    From my POV- The level on which harkirat bhaiya is now is because of IIT because apart from the IIT UA-cam content, due to IIT he got a chance to work at many big companies which helped him getting big freelancing works as he can tell that he worked in these big companies (due to IIT). However one can achieve the same level of success but still a good university and then working in a good company already make your portfolio better than 1000s of freelancers.
    Another great podcast!

      @@priyanshuvishwakarma1061 he said ki log smart ho gye hain ab thode aware han, well hain actually changes toh but if you see these numbers and environment dekhoge toh dikhega ki us time tha ki engineering me scope hai and now it is ki dr. Ban ne me scope hai, mainly among the choices parents give. So iit and neet arpirants 2014 me the 12.9 lacs and 6.16 lacs respectively, and now in 2023 iit and neet aspirants are 9.3 and 20.24 lacs respectively. So it is more of a shift to another trap(for those who are forced to take that career path on the name of scope)
      Population bhi badhi hai so aspirants badhe hain but jahan medical ke liye pahale belief tha ki jiski maths weak hai vo medical leta hai now it is ki isme paisa aur izzat hai toh bacho ko parents medical dilana prefer karte hain.
      Neet jee closely related hain ek maths ka difference hai baaki mostly coachings me jee bhi ho rahi hoti hai neet bhi and these are two major exams baaki dusre career options location wise bhi depend karte hain in rural areas mostly people prefer there son daughter to be a doctor whereas if you go to some metro city there people aare interested into commerce but here I’m majority talking about two options kyuki science ke baad ye hi option dete hain parents bacho ko and ussi me pahale preference di jaati thi iit ko nowadays medical ko
