<p>are you trying for IIT too ?</p>
<p>well u guys are a bit late on that quota thing…its been in news for some time now…and well i think maybe we should start having seperate institutions for OBC/SC/ST and general (coz i mean the govt. is hell bent on giving any goddamn seat to them in every damn institution)… Once again after all those years, when i opposed people that intelligent people had no choice but to leave india so that they can prosper, and i was always criticised, here is a good reason to support my statement…</p>
<p>oh and also i will take the opportunity to make a ver offensive statement here</p>
<p>“Reservation is the worst disease to have hit the world”</p>
<p>u knw what really kills is that the people who should benefit from these reservations never get the benefit…more than often it is already well established OBC’s/SC’s/St’s ( like students with financial status equal to ours…meaning some of my classmates) who take advantage of this. The ones who are really poor and living non-existently they still dont get those coveted seats…</p>
<p>I think reservation should be based on financial status not minority or majority basis…i mean if a brahmin is like below poverty line and an SC is the son of a well to do person…i think its the brahmin who deserves the reservation…but then thats just my opinion…of course most of the country does not miss any opportunity to fu(k this country in better ways over and over again…</p>
<p>how would any one rate NIT say suratkal against UT austin for suppose comp sc major.Is the ut austin with fee close to $30k worth it.</p>
<p>well… thats the fate of INdia… here its not the benefit of minority thats the agneda but rather the profit of political hierarchy that gets the focus… I fail to see any proper rational reason why this should be done…</p>
<p>To encourage education among diisadvatnaged population is really good measure but to do so in a way affecting or downgrading both quality and also the general students in unfair… well proportional increase and encouragement may have helpd … but its rather very upsetting for general mass… thats like opening up news ways of saying gud students go out of the country…</p>
<p>SM</p>
<p>dude UT is closer to 20K…and cmon u cant compare UT with an NIT…UT rocks dude</p>
<p>UTAUSTIN>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>… any NIT any day…</p>
<p>SM</p>
<p>IS it confirmed 20k.According to ut site tuitions are about 18k may be I am wrong .Can any one else confirm it?</p>
<p>well no …the net is abt 25k though they quote it at 28k…</p>

Vamp - I completely agree with you.</p>
<p>All parties do the reservation thing over and over again. Frankly its because the government is lazy.In stead of working hard to build schools and make good teachers, they just pass a law say some crap and have instant affirmative action.</p>
<p>Equality opportunity should be for everyone not just percieved backward classes.</p>
<p>precisely but that requires gud amt of work and action frm government they arent ready to do…</p>
<p>as cited they are after the instnt AA benefits they get with votes and all… but well this rise is sure to get due protests and objections… yet as always the sufferers would never be the choosers of their fate…</p>
<p>SM</p>
<p>i agree with vampiro too…</p>
<p>another slap on the face of society by the government, which it will take meekly</p>

<p>I’m sorry Rishabh but you’re wrong 
I was shocked to see how many 20+ admissions officers there are. Even the Dean of admissions here doesn’t ‘strut around’ in an armani suit.</p>
<p>he was joking …</p>
<p>SM</p>
<p>yes obviously i was . . </p>
<p>thats kinda the image that gets portrayed by the non-need blind colleges anyway, and some of the need blind ones too who claim to be need blind to intels.</p>
