Ques. Why is the cutoff for computer science in Thapar lower than that of NIT Jalandhar?

● Top Answer By Ayush Agarwal on 03 Dec 22

Ans. The cutoff for computer science in Thapar has seen a fall in figures. This is because of the decrease in the fame of this college. There are so many better and popular institutes that people usually don’t consider Thapar as their first choice. Even big companies prefer students from IITs, BITS or DTU. Students themselves opt for IIT because of its tag. They know the IIT tag will always be a boon for them. The general decrease in its popularity has resulted in lower cutoffs and the situation seems to be worsening over the years to come.Read more

Ques. Which is the better college between Deen Dayal Upadhyaya College and ARSD College for a B.Sc. in Computer Science (Hons), mainly in terms of faculty and course-related infrastructure such as computer

● Top Answer By Praniti Arora on 26 Nov 21

Ans. It may not be right to compare the colleges under DU among each other. As most of them have similar curriculum and teaching techniques. But if infrastructure is considered Deen Dayal Upadhyaya College (DDUC) is far better than other colleges under DU. As it is a newly established institution, the facilities provided are upgraded with the latest technology.  They also are known to have a very highly experienced faculty, some of them even having 20-30 years of teaching experience. DDUC is popular for its Science and Commerce streams. Therefore if you wish to choose among DDUC and ARSD College for an Honours degree in Computer Science, it is suggested that you go for the former rather than the latter.Read more

Ques. Which course is better, an MSc. in finance from Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management, Mumbai, or NMIMS, Mumbai or MSc. in financial engineering from IFMR, Chennai?

● Top Answer By Apoorva Katnik on 14 Mar 23

Ans.  If you are considering pursuing a Master of Science (M Sc) degree from NMIMS, it is important to do some further research on the recognition of the degree. However, an MBA from their Mumbai campus can be a good option to consider. On the other hand, IFMR offers only MBA and Ph.D. programs, so it is not possible to pursue an M.Sc from there. As for JBIMS, it is the most prestigious institution in Mumbai, but there have been some concerns raised about the accuracy of their placement salary data. Additionally, the selection process for their M Sc course is quite competitive, with only 30 seats available for the program and a large number of candidates competing for those spots. Considering your interest in finance, it would be beneficial to aim for admission to a top-notch business school like XLRI, which is renowned for its finance program. Another option would be to gain experience in the industry and pursue a finance course such as CFA or FRM, which would make you eligible for admission to world-renowned business schools such as the Indian School of Business.Read more

Ques. What should I choose for a BSc in CS, Holkar Science College or Medicaps University?

● Top Answer By Khushi Khandelwal on 19 Jul 21

Ans. The choice between Holkar Science and Medicaps University for a B.Sc. in Computer Science is difficult, but it can be made efficiently if your motivation and future plans are clear. To put it simply, if you want to work in the government sector and B.Sc. is just a requirement for graduation, Holkar is the place for you. I'm not blaming its quality, but you'll undoubtedly get a better atmosphere for government sector job preparation. On the other hand, if you want your B.Sc. CS to be more practical and fruitful, consider doing it at Medi-Caps because, as a technical institute, it will certainly deal with more practical aspects.

In the end, it all depends upon your career choice. So think precisely and then make the decision.Read more
