It's funny - I've evidently met too many because my immediate emotional response was "NO THEY AREN'T HAVE YOU ANY IDEA HOW HARD IT IS TO GET INTO AN IIT?????"

It’s confidence relative to capability rather than absolute capability due to vanity metering 🙂
Special case of my meritocracy-is-mediocracy point in another tweet. Also true of Harvard, MIT, Oxbridge etc.
