classical probability and mid term performance

One day and one night to go b4 Classical probability will strike again. Talked on the phone to jyothi and parents. Feels isolated but that is a pre req for good managers as per the OB stuff I read today, ie. should have low need for affiliation but high need for power which is also controlled and inhibited. I am excited about learning a lot of new kita "A Herzberg term" instead of the karate katas which I tried veri veri hard to master but could not muster. What I liked was the grossness of hygiene as being a demotivating factor and the dichotomy part :) split the nut.

B4 mid terms at iim k

Attended all classes. I have to optimize by bunking some classes today. Some vindictive future MBA took attendance in MC class !! ppl want to get ahead at all costs. I have a medium to low MACH score in personlity assessment unless I tried to manipulate the results of personality assessment test itself. Its a logical conundrum.
Quantitative methods was a riot where all the 99 percentilers got hauled up to explain normal distribution!! Rather standard normal distribution and symmetry about the Mean.
Thinking about the z, always being z fixated the fact that on the graph mean is zero point is lost.
In accounting I made a mess of the salary head :(. Have to be careful to read with a scale in one hand! Hopefully it will not happen in mid term or final term.

As I peer outside by lifting the curtain, a cloud goes by in front of the orange light of the sodium lamp . Staying on the top of the hill does have its advantages, except when a cloud gets in and wets everything. Another day goes by . Its 2 AM , I feel the need to study more but my eyes are droopy and I am blogging away :(. The marketing project for Maruti suzuki versa got rejected. Luckily we have dettol soap on hand as a backup plan. Looked up the capitaline databases to find dettol segment but seems its included in toileteries. Need to figure out the conditional probabilities of Dharwar drilling society. After markov chains this should be a breeze except for the grammatical nuances :). Those in the know will know ! Sometimes I think my language is too terrible except for me, I am like warped out in my own world. Neeraj gave me this book about Artemis Fowl! Really enjoyed that. My pot of gold is in my head. I am thinking of using my blog as a yellow post it :). I Will wake up tomorrow to the spice hills of kozhikode and stretch my hands and yawn at the green expanse as my eyeballs get exercised.
About the Biotech sector analysis for tomorrow 9 pm i need to get an exact sector definition. Recombinant gene technology, vaccines, prostheses, monoclonal antibodies, Large molecule medicines, petones, peptides. cell culture. Biocon is the gorilla in this space with revenues of 687 crores out of the nearly 1000 crore market. Somehow Sterling biotech doesnt figure in this list whereas titan biotech, panacea biotech and jupiter do !
