We see a long tradition of “big” indian schools that the students come to mostly USA for higher studies. GRE and TOEFL are must for all. Reason is simple. There are more universities and probably more funding in United States of America. Some students also go to Germany, England and Canada. Rest of the students probably spread across the world.
Imtiaz Ali did the proper thing. He went to Korea. Imtiaz Ali was very popular even in his time at Kharagpur IIT. He plays flute very well. He also participated in numerous dramas. Undoubtly, he has become very pupolar in Korian school! Imtiaz taught many that oppertunities are not only restricted in USA. He broke the traditional thinking and proved that we only need hard work to succeed in our life.
We wish good luck to Imtiaz Ali for his promising PhD work in crystallography and also congratulate for his appearence in International tribune Herald. We will expect some nice articles from Imtiaz describing his unique experience in chemistry and Korea!
