The Indian Thread (TiT) # 14

<p>yeah good luck shashank!</p>

<p>hey anyone in touch with shabeen? havent heard from him for long!</p>

<p>may the grey matter be with you shashank.
i find it odd that we wish everyone good 'luck', as luck clearly has very little to do with exams such as IIT...</p>

<p>oh well just kick arse.</p>

</p>

<p>you couldnt be more wrong...</p>

<p>Hey Shash...all the the best then !</p>

<p>

yes.............</p>

<p>what i meant was that a complete idiot isnt gonna get lucky and crack the exam... at most luck will give you +-2 marks... which i guess could make/break an IIT decision...but it isnt that big of a factor... i mean if u'v consistently worked hard and ur intelligent i dont see how 'luck' will stop u from clearing it...</p>

<p>barring ofcourse god smiting with with a bolt of lightening on yourway to the test center..</p>

<p>


</p>

<p>Err we better decide that soon ourself :) </p>

<p>but date wise i think it would either be on the 27 or 28 of june ( is that okay for others ? )</p>

<p>hey ppl..
this is basicaly a litle off-topic(As if thr was ne on-topic)..neway..the thing is i am trying to get a SkypeOut account...n they want the credit card verification number besides the credit card number..now wat is tht??? :confused: ..i cud only find sme number written at the bak of the card whr the signature is..but they want a 3 digit number..n wat i have is 7 digit number thr..:confused:..if neone seems to knwo abt this..lemme know...thanx thr...cya....:)...</p>

<p>btw..am still 'J' abt ppl meeting up in delhi..:(...</p>

<p>nor did i knwo thr was one happening..rathr happened in mumbai:(....</p>

<p>Behind the card you'll have something like this
1234 3456 4567 6789 999 <- 999 is the verification no.</p>

<p>And I think only VISA has a verification number, so I dont think you'll need the verification number if you're using another Credit card.</p>

<p>aneesh..at teh bak of the card next to the signature...thrs is only anumber lik... 4589 345 ..bus no more numbers..so is 345 th code???...n ya ofcrose i am using visa only....and u up so early??..how come???</p>

<p>yep 345 is the code
Btw I'm up so late, not early :p</p>

<p>and for those interested in cricket -></p>

<p>AUSTRALIA lost to Somerset!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I cant beleive it :eek:</p>

<p>GC Smith and Sanath Jayasuriya had an opening partnership of 197 in 23 overs and somerset chased 342 in just 46 overs!!</p>

<p>aneesh still around??</p>

<p>Sorry mate had dozed off for a while........</p>

<p>hey aneesh...</p>

<p>thanx fr the help..n the early was supposed to be 'early'...and i guess i also got th reason..'cricket'..!!!??...am not a die hard fan..but like watching the one days...not very fond of the test matches...</p>
