Of the 6 key leadership people (including the ISRO chairman) who were driving the Chadrayaan mission – except for 1 or 2, all the remaining never went to the ivy IIT for their undergrad engineering. Yes, for post grad / PhD – IISC & IIT s
Hope parents understand this😇
Legacy institutes matter but, not as much as it’s emphasized
But…when I look at the corporate world CEOs who moved beyond the shores – almost all would have an IIT tag 🤣
To land on the moon in life, we necessarily don’t need a IIT tag 🤐 – I see enough examples in front of my eyes
I know it’s important to have some tags in life but they aren’t the beginning or the end in themselves.
Many kids are doing brilliantly and getting into great careers & jobs or entrepreneurship roles at a very young age without any of these tags. I know for sure – they earn much more than the majority of these IIT grads (if that’s one of the parameters to look at)
