What made easy taught me.

          When i came to Made Easy i was just wide eyed farzi engineer having no idea of what future has in for me,What i have in me or what i want.I was stupid, idiot and i don't know what else i think most importantly NON SERIOUS.

     First few days or may i say months were spent getting the hang of things.Knowing what terms like laws,assumptions etc meant. Though i thought i know a lot at that time i was practically naive. I was proud to be able to do classes for so long.Bragged about it . But coming back i just collapsed and hardly opened the book.I thought i was quick minded to absorb the things. But this was not so.With time as i gained knowledge i lost confidence on my so called sharp brain. I saw people working twice as hard,getting selected,going away all the time.I kept on waiting for my time.There was always something to do in the corner.Some chapters to read from book, some questions to solve some concepts to understand.Things were not easy as they seemed. Whenever i felt i have done a topic there was always a question,a exam to challenge me.Sometimes i took things light heartedly sort of chalta hai attitude. It did me wrong. People who struggled with concepts went ahead. My all confidence was lost. I forgot things easily,sometimes didn't paid attention to minor things,did calculation or unit mistakes. A time came when i was just lost. My classmates were getting ahead,time was passing, few results but no job.You know everytime i was asked what i was doing my heart skipped 10 beats.I stopped going any where, talking to friends.I never thought this could happen to me.Time, money,selections just slipped by.

       But then i took admission in this college where i am the only made easy student around.I see now these 2 years have changed me.I want to learn now, not just pass, i actually do questions in class get appreciated.Now i am passionate about learning.I know how real life changing teachers are.All of my teachers are below the mark made easy teachers like amit kakkar sir, parveen kulkarni sir etc.Even in class i keep on thinking how these teahers have taught the same concept. How boring, unpassionate ordinary teachers are! Somewhere i my heart i too want to be a teacher.In class i feel like telling them you sit and let me teach.
              My knowledge in every field(thanks to GS classes!) is far from anyone here.Even in terms of concepts I could compete with teachers sometimes.
       Though sometimes it feels stupid to be here.Everyone is so ignorant. So lazy,so imcompetent, so unpassionate i get irritated sometimes. But that was how i was before made easy happened.I always wanted to me to be like this.A real engineer, a real intellectual,whom everyone respects for her knowledge.In fact i am considered so out of the world intellectual that no guy talks to me for non study purpose.My boyfriend always imagined me up like that.No matter how much i joke, i just can't be part of students here.Sooner or later i am found telling them something and they listening wide eyed.And obiviously asking how do you things like that.

       I don't know whether all the trouble,all the time ,all the money was worth it.But i find myself turning out to be as i wanted to be.Right from my child hood.I can finally say i am good at something, teachers could sense i am different.I come around as girl of substance and knowledge, not pseudo intellectual.And of course the confidence that comes with it.So i don't have to fake a attitude(Which i never had in first place).I am no more a good figure,okay face.I am someone to be looked upto.Finally i am taken SERIOUSLY.

God's plans..

I just don't know what he has planned for me. i ve got selected in BEL when i least expected it.
I have alreadt taken admission in m tech college and i am loving it.College is great and now when i have known the importance of study i am putting my best into it.Future appears bright but i don't know which way.I will tell the college's name because it's great opportunity for mechanical engineers and very few people know about it but my identity will be in danger.But admissions are over so next year.In fact i am thinking to start a new  blog about my new college life.Whatever.....

Preparation of a PSU Exam

Well our HPCL Exam is coming near and though there are not much seats of us still one can keep hope. Especially after heart shattering result of Vizag steels, rotten exam of BEL and worse than worst exam of CIL. And now ONGC recruitment is out.
  As most of you know I cleared ONGC, HPCL and NPCIL last year.Trust me those selections were totally unexpected and now when i don't find my name on the selected list i could understand what my friends must have felt back then. I was always kind of lucky one. I cleared all written exams of my campus selections despite of being blackest sheep of our college in academics with % less than 65. Without solving a single sheet of career launcher i got 88 percentile as i in my 4th year. I got 94 percentile in english despite of my being not able to understand a single news article till 10th class. I ve constantly failed maths and one time physics exam after my 6th standard. It was only in boards that my percentage rouse upto 80 and i don't know how? I ve never touched 70 mark from nursery. I was always in 50 -60.I just don't know what right or wrong i did.(Well i know but i still got results when it mattered)

 And now today when i picked up my formula copy(made easy formula copy) to be precise i just didn't know what to read. I ve read all the formulas in previous exams too but it had hardly helped. They were simply of not any use for one of the many reasons.I forget them sometimes,my brain didn't worked as it should have and most importantlyMost of the questions demanded time,calculator or worse both. Then i thought of picking up GATE book and remembering all questions but is it possible at such a mature stage of my preparation? When i had finally let go of my recalling properties and was all out in understanding and application of basics, question papers started playing unfair game of devoiding me of my weapon calculator.

I was always the quickest mind.Whether in speaking lies, or thinking innovative answers to a viva question i hardly knew.Trust me the only thing i knew about mechanical engineering was it spelling. I could barely tell name of 5 subjects when i passed out. But these two years of heart breaking, back bending preparation for understanding everything has snatched me of my spontaneity.It was something i was sure is never going to leave me.I was so proud of it, making fun of others as dumb and slow mind. Trust me i ve read notes of every subject atleast 15 times baring a few. I must have done examples atleast 5 times. In between my preparation was disturbed by various reasons but how come it is worse than last year when i was clearing almost every exam and i didn't knew many a things i know now.
 I have taken admission in mtech college in a stream which is quite far from mechanical.You know what as i kept on understanding the depths of mechanical engineering i lost trace of my clever wit quick wit always a answer on lips personality. Has rubbing of my brain against walls of ME had made me blunt instead of sharp.I was so sharp before.
When i don't find my name on that list i repent for the times i took it for granted.All those exams are coming again.I don't know whether to quit or try harder.My hopes are bruised, and brain is reading tired of all the stuff again and again, my eyes accustomed to familiar concepts hardly grasping anything new.Everytime i get struck in problem my heart says not again. I don't know whether it is new beginning or the end. 

Coal India written test..

Hi,
This post is about coal India written test we gave.I wouldn't have written about it as i had forgotten all about it.The experience was bad enough and totally worth forgetting.But a person who's following my blog actually made a point to e mail about it's absence.I wish he had commented on any of my blog instead.But still point taken.

  For next year student paper had 200 questions 100 tech and 100 non tech.
  Non tech questions were fine but i really can't forgive them for keeping engineering mathematics questions there in aptitude and GS section.Come on guys give me a break.Isn't it hard enough you people are giving huge amount of them in tech section. I didn't revise maths at all though i prepared it for GATE.
And what's the fascination about year 2009 dude.I had hard time recalling miss world or miss universe of 2009 leave alone miss earth of 2009(Or 2011 for that matter) We had plenty of clock questions and loads of history.
   Well earlier(pre right to information law) PSU's used to lift questions from R.K. Jain(Yes,this is the most hated book for ALL made easy teachers) or from each others paper.Some questions were right some were wrong but still we had a chance to attempt them. But now when they have one for the readymade things.You know lift your questions from GATE papers you already have the answers so no chik chik no jhik jhik.

Let me tell you , our MADE EASY solved GATE papers is the new"R.K. Jain" now.So learn by heart the questions and answers.That's what time demands now to have a decent job.

 On the positive side time was plenty but questions were too much numerical to even read them or bother solving.Rattafication is the mantra. NO need to revise formulas or concepts. Who cares???
As for as i was concerned after the exam i was again found hitting on my head for the following reasons.

1. For not studying as usual.I am very serious about watching TV instead.
2. Fot attempting questions in hurry and in some cases marking responses in hurry.(What's the fascination with black pen?Pencil was soooo.. good).

     3.Not opening GATE book.It's the new bible for PSU's

P.S. Some students were caught saying the got the paper in advance and thus solved all questions.It was being said that paper was available in 4 lakhs to 2 lakhs.People went as far as saying CIL is demanding 13 lakhs for complete selection.Who knows??                                            






I kind of wish this was true atleast it would give me reasons for not getting selected in the exam.By the way i have already told my mom about it.She was convinced ha ha ha..

BEL Written Examn pattern for Engineers and my story

I know i am quite late in writing this but may be this post will help students of next year so just ignore it.(I tried to write a serious blog but got carried away so you can read.It's looks kind of funny to me.My BF says self appreciation is my thing so be it)

Well in Bel exam we saw the same peculiar things which started after ONGC 2011 exam.And that is they expect us to calculate with our our minds. In ONGC we were actually expected to calculate Taylor's coeffs and diesel Engine efficiency without calculator in of course very limited time.When i asked this from sir he told they just copy paste questions from previous GATE exams. In BEL exam this was extremely apparent as we were given mathematics(come on!! not maths! but a PSU paper is always unexpected) and yes trade mark questions of GATE linked questions.(can u believe it ! i was the 1st one to solve the thermo question in class but in exam i was clueless).


 So my advice is please just read the questions of OUR made easy gate handbook as this trend was seen in NPCIL and in few others also.But on the spot technique is to mark the questions you know you can solve but taking some time so that if the time remains you can come back for some brownie points.

My exam went bad as i ve shifted to home and i ve hardly known a student who come home and opens book and actually study.Yes i know we ALL carry loads of books home promising ourselves to study but alas! Its a target very few can achieve.I was not fully prepared and kept pushing study and revision to last day and when the last day finally arrived i did not studied for the following reasons.

• Syllabus is very wide it's impossible to cover it now.
• We can't predict PSU questions as they are random so why bother.

• I must not take tension on last day so i should keep my mind fresh so that in could approach paper with new outlook.

I know i play such stupid mind games with myself.At exam i was kicking my a** for not studying those queing theory formula (Trust me they have something against me.No matter how many time i put them in my mind they get misplaced in exam time)  and few other topics.At least i would have got the confidence of "yes, i ve worked hard for this i'll do it". But instead i was getting"I have not studied but lets see how many questions can i afford" feeling.


Whatever i decided to study for CIL exam but you can see how unfocussed non serious i am.Meanwhile i am getting a good dose of "how much time and money you will further waste let's get you married" drama from my mom.

IES made easy solutions are wrong

WEll i got to find a very interesting part about made easi ies 2012 solutions given on it's website.It's that in Paper 2 staggering 26 questions are wrong. Yes and in paper 3 only 3questions are wrong.Well if you are looking for right answers you can visit www.lnecgate.org .


I know most of the students have already done their part of answer checking and now must be basking in glory of it enjoying holidys. But not those who are not sure about ies, how must be gearing up for the next PSU exam.WEll i am kind of struck in middle.I ve got enough marks but nobady is sure how much are enough so i am hanging in the middle. Meanwhile i ve decided to get in PSU and keep on syudying till i clear it next year with 1st rank (imagination)


It was actually a easy paper and i got so depressed in last days that i gave up on it.I always regret not studying more while giving the exam.i did so many wrong answers and overconfident answers. I am still kind of upset but atleast i found out IES is not above my level.It's just required more practise and concentration.I actually contemplated not giving the exam a night before but carried on as i thought it would feel worse later.


I know i took longer time than necessary but i was from a private engineering college with no classes and my weak basics of school had made it more worse.But now i have covered that lonh journey investing a lot of time and money over it. You know i was hardly a average student even.At least now i can claim i am a fully fledged Mechanical engineer.
But i don't know if all this will be worth it or not.You know you hardly use your subject knowledge in jobs.I have not planned to write all this but i just thought there be people there wondering if they are worse among the lot.I guess nobody is.WE all have our share of struggles.
Sorry for being to preachy but if any of you sincerely feels demotivated you can e mail me.I 'll try to guide if you consider me something.

Swadesh kumar sir.. (His NEW Industrial book)

Not many people here will be knowing him atleast not as a teacher as he left made easy this year.As you might know he teaches production and his book on production technology has become a bible for all mechanical students.One should be really grateful to him for writing such a concise precise book on such a vast subject.
  Production is a subject which we all think as a luck and memory game.After all how is one supposed to recall all those materials, tools ,composition etc etc.And if any unknown question used to come we all were absolutely clueless.Even logic seemed to defy production.But it is un ignorable as it consists of more that 30% of syllabus.And psu 's too concentrate on it even in interviews.
  But all of these myths were broken by Swadesh Sir.He has a humble background from UP.He did B.Tech from Muslim Aligarh University with a old medal.Got into bhel after doing M.tech from IIT Delhi.Left that job and prepared for IAS. Here he got highest marks in mechanical Engineering which is supposed to be not so scoring subject.But missed the selection by few marks.Just to guide people and build their character he jumped into research and teaching.And undoubtedly is the best one.


 You can hardly find someone so modest so humble so simple.He can earn as much as he wants but just to fulfill his dream of making a difference he is operating a small coaching institute in hyderabad.Where he is owner,receptionist,Scheduler,helper and sometimes even office boy.He owns a scooty which is again reminder of his feet which are firmly planted to ground.


 His knowledge of any subject is superb and his way of imparting is even better.He makes a person feel so comfortable in class and generates a natural interest in his subject.Even a 8 hour class seems short.(mind you i am the kind of person who even sees time in kulkarni sir's class).Actually it's Swadesh Sir who has raised my expectations for teachers.


 The best part is that he is still learning and excited about his subject.So you get to know how things actually work.





p.s. I  wrote this blog to inform you that Swadesh Sir has written a INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING BOOK.Not by made publications.The book will be out in market 5 or 6 months later.So all those who need it's photostat need to pay rs 150 only including postal charges.If you are interested e mail me or comment to know phone numbers and address.

Krishnan sir..Strength of materials..

I am not very sure of his name because he never tells his own name or introduction.So we all can just guess about his name.I think it is S M Krishna.He is i think faculty at some engineering college may be NIT Warangal as he speaks a lot about university exams.
 He is part of trio of teachers which makes Mechanical Engineering a pleasure at Made Easy the other two being Amit sir and Kulkarni sir.He handles a mammoth subject like strength of materials and makes it feather like.I don't think any teacher gives the feeling of Deja Vu as he does in own subject.All the bending and torsion which gave us shivers becomes something done with hand.First time in our life i got to understand what questions means.Getting acquainted with jargon is itself biggest achievement.
 He seems to be a father like figure and respectable.Though my recent brief experiences with made easy teachers proves they are just lesser mortals otherwise.Out of class they are vulnerable,so unsure and with questionable character.May be i kept in too high esteem for that matter.Too much expectations and assumptions on my part.
 Well i have hardly seen him really angry on whatever condition is.He has a temper of saint,like a line on water..barely there.He starts speaking in anger,mutters too what now's and gets conscious of their frequency and smiles in no time.Any thing that could divert his attention in that mood.But i really want that nobody irks him too much.He seems to be such a good human being and nice soul it seems a sin to trouble him anyway.
 He teaches very passionately and responsibly.I feel if somebody doesn't understands anything he personally feels bad and goes out of his way to repeat anything n no of times.When on stage he teaches like he is worshiping God.With complete conviction and dedication.It really hurts me when somebody makes fun of his what now's.Come on spare him guys.Even if you try you can't be even one millionth part of him as a human or Som teacher.
 I like it when he asks questions and doesn't get favourable reply despite of his sincere efforts.He smiles more to himself and starts explaining it all over again.No hint of attitude.The answer of his questions is infinity most of the times.
My suggestion is to read his notes n no of times and solve questions.Because our memory is very fickle.We tend to forget quickly.Even if we think it is impossible to forget things like that.You can never trust your brain exam.Take it from me.

Circumstances leading me to MADE EASY...

When i joined made easy i was a mechanical engineering virgin.I read books just for passing exams.I had no feelings for concepts though sometimes i found them amazing.But it was a world which was holding up it's mysteries to me.To escape it altogether i had made up my mind to go for MBA that's why i joined my job in first place.To gain some experience and then opt for MBA at nice institute.
  At my job i realized there is hardly any difference between working of MBA or B tech.You are supposed to take work from your sub ordinates pressing them sometimes inhumanely,Criticize other departments and most important waste time in giving presentations to your boss or others.I worked in designing field which was rather repairing job as we hardly do any creative work in India.All day sitting at computer made me forget my i opted for mechanical engineering in first place.It would have been far better if i had taken IT to sit in front of computer.In this way at least i would have been paid more.
  More retrospection and introspection on my side made me realize that i govt job is much better.Nowadays it pays better,provides resident,there is prestige associated with it and more freedom.I absolutely love the society feeling it gives.And some where inside the passion to do something for my country kicked in.
 So without wasting much time i joined the latest batch possible.


But my this impulsive decision has hardly bore me fruits till now.A grossly unutilised rank of 2400 in gate and few psu selection where i got out in interview hardly matter.Now i know it's the final selection that really matters and gets you out of this waiting phase.It's said this kind of waiting phase comes in everybody's life.And i know i am taking my time to take off but once i do it i am going to leave all of them behind.


The key is not to lose patience and keep working harder.And like every other Made Easy student i secretly harbor feeling to be Made Easy teacher someday.It would be so great  to be on the other side of stage,whiteboard or whatever.To be in those shoes who inspired us, instilled ambition and quality of perfection and more important being passionate in what we do.
What's your story guys????
