The Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) are highly regarded engineering and technology institutions in India, often compared to top global universities like MIT. Admission is extremely competitive, with around 200,000 candidates vying for approximately 4,000 spots through the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE). While the academic programs are strong, there are concerns about the lack of research funding and the resulting brain drain, as many IIT graduates pursue careers abroad. The education system in India is perceived as rigorous, but some argue that it emphasizes memorization over deep understanding of the material. Overall, IITs produce skilled engineers, but challenges remain in enhancing research capabilities and teaching methodologies.

I think IIT entrance exam is one of the most difficult exam in world.
and who said the final grade depends on final exam only? most of the time the final exam is of 50-60% , which is more or less same as USA.
IIT is really a nice place to study/enjoy life. you have lots of freedom there.
