People who are not studying from IIT/NIT.... does it still hurts somewhere deep knowing that you can never be an IITian.
We all wanted to be IITian... no matter what we say now that skills matter, NIT/IIT does make little difference, you have to work hard, you can succeed in life later...etc, etc...
But that dream which we saw, it still hurts right?
I don't know about you guys....but it will forever hurt me...like whenever someone will talk about IITs and all it will still hold same pain, even if I will do good later in life.
It was my childhood dream.

LavaLeviathanAfter seeing the state of top iit/nit infrastructure, I don't regret it at all
AlchemistGoldI had bigger dreams (achievable) but money issue, family problems and all so had my dreams cut down to IIT then to be an IITian, panicked felt worthless then thought it's not worth it tbh just get a decent college and have chill life if you've asked me way back in 2019 about whether I wanted to be an IITian I would have denied and today I will also say no I don't feel bad, yes if I should've become one it would be good but still it's alright part of life ig

No.
FrostWarrior13Hurt to hota hai aur aage bhi thoda chubhega, but with time I will learn to make peace with it. Regrets karne se konsa wo log mujhe admission de denge.
ObsidianSeekerYes, I'm in a tier 2 NIT but the dream of IIT/BITS kills me every day
SorcererSupremeYa... I am in iiit delhi, even tho it's top tier but still not iit and then fees
OmegaGryphonNot really, I still went to one of the top most college and yeah got decently placed.
Maybe getting that level of placement was only possible if I took cs/elec in top IITs which obvio was not possible with my adv rank.
But yea lol there are few colleges which can give u that level of placement without bragging much.
YggdrasilYetiIt was once, but since I myself rejected top 7 I don't care too much
GrandMasterI am studying at an IIIT (a lower one). To be honest, I am grateful that I am at a position where 97.5% of people wanted to be at at some point.
It is not going to hurt you forever. Couple of years back I had few guilts that I thought will never go from my head. And here we are, I am living the life of my dreams, happy and positive. I now laugh back at those days.
My childhood dream was to be an astronaut, couldn't achieve. Later it changed to be a pilot, no money. Later it became doctor, ran away from it. Later it became IAS, dropped out of B.A. because father wanted me to try luck in engineering. Now I am doing engineering, and I am more than happy, and in a decent position academically as well as technically.
Also, you are gonna regret more about the time you have in hand (if not utilized properly) than IIT tag. Try to avoid unnecessary stress.
