Gauri’s Thoughts

Is it relevant any more?

Those multiplication tables you crammed up ? ….No, i use either my mobile or Excel sheet these days. Those spellings teachers tried hard to correct ?..No, I have my MS-Word instead.

So does that mean that those 10 years you spent in your school were all just a waste of time?

No, I don’t think so..I believe what we learned in the school was ” How to learn?” . I believe that the marks card we used to get was rather a measure of “How well you can learn?” and not “How much you know?”. Otherwise, why the hell do you think a company is keen on your 10th Std percentage while offering you a job? I believe its your “learnability” which is being gauged through your marks. What else is important in these days when technology changes in a blink of our eyes?

Thanks a lot my Alma Mater for the greatest lesson you taught me -
