Failure Does Not Mean I’m A Failure
Failure does not mean I’m a failure;It does mean I have not yet succeeded.
Failure does not mean I have accomplished nothing;It does mean I have learned something.
Failure does not mean I have been a fool;It does mean I had enough faith to experiment.
Failure does not mean I have disgraced;It does mean I have dared to try.
Failure does not mean I don’t have it;It does mean I have something to do in a different way.
Failure does not mean I am inferior;It does mean I am not perfect.
Failure does not mean I have wasted my life;It does mean that I have an excuse to start over.
Failure does not mean that I should give up;It does mean that I should try harder.
Failure does not mean that I will never make it;It does mean that I need more practice.
Failure does not mean that You have abandoned me;It does mean that You must have a better idea.
Failure does not mean I have accomplished nothing;It does mean I have learned something.

6. Sound Out!: (3 Members per team)
This is a quiz event divided into 6 rounds based on knock-out method of elimination. A definite number of teams will be eliminated after each round depending upon total number of entries.
ROUND-1: “Let me check U” In this round question from physics, chemistry, electronics basics, computer basics, general science, recent developments, inventions, noble prize winners etc. will be asked.
ROUND-2: “Do U know…?” This will be a conceptual testing round consists of “Tell me why?” type of questions. Level of questions for the event will be up to 1st year course.
ROUND-3: “Eagle Eye” It will be a visual round. Teams will be shown a picture and questions related to it will be asked.
ROUND-4:“Be Practical” In this round some simple experiments will be performed by the participants and questions related to those practical’s will be asked.
