    hey i saw the shakti kapoor thing too. start a thread on that. i belive shakti kapoor. i think all the actresses have slept with producers and directors to get meaty roles.
    i hope this leads to the arrest of all the producers and directors. at least that will put an and to all the crappy movies we get these days. they should also do a sting operation on annu mallik :)

    regarding the poll.. i am totally against cheating.
    when i was in Xth standard, for the board exams we had common examination center.. half my classroom was filled with some delhi gevernment school kids...
    during the math exam.. after 10 minsutes of getting question paper.. this dude who looked like a teacher came and wrote the answers to all the questions.. just the numerical answers.. not the method.. to all the 35 questiosn :shock: i got so scared and nervous that my legs started shaking.. for 3 hours i couldnt focus.. and was waiting for the moment someone walked it and suspeneded all of us... it was horrible.. i somehow got 95/10 in that test though.. and i never looked at the blackboard. someone from my class complained to the principal of our school that evening.. and the incident never repated after that thankfully.

    then during my 12th board exams.. i think this was chemistry.. again the exam center was some delhi government school like 1 hour into the exam an orange sized stone wrapped with some white paper with notes scribbled crashed through the window and broke the class.. and hit the invigilators table... hehe shcoked the hell out of everyone.. but then someone started laughing.. that broke the tension.. everyone lauyghed 5 minutes wasted.. then we continued with the test :)

    Yarr Shahrukh! I don't understand that y our education department has included poets whole history in Urdu. What they like, wat they dislike, U know all poets were great "Chanrebaaz" in thier youth as well as at the last stage of their life. 1 word is very commn in their poetry "Mehboob". Wat the hell is that???? R they trying 2 make student's future bright or trying to make them chanrebaaz :)

    Well, innocent until proven guilty. That's my stance. I dont mind showing the answers to other people if they ask me. Hey, it's their life they're ruining.

    i cant believe so many of u are openly ok with cheating.. maybe thats the root cause of all the corruption in our home countries.. this mentality that cheating is ok.

    I sometimes cheat in these small class tests, but not when it comes to any major exams, I'm not that foolish.

    jay..theres a lot worse going on in India than this. Anyways this **** is serious^^.....i would never go to such lengths..10000 bucks..damn. Id rather study.
    As far as us being corrupt, lol Americans are corrupt too u know. We may be more corrupt but at least we dont go declaring war on other countries.
    Personally, in school I used to help other people. U know passing my paper and the likes. I never used to ask anything simply cuz I never needed to. In college its both ways, though theres no paper passing and stuff like that. Only verbal assistance.
    It does give u a natural high.

    Yes but that didn't stop people from trying to get it..... they showed how depressed the kids got cause they were searching all night before the exams to get a hold of the "leaked" paperand in the process ruined their preparation for the exams.... so they ended up in a ditch anyway....which they could have avoided if they just studied.

    ha ha ha jayswami .... nice ones ...

    coming back to topic , even i am totally against cheating , its not cheating someone else but cheating urself ...

    well cheating is just an excuse to move out from a trouble easily , and most of the time people do it cos they are either lazy or not at all confident abt themself ..

    i totally agree with jay that this is the core reason of corruption and mis management in our country , ..

    i think we can start a thread discussing abt Problems in India ...

    wat i never understood is the concept of exam papers. i mean u study from a book the whole year and at the end they expect u 2 know 3/4 of the book so u can do an exam without it. and its worse for chemistry and things, hve u seen the size of the book, no wonder half the students just learn it by heart and never understand it.

    i never crammed organic chemistry.. i got 99/100 CBSE 12th exams in chemisty in 1992. Organic chmesitry is like math.. very logical but then maybe i had a good science teacher.. actually I did. the only regret i have is the way they taught me history in india.. like its all about dates when u learn histrory in school.. in reality that aint the case.. i do so much research on world history online.. its so facinating.. WW2 and stuff like that. even indian history and ancient civilizations etc.. history channel and discovery are my favorite channels.. i would probably major in history if i go to school again now... when i studied in india history was my least favorite subject.. cause the teacher just went thru her motions.. reading text books.. and kids used to just memorize dats and stuff. first battle of panipat was blah.. dandi marach was blah etc. the teacher never explained to us once.. that whay was dandi march such a big deal... that it created so much publicity.. reporters from USA covered it.. and it put indias freedom struggle in the front pages.. amazing PR stunt by gandhi.. my teacher never explained that to me... teachers are also not current in thier knowledge in middle and high schools unfortunately. that breeds the culture of memorizing. the teachers themselves do not know beyong the text books.. which arent updated evry year so do not stay current. I also do not believe in a centralized exam system. high schools should be autonomous.. and audited frequently to maintain high standards.. but for that u need a corruption free society.. damn chicken and egg situation.. aaaaaah
