+1 We are shelling out more B.Techs than Engineers. This is prevalent from choice of course to choice of job. Most of the citizens(superset of students :) ) take up job for money and not for passion to create/develop something interesting or innovative. > Well said. In Pune University, you get extra marks for sports (as told > to us by the sports manager, but I don't believe that), but a project, > there's no mention of that. Even if you have done something substantially interesting and good, in most of the colleges you are tagged as copy cat or fake during vivas and exams. Giving extra marks or incentives is far away. Given that, despite these flaws in the so called education system, I have noticed that most teachers(depends upon there awareness) do appreciate your extra work and though they can't give you any extra incentive directly (due to obvious contraints), but they do let you(or the whole batch if many students are doing good work) have some privileges. Then in current circumstances it is up to the students to make most of that opportunity (I guess most people here have done that). -- > Nilesh Govindarajan > http://nileshgr.com > > -- > Mailing list guidelines and other related articles: > http://lug-iitd.org/Footer > -- Regards Siddharth Srivastava -- Mailing list guidelines and other related articles: http://lug-iitd.org/Footer
