who says IIT's entrance exam is crap... I'll tell u.. "crap"
Only after gettin in here ,ull know why u studied all that Chemistry and Physics to do your CS course. And anyway , u want to be -no knowledge- about chem and phy... theyre essential dude... the basic chem and phy u learn.
Dude the "basic" phy n chem comin in IIT exam is not basic at all n i'm saying for COurse Specific requrements .
Like for Computer Science , only basic class XII chem is important , phy is a bit more important but most important is Maths .
same way , for Engineering CHem n Phy n Maths all are very very imp .
So point is they should take separate exams for courses that r not heavily dependant on PCM .
Also , most ppl get into IIT without thinking of what they wanna do or what they like , they just want the stream in which they'll get the "best package" !
When i went to give TOEFL(Oct 28 , there was a Group of 12 IIT Kanpur guys , you just had to look at them no personality at all , kinda geeks u cud say . n thier test went awry , most of em could'nt even speak coherently in the Speaking section . This is what you get at IIT !
Similarly , IIT should give stream ot person based on how good he is at that task , heck for CS they don't even have a computer exam , jerks who have studied PCM all life get the CS course , just because they had a higher "rank" . Quite a few of these guys work on a computer only for the first times in their lives .
