<p>Nice! Yes, it was huge and the students were amazingly devoted to taking care of us too!</p>

<p>BTW, I went for the International Quality Circle Convention.</p>

282

<p>I have been speaking to a few students, and I do feel that a LAC is the most favourable type of college for me. Both in terms of academics and the overall environment.</p>

<p>How much is the overall price difference between a private LAC and a big public/private university ? If you wish to double major, do you have to pay more ?</p>

<p>adrivit did you just say CMS kanpur road! thats awesome! omg… my cousins went to CMS and yes they do say Jai Jagat!
This is awesome because here at Carleton… all the desis are from Bombay and Calcutta and i am snubbed regularly for being from Kanpur (though i am not… i am from IIT Kanpur which is a helluva difference ;P)
I am just happy someone i dont know mentioned Kanpur!
Anyway best of luck to all you guys!</p>

284

<p>Shreya! Hey!</p>

285

<p>Why would they snub you for being from Kanpur? That’s certainly not ‘desi’ spirit… Sounds more like the overtly-westernized spoilt brats <_<</p>

<p>Also, what’s the scope for University of Waterloo or Toronto?
And anyone applying to Australian National University? I heard its pretty good…</p>

286

<p>Universities in Oz care about 12th board marks and 12th board marks only. That’s all I know about them :D</p>

287

<p>Am fine. How about you?..
WOW…this thread is swinging huge posts these days.
Nice.
And How about your college list?</p>

288

<p>My list? Ah, it’s permanently in formation :D</p>

<p>Holy mother of god: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/brown-university/681399-brown-admits-10-8-most-selective-year-ever.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/brown-university/681399-brown-admits-10-8-most-selective-year-ever.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Waaaah! :(</p>

290

<p>^wow,that is bad news.</p>

291

<p>Who’s the holy mother of God? Wow … I like this paradox … this is a BIG boo to all the God fanatics!</p>

<p>But nevertheless, Brown will admit the right people. And tetris is always right. Just like the old lade in the Asian Paints advertisement!</p>

292

<p>Oh shut up adrivit :p. You know it’s an idiomatic expression. But actually…it’s a cool paradox!</p>

<p>Ha, I sure hope so. I’m loving Brown more by the minute. I don’t know if that’s good or bad :(.</p>

293

<p>Brown experienced a 21% jump in apps.</p>

<p>I’m thankful that it’s 10.8.</p>

<p>No chance.
Sigh.</p>

294

<p>If its 10.8 overall, how much will it be for internationals ? Right now, being an Indian probably does not help.</p>

295

<p>Being an Indian probably never helps in admissions.
Unless its IIT-JEE :p</p>

296

<p>lol :slight_smile: 10char</p>

297

<p>OMG! Just looked at ANU’s site. The min. criteria for my field- Engineering R&D is 98%
I can manage it and I can’t :o</p>

298

ANU want him
