As I sit here writing this article I’m sure there are thousands if not millions of students back there in India who are currently preparing for their GRE/GMAT exams. The urge to go abroad just never ends. Studying abroad is simply an excuse. At first thought when you thought of going abroad for studies, the only thing that could come in your silly mind was not studies itself but hundreds of those green things, those chicks, that life, the life we download every single day in episodes as sitcoms and sit in front of our PCs laughing away and hoping one day you’ll get your own ticket abroad. Here’s a reality check for you kids. The Great Indian GRE dream is nothing close to what you’d imagine it to be. It’s a whole new world out there. There are so many misconceptions that are hard wired into our brains by fellow students, agents, so called immigration consultants etc. that we just don’t use 1% of our brain to think real.

A 22 year old American student is all set to auction her virginity on a radio show. No she’s not another upcoming Paris Hilton but she’s doing it to raise money for college. She is even willing to submit to a polygraph test and a gynaecological exam, in case anyone doubts her virginity. How’s that for desperation?

++ Sell your virginity everywhere. If a dumb American girl is smart enough to think of something like this, use your proud Indian tag to copy the whole idea. Since you’re a smart Indian student, you might as well sell your virginity a thousand times and still be able to pass the polygraph test. (Corruption mate!)
++ Go easy on booze. College is the time when you begin experimenting with all sorts of things containing alcohol. Booze isn’t dirt cheap. It adds to your expenses. Getting addicted will certainly add insult to injury.
++ Beg, borrow or steal books. Your books are important than Paris Hilton. They certainly come in handy during exams. You just can’t afford to buy brand new books from the local bookstore. Borrow books from your seniors. In case you get a chance, steal some from the college library.
