1. Reputation is subjective. You get crappy universities in the US as well. What’s wrong with IIT? Nothing.
2. Creativity is not a result of courses. Courses don’t make one creative.
3. Money is more here in the US, but it is not an infinite resource. Not all students are funded. Funding is lower now with the recent economic problems.
4. This statement “The student are given lot of freedom to pursue his chosen subject with lots of support from the professors.” is so flawed. Unless a student obtains a fellowship, there’s no freedom. Many of profesors’ funding come from sources that require specific deliverables – a student got to work in that specific area.
5. Top of the world? Whatever man. Apply and get admissions first.
6. Competitive? It is competitive everywhere dude.
7. Freedom to change? Sure, you’ll get your funding cut, and you will have to spend more money changing visas, etc.
8 to 12 – May or may not be true.
In summary, stop thinking too highly about something you don’t know.
