There is no discrimination...its prejudice. Discrimination involves having power to affect someone's life. KMCIC teachers really don't. Because its all multiple choices...you get what you pick. Education wise, they can't fail you because they don't like you. If the questions aren't fair, we complain and we do get points. There is, however, prejudice due to cultural differences.

Indians believe that to be successful, you need to have a good education. A good education guarantees a stable income. Where in US, your clothes, style and general personality makes you popular, in India it's acedemic achievement that makes everyone take notice.
Teachers love the students who are willing to learn.
Unless you have a buring desire to be a doctor, you've pretty much lost your motivation being far away from home and all...
Sad to say, NRI premeds who come here just get drunk and don't care about classes. Everything is cheaper and there's no drinking age.
We Indian Americans stand out because we don't give a damn about locals
If the teachers are rude its because they see the NRI girls walking to class like they are off to a club. Honestly, if a doctor came to you wearing jeans, tank top and a bandana, would you trust him/her? they want us to discipline ourselves.
In india, students learn through shame...teachers try to shame you into learning. If you know that the teacher is going to pick on you, you better know the material so he won't...is the general attitude. The teachers try to use the same methods with us.

The physiology professor is the former Dean of KMC with about 40 yrs of experience. He's strict but a dynamic teacher. I remember when i went to see him after having failed a test. I broke down and he was like, "Thats ok, your parents are not here. Think of me as your grandfather."
Even the custodiens look out for me, ask me about my classes and wish me luck everytime I go into the exam hall...
They even try to teach me the local language! Although I think they just laugh at my accent.

The teachers scold you, yell at you, shame you, and at the same time care about you. My anatomy teacher made me come to his office every day and quizzed me on neuro a week before the final because I was soo nervous!
In the end, you need to remember than you're here to SIEZE an education not GET it...you TAKE your education no matter what the attitude of the teacher is.

Sorry for that lengthy reply...I got carried away.
