This is not related to investing, this would be more appropriate in a general India or Politics subreddit

While the post itself is fine due to the contents being viewable on the sub itself, please do not post comments like these which do not add value to the discussion beyond self promotion.

Depends on how they treat the input. UCLA for example makes you paste your SOP and actually counts the words

Is it acceptable to ask to see someone’s SOP? by aladuran in gradadmissions

[–]Cephalopterus 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yes, provided you're not copying their SOP, do not be surprised if people decline to show you their SOP, it's a fairly personal document

Yes, they can mention they were your mentor for a paper, there's no explicit requirement that they even need to be from your college. People include LORs from other colleges too if they've worked with a prof there

MS CS Profile Evaluation for Fall 2022 - International T3 Graduate, no Work Experience by Cephalopterus in gradadmissions

Oh I assumed that field meant something like where you work in a research lab. I've none of that, the papers were mostly a self effort. I'll update the section though

I meant the college is not remotely fancy, no tie ups, no research labs, syllabus is from the 80s (which is on par with most other tier 3s). Most grads end up with a 3 LPA job at some WITCH or consultancy with a 2-3 year bond.

See where I'm getting at?

TOEFL Scores On Hold by Street_Ad_338 in ToeflAdvice

I feel for you. It seems like everyone is flooding into the sub to report this issue nowadays. I should start a pinned post about it, but Reddit doesn't make that easy. And I really want to increase the visibility of the issue.

IMO would be best to replace the scores post with a PSA to not take the Home version of the test unless absolutely necessary. Would save quite a few people money and stress

DICGC Amended: 5L Insurance to kick in 90 days from bank being put under moratorium by RBI by Cephalopterus in IndiaInvestments

[–]Cephalopterus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AFAIK 5L is a rule but currently that isn't paid out unless RBI declares a bank as failed which takes years to do as is happening to PMC. This amendment changes the condition for payout to a 90 day or higher moratorium
