The Indian Thread (TiT) # 14

<p>well MM that’s pretty cool and awesome thoughts to have… but believe me unless ur dad or anyone really knw what u mean by saying that . he wont let u go this way…</p>

<p>ppl who once go thru this stuff in young age and set straight principles do never BRIBE( a word i wudnt use coz its extreme)…i wud completely do the same…but well agree to me when i say that among millions only hundreds wud have the same principle…</p>

<p>SM</p>

<p>I guess that’s true. (the cellphones bit) Also, u have no idea how stingy they are. Plus, living in Mumbai, many of my friends’ parents have been associated with the ambanis (also, my dad knows him personally). Which is how I’ve heard horror stories. Not only mukesh and anil, but also of dhirubhai.</p>

<p>You’ve probably heard of the Bhopal gas thingy some 20 years ago. Did you know something similar happened at a Reliance chemical plant in Gujrat? Interesting huh? You wont find stuff on this on the net. You know why? Because the ambanis (dhirubhai was there at the time) payed the media and crushed the entire investigation.</p>

<p>yeah you are right SM…Principle’s are taking a back seat nowadays though…as people who adopt some turn out to be big losers unless they are already in control of their life.</p>

<p>maan…thats bad…and also i would recommend you not to say all this in public (like this forum…although this wont evr get out here) coz confidential stuff should be kept confidential…thats what my dad always says.</p>

<p>but yeah then there are sum ppl who nevertheless dont care …they go to univs and brag all around over how intelligent they are for they got admision to these places…knowing fully well what role money played… but then u cant really help that …
let them live in their world…</p>

<p>but the ones who go truly on their merit and believe in themselves sure suceed… even after dropping out…</p>

<p>I PERSONALLY WUDNT EVER MIND DROPPING out if i had an empire in making behind me… but provided that does happen …</p>

<p>SM</p>

<p>Well, whatever info I’ve gathered is from people who have associated themselves with reliance in tehe past and never plan to in the future. So it is open to a certain degree of bias. All I’m sayingis that if you have never associated yourself with reliance, you only know the reliance from the press, not the real reliance.</p>

<p>Btw, such thoughts are openly expressed at our school. not infront of nita ambani (chairperson) of course :D</p>

<p>I wonder where watercannon is. I’d sure like to hear his views - he was from last year’s batch.</p>

<p>Just as a side note-Upenn actually sent out letters to people at my school telling them they would be admitted if they didnt ask for aid …</p>

<p>hehe cool…actually school is perfectly ok…coz its kind of a ritual for every student to blame their school authorities…and it is one of my personal favourites…</p>

<p>:( that’s sad. I sympathize with guys who apply for aid.</p>

<p>thanks a lot akash for telling that information and reminding me…now that I remember this…Such letters were also recieved by Mercury Squad and Sucharita…so i think that shows what UPENN takes and what it does not.</p>

<p>he comes here for sure but rarely and ocasionaly…</p>

<p>Dont expect to call him here coz he comes anytime and evrytime… and yeah we all knw him…</p>

<p>SM</p>

<p>hey guyz</p>

<p>gr8 discussion goin on here!! MM, tell us more abt da ambanis ;)</p>

<p>nd who all here r givin da boards?? cuz it luks like none of us r…</p>

<p>who are u talking about SM.</p>

<p>wait a sec… .does that mean… OMG
**
I RECIEVED A LETTER TOO… I THOUGHT IT WAS GENERIC AND IT SAID THE SAME THAT YES I CUD GET IN GR8LY IF I WITHDRAW MY AID APPLICATION…**:confused:</p>

<p>SM</p>

<p>i was talkin abt watercannon…</p>

<p>SM</p>

<p>nd guys, theres this song “graduation song (friends forever)” by vitamin c…
nd keep tissues in hand…</p>

<p>yeah good one sachit…it sure looks like no one is really giving em…
and SM when did u get that letter.
But I think ours was general…because my also said that if i dont apply for financial aid there are chances of getting in.</p>

<p>But the one that says that if u withdraw your aid application you will get in is I think sent by mail and is sent sometime after some time from now.</p>

<p>hey i didnt get dat letter…</p>

<p>i got one few days back man…</p>

<p>SM</p>
