SimCAT 8 has been THE BEST performance by me in all my SimCATs. I was really impressed the way I attempted most of my questions. It felt so much identical to the way I used to write papers in 10th and 12th. Even the verbal section was good. I guess the real trick for performing well in verbal is to start off well. I had prepared well for the JFI (Judgment-Fact-Inference) questions and it actually showed in the exam. Previously, I had never got a single correct JFI. This time 4 out of 5 correct answers. In fact I got the last one wrong because I made a mistake in one of the 4 statements. It feels really good now, as I wanted to do well JFI since last year. Ironically, I got less marks in DI as compared to other sections. I wasted 1 5 min on a set which fetched me just 1 correct answer and nothing else. Also when I was left with 5 min with 2 sets to go, I attempted the difficult one which restricted my total attempt in DI. Still if you really look at the marks in DI they are good. The best part was Math. I attempted 12 out of 25 questions. And I got all right. Though I would like to improve my attempt in DI and math, if I am able to maintain the same accuracy level in CAT '07, then I don't mind attempting 50% of questions. Having said that, I need to study for CAT now. So Bye.

Raja Shivchhatrapati Lyrics

इंद्र जिमि जंभ पर… बाडव सुअंभ पर… रावण सदंभ पर… रघुकुलराज है ! पौन बारिबाह पर… संभु रतिनाह पर… ज्यों सहसबाह पर… राम द्विजराज है ! उदरात माउली… रयतेस साउली… गडकोट राउळी… शिवशंकर हा मुक्तीची मंत्रणा… युक्तीची यंत्रणा… खल दुष्टदुर्जना… प्रलयंकर हा संतास रक्षितो… शत्रू निखंदतो… भावंडभावना… संस्थापितो ऐसा युगेयुगे… स्मरणीय सर्वदा… माता-पिता-सखा… शिवभूप तो दावा दृमदंड पर… चीता मृगझुंड पर… भूषन वितुंड पर… जैसे मृगराज है ! तेज तम‍ अंस पर… कान्ह जिमि कंस पर… त्यों मलिच्छ बंस पर… सेर सिवराज है ! जय भवानी, जय शिवाजी !   Thanks to Nik for sending this.

My Favorite Song

I always loved marathi songs. Be it the usual film songs, or the ever spiritual bhakitgeet. I am great fan of Vasant Bahar (the collection songs by Vasant Desai, Vasnt Prabhu and Vasant Deshpande). But all these songs were recorded in older times, before the 80s. In fact there were not many songs from the 90s which were really great. The emphasis was more on Comedy and the music paid for this. In fact there were songs which were "combo" songs containing the marathi versions of many popular hindi songs. Post Shwas era however has been much more encouraging. There were some amazing numbers like Radha hi Bawari, Man Udhan Varyache, Malhar vari and more. The song which I am going to mention here was an special addition  to the "Aga Bai Arechya.." audio CD. It was got the modern touch which I think is essential for Marathi songs if they really want to compete against the Hindi or Punjabi songs.  Sung by Swapnil Bandodkar, this one is at the top of my favorite songs list

शायरी

कुछ बिखरे सपने और आँखों में नमी है, एक छोटा सा आसमां और उम्मीन्दों की ज़मीं है, यूँ तो बहुत दोस्त है ज़िन्दगी मैं, पर जो खास है वाही पास नहीं है ....................
