This is the paper I got for the mid semester test of Multimedia Systems.
“Please don‘t write stories”
It’s a known fact that engineering papers are graded based on their length. So, we HAVE to write looooong answers with a lot of masala to spice it up. Paraphrasing is used extensively to convert a one-sentence answer into 3 sentences, without increasing the actual content. The examiner, not wanting to waste his time in correction, didn’t want to read “stories” in a 20 mark paper.
“Write crisp answers. You may use bullets”
Hands down, this person was definitely a big fan of MS Word. If only we could submit a soft copy of the answer sheet.
“Describe a multimedia application used in VJTI. lf there is no such application, describe what activities can benefit from multimedia applications.”
No such application in VJTI? Are you kidding? I wonder if Mr/Miss Paper-Setter knows what multimedia is!
Such are the exams of the oldest and most prestigious engineering college in Maharashtra. VJTI raaks!

Also interesting to "note" is how your overzealous paper-setter hasn't seemed to have gotten the name of the institute right. WTH is "Veer Mata"?
we dont get shocked at seeing such errors. its expected.
