Just like everyone else, in other words.
Very true. There did however seem to be a lot of Indian students entering Masters Degree programs that were considerably below the average.
It probably had a lot to do with the University admitting a lot of students that they should have forced to take some additional undergraduate courses first, but there were very large number of Indian first year graduate students, but not even close to the same percentage at upper levels.
I think their high school continued on to what the admissions department was considering a bachelor's degree, so them going to grad school was similar to American's going off to college. So there was a lot that weren't prepared to do the work and dropped out, just like there are a lot of American freshmen that did the same.
However, it resulted in a lot of other students having a low opinion of the Indian students in general, especially if they got stuck doing group projects with them.
