A few thoughts on switching lines. https://t.co/3JIXR2G4eJ

@SolitaryReaper_ Your friend is different from their family. Perhaps the family had other ideas. Especially the next generation has very different opinions. Trust your friendship. Don’t decide anything based on one incident.

@Nick_Davidov Do they lack anything? I think that one needs to lack something to even consider dreaming. If a child has everything, what is there to dream about? What is there to strive for? I'm not in Silicon Valley or the US, but it is the same with my kids.

@subashr232 Please add Sambar to the list. When I moved from B'lore to Chennai, the one thing I was looking forward to was the Sambar.

@karthik2k2 Doesn't it widen the gap? What happens to the child who just missed the threshold? The labelling that happens with this system would become a blow to the self-esteem and confidence of the average child, while it would be a leverage for the chosen children.

@RajeshwariRW Because the ug entrances are based on the NCERT text book and hence favour cbse students

So everything I did as a kid is universal 😂

What a statement!
“Fortunately I was poor”.
When there is focus, all odds can be overcome. Massic respect.

[Dr. A. Velumani.PhD. @velumania]

1974 to 1978 I studied in Sri Ramakrishna Misson Vidyalaya, Coimbatore.
Reason to go there :

City colleges fees: Rs 1000 to 3000.
Hotel fees : 200 per month.

In SRMV: (25 kms from city)
College fees: 300
Hotel fees : 75 per month.

Reason to travel by train:
I could not afford even that Hostel fees.
I found a Govt Harijan hostel in city which was free.
But bus fare was 60 paise one way. Monthly Rs. 30.
That also sounded too costly.

A passenger train used to run in that route and its student quarterly pass was Rs. 7.

Reason to talk about this platform:

Train
In: Dep : 5:50 am. Arrival: 6:25 am.
Out: Departure: 6:10 pm. Arrival 6:45 pm.
College started at 9:00 am. Ended any time.

Time to kill:
6:30 am to 9:00 am.
Any time to 6:00 pm.
Average daily 6 hrs.

What I did:
Sat in this Railway platform and studied Maths Physics Chemistry

How did I get BARC job:

My 1000 days and 6000 man hours intense focus on Avagadros, Ohms and Pythagoras

Those days my mother was only earning member of family. Rs. 3 a day. So I had to do all sacrifice to get a degree without denting her arithmetics much. She gave her 4 bangles to pay my college fees.

What I wish to say is:
“Fortunately I was poor”.

Be it college or Career or business
“Patience, Focus, Frugality and Discipline “ Gives slow but sustainable success.
I took my wife to show how a railway platform made a Scientist. Pic :2015.
