how much of college book knowledge are you using?
there is a campus interview in my college by Microsoft and my dept is not letting me participate cause i have 2 supplies in 3rd sem.
am doing BCA.
i want to know one thing, how many ppl here are working and are actually implemeting what they studied in colleges?
my friend who has supply is allowed to attend, politics 
the worst part is that ppl who are atttending the interview am sure that they do not know the CEO of microsoft(they all will say Bill Gates).
may 2nd dream job gone with the wind.

What's a supply? Arrear?
You hardly apply anything you study at college at work I guess, except ways to laze.

Re: how much of college book knowledge are you using?
Thats what I think Always... That what they teaching us in college is actually of no use in real world... All they teach us is Sh!t... in the end we have to learn on our own... (as I am learning VC++ on my own, thanks qwerty for suggesting.)... And they will not teach VC++ in whole BCA.
College books and course are Sh!t... a suggestion to everyone... Learn something more then that there is in ur books.

Re: how much of college book knowledge are you using?
Well i will have to agree with the fact, that my present line of work and what i had studied prior to getting into this field are different. Now am into networking, but i had done engineering in electronics and communication back in the hey days !! All my friends got into software companies, but i thought the other way round...why not try my luck in hardware, networking, system administration??...and now i am fully satisfied with my work and expertise in networking.
Now coming back to the discussion at hand, dear chicha i can understand the pain, they are not allowing u to attend the recruitment...dont despair, maybe the almighty got good plans for u. Try not to accumulate these arrears...

Re: how much of college book knowledge are you using?
The knowledge we apply in our work is too different than what we learned. But we can't APPLY that without the base of the knowledge which we got from books and colleges. Isn't it ??

Actually,some of the knowledge we get at college is very helpful indeed.
I'm workin in the Data Warehousing field right now,
and i had a subject in my 4-2(4th year - 2nd Sem) in Engg.
I hated that subject when it was taught 
but now its helping me a lot,
Sometimes,we are just stuck with the opinion that colleges make us learn useless stuff,but there is some useful stuff too.
Regards,
ray
