How many people in your class ?

[Low intellectual level, low global relevance]

In August 2006:
I've joined the CSE discipline in the ME program in the CSA department.
A: ~25 others have joined the same.
B: ~25 people have joined the ISE discipline in the ME program in the CSA department.
C: ~10 people joined for the MSc program in the CSA department.
D: ~10 people joined for the PhD program in the CSA department.

Similarly in August 2005:
E: ~25 people have joined the CSE discipline in the ME program in the CSA department.
F: ~25 people have joined the ISE discipline in the ME program in the CSA department.
G: ~10 people joined for the MSc program in the CSA department.
H: ~10 people joined for the PhD program in the CSA department.

I: MTech / PhD program students of the SERC department* joined whenever.
J: ?/PhD students of departments such as Mathematics, Electrical, etc. joined whenever.

I have taken 4 courses:
Computer Architecture: Strength - ~17 from ABCDEFHI
Discrete Structures: Strength - ~50 from ABCDEFGHI
Cryptography: Strength - ~20 from ABDJ
Database Management Systems: Strength - ~26 from ABCEFI

I would think that each of my courses could have been taken up by all of ABCDEFGHIJ and these current assignments you see above are only a fluke / co-incidence.


Note: All figures are estimates. The "from ..." are all guesses. Also, students from the August 2004 and previous batches, CSA department (mostly PhD students) maybe thought of to be in H or J. Students of SSA discipline of the ME program of the CSA+EE department maybe also considered in J.

Pardon the non-properness of abbreviations - For example, ME instead of M. E. - done for brevity.


* SERC isn't exactly a department, but we'll let that be.

Your class has low intellectual value and low global relevance?
