The Indian Thread (TiT) # 14

<p>such, congrats on the 3,000.... remember the time when we were racing for thousand? You beat me to 3000 by.. 820 posts :eek:</p>

<p>


</p>

<p>I think that they are doing a good job inspite of selecting only 30. these 30 whom they select are very poor and if they weren't taught by these people, i dont think they would have even tried for iit. and iit here would change their lives, so if these teachers are changing the lives of even 1% of applicants for no monetary gain, its a great thing they are doing!</p>

<p>

I dont think that they have an option. either work for 1 year and be rewarded richly for it or labour for your whole life!</p>

<p>

actually finance but yeah pretty similar :)</p>

<p>and yeah wimbledon update:: henin out :D !!! yeah!! and also henman wins a five setter!! :D</p>

<p>any of you guys applying to any indian colleges?</p>

<p>ya some or most of them did give examz... but many going abroad...</p>

<p>any body going for the st. stephens econmics hons interview.</p>

<p>hmmm.. well if you see RIL's market cap as compared to all three of anils company's its clear who's the winner. mukesh by farrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.. and the cash flows that come in from RIL by far exceed those of infocomm, ipcl and rel cap...</p>

<p>so yeah i think he did get screwwed over... but mukesh compoensated anil with cash- now i dont know how much that was bt unless its somewhere in the region of 1000-1500 crores anil really did get an a$$ whooping.</p>

<p>its gonna be really interesting to watch how these two company's progress///</p>

<p>i dont think its time to sell in the stock market.. the fundamentals are good and i remain bullish.. i think you shoulkd exit at around the 7200 level... but now im kinda mad that the market has risen so much cos the entry costs are just too damn high now.. oh well you cant have your cake and eat it too...</p>

One</a> of the professors in IITK, had remarked "By the end of first year, every student falls into one of two categories. Either he no longer cares for his grades, or he knows exactly what question are going to appear and studies just for them"

<p>^this is what happens at iits?? tough to believe! they are some of the smartest brains in the world!</p>

<p>ft - although not disclosed, i am sure that anil got a pretty hefty cash payout (hence his added investment in his co.) also, when ppl talk about market cap and cash flows, they neglect the fact that some of that was attributed to RIL's holding in the other reliance cos. that will be given back to anil.
even after taking this into consideration ril might have higher mkt cap (much) and cash flows, but than you look at the expected growth rate for ada's group and tht is much higher than RIL. who knows...time will tell</p>

<p>as for stock market, i dont know what that magic level is to buy or sell, but what i know is if i keep on putting equal amount of money in the stock market every 1st of the month (which i have been doing for 5 some years) irrespective of the price level, in 10 years, i will have a good balance. history has proved that trying to time the market is like trying to predict human emotions of greed and fear...pretty much impossible...</p>

<p>The cash settlement from Mukesh to Anil was in the region of 10000 crores to 15000 crores. And considering the growth prospects of Anil's companys compared to the relatively stangant growth prospects of RIL, it doesn't really seem like Anil got screwed over..</p>

<p>actually the cash settle is going to be somewhere between 7500- 10,000 crores, 15000 crores is just too high...

<p>anils just really good with the press (relative to his brother) so the media's been agog with his plans for the future... but i personally believe mukesh was the real brain behind their success... not to say that anil wasnt great... hell both of them are phenomemal..</p>

<p>adides which company's do you put your money into every month? markets will prob rise over a decade, but u gotta pick your company's right</p>

<p>ft - chk pm</p>

<h1>Disclaimer: This is a sour-grapes-rant.</h1>

<p>I have posted about it SO MANY times. Read</a> this article.</p>

<p>"With so many courses and homeworks it was almost impossible to try to really understand the subject matter. Instead some of us learnt how to solve some problems to survive. More serious problems, almost never mentioned, remained though."</p>

<p>..Normally, I had stopped caring about grades by that time, and hardly went to the professors to ask about grades..</p>

<h1>Perhaps a bigger problem is [url=<a href="http://www.kamalsinha.com/iit/women.html%5Dthis%5B/url"&gt;http://www.kamalsinha.com/iit/women.html]this[/url&lt;/a&gt;], though. :D</h1>

<p>hey man...i aint got no problem wid tits or any other ****..i jus; said it sounds kinda wack..u know....get a pimp name.. nways..iz all str8</p>

<p>peace</p>

<p>no activity here for so long!
anyways as expected the 'correction' in the indian markets came, falling by just 25 points, but staying above 7100 :)
but the biggest shock was henman falling in 2nd round :eek: , how could this happen????????</p>

<p>Can anyone tell me if Indians get selected to universities like Duke,Stanford and Northwestern (the ones which give very selective financial aid) with full demonstrated financial aid.
If anyone did get through I'd be happy to see your stats.</p>

<p>shikar - on this board there are number of ppl who go admitted to many selective school including harvard, princeton (2), yale, duke (5), jhu, stanford, mit, etc. the best way is to click on their username and check through their old posts</p>

<p>my stats are 800m, 690v, sat ii: 800, 760, 740. good luck</p>

<p>Thank you adides,
Can you tell me which college you got through and whether you got financial aid or not.</p>

<p>If anyone could give me a link to an indian on this board who got into MIT for Undergrad..i'd really appreciate it.</p>
