We call it "Sheep Walk" !!!! Wonder why can't people find alternatives ? Probably Indians do not think out of the box ! Probably Indians never want to explore the areas other than what has been there for ages.
I took an alternative path to IT got my self certified in the highest levels of Vendor Certifications ..and I work along side IITians and earn more than them ..simply because I am good at something unique and have not crammed my head with things I do not need to perform my job thus outdoing the so called elite college Grads.
The problem is that when I am in India people think I am qualified enough ! cause I do not have an IIT or BIT degree. But when I am outside India ..hardly any of the employers know what IIT or BIT is!!!! They just want to know if you can bring them money! and they are more than willing to share a major part of it with you. Of course if you want to only wave the degree and claim that you have an Mtech!! cool go ahead I mean while would like to wave the bank notes!

Sanjay, i can understand that you are one among those frustus who couldnt make it to the IITs. And now you try to prove a point that you are well off than the IIT grads. Why dont you accept the fact that you were incompetent.
And i see that you wrote that you earn more than the IIT grads. Do they have the same experience as you are. What you earn after 5 or 6 years of ass-busting, the IIT grads earn in no time. So, please refrain from spreading farce.
And the final highlight comedy is, "Employers dont know what is an IIT". Man, you will be better off as a bollywood comedy script writer. Even BBC and other new channels have made documentaries about IIT and the standard of those kids who make it into IITs. And you puke something on the message board. This is a message board and not you story board.
