That's interesting to hear. I have a number of people working for me who are in our Hyderabad office and when they showed me their school on a map, I found it was usually extremely small, hardly looked like a college at all. And there seem to be a lot of schools, pretty much everywhere. I get that India is extremely large to that makes some sense, but it's interesting to hear another perspective from someone who has been through the schooling.

Anecdotally, the people on my team seem quite smart and capable, regardless of whatever quality of education they received, but we did have an intern locally who had a bachelor's from a school in India and was working on his masters at Oregon State University -- he knew so little about how to even use computers, much less write code that wasn't copy/paste from Stack Overflow, I was amazed that he was an actual master's student.
