The Indian Thread (TiT) # 17

<p>Hi :), I'm not an international applicant (from the US), but just wanted to say hi :)</p>

<p>Hi!>...:)..</p>

<p>Hey..</p>

<p>So I'd found this thread a long while ago but then I forgot about it, but here I am, once again :D</p>

<p>I've applied to:</p>

<p>UIUC
purdue
berkeley
umich
penn
cornell
dartmouth
UCSD
bucknell
Harvey Mudd
...umm that's about it, not that many :P</p>

<p>Yeah so as might be evident, I was quite paranoid about getting in some place. </p>

<p>I've so far got UIUC and Purdue admits under my belt..engineering: not such a major deal but safeties definitely make me feel safe.</p>

<p>where are you folks going?! and doing? I mean..which majors :P</p>

<p>See ya around!
P.S. Tetrisfan, the new house episode is out, just in case you blinked during the occurence of that supernova :P</p>

<p>Congrats!...</p>

<p>hi
i am in California so i have dual citizenship in India and America and was thinking about going back to India for undergrad and getting bachelors and masters</p>

<p>how do you think it will work out if i was to go into medicine?</p>

<p>It will work out well if you ready to give 3 trillion entrance examinations asking foolish questions and making you feel like a moron. Apart from that, it's cake. There are loads of exams, and the preparation needed for them is a bit different from what's taught in US schools ... it's a lot more theory based! Find spideyunlimited here on CC ... he knows a lot about Indian entrance exams.</p>

<p>wat a shame!! I have only one post to my credit in the Last tit thread!!
!!!! (i love exclamation points too !!)</p>

<p>so wat's the king/queen thing? more posts=winner?</p>

<p>well does anyone think its a wise decision or a bad decision knowing most people come from different countries to study here
also anyone know anything about doing residency here after doing undergrad in india?</p>

<p>i just hope i dont screw up my career by studying in india then wanting to come back here and being unable to do a good residency and become cardiologist (long term goal)</p>

<p>hello everyone :)</p>

<p>im a '13 er :D</p>

<p>funny i only came across this thread when i didnt have a cc account and after i made one i forgot bout it :P</p>

<p>yeahhy....someone in the same boat from the same country with a seat next to me :P
:D</p>

<p>First of all, Entrance Exams are not a cake. They can't be eaten and digested..:p..
The competition is HUGE, and I mean it.
You may do UG here. But it would be advisable to do your Masters in US.</p>

<p>bump.........
(Just increasing my post count):p</p>

<p>I am new to this forum (just registered today) and so i want to say Hi to all you guys out here.</p>

<p>I am currently doing schooling in the UAE and hope to go the univ for chemical engg either in the US or UK .</p>

<p>I have the following offers </p>

<p>-Purdue
-IIT (Illinoise not the famed Indian one)
- SUNY-Buffalo
- Florida Institute of technoloy
- University of Manchester (UK)
- University of Birmingham (UK)
-University of Loughborough (UK)
I am waiting to hear from a couple of others like UOM _Annarbor ; USC; Texas A&M ' Imperial College (LOndon UK) </p>

<p>Request your views on which of the one's above I should finally select.
A bit confused right now</p>

<p>It really depends on you.
Do some more research work on your selected college and go for the one which you feel comfortable with (To obvious for a reply..:p)
Also, go for telephonic inquiries.</p>

<p>chem engineering....ummm....i have no idea
however i would say if u get into ann arbor....go for it....it shud be ur first choice
as compared to other univs on ur list.....its a million times better ;)</p>

<p>imperial college</p>

<p>University of Manchester. You'll get a top 3 research institute (RAE 2008), a teaser of a scholarship and great graduate prospects.</p>
