(40) Numerical mystery or mastery

(40) Numerical mystery or mastery

Eminent educationists evolve five-year plan,
skilled scientists stretch into a ten-year clan,
the structures and syllabi revised
histories and wars reasonably reduced,
Curriculum carefully planned , concepts scanned,
as would a doctor into the womb of the expectant mother,
printed applications are sold hot,
the bold lines emphatically in print,
admissions are strictly on merit,
guides and notes are sought,
planned and prescribed textbooks are naught,
examinations are on time scheduled,
strict discipline and vigilance reinforced,
mass coping is prohibited,
miscreants are meticulously debarred,
yet, the blank answer sheets become rank sheets,
rank sheets become reduced sheets,
zero is turned into eighty,
ten into hundred,
is it academic jugglery? Or numerical mystery ?
