Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

Quo Vadis ?




Whither thou goeth ? ( In Shakespearean )

Where are you headed ?  ( In Queen’s English )

That about sums up the findings of AMCAT [ Aspiring Minds Computer Adaptive Test ], conducted by the Mumbai University , for 5,000 final year undergraduate students of 20 colleges in Maharashtra , between Nov 2011 and Feb 2012 ( Source : DNA / 04, May 2012 )

Of these 5,000 students who appeared for the employability test , only 50 could be placed !

Mumbai’s Thakur College participated in the exercise in Dec 2011 , but none of its 930 students could be placed !

The Employability Testing project is expected to cover all 150,000 final year students , studying at 400 colleges

Now , given the several recent cases of “ leakage “ of examination papers of the University , who can guarantee that even AMCAT Test may not get “ compromised “ !

After all, jobs are at stake and companies , all over India , are cutting back on recruitment of fresh graduates

With  regards
