It in the year 1965-66 I was in class VIII. I was always a mediocre student with problem of learning, called autism. But the class eight was the threshold class when we had to choose between arts or science stream . To go to science stream you have to do well in Maths, English and Social science . I was unnerved as maths was my problem. I convinced my father to keep a tuitor for me . The tuitor was good and he finished the course during the summer vacation itself. I was quite confident and was doing well, catching up with the best students - Purobi Bhowmick and Amitava Sengupta. However at the time of final exam I had chicken pox, and could only appear for some subjects, however I was given Science based of three subjects required to get science stream.
After 47yrs I still remember myself, Amitava and Piyush sharing the same bench. Piyush became a marine engineer and lives in CR Park Amitava and myself became a scientists in ICAR-nirjaft (jute research institute) in Kolkata and Amitava in IPL- Delhi, also lives in CR Park . I was told that Purobi Bhowmick went on to become a doctor .
