theist Posted December 28, 2002 Report Share Posted December 28, 2002 I got the first one right. I did good. I am smart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avinash Posted December 30, 2002 Report Share Posted December 30, 2002 I had seen these questions earlier. I am telling truly that I did all correct (both now and at that time). In fact, the question that asks us to add some numbers surprised me. I got the answer 4100. I do not understand why some people will get the answer as 5000. (I must add here that I did the calculations in my mind in Hindi and not in English; did that help?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atma Posted December 30, 2002 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2002 Theist, I always prayed for you to pass the Quizzes. Still hope for mankind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atma Posted December 30, 2002 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2002 Avinash, my Bengali friend got 5000. I did it right, I failed the first one thought. It's ok, I'm just a woman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theist Posted December 30, 2002 Report Share Posted December 30, 2002 yes atma by your blessing and that of Mother Sarasvati, I am certainly improving. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif By the way, you did understand i am not saying I got the whole quiz correct, just the first question. Still I am proud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atma Posted December 30, 2002 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2002 I'm having hope for mankind. I'm proud of you, at least you admit your shortcomings /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
