"Google, like most other companies, requires a BS (equivalent) for all
their programming positions.
This probably is a direct application of an American idea to an Indian
population. The average Indian engineering graduate has spent 14 years
of cut-throat competition at school, the last 2 years of it "coaching"
to get into a good college, 4 years of dubious college education, the
last 2 years of it getting coached for CAT."
