Well its that time of the year again, when board results come out and every student, their parent and aunties(espcially the aunties) start worrying about admissions. Well, as the number of counsellors aint that great, and the quality of advice that they give at brst average, most of these people(espceially the aunties) turn to half baked experts like myself, who in turn show off to the best of their abilities at these moments.
The need for counselling is obvious. For one most of these students are stupid. There was this guy(most of us arent too sure about his gender act, but we assume he is a guy) in my batch at junior college. He secured a top 10 rank at the C.E.T. And in spite of this the guy fills in 100 choices in his choice list. Every choice there is, he filled it. I mean he is assured of the 1st choice. so why bother.
But in any case its fun to counsel the students. Mostly what i do is listen, then add a few cliched comments like those marks are not bad(euphemism for, ure fucked, bro), a friend of mine got into abc college wit the marks you got(obviously i forgot to mention that he got it via the management quota) so on and so forth.
Obviously, I have also been guilty of taking counsel from seniors. Ask them all the details that they can provide, and am not sure how much of it i will use. Hopefully do use the advice properly and also that they were not using euphemisms when talking to me.
