Question IMS - GK Book (PEARSON EDUCATION) - 18-11-2005, 04:48 PM

Guys I know eah and every one of us are now chilling out trying to chill out and making up our mind set for the D-day, like wise i took the IMS - Current Awareness or the GK booklet that i got as a part of my coreespondence coure, and to my horrendus surprise i was able to recognise the book on its face as very recently i bought a book called - Concise GK Manual - by Showick Thorpe and guys lemme tell u my money was not worth to put in IMS as they just made a preci out of it n got it printed , Never expected such a thing from an institute like IMS.

Guys my issue is whatz new that i am getting? and What shud i do to relax now? These people are screwing our happiness, I came to know that even CLs annual addition of their magazine is good which has got a lot of good information. Can anyone place the scanned images of the same.

What about PTs GK booklet? I heard they are giving some good content as well please post the scanned images, bcos i know i am gonna crack it n my battle ground is GD / PI

MR.CAT2005 Rulezzzzzz........................................ ...........

Hello MR.CAT2005,
I agree dude bcos even i found the same which is not expected out of a institute like IMS, which boasts itself for its strong academic team, Kudos to CL for nice magazine but yaar IMSians should not play with students like this a big to these guys

A Well Wisher

All the Best to CAT 2005 Takers

Can all of you care to mention how all of you share the same IP address ? This looks more of a smear campaign since all of you share the same access address. Either explain, or all get banned and the thread goes out.

Hello Mr. Moderator,
I am posting my views from Delhi and boss I have no intention meant to smear anyone. I view pagalguy regular and thought i would share my experience nothing else. As i do not have a net connection @ home, i post my views from Cybercafe. If someone else is also using the same cafe how can u blame it me? If u feel i have done sth outrageous please remove the thread asap. I dont want to harm anyone.


Mr.CAT2005 rulezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzz

BTW I hope u are not student of IMS neither a person from IMS itself ? If not then y are u so biased.

Yes..I can imagine.. 3 of you..standing in line in a cyber cafe..all ready to post on a thread ... wow .. why didn't we all think of this before. As I said, you had the right to provide an explanation and I have the right to decide if its fair or not. In this case its not. Plus showing the finger to the mod or anyone here is not considered good manners.

Feel free to be a troll on some other website, but you are banned from this one. Anyone else has a better reason, do reply back to this thread

Come on Allwyn. Don't get angry.

Don't misunderstand me. I do not even know who this guy is. But I thought PG.com should uphold democratic rights. If someone posts rubbish stuff then let him do that; nobody will ever reply.

Remember the Internet is a place where no RULES apply.

P.S.: Don't ban me. I am aready scared with CAT tomorrow.

You make a fair point and we are rather democratic. For e.g; the thread hasn't been locked because there could be truth here - but liars shouldn't be allowed

For e.g; the banned user stated that he/she/it is from Delhi, when the access was from Indore. You lie, you run a smear campaign and then show the finger to the mods .. I am not so sure that such users should be tolerated

Best of luck for CAT dude! Smack it!
