<p>lmao…the chinese</p>
<p>*raises hand</p>
<p>I confess I’m Indian… haha</p>
<p>I am an Indian too… I live in Patna ( Formerly known as Lalooland 
)</p>
<p>haha kewl… though as already visible the number of Mainland india still staying in India is very small…</p>
<p>btw, I am one of those … frm India… not PLME but…</p>
<p>But anyways brown does has a policy to admit students in their 2nd chioce in case PLME doesnt work out…</p>
<p>SM</p>
<p>how many of Indian Citizens without a PR status are here … and which are the ones with a PR status or US dual citizenship…</p>
<p>coz the PR ones and US citizenship holders + green card ones are counted in an entirely diff pool of applicants and there is unofficialy a selection process seperate for them than the mainland indians… …</p>
<p>SM</p>
<p>uh yeah, if you dont get into the PLME program you can still be admitted into Brown College, which I think is awesome </p>
<p>(they have a little box you can check so you can be considered for the college if you don’t get in)</p>
<p>i’m indian…and applied to PLME. hopefully i’ll get into brown if not the PLME</p>
<p>ha im american desi! well not really, thats just another one of those stupid terms indian movies go crazy with. my parents are both indian, but i was born in america. now we are all american citizens.</p>
<p>ditto as shark</p>
<p>so basically that gives u an American citizen status and doesn’t count as Indian in the application process… which also affect decisions in a huge way… </p>
<p>as also coz when these places report there intel stats they do so state the no. of Indians also … with an unofficial quota …which wont count you ppl in as you be in the domestic international one… and diff… </p>
<p>SM</p>
<p>We’re not Indian, but we do like the nice Indian restaurant next to campus. </p>
<p>Just so you all know it exists!</p>
<p>DianeR, have u eaten Chicken Tikka?</p>
<p>I’ve been a vegetarian for five years now. But before that, I’m sure I did. I love Indian food … also Chinese, Vietnamese, Malaysian, Indonesian, Thai, Japanese, Middle eastern, Italian, Spanish, Mexican, Ethiopian, etc. (the spicier, the better). And anybody’s dark chocolate.</p>
<p>OK, now I’m getting hungry 
It may be an Indian restaurant for me tonight. I now have a hankering for bhindi masala. I’ve never tried to make it myself. I’m afraid I will end up with a gooey mess – my husband is from the south, and this is his experience with cooking okra!</p>
<p>Oh, I didn’t notice before, ronty 007. You only have one message to go to get 1,000. Do you get to be a senior member then? I’m not quite sure the numbers when one’s level changes.</p>
<p>I am a Senior Member now :D</p>
<p>DianeR, r u an applicant?</p>
<p>Nah, my daughter is a Brown freshman. It was her dream school for the last four years and she is so happy to be there.</p>
<p>She does complain about the difficulty in finding people to eat at the Indian restaurant with her, though!</p>
<p>Congrats on being a senior member now. I just find it strange to be a “junior member” of anything cuz I’m so old ;)</p>
<p>Does the maize eating kind that is indiginous to the US count as being “Indian?”</p>
<p>Difficulty of finding people to eat at Kabbob and Curry? That’s funny… whenever I suggest going there, I end up with a huge group because everybody wants to go.</p>
<p>Brown rocks! I have applied there too…though I dont have any high hopes… Whats ur daughter’s intended major, DianeR?
Kababs r so tastyyyyyyyy :D</p>
