*To be read in a news reader's monotone*
(A very Generic
definition.)
A species of disheartened, sad-looking students who are going to appear for the JEE examination- an elimination process that
aids in the shortlisting of students for engineering colleges in India.
This species can be easily identified by having a look at their eyes, faces and bodies which appear dead, dull and anything but graceful respectively.
They can be found behind stacks of
Books or at hellish places called "coachings for JEE".
Places where the probability of finding them- staying true to the JEE Aspirant spirit, I'd say psy^2- is relatively
low include schools, and just any geographical location which makes them
happy.
These sad creatures have been to hell while preparing for this elimination process which has contributed immensely to their deranged appearances. They spend more than 8 hours
studying on an average which I should appreciate but I
don't because, they end up losing their love for learning before the actual learning even begins.
Even so, their determination is commendable. They one ultimate goal in life; to get into an IIT. This goal sometimes causes
happiness when achieved and other times i.e. most times causes dangerous impacts in their young minds- suicidal thoughts to begin with.
Basically, these
kids are messed up. Messed up by an exam- an exam that simply seeks out to eliminate
99.3% of applicants.
I feel sorry for them.
I feel sorry for myself.
Kalpit: (with
tears) *whispering* I was an IITJEE aspirant too.
Aman: *sighing* Yeah...we were screwed from the beginning.
No one:
Not a
soul:
Me: Why did I ever decide to pursue engineering and become an IITJEE aspirant?!
