Matter of one year!
There was a time when the value of one year was only understood by a student who lost a year in college. Today, the definition has changed.
Getting through the college of choice is not a matter of capabilities, but more of being able to clear the gap of that .2 per cent to secure a seat in a coveted engineering school. We spoke to a few who have dropped that one year.
It's about not making compromises. I know I am capable and will get into Iit next year.

Songs of the soul
It is not said without reason that Bollywood film songs are the folk songs of the urban population of India. Indeed these songs connect people who speak different languages ranging from Kashmiri to Tamil. The feet of the young and the old tap in unison when film melodies are sung or re-sung.

It's all about money, honey
A survey results have indicated that people are willing to choose higher-paying jobs over their happiness. More than 2,500 people were asked which job would make them happier - a job which paid 50,000 pounds with "reasonable" hours allowing them 7.5 hours sleep or the one paying 90,000 pounds with "unusual" hours allowing them just six hours sleep.
