Had this in excel format, but here is the Intelligence Test Online

What I wonder now is what time will I actually reach home.
I’m sure my internet at home is not working, so I may post feedback tomorrow…

Not only was the internet down, but also the electricity in the area was turned off.
We left and I was able to get a [...]

Woke up early Monday morning to find that the rains had only worsened. It has been pouring right from Saturday morning, so I have no doubt that a good portion of Mumbai is flooded.
