Simplex Method

Sometimes I wonder how I managed to fail so many times during my graduation. A moment back I was looking for my LPP and transportation model notes. (BTW I am pursuing PG diploma in ORM). I managed to get those from my best kept secret treasure. (Well, my parents don’t think so… and they even offered a helping hand towards dust bin. For my mother it’s not even worth than 5 Rs/Kg from raddiwala :-(
Anyway these notes are really good and helped a lot to learn transportation in just ten minutes for which I was struggling for whole of the Sunday at Vaibhav’s place. (He may term my ‘whole of Sunday’ as 30 min including a nap) But the point here is, even after doing so much of hard work I never cleared a semester in one shot until seventh. I heard a rumor that since the University was falling short of funds they found this innovative way to raise it up, other wise who else will fail in a single subject for seven times, paying Rs 450 for each attempt.
No, I am not joking. There are quite a few evidences to prove this theory. This incident took place in my third unsuccessful attempt to start Elec. m/c III. Ten minutes after distributing the question paper Shailendra (he is my best pal and accompanied till sixth attempt) looked at me shaking his head in disgrace. I signaled him to wait for another 15 minutes, so that I could help my friend in need. But the poor guy was so nervous that he left the examination room in just 30 minutes. I fought back and survived there for next two and half hours. On the result day Shailendra came all the way smiling towards me, not because of his 13/100 on scoreboard, but 9/100 against mine. Can you guys believe this? But our University could make you believe on such nasty things terming them as controversial as NASA’s expedition on moon.
BTW even today sometimes I wake up dripped in sweat with the nightmare, a clerk found out that my convocation of bachelor's degree is not valid as I am yet to clear Electrical m/c III.
