Why there are so many engineers in India

Well, obviously you've been using horrible developers (you can find them in your home country too).

IIT's are not your average university. Digest this: 34% employees at Microsoft, 28% at IBM, 17% at Intel and 13% at Xerox are of Indian origin.

Gates warned US congress on H1B visas, "U.S. companies simply will not have the talent they need to innovate and compete," and all those Indian students receiving their education at U.S. universities will have to leave, to the detriment of US high tech companies

Can we please not have those made-up stats passed off as real ones? Those numbers were conjured up for a stupid email forward which has no citations. http://www.tehelka.com/story_main38.asp?filename=Op290308sin...

Sorry I refuse to believe in this. Last time I checked, Good folks in India come out irrespective of the college.

I know a lot of IIT'ians who really put the name of the Institute to shame.

Eating on a brand name has been a long used strategy by people in India.
