Clarification - What is the purpose of this blog??

hi all,
     Of late, there seems to be quite a bit of confusion about the purpose of this blog. Anyone who has read this blog in its entirety will understand its true purpose. This post is for those who do not have the time and interest to read it, but have all the time in the world for complaining about it. I would have loved to quote what was said about this blog, for it came from some really interesting people, thanks to the social networking sites. But i am not writing this to point fingers at them. I am glad that this blog was able to capture their attention. Nevertheless, i really find the need to issue a clarification which i am sure will be useful to the others too.

This blog does not:
  • teach you how to score 'marks' in GATE.
This blog does tell you :
  • how you can have fun during preps.
  • the importance of group studies and sharing your knowledge. 
  • some important time/schedule management techniques.
  • things that you need to support the hardwork that you do.
  • the importance of family/friends support during GATE preps.
  • Some guidelines for choosing the courses/institutes. 
If knowledge and experience were not to be shared, we would still be reinventing the wheel. That is precisely the point of this blog.

Further clarification:
The authors of this blog do not believe that they have achieved something unachievable(as suggested by someone). The authors of this blog do not contribute for the sake of popularity or such simple minded things( we already have a lot of it. lol).  We write here to help/motivate people and that makes us happy.

P.S : Dear GATE aspirants, this post is not for you. please do not get offended by this.

  3. :) This blog was definetely a good step. As for the popularity thoughts, I wonder where people get these ideas :-p, unless they are seeking for it themselves.
