[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just keeping it short and sweet aggregating from many responses: US: HPSM, Caltech, Yale, Duke, Penn, Columbia, potentially Berkeley/UCLA [b]India: IITs (specifically Madras, Delhi, Bombay)[/b] China: Tsinghua, Peking UK: Oxford, Cambridge[/quote] Are the bolded ones a joke? I recognise these might be prestigious in the Indian context, but outside of India does anybody know about them or care? It’s offensive to put them on par with Ivies and oxbridge. And before someone responds back saying, the IITs are harder to get into than Harvard, that’s not my point. My point is people know and care about Harvard. Nobody outside India knows or cares about these schools. [/quote] The bolded is a bigger joke because Sundar Picchai the CEO of Google or Alphabet is from an IIT (not listed i.e., Kharagpur).
