Me:*wrote* (I\'m pretty good at coding).

Interviewer: Explain different software models.

Me: (I got P grade in SE and I didn\'t know any concepts in SE) Sir, I don\'t really like software engineering, It has no practical applications as its not used exactly the way it is studied. I think that we should come up with our own software cycle based on the needs of the organization. We should be like Apple Inc., who don\'t follow the cycle as such, we should start thinking of how to make a great product. Blah blah (tried to convince him that I knew SE).

Interviewer: *Explained the SE approaches followed in Infosys* Why do you think Apple sells a lot?
