Why India ? Perhaps it's better than Sharjah, but is somewhere in the West not an option ? Considering you want to do arts, that is.Quote:

My parents are still in Sharjah and don't plan to come back for a longer time.
Ok ! Arts as in performing arts, fine arts ? Still deciding ? Locational preferences ? Heck I'm sounding like a package tour guide :)Quote:

That's why I asked. I hear in the US you can enroll in undergrad programmes without declaring what to major in and credit courses over the years and then decide your major. That system does not exist in India.Quote:

I have a feeling Niranjana is going to Kerala, Pa!! Am I right, dear???? :)
Exactly! Most ppl here don't know what they want to majour in until they get to college and take a few courses. I was no different. The Edu System here just gives a lot of elbow room, to shift if u want to later on. :)Quote:

It is being used here in the US. My school only started letting us use sci cals in Xams after 9th grade. I would presume that everyone uses them now.Quote:
