Aim- To determine the maximum number of usable LORs (letters of recommendation)
Hypothesis- Teachers are lazy and will do as much as they can to avoid doing work
Materials Required- Tons and tons of patience
- Time
- Determination
- Misc stuff like documents etc.
Procedure:
- Approach teachers in various departments
- Explain what you need them to do
- Explain again because they wouldn't have understood the first time
- Enumerate all the ways in which they can shorten their share of work
- Leave
- Come back
- Leave
- Come back
- Repeat last 4 steps till a feeling of hopelessness develops within you
- Continue till a week before deadline
- Panic
- Tell teachers to go to hell
- Fudge the documents yourself
Instructions- "Ma'am I need this work done urgently. Pleeeeeeeeeeeeease get off your fatt butt and help me out."
Analysis of Results:
- Collect whatever LORs are actually done. Not to worry since these will be minimal
- Read through them and whiten out the bad stuff that's been written about you and insert more favourable stuff in its place
- Count the number of LORs that have not had too much doctopring and submit them
- This is the number required to prove/ disprove the hypothesis.
Anybody up for practicals......??? ;)
