GRE series - V

...... contd

Day: 0 (Wednesday)
Time: 12:30pm
Venue: 1st floor, Sukh Sagar Building

My dear friend, so as to say senior, told me to arrive at the center a bit early so that the documentary work gets done quickly which could let me get in the exam chamber sooner. Saw Kumaresh coming out of the chamber.
"Hey, how did u do? Whats ur score?"
"Oh man. Exam went far out of my imaginations. I couldnt believe that i scored 1350"
"Oh la la...there u go.....u ll be with ur gf soon in US...congratulations"
"lets hope so"
"hey buddy, listen...can u tell me some questions that were asked in ur paper.....i know u cant recollect but can u pressurize ur brain a bit and tell me some....i heard that the questions get repeated in the exams on the same day"
"sorry yaar...kuch yaad nahin aa raha"
"well ok...lets see...whats there in store for me....u go and check out of Shree....that old man must be furious by now....dont know if he has thrown ur luggage out of the room.....he is really afucking bastard....rush in"
"yea i must go now...best of luck...do well....i want u in US too"
"ooh sure.....i ll..thanx neways.....meet u in hall"
Entered the glass door and the immediate response on my face "What the fuck!!!" There were nearly 10 ppl, even more than that, sitting in the waiting room. The reception guy gave me a warm welcome. He was nice in behavior although i couldnt realise any sort of gay feelings in him. He gave me some papers to sign which clearly says two three points which i'll never forget:
  • Nothing is allowed inside the Exam room. Everything'll be provided. (I had doubt about my shirt and pant)
  • If the candidate is found leaking the question outside or inside the exam room, his/her score will stand cancelled. (well what the fuck is that....i have enough rights to express myself, anywhere, anytime)
  • ........
  • ....
  • ...
That was enough tonic for me...i signed quickly and submitted the papers alongwith my passport and institute identity card. God saved me, I didnt forgot that to bring along. So and so, time passed by and at around 1:10 pm i was returned back those papers and made to stand just outside the chamber. I was told that they ll call me inside when my turn comes.
Actually, i dont want to mention but i was sweating, even though there was hard centralized AC working. It was, i guess, because of nervouseness. No!! It cant be. I wasnt afraid of the exam. I knew that it wont go well with the preparations that I had. But there was something which kept on itching me. Maybe the concern for the future career. Maybe that the fear that i never makhaoed any exam before. And a lot many 'maybe's which i cant clearly demarket right now. Its in my mind but cant able to write it down. In this spooky situation, i went to answer the nature's call, although i answered it 30 min back. Now this is the type of feeling you get when you first get on to the stage. Will share these feeling later.
And the bell rang, and i was called inside.

.......To be Continued
