It's that time of the year when young students in thousands descend towards universities with their mark sheets in search of college education. With cut offs shooting through the roof, we ask whether marks do actually ensure success in life? Is our education system warped? Do parents also play a crucial role in increasing the pressure on students? Finally, can there be a 'cut off' for finding one's true calling in life? For all this and more, watch this episode of The Big Fight with Dr Annie Koshi, Principal, St. Mary's School; Prof. Dinesh Singh, Former Vice Chancellor, Delhi University; Vineet Gupta, Founder and Trustee Ashoka University; Sanil Sachar Author; Suhel Seth, Managing Partner, Counselage; Biswapati Sarkar, Executive Creative Director, The Viral Fever and Ms. Anu Aga, Chairperson, Thermax Foundation.
