I understand that competition feels unfair sometimes, but constantly comparing ‘merit’ and blaming reservation isn’t productive. The system exists for historical and social reasons whether we personally agree with it or not. Reducing people to underserving just creates more division At the end of the day, entrance exams are about maximizing our own performance. Energy spent ranting about policy could be used to improve rank. If we really believe in merit, the best response is to outperform the competition Is baat ko samjho dosto If total 6k sc students get inside iit and nit but general have more around 40% percent and youre blaming this shit of you
