[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teacher bias and favoritism is another issue.  A national exam system could avoid the bias and favoritism in grading.[/quote]

This isn’t India. Thankfully.

UK, and most of European countries have that national exam.

What makes you think 2 Indians in T10 strengthen your arguments?  It does not, the Indian kids in the US can barely compete with Indian immigrant H1B workers.  Visit any one of FANNG you will see the majority of SWE there are Indian immigrants.  [/quote]

NP.  First off, some students in the US can compete.  This argument takes a small subset of individuals uniquely skilled for a small subset of employers in a particular industry.  Working for a FAANG is hardly the measure of ability.  It just so happens there is a particularly high level of interest in tech from a country 3-4x the size of the US population. You skim of the top X% in India and the same % in the US and there will be ore from India.  That's just math[/quote]

Believe me.  Indian kids in the US, at least the majority of them, study either CS or premed.  [/quote]
