Biswa's stories are legends . . extreme levels of gareebi, exploitation, horrible childhood, hilarious and still talks like a boss . . Mast aadmi literally
It all boils down to the same problem in India - overpopulation. And overpopulation coupled with unequal wealth distribution. So people need to fight it out with each other for every resource, be it education, resources, life hence the intense competition. And there is always an industry to service the privileged section because they can afford and it helps them beat the competition. The Same logic applies to why corruption is so widespread in our culture
Biswa is so perceptive and socially aware, that's what makes him a great comedian. And yeah, I passed ICSE in 2009- Dalal was blue. My sister passed in 2015 and it was still blue. Dalal was the first book where I first became familiar with blurbs XD
5:09 "I am at the top part of the bell curve" Which actually means that he is an average middle class person. A bell curve a distribution of data centered at mean value. Which can be interpreted as some property on x-axis (apparently money or privilege here) and the Y-axis shows the frequency (or the number of people having the money or privilege) of that property. So naturally average or mean has the greatest frequency and it makes top part of bell curve. He should have said he is at the rich bottom edge of bell curve. Now you can like this comment so that more people get the same enlightenment and then even Nevill will have to read this comment.
Few facts. 1. It's approximately 15 lakh ppl writing IITJEE, of which 15000 get an IIT rank. (Biswa's point). 2. The dropout rate of IITs is very low. Due to peer and parental pressure, kids don't opt to drop out and IIT system gives them up to 2 extra years to complete their degree requirements. (Neville's point) 3. Sad fact. Even a degree from an IIT doesn't 'set' your life. You need to become employable or become an entrepreneur. 4. Extending on the previous point, only 7% of the Engineering graduates are employable material. So, parents take note of what the kids' aptitude and interest is in; rather than jumping the engineering/medicine bandwagon.
Now they've 20000 seats. But trust me going for University of Waterloo rather than any IIT or NIT (which I could not have, cuz I scored so bad in mains & advance) of my life. + There's this flexibility of choosing & doing what we want during our undergraduate program cuz of various coops. We seriously lack this in INDIA
*Karan- one way for you to not sound annoying is to NOT speak the obvious. Filter what you're about to say in your head and think whether or not it is worth interjecting someone's well made point. Pretty please!*
I don't think so. He used his personal example as representative of what happens to a majority of people in India, whereas that is clearly not the case (lots of kids still don't have viable career options in liberal arts). His eventual point wasn't even about the Indian Education System; it was that there are options *because* Liberal Arts education isn't streamlined or "capitalized" (in fact at 3:17 he goes so far as to say that "the liberal arts education system doesn't exist") . And, as an aside, to counter Neville's assertion, I don't see any issue with learning Shakespeare by translating it into Odiya. If adaptation and translation is good enough for Kurosawa and Vishal Bhardwaj, surely it's good enough for people speaking Odiya.
Prashant Malani Can you please explain his point? By liberal arts, I understand education in History, Literature, Economics (taught as arts in India, science almost everywhere abroad) philosophy and so on. I found his assertion exactly opposite of what the ground reality is. There is a very mainstream education system for the liberal arts in India, though it isn't valued much (going against his assertion of no systematic liberal arts education, I think that's what his point was) whereas any career opportunities in the liberal arts is SEVERELY limited as we don't place much value in it, so research and theoretical studies are highly undervalued (again counter to his point of lot of opportunities in careers in liberal arts). I mean what was he even saying?!
Annie Honestly I can't. I was merely trying to make sense of what was said. I'm all for differing view points if they are backed by some fact, but his argument here clearly isn't. I think you summarized what he was attempting(quite poorly) to explain, quite well.
Awesome podcast. Great discussion. I liked how healthy the discussion was. No biased opinions only. Cool comparisons with good examples. I loved that you guys did not just share your personal stories, but had a good talk on social norms and politics as well.
Annie It got lost in all his excitement. But what he meant was that once the top tier gets to all the colleges and the dust settles you will be able to do what you really want to do as you will break free from parental pressure that science padho, engineering karo and all. But I dunno if I am right! He didn't explain very well.
I guess if I am to put Neville's point in a different perspective, what he meant was that the moment we start having having tuitions/coaching classes for arts such as tuitions for stand up comedy is when we lose interest along with all the rules and money involved in the same, which fortunately doesn't happen in Indian because we don't take arts seriously hence there is a lot of freedom to mould the craft in the manner that we'd like
What i did (I dropped a year to get into medical) its was depressing as fuck.I had classes for like 4 hours but i used to stay their (Aalash Institute) for almost 8-10 hours just to avoid the Depression pf being alone at home when ur friends have gone ahead and u stay their.Yeah and stidied a bit and got a better college next time.But looking back i feel it wasnt worth it the trauma,The mental exhaustion wasnt worth it all."
then there is my 11th and 12th standard English tuition teacher, who is still in my life after four years. We are friends now and I am glad we are still talking.
Abhi tak blue color ki cover hai bro chemistry book pe. 😂😂. And very true about the compliments section on the book. Keeps increasing every year with new schools being added.
I went for this private group tuitions for 11th science. Teacher’s teaching method was amazing, copy solved examples from textbook and try to solve questions on your own. Same thing for physics, write concepts from books and understand it by yourself. And that tuition was overpriced af. He literally taught me that you need to learn things on your own.
Indian education has been reduced to a point that anywhere in the timeline of the education, you are preparing for something. 10th, then 12th, then college, then placements, or higher education. Moreover, the people outside select organisations are considered unfit for a genuine pursuit of knowledge. The major problem with learning today is, it's too hard to bring out grit. The zest of learning isn't matched because teachers are rare embarking their knowledge for the knowledge itself. It's always an exam. We should do away with preparing people and, start them on guilt free learning. Like, learn because you want to, not because you have to.
Wow! In 42mins you guys spoke about basically everything but ur fav tuition stories😂 big fan of u guys but change the thumbnail or the name of the vid guys😂 love u all ❤️
Damn, I totally get what Neville says. I am majoring in Physics right now and I thought I was the only one who only 'conceptually liked Physics'. People don't get it when I say I like Physics on the side. I hate giving exams and don't want a career in it, but I love the classes.
No doubt that this college entrance system is exhausting.. been through it . Didn't get in but rather landed somewhere so damn worse . Totally agree with KT when he said that in respect of college education, the states have it very well sorted . Tier process etc etc
India has graduated from billboards to tv interviews about toppers. You guys should actually go and interview someone who is trying to pass the CA final exams. I can assure some interesting responses.
Biswa's stories are legends . . extreme levels of gareebi, exploitation, horrible childhood, hilarious and still talks like a boss . . Mast aadmi literally
he was not a gareeb,.
Didnt say he was gareeb . . his stories
those are middle class stories not a gareeb one.
Rakshith M ok
because most of it is relatable and most of the Indians come from that same background....
The video captured by camera which is pointing towards biswa and KT is how world looks when you're high and/or drunk
Not just me then. I thought that something is wrong with me.
Holy shit you are right
I'm a simple man. I see biswa I like the video
simply true
kuch naya likh na re, for a change copy-paste saala
True
It all boils down to the same problem in India - overpopulation. And overpopulation coupled with unequal wealth distribution.

The camera focusing on karan is on acid😂😂😂😂
Biswa is so perceptive and socially aware, that's what makes him a great comedian. And yeah, I passed ICSE in 2009- Dalal was blue. My sister passed in 2015 and it was still blue. Dalal was the first book where I first became familiar with blurbs XD
It's still blue 😂

I learned something new today. All thanks to you man.
Lol, you are right man!
Maybe Neville was trying to say that he was average with a lot of confidence. JK!
What if he meant what he said
I WAS ABOUT TO COMMENT ABOUT THIS
....BUT ..NICE..YOU DID IT ALREADY
Normal distribution
Biswa was like "bhaari first world problems inka" ... :D :D
Biswa's rap 😂
SNG adding audience in Podcast itself (That guy sitting in middle )
parag3722 XD
He looks stoned AF
Bengali Stereotype was soooo on the mark!!
And biswa's face at 10.23
Few facts.
1. It's approximately 15 lakh ppl writing IITJEE, of which 15000 get an IIT rank. (Biswa's point).

15000 get an IIT rank, but not all get in IIT's. IIT's have less 10000 seats!
Now they've 20000 seats. But trust me going for University of Waterloo rather than any IIT or NIT (which I could not have, cuz I scored so bad in mains & advance) of my life. + There's this flexibility of choosing & doing what we want during our undergraduate program cuz of various coops.
We seriously lack this in INDIA
I laughed out loud after so many days man! Biswa sacchi mast aadmi hai.
Sab discussion karte hai, last me biswa teacher ki tarah conclusion karta hai. He is really inteligente
Petition to change the podcast's name to 'Flaws in Education system'
*Karan- one way for you to not sound annoying is to NOT speak the obvious. Filter what you're about to say in your head and think whether or not it is worth interjecting someone's well made point. Pretty please!*
This podcast just makes me realise what an amazing job AAP govt is doing with Education in Delhi!
Dying to see Abhishek Upmanyu on here!
elzish Karunesh Talwar bhi yaar!
Been waiting for biswa for a long time, finally ❤️
In next life I want to be born as Biswa living his current life.
Abhishek Verma what about his childhood ?
What Biswa said about the Kota thing and the teachers getting paid 1 crore is absolutely true.I have seen it.😶
priyanshi chaturvedi Even Upto 3 crore p.a?!
Everybody knows
Yup its true. Fellow kota lifer.
Biswa's stories bring the fun to this podcast .
I miss Varun in this podcast . He might have funny stories to say.
Never clicked on a video faster👏
Biswa❤❤
I did my 10th in 2015 from ICSE...had the same blue chemistry book😂😂
isha sharma I had same book as well... 😂😂😂
My year was 2012-13.
Same😂. I was from 2014-15 batch.
2010 batch as well 🤤
Im in ICSE now (2018 batch), nothing has changed
Waiting for that that guy who asks to bring Kriti Sannon for the podcast on Nepotism...!!😂😂😂
Himmat Singh hahahhahhahahah
He comments on every video
Kriti Sanon hi kyun, Kriti Kharbanda bhi toh ho sakti hai? Shayad woh South ka banda hai
10:22 "teacher was a female right" biswa's expression 😂😂
Best Video of the Season. Laakhon mein Ek to last week hi dekh liya tha. Awesome series..
Man, I can't understand what point is Neville trying to make....
Prashant Malani He is potraying the positive side of 'Indian Education System' And I think He Did It Very Well
I don't think so. He used his personal example as representative of what happens to a majority of people in India, whereas that is clearly not the case (lots of kids still don't have viable career options in liberal arts). His eventual point wasn't even about the Indian Education System; it was that there are options *because* Liberal Arts education isn't streamlined or "capitalized" (in fact at 3:17 he goes so far as to say that "the liberal arts education system doesn't exist") .

Prashant Malani Maybe I Misinterpreted his words ...Well Explained Mate! THANK YOU😊

20+mins of part1 and 8mins of this 1 n still waiting for a single BEST TUITION STORY
Found this amazing podcast and I am grateful!
For Biswa- I love you Biswa Married Aadmi
The fact that my school is still using the Viraf Dalal Chemistry textbook amuses me. This video is gonna be relatable till the end of time.
thanks for bringin Biswa back. he got awesome tution stories.
biswa's stories are relatable af
Awesome podcast. Great discussion. I liked how healthy the discussion was. No biased opinions only. Cool comparisons with good examples. I loved that you guys did not just share your personal stories, but had a good talk on social norms and politics as well.
04:15 Kautuk was right!!😂😂
Great podcast enjoyed each minute! Great selection of topic.
ANYBODY understand what exactly was Neville's point?! Anyone?! Please enlighten.
Annie Probably even he doesn't know.
Annie It got lost in all his excitement. But what he meant was that once the top tier gets to all the colleges and the dust settles you will be able to do what you really want to do as you will break free from parental pressure that science padho, engineering karo and all.

Neville has bathed
and he looks good.
Keep up the good work huh!😀
Yeahhh... I am in love with him
That exhaustion point after actually cracking an entrance exam! So damn true. Bang on, Biswa 🙏
Amazing podcast. Love the video and the channel. Sooooooo hilarious 😂. You all are mind blowing
Absolutely amazing! :)
Aha! Dalal .Brings back such memories.I gave my ISCE in 2015,and it had the same thing, 5 pages of recommendations😂.
this was the best episode of this season.. many of us will be relating their life with these scenarios
HOLY EXPLETIVE
So relatable.
He took the words from my mouth.
main fisherman ka drawing bana raha hai...:) that was hilarious!!
at 10.24 Biswa's reaction hahahahaha.......
Biswa hoga toh trending pe aayega
why did you have a statue in the middle?
Dropping out is Depressing
i know a guy who dropped out of degree college and joined my diploma college
I know. Dropped for 2 yrs.
What does one do after dropping out? Like what's the next step?
Yes ..i am year down second time this year 👍🏻
What i did (I dropped a year to get into medical) its was depressing as fuck.I had classes for like 4 hours but i used to stay their (Aalash Institute) for almost 8-10 hours just to avoid the Depression pf being alone at home when ur friends have gone ahead and u stay their.Yeah and stidied a bit and got a better college next time.But looking back i feel it wasnt worth it the trauma,The mental exhaustion wasnt worth it all."
I wonder why are SNG podcasts so underrated? Just 64000 views!!
Most of them are either informative or a great time pass in general.
Something's up with the camera at Biswa and Karan
This is the first video of sng that i've like (like literally I clicked on the like button).
I think your show needs to focus more on such social topics with a mix of satire
....he would ask some random question, like,
"Kidhar Hai?"
Someone says, "Sandaas"
Lol! (12:30)
It's neville
then there is my 11th and 12th standard English tuition teacher, who is still in my life after four years. We are friends now and I am glad we are still talking.
Abhi tak blue color ki cover hai bro chemistry book pe. 😂😂. And very true about the compliments section on the book. Keeps increasing every year with new schools being added.
I appeared for ICSE in 2017, the Viraf Dalal book still hasn't changed 😂
That transition from our favorite tuition story to problems of indian education system
Biswa man... respect thnk u for doing this podcast.
Thumbs up for Biswa.. genuine and super simple jokes
Listen to Richard Feynman lectures... MIND BLOWN @Karan
I LOVE Biswa's accent
"Paint me like one of your French teachers" 😂😂
I went for this private group tuitions for 11th science. Teacher’s teaching method was amazing, copy solved examples from textbook and try to solve questions on your own. Same thing for physics, write concepts from books and understand it by yourself. And that tuition was overpriced af. He literally taught me that you need to learn things on your own.

Wow! In 42mins you guys spoke about basically everything but ur fav tuition stories😂 big fan of u guys but change the thumbnail or the name of the vid guys😂 love u all ❤️
UK, Brazil, US, Australia everywhere teachers are paid less.. even Latin American countries too.
My college friends were from different coaching classes & my coaching class friends were from different colleges.
Damn, I totally get what Neville says. I am majoring in Physics right now and I thought I was the only one who only 'conceptually liked Physics'. People don't get it when I say I like Physics on the side. I hate giving exams and don't want a career in it, but I love the classes.
Biswaaa
Hey biswa nice ending bhai, your rap is hilarious funny
simply adding imprompt pun to convert a tense situation into anything funny - that's kalyan biswa
And the real SNG guys are always like please suno humara suno kisi aur ko bolne hi maat do. 😁😁
Uk what.. The text book is still blue!!😂😂😂
The NCERT political science textbooks are pretty good..
um... No they are not.....
Manish Mishra I completely agree. Even history. They've updated them in the recent past and they're very interesting.
Manish Mishra yeah, the books were interesting
They ACTUALLY are and the History books too...
Call biswa again
listening to biswa's stories seems like he had an interesting life
The last time I saw it ,the book was still BLUE
@ biswa : what book were you talking about? it sounds amazing, I would definitely want to give that a read!
Best OUTRO
Neville can hijack and ruin every discussion
Kautuk:- I think in 10 years *something related to main point of conversation* will happen
Everyone:- It Is Already there since so many years.
Biswa is great....n in North 7X is aka pithu fhood😊👍
Biswas rap was Ultimate move. !!
For Kautuk : People in corporate get trainings.
'Aham cant' 😂
No doubt that this college entrance system is exhausting.. been through it . Didn't get in but rather landed somewhere so damn worse . Totally agree with KT when he said that in respect of college education, the states have it very well sorted . Tier process etc etc
lmao yes viraf Dalal. we still have that
PREACH...!!!!!
You should also do fav school stories.
Biswa at 10:20
😂😂😂😂👌
I am a dropper and depression hasn't hit me yet but after watching this podcast I definitely see it coming
Lucy Heartfilia oh my god SAMS
SAME*
Biswa in the end😂😂😂
Intresting
Knowledge but practically not implemented is same as constipation 👍😂😂😂
Liked bcz of biswa's rap
Viraf Dalal book ka color same hai! 😂😂😂
Can you do podcast on the sweetest thing fans ever done to you?
Lol we still have the same Viraf J Dalal book for chemistry 😂 It's still blue😂 colour nahi badla😂
Viraf Dalal 😂 ahhh!! Nostalgia
India has graduated from billboards to tv interviews about toppers. You guys should actually go and interview someone who is trying to pass the CA final exams. I can assure some interesting responses.
