Alma Matters: Inside the IIT Dream Season 1 Full Episode Guide
Students in IIT KGP are 100 miles from the city, with nobody except people exactly like them for company. Teamwork creates magic and loneliness kills. Friendship, like filtered air, is easy to get addicted to and takes a lifetime to quit.
The hallowed placement season at IITs, the time of 20-hour days, of borrowed suits and ties, piecing together a resume with a bullet point here and a bullet point there, plucked out of 3 years of life not particularly well spent.
