Our project review and general proficiency was held this week and both went better than expected. The project was completely last minute work; though we had a year to research and slog for the project we had procrastinated till the last minute to do most of the stuff; like report making and printing of the report, the preparation for the presentation commenced only 2 hour before the actual final review started. Anyway not much Ques were asked by the externals and everyone ended up satisfied. On the other hand the general profeciency review was a pleasant surprise in itself – the topic asked was completely in my fav turf ie general quiz.. ahh never had a more delightful inteview. I was suprised that the teachers knew so much about different places and culture especially about south India , I had always thought of them to be ignorant when it came to general awareness.
