Money power plays a big role in getting seats even if one has good marks. I read that in TN a medical seat is going for Rs 2 crores in private colleges.

It's the same here. Buy any seat with money in any college. Education has become a lucrative business.

No doubt increasing number of Indian students are taking admissions abroad where they get their course of choice and it many times is cheaper than costs in India. I know a father who sent his son to study for his 11th and12th equivalent school course abroad as he said he can get admission without hassle in a good college and cost will also be less. He succeeded and both are today doctors abroad.

In India education still based on money. In foreign countries they are taking money as well as providing good education for their students and based on merit they are providing jobs for the right candidates. In India several colleges taking money from students and didn't give good education. Some colleges didn't get AICTE permission for conducting courses.

Even I have seen so many schools are running just on a brand name without proper affiliation.."proposed CBSE affiliation" , and parents also don't think twice before admitting their kids to such schools.

Education should develop the aspect of thinking in a person. But it is only based on books. It should be made practical so that students should understand what ever they study.

Students are just learning theory from most of the books but in real world everything is practical. Definitely education system should be change. Good students who are studying very well also lose their seats in good colleges in point difference for the seat in counseling.

Education system in India has become a money making business. Otherwise there won't be 552 engineering colleges in Tamil Nadu and 1.2 lakh seats fall vacant in this year counselling. Quality of education should be improved. A diploma passed out student has much more in depth knowledge on the subject than an engineering graduate. Many advancements have come in all technologies. But students still study only first or second generation technology. This drawback pushes students into many coaching centers to learn what they need at this point of time.
