<p>That's the syllabus for the entrance exam. IITs admission is an entrance exam in which you have to score something like in the top 5%.</p>

<p>The knowledge base appears to be 5s in AP calc bc, AP physics c (both sections), AP chemistry. However some further chemistry is also introduced (inorganic, etc) and further calculus is introduced (ordinary diff equations, a slight bit of multivar, etc)</p>

<p>I don't think you should go to india for university though. Plus it's going to be super hard to get in unless you really know your stuff.</p>

<p>I want to major in computer science.</p>

<p>I know a LOT of computer science + math, but no chemistry and physics.</p>

<p>Is there no way I can get in?</p>

13

<p>It seems pretty obvious that you're joking around.</p>

<p>Do you have any idea how difficult admission is? Many students take a full year after graduating high school to prepare for the first IIT entrance exam and STILL don't make the cut to allow them to take the second admissions test.</p>

<p>Good luck with that, dude. Students who are able to gain admission to IIT, have the numbers and intellect to not only get into, but succeed at places like CalTech and MIT. Do you feel that you are such a student?</p>

<p>I'm not bs-ing all this stuff, I bring pretty good empirical knowledge. My grandfather has taught at one of the IIT locations for 25 years in civil engineering and my uncle earned his bachelors and masters in structural engineering there.</p>

<p>with money, you can always get in. that's just how things work in india. regardless, it's probably not a good idea to go to school in india. you might end up losing your US residency/citizenship and have to struggle to get a visa to even come back to this country. and you'll also have to deal with immense competition in any of the IIT campuses.</p>

15

<p>i heard IIT kids use harvard and MIT as backup schools</p>

16

<p>ignore what p reepa said. that's a bunch of BS. i live in India. Yeah IIT admission isn't a cakewalk but it ain't impossible. just gotta work hard. probably spend atleast half a year or so preparing for the entrance tests. IIT life is pretty cool. IIT in new delhi had a robot football league last year.</p>

17

<p>I feel bad for the kids who are applying after looking at that syllabus lol.</p>

18

<p>what's bs? don't try to tell me there isn't competition amongst the very best students at IIT, because that's bs. sometimes "working hard" isn't nearly enough. you have to spend at least half a year studying in order to have a chance to get in to IIT...there's competition before the actual competition starts. and don't try to tell me that you won't have an insanely difficult time coming back to the states because of tight visa requirements and immigration quotas, because that too is bs...every indian wants to come to the US. and the educational quality is declining, anyway. axeman, you mentioned robots...well that's what the IITs are mass producing.</p>

19

<p>p reepa, i don't agree w/ you that you can get into IIT by money. You can with a lot of other schools in India (i think they're called Capitation fees?), but not with IIT. Anyways, to the OP, good luck, but I think you're gonna be hardpressed ot get in. just because everyone and their retarded brother in India dreams of going to IIT, and they all work their asses off throughout high school and afterwards to do well on the Entrance Exam. My dad went to IIT Delhi tho, and I visited the campus last summer, it's pretty neat. But you probably want to stick w/ the US for school. Can you even speak the local language there?</p>

20

<p>nope</p>

<p>is IIT more prestigious than MIT?</p>
