Nice, milk those connections ;)</p>

From what I’ve heard from my South Asian friends, you’ll actually learn much more at IIT than MIT. But I’d imagine that the quality of life in Cambridge is far superior.</p>
<p>I am an Indian but I do not think the education at IIT is better than most American Universities. Sure, it might be better for just pure engineering. But if you want a more allrounded education, where you develop not only as an engineer but in other aspects as well, no Indian or even Asian University can provide that.</p>
<p>Yeah…that’s also a factor…IITs are government institutions…the food’s not fit for human consumption…and the living spaces are cramped (6 people in one small room)…and the professors know less than the brilliant students who go there…</p>
<p>I just got accepted off the waitlist yesterday. There’s still hope</p>
