Wrong Decisions

The Dusk

During the Winter Break, Gandhiraj observes his activites to a realisation that he's not getting the ideas of creating superheroes or superpowers for his fictional world through the PCB classes and decides to tell his parents that he wants to change stream to Humanities.
The school reopened on January 2023 and he gets shockers on the paper distribution of the Mid Term Examinations where his marks were

English - 59/80
Economics - 48/80
Maths - 29/80
Physics - 23/70
Chemistry - 21/70
Biology - 24/70

where he was satisfied with English and Economics but not with the rest of the subjects. And he considered that he had more of a stronger hold in Economics rather than the science subjects. He regretted choosing PCMB and wanted to shift to Humanities.

On results day, he saw that he has been passed due to the exam taking only Best 5 which excluded his Chemistry Marks. He scored 251 overall which was more than what he expected.

After the results, he was put into three tuition for the subjects - Physics, Biology and Chemistry. The Biology tuition was done only for 2 days before the Biology exam while the Physics and Chemistry tuitions were done for 3 weeks and 2 weeks respectively.

In the final exams, he was unhappy that Borish and him were in separate rooms but got immediately happy that Selina was in the same room as him. This time, they were sitting with the 9th standard and there were changes in the sitting arrangement as the Mid Term Exams Arrangement were done only for 11th Standard. In all the exams, he wasn't really confident but had tried to attempt every question possible which could aid in additional marks to pass. He was even thinking of failing it so that he could pick Humanities.

On the results day, he passed his final examinations showing an improvement where his marks were

English - 63/80
Physics - 23/70
Chemistry - 23/70
Biology - 23/70
Economics - 57/80
Maths - 35/80

He accidentally passed the exam and his total combined scores along with the Practicals was 291 which was 20 marks below Selina's 311 and decides to put on more efforts and applies to 4 tuitions for PCMB. His main motive behind the tuitions was to mug up the notes and QNAs. Even though he was attending the tuitions he never took it seriously, he always thought of it as just a phase which would be cleared and the Phase of taking Humanities would come soon.

With the beginning of 12th standard. He loses out the Captain elections of his house but Selina wins the Captain position of her house. It was only a few days into the new Academics Session then one day a big communal riot happened in the state which led to Selina leaving the state. Now, Gandhiraj had lost his only motivation to continue. With his motivation lost amidst a critical year for his studies, he is now in a Rattrap. He now thinks of himself as a rat who got lured into the trap by a temporary desire of the girl.
