Netflix’s next docu-series is the perfect fit for every student out there to binge watch. Titled “Alma Matters: Inside the IIT Dream”, the show will follow the lives of students and explore the insides of the coveted IIT Kharagpur. IIT Kharagpur, without doubt is India’s premier institute for engineering and so many more courses out there.
Ever since the establishment of the institute, it has been a birthplace of many engineers that went on to change the nation and the world too. For many years, the institute was ranked top in the list of engineering colleges and institutes. As of 2020, IIT Kharagpur has ranked in No. 5.
Now, getting into one of the top institutes definitely brings in way more competition. After 12th, many children who wish to get into an IIT, get into coaching, so that they can enhance their skills for the entrance examinations which are termed as one of the toughest to crack.
Till the entrance part, it is a very known and well established fact that one needs to be at their best, but what actually goes on inside after you get in, can only be told by the ones who survive in the madness. The series promises to bring the complete rawness out. That makes it obvious that the competition to survive inside will take the front seat in the docu-series.
The trailer of the Alma Matters that Netflix released shows the rawness and grittiness of the world inside the campus. It is a known fact that to survive in that jungle you need to cut yourself off from the outside world and students happily take that decision because it is the only way of making their dreams come true.
Inside, it is not just a competition of who does well or who secures a job, but it is more of a survival of the fittest. Alma Matters brings you the real life accounts of many such students who have been putting their everything in it and dragging themselves out, just so that they can come out victorious and be top of the chain.
Netflix’s Alma Matters: Inside the IIT Dream, releasing on the 14th of May, gives you the most real and harsh reality accounts of the competition that makes up one of the toughest yet the best institutes in the nation.
