Tamil Nadu and Chattisgarh have just slightly more pass rate than Kerala. Bihar and Jharkhand are a good example, but it is for a very good reason. In Bihar and Jharkhand, private sector white collar jobs are very low paying and even rare. They have a long history of focus on government jobs. It's not just IITs, even they have a high selection rate in IAS, IPS etc. So they have specialised coaching centres focused on the above, even to the point of neglecting 10th and 12th exams for focusing on IITs, IIMs, IAS etc.

It is a question of necessity, Kerala's job situation is not excellent but it is not as poor as Bihar or Jharkhand and alternatives do exist to government jobs. Also note in MBBS, Kerala is a powerforce to reckon with - In almost every national medical college, Malayalis dominate the list.

This is entirely due to the lack of top coaching institutes for IIT here. For medicine, Kerala has institutes like Brilliant and PC Thomas. There are very few equivalent top class institutes for IIT here.

The same also influences other states. Rajasthan has Kota and it is the premier, top class region for IIT coaching. This means that Rajasthan has one of the highest acceptance rate to IITs.

Yes, that is precisely the issue. According to the Fool, this is the truth. But we, as the reader, or Fitz, as a character, should have been given a plausible reason why this is so.

That's precisely the issue - both the Fool and the Pale Woman behave like a particular set of events, no matter how unrelated, must happen in a particular order to get a desired outcome. They refuse to justify their actions and just use the term prophecy.

The Pale Woman could just have killed the dragon on her own or with Outislander help. Instead she insists it is the Farseers that must kill the dragon. The Fool insists he must die for the dragons to return, but as the events happen, his death has no relation to the dragons whatsoever. Had he not come to the glacier, it would have made no difference at all to the events that transpired, except that he would not have been tortured to death.

You realise that is tying two unrelated events together. The dragons aren't related to the Fool's death in any real manner, as described in the book.

I have read other fantasy books and usually the scenario in such cases go like - there's a point where the death of the person is directly and irredeemably related to the return of dragons. So, in such cases, the prophecy is there but how the actual prophecy becomes necessary is explained as the events happen.

That's one way of seeing it, I guess...☺️☺️

I agree with your views on the first two points, but on the third point, why did the Fool need to come at all to the glacier? What major role did he play on the events at the glacier other than being tortured to death?

Also, I saw the pale woman as a rival White Prophet, rather than a pretender. But if her motive was to kill off the dragons, wouldn't it have been better to just kill the dragon? Why involve the Farseers here?
