the person who is noting down all the points who can help him later.
