The professor makes a great point about how the key to life does not rest with success in one exam. There is more to life and if a person works hard, is persevering and has some luck on their side, every miracle and goal is achievable.

Yes, no forcing in study and sports and other extra curricular activities. Students should decide what they intend to do. No body forced me to prepare OJEE and GATE and IISC Bangalore, MSC, GATE and TOFEL etc. I myself took self interest to prepare. My parents and my uncle did not have such level of knoledge during that time. Myself prepared with my interest. But I clicked every entrance.

He is only sweet in words ,but while jee adv ques 🥵🥵🥵

Mostly it is greed; the lure of big packages offered in the campus recruitments is Irresistible to the parents. Those who succeed only lose a few years of fun, but the huge majority that doesn't make it, lose much more.

I am from IIT Madras. He is an amazing director ❤❤❤ he is so genuine and generous. He loves interacting with students

Rank is not just an integer it is a natural number

I played tennis I played in fields I took bath in river did a lot of fishing dropped to clear exam .....enjoyed life due to no pressure from parents with zest to excel worked hard.....

Okay just to clarify a few things. Im in iitkgp 2024 passout batch. Students are definitely not interested in solving 10k calculus questions or 15k trigonometry questions. The 17-18 year old kid is interested in the life & opportunity that is offered by joining an old IIT. I truly believe that the kind of atmosphere and the facilities available to iit students is something worth working hard for. He is saying that the first year students already look tired, well yes they topped one of the hardest competitions and then again now have entered an even harder competition. The students work so hard managing internship, academics, society activities, etc etc. only an iit alumni or current student can truly relate to the pressure felt by each and every student. This is not the student's fault. This is the culture and system that we have developed for the brightest students to experience in their college life. The society has normalised working extremely hard, & these students have adapted to it, that's all.

Actual problem is age , when you try to improve or explore yourself age becomes an x factor Your 12 th passing age Your jee preparation age Your college age Your selection age Your marriage age 😅

Humble, honest & inspiring person. This is what I also tell my students. The academic performance of a person at one point in his/her education need not define that person's lifelong academic/professional ability (like deciding a person's lifelong caste status by birth). Unlike the caste system, there is no "Ascribed Status" in academic life. Everybody has the potential to enhance their intellectual ability at any age/stage in their life.

And yet YOU decide which branch, Institute and Company the Child has to choose for LIFE based on the Integer

I bow down to you sir ...i respect ur inner talent and humbleness.......love u sir ❤

Please don't cut/edit such a good video. Provide the full video on KZfaq. Even if there is something that goes against general society norms 🙏

Director Prof. Kamakoti is correct and is doing a service to the community by disclosing all this publicly. 🙏 His GATE score in 1989 was some 99+ percentile (99.99 I think). Prof. Kamakoti is brilliant (incredible memory too), truly humble and nice. He scored 95% in CBSE in 12th final exams at a time when it was rare and highly regarded (1985), and was even better than those very good marks. His father was the head of the department of Sanskrit in a very respect college and Dr. Kamakotiand his family have been devotees and serving the Kanchi Sankaracharya Maddamm for generations.

The knowledge required to pass JEE and become an engineer is completely different from the knowledge required to run JEE, manage IIT, etc. To pass JEE one needs science and maths aptitude. To manage or run JEE you need management skills, people skills etc. So no surprise.

17 years and it still hurts

Time has gone to get technology talents like Arun netravali and Vinod dham in the nineties from getting Indian institutions and they are providing multinational salesmen continuously afterwards

Kaha the aap? Absolutely gem of a person...RESPECT upgraded!

I hope that also reach that level after which I can also say that rank is just an integer :D

But the problem is I don't know what to do

Preparation is more important than result

he is my frnds profess in IITM CSE gr8 personality

If you don't know... Gate exam is tougher than any exam in science stream (more tougher than csir net also jee is just a trivial matter)... If he did cleared it then remember he did hard work... An exam can't define your life but it can change your life completely... So, prepare thoroughly and do not listen to anyone do your best

he is such a great sir✨✨

with int data type it was giving an error so i tried double double it worked!!

IIT prep is ruining more careers than it is making in India. Students under the pressure of getting rank and marks focus not on learning the concepts with fun and develop contextual understanding but move towards fast-paced coaching institutes who provide material for cramming the syllabus rather than learning. This is the main reason why students are doing suicides in Kota despite the subjects being so interesting and wonderful to learn because students are not taught how these things like wave equation applies to real world TV / cellphone communication transmission but are burdened with formulas and problems. Students actually do not read books like Resnick but cram from coaching material. Even inside IITs most students do not take interest in their core branches but rather focus on other kind of jobs unrelated to their core engineering. We need drastic measures to move away from this rat-race and madness and reform in education system is very much the need of hour. Parents and society are equal contributors in this crime.

Problem is it is difficult to realy asses the capability of a candidate for a job opening so employers resort to proxies such as where someone graduated and so on. So now getting into a good college is the only way

Indians are still in a mentality that, a few branches engg, doc, lawyer, CA are good for having a secure life. This sense of insecurity, when it leaves India, innovations will start. To live life truly you need to abandon this need for security.

Excellent

The real method of removing discrimination is to allow students to pursue courses across disciplines like in universities in EU and USA. Don't restrict to fields like Mechanical, Chemical, Electronics, etc. Publish a course dependency graph and allow anyone to take any stream of courses (obviously fulfilling prerequisites at each stage). Encourage interdisciplinary learning rather than encouraging narrow specialisation. Specialisation can come in Masters and PhD. But ultimately this needs more teaching resources, higher student capacity, larger number of qualified lecturers, etc. The increased number of IITs is good, but the new ones are supposedly not at the same level as the old ones. This needs to change, lecturers need to move around and lift up the newer IITs. And so on. One of the great things that IIT-M has done over the years, but nobody appreciates or uses that much is NPTEL.

calm down everybody . life is a game which you get to play only once .

IIT JEE is the exam once I was so obsessed with, Now I have scorn for it. It does not take you anywhere in the journey of who you want to become.

No audio in the video.

Misinpreted thumbnail .....DENIED is sounding like they didn't allow you compulsively, but the the actual reason is you didn't scored the Required rank.

JEE is a barbaric process. Even if a child is capable of this barbarism, we as a society should not allow it to happen. Just because the institution is not able to handle the huge number of applicants, they cannot do this evil act.

Let's understand the difference w.r.t his background. He comes from an affluent family which wasn't very worried about his future. My migrant parents from BIhar had a constant fear, if not education then what? And if not STEM then how will she earn a livelihood? I don't blame them for pressurising me.

JEE Advanced rank is just an integer... No its not. Its a Natural number😐

The sad thing is that even as a celebrated IIT,Madras Director and CSE Professor, he disclosed his non-BTech IIT background though he did not have to, to be an inspiration to others. But instead of appreciating his Nobel intent, the half-cup empty Indian mentality of many (not all) is showing here, criticizing him for being TamBrahm. Just like Mahatma Gandhi was lambasted by Muslims that he fought for and Kamal Hasan being lambasted by the very people that he is supporting against his own birth community.

That's the reason why iitm made adv paper relatively easy 😂😂

He forgot to mention that Caste matters in that institute .

Getting a seat in IIT( qualifying JEE advanced) is a really mammoth task. This has to be changed. Studying in IIT grace to be stopped and students going abroad for job / higher studies to be banned or they have to work in India for 5 to 6 years in Indian company's. IITs responsibilities to create paths for average students also to join BTech in IITs. Seat to be increased wrt to Indian population. Companies should not offer salary in crores during campus interviews.

Its not parents...its coaching mafiya and media attention make parents force their kids to go for IIT.....

Things will change when there is quality job opportunity for every ralent

Einstein said something like "don't teach a fish how to climb a tree".

Yes pls, JEE Advance rank is just an Integer. Now give me a branch change to CS ~ a First year student IITM

Talking of confidentiality...can you first make salaries of campus placements confidential. Thats the real culprit that causes discrimination. If no one knows how much CSC student makes or a Chemical Engg. makes, it will cool down discrimination.

It reminds me that it's not so bad...Dear slim

One of the greatest inventions in the previous century and this century is the aircraft. The Wright brothers were not aeronautical engineers. They succeeded in controlling the aircraft absolutely. I don't think that they were aware of integral and differential calculus, differential equations. Now, what are our IITians contributions to heavy engineering? (In India) It is a doubt, my knowledge in this regard is very little. Recently I happened to see a small boy reading a book called "inventions and discoveries", out of academic interest I went through the book. I could not find any of our IITians name in that book. I read about a German Engineer who invented Diesel engine, committed suicide for not getting wide industrial acceptance for his invention then. To put it in a nut shell why torture our poor students. Academic brilliance has nothing to do with intelligence. To answer one or two questions from a particular topic a child has to do 20,000 or even more problems. Let me cut a joke - if money is the aim then it is better to follow Adani or Ambani. Both of them are not Engineers, I think. I strongly believe that a lot of Engineers are working for them.

Teenage students should know that nothing is easy in life. Without hard work nobody is going to make big.. Can we become good athlete, cricketer, singer, business man...etc without hard work?

People who say JEE is hard tough to crwck ane people shouldn't force, No one really cares.... You are measured at your performance, time management and knowledge in the exam .... It js extremely hard but not for the people who designed it implying there is a level of standard thats the look forward to... If you cant crack it, people fail to realise thats not the only optimal path of life ... JEE is tough and its competition is what is making everyone increase their standards.. without that we'll have a bunch of no use PMC students. But the difference is PMC student should aim to learn rather than thinking jee is a life track

😊

Only a STUDENT wants. A good place where he could spend his 4 year peacefully

IITs have biotech and still take pcm students who just take for sake of tag and degree . Such a waste of seat and opportunity for bio students. JEE should incude bio in paper also as optional.

At Jajpur District, Odisha perhaps no body has entered these IITs premises in their life. But I entered. These IITs are: 1. IIT Kharagpur 2. IIT Madras 3. IIT BHU 4. IIT Kanpur 5. IIT Delhi 6. IIT Bhubaneswar 7. IIT Powai 8. IISC Bangalore. I entered these Institutes with having purpose but not for roaming.

arey sir advance ka paper itna hard banaoge to time to dena padega na study me 😂

Can i ask a doubt? Why can’t government of india build more iit institutions? See in this world we are handling all things remotely why can’t we build more Iit’s rather than some statues and money spend for elections? If its just because we don’t have that much faculty why can’t we combine students from different locations and attend online ?

Rank is not an integer kyuki mera aaya hi nhi tha😢😢

Does anyone remember who was JEE AIR 1 in Sundar Pichai's batch.

JEE adv rank is just an integer - says a topper jiske saare integer type ques sahi huye the

Sir, but my jee rank was a double

Hi

+ve integer

Integer ,where you hold in world

These are the few lucky ones born with big brains and wonderful families in functioning countries, they can tell whatever they want, just like Elon Musk saying he doesn’t mind his wealth 😂😂😂😂

Am I the only one who can't hear any audio?

Casteism and Categorical name calling are one of the characteristic features of these Indian IITs😂😂😂😂

So thats how a senior of mine ended up in svce huh

same as my ideology

Director Sir - what is the acronym IIT stand for..? Is it meant to be “…. Iyer and Iyengar Institute of Technolgy…?😢

Build more IITs...the government is making it artificially tougher...build more and increase the intake...

Discrimination on basis of rank is obvious... Remove caste based seats for those who are well to do, then there won't be that... Someone with a st card but annual high income yet a 20k rank more than a general with middle class income is obviously gonna feel more dominant

All things he said are not practically use..Just compare people who get into good college and those who were not ..And let's consider people who pursue there passion OK how many of them are actually making living out it .Even we have thousands of example of artist ,And sportsperson Olympics athlete who r struggling And then government provide them govt jobs.Howmany mainstream singer are making money after they pass their prime ..instead wanna become Woke about other things these director should look into the technological advancement of nation every other technology is get develop by us or west our most of weapon aircraft get imported from foreign countries ....So logically I m not hating on this person but be realistic makesure whatever courseis been taught in iiit madras have

Marks Percentile and percentage are integers for most person 😅 i got 94 percentile still got 75k rank 😂😂

kindly focus on making the DIPLOMA/Online degree worth as offline degree. No one want to listen cricket vs Jee vs dreams vs parents cookup stories.

It's a natural number to be specific 😂.

Common IIT Madras W

I am sure he is something else underneath that soft smiling face .

Not integer. It is a Natural number

He is professor 😅😅 so don't take it seriously 😅😅😅😅😅

Children these days are lacking 'Unstructured Play' where the child is using it's own imagination to play with random objects and no particular game rules or objects with instruction.

Most nightmare things for science student is jee😢 I hate jee and iits😢

Sir... why can't IIT's make these entrance exams easy.... while you say that so much of stress is not needed....I admit you are correct that so much of exam stress is not needed.

No son or daughter wants to study or work hard in studies..so leave them to go ..

so you are a politician

Ok ok took me to APJ Kalam

What professor think that iit is good because of them no but none of them are good because of them only no iit is in top 100.

U have not cleared jee then u are no more talented. Doing mtech and PhD from IIT is not big deal. It's ur luck or maybe hardwork who bring u at this position.

or natural number

Catch 22 situation for the administration - do it you are damned; don't do it you are doubly damned!

*Positive integer

Indian Sam Altman

Rank doesn't have to be an integer, it can also be a string. Rank can be 'not qualified'

Rank is an "integer" he says. Not rank is just a number.

Toh kaare kyaa ye bhi aap baata do jaab aaap gaarib ke ghaar mai paida hote ho na aur koi rasta nahi bachta ye saab be faajul ke baate hai

Jokes on you, my rank was LONG

Ohh please...just integer??? They are the most finest brains of the entire world..but you would not understand as you have not cracked JEE.

Perks of wearing a Noo (sacred thread) l.. Never in the history of iit madras has there been a director who doesn't wear that sacred thread.. forget about being the director, they wouldn't let you create a new course if you don't wear that nool

BS. Dont show this to your children!

your tambram privilegs is what got you a director seat..now you are continuing the same privilege and mnot stopping harassment against dalit students in IITs..

IIT denied admission because you failed in the entrance exam. You got IIT director position because of brahmin lobby.
