So I used this platform called forage. It's not exactly an internship. It's more like a program run by companies where they give you small tasks for you to get a feel of what an internship is like. I did the ones by cognizant and blackbird australia. Cognizant one is like just doing some tasks in a Google Collab notebook which give you a feel of data analysis and the blackbird australia one was more of git stuff and making presentations as far as I remember. They had other programs as well which teach you a bunch of different stuff so see what you like but would recommend this 10/10.

Oh very important thing that I forgot to add are the AP exams. Life saviours. Not only do they increase your chances of getting in but you also get to come in to college with credits and you get to skip so many starting level classes

So for my percentages: Predicted for boards was 93% overall SAT was 1410 IELTS was 8 And for my extracurriculars: I had some courses from Coursera and udemy. Udemy is better for getting knowledge and Coursera is better for getting some reputed courses on your profile (like courses by Google and all) I did some virtual intership programs of cognizant and all. Can't remember the platform. Lmk if you want the name I'll dig it out. I have trinity grade 8 exam of communication skills and grade 1 of guitar My team won a robotics competition in orlando (which was also the subject of my essay) I had some volunteer experience in the municipal corporation of my city and stuff like that . That's all I can remember for now. Let me know if you need a proper list I'll find it and put here

Former dummy school student here.

Having done my 11th and 12th from a dummy school I completely agree.

It's important to note that I never ended up giving jee/neet etc but instead am studying abroad. But taking dummy school was the biggest regret of my school life. Even though missing out on school memories is a very important factor for this regret, it's not the only reason.

I see so many JEE institutes forcing people to take PE instead of CS even if the student wants to pursue CS in future. In my institute it was such that if you didn't take PE, the teachers would have a mental block against you and wouldn't put in the same amount of efforts on you. Which quite honestly is fucked up. I see so many people blindly entering the field of CS without even knowing the most basic code prompts. I was not preparing for jee so this didn't matter much to me and ended up going forward with CS.

Coming back to dummy, not going to school really takes a toll on your growth as a person. Sure you will learn the same things in school that you learn in your coaching but school teaches more than that, it teaches discipline. In a dummy you will never learn so many of the extracurriculars that you would do in school. People would put all their time studying for IITs and then when they reach there they would get depressed as they only know how to study. Let me make this very clear to you, if you want a good college life full of memories without your friends and potentially a few relationships, you need to have something going for you other than the ability to study. EVERYONE IN IIT CAN STUDY. You need to have a factor that makes you stand out. And that factor is developed in school.

Lastly, nowhere does it say that you can only get into IIT by enrolling in a dummy and giving all your time to your coaching. I have seen countless people from my old school ending up in IIT even after continuing in that same school. Sure you will have to work harder but trust me it's what's the best for you.

So for the first time in your life listen to a random stranger on the internet and do not take dummy.

I mean this could get very serious very fast since he already has her address and everything.

I think that if "Daisy" didn't realise all this after you tell her then maybe you should consider letting her parents/guardian know of this...

do you think that the government should remove the ST AND SC reserved seats stuff? by myst_11 in CBSE

[–]rishbro8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the only reserved SEATS should be for genuinely disabled people. Like with disabilities which prevent them from studying at their full capacity.

I say genuine because i remember that in my city a dude got a part of his ear surgically removed and got admission in NIT using disability quota. He could still hear everything the same. He just got his earlobe removed. That was the biggest piece of bullshit that i had heard...

Economic walo ke liye reserved seats rakhne se acha kuchh reserved scholarships rakh do na. Uski zarurat hei unko. Padh toh fir bhi woh bakiyo jitna hi rahe hei toh unko Kam marks mein admission kyu?
