The answer is simple. Score zero, leave India and go to college in the US. You can be a complete idiot and go to Harvard. Look at a Ted Kennedy.
Okay, so I know who to outsourse to.
I would like to see China's. Bet it is tough also.
Yeah.....they may know all that stuff, but they don't know how to use it to make $100K a year.....
I'm sure I did those math problems in 9th gradee, I didn't take physics though, so I can't say I know any of that, I'm in 12th grade now, and other than the physics, I'd say I could pass that without a large amount of trouble, I don't think we're too far behind... but I also do go to a private school, don't knwo if that makes a difference
Are they allowed to use a calculator? :-)
All your call centers are belonging to us.
Looks like a pain in the ass, but all stuff I've seen and done before... I bet I could at least pass the thing.
So...why do they live in mud huts?
The math section isn't that different than what my kids are taking now in H.S (9th and 11th grade).
However the science section surprised me regarding the electrical section, more akin to a freshman first semester EE course at your local college.
However please note that the state requirements test where I live is waaaaaay watered down from this......
That`s like here in New York city, at NYU. A lot of Asian families overseas lay out everything to send their kid to this bastion of liberal puss, and the kid commits suicide when they don`t learn anything and fail exams because the Professors are too busy talking about the evils of Bush in every lecture. Do a search in Google, "suicide NYU".. Just about every year there is another one.
It is a bit of a silly question- we are seeing the test cold, and I bet the majority of posters have been out of school 10+ years. However, if we had the time that Indian students have to study for the exam, I think many American students would be able to pass it.
I could have passed the Math portion when I was in prep school in 1966. Today? Not a chance.
"Answer these questions and you will become like me."
Boy, they really do love Cramer's Rule and matrices, don't they? :-P
No, I couldn't answer those questions now but I'll bet I could if I'd spent the past year or more studying it. I do remember doing much of that math in high school and I did take physics but don't remember one bit of it. :-P
Cheers!
That's all well and good, but do the students feel good about themselves?
Where's the part about where you discuss your own self-esteem?
I never thought I'd live to see the day that I would say what I am about to say. I'd rather clean the toilets in an all male hunting camp than take this exam. LOL
Simple!
Great test and a humbling experience. The math wasn't that bad but that's a lot of EE and optics for a high-schooler. I might have given them a run for their money in biology, though. BTT and good luck!
