For the SAT II MathII/Chem/Phy are the books like Barrons and PR self sufficient,meaning is it ok for me to study the topics from these books only or should I refer to my 11th and 12th books.</p>

    5.Duke----5
    6.Stanford
    7.Northwestern
    8.Cornell
    9.Columbia
    10.UPenn</p>

<p>RSS is to India, what Talibans were to Afghanistan…</p>

636

<p>oh and btw-17 overall were accepted to duke,but 7 enrolled.</p>

637

<p>the Taliban suppressed the Afghans, I doubt anyone can suppress Indians. Although I must say the RSS,Shiv Sena and some Muslim clerics are trying their level best.</p>

638

<p>the shiv sena’s dead yaar… they cant do jack**** any more…</p>

<p>meghna naidu slapped some dude in a theatre cos he didnt stand up for the anthem- stunt or the real thing? do u think what she did was right? </p>

<p>…and i wonder if she would have slapped the person had the offender been a woman… hmmmmm… reverse discrimination…no fair…( :</p>

639

<p>

</p>

<p>dude, i dont know. There is the Indian in me, which says meh…maybe she was right. But then there is the rational in me, which says that in a democracy, that person has the freedeom to express himself (as long as it does not hurt ne1 else) the way he likes.
it is the same argument going on in the US right now, where they are (again) trying to pass a legislation prohibiting burning of the US flag by an american. some say its anti-nationalistic and some say its freedom of speech…
i do know that by physically assaulting ne1 does not fulfill the purpose (except sometimes :wink: ) because you cant go out slapping the millions who dont agree with you. She should have asked him the reasons for doing so and tried to maybe ammend those underlying reasons for outreaching impact</p>

<p>talking about reverse discrimination, chk this out
