60 Percentile IITian


Why did I change my roommates at SIU-C then? Vivek and Deva (both from IIT Kanpur) were using the car all the time, with me able to ride it for going to classes very rarely, but all were expected to share the cost of fuel expenses equally. I decided to change roommates after a semester. In punishment they held my books. I still had the keys to the apartment and entered it in their absence. While looking for my books in the small cupboard I found Vivek’ GRE score card, and not surprisingly it read like Quantitative: 60%ile, verbal: 10%ile.
