How do we calculate Anna University's GPA and CGPA if we have arrears?

SG
Shradhha Gupta Posted On : December 3rd, 2022
B.E Electronics and Communication Engineering & Learning French, Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India

The CGPA and GPA are based solely on the subjects you have completed. If you fail seven out of eight subjects in a semester but receive an "S" on the one you did pass, for instance, you will have a GPA of 10 for that semester. Your GPA and CGPA are updated as you pass each of the courses you failed.

Ignore the subjects you failed; instead, focus on the credits for the ones you passed; multiply those credits by the grade you obtained, and continue adding the values for all the subjects you passed. Divide this figure by the total number of credits earned in the subjects you've completed. This will calculate your GPA. Because the credits for each semester are not the same, you must perform this calculation for all subjects beginning with your first semester to determine your CGPA.

Should I choose NSIT COE or IIT Delhi Civil?

A
Admin Posted On : July 9th, 2024

I am a Civil Engineering student at IIT Delhi. 

Even though CoE/ CSE/ IT are much more sought after by students in the present times, I would choose Civil at IIT Delhi over CoE at NSUT. 

Here are the reasons for the same:

  • The faculty at IIT Delhi is much more experienced and learned than that at NSUT.
  • IIT Delhi was established in 1961, while NSUT in 1983. Because of this, IIT Delhi has a stronger alumni network.
  • IIT Delhi is a globally recognized brand, while NSUT is usually only known to students of North India. The “IIT” brand is immensely helpful when applying to foreign universities for higher studies. 
  • Although civil freshers are rarely in demand, a civil engineer with enough work experience, the right set of skills, and great project accomplishments is paid a high salary.

These are the 2023 placement figures for both these institutions:

Particulars

IIT DELHI 

NSUT 

Median CTC

-

 

INR 17 LPA (B.Tech)

Average CTC

INR 17.60 LPA (Overall)

 

-

% Batch placed

84.94% (Overall)

 

(Students Placed in B.Tech: 977)

Top Recruiters

 

Google, Deloitte, BCG, HCL Technologies, Lenskart, Flipkart, etc. 

 

(2024)

Unfortunately, the branch-wise placement detail is not available for both these institutes.   

However, based on the various reasons listed above, I would recommend you choose IIT Delhi Civil Engineering over NSUT CoE.

How is cse in MANIT Bhopal?

PS
Parveen Sindhu Posted On : November 24th, 2023
Studied at Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology, Bhopal

Some of my colleagues have completed their B.Tech CSE from MANIT Bhopal. 

Here are the key points based on their experience-

  1. MANIT CSE has the same placement records as CSE at top NITs and IITs. Try to make the most out of the opportunities provided to you.
  2. The seniors at the CSE department are very helpful.
  3. An important tip for you is to not indulge in any kind of quarrel with the locals. They do not allow the MANIT students to roam around or perform any kind of mischief outside of the college campus.
  4. The campus is quite huge, and cycling is the best way to move back and forth between the hostel and the classrooms.
  5. The CSE professors impart useful knowledge, so attend their classes regularly .
  6. In order to ace the placements, start competitive programming from semester 2 itself. 

Make the most of your stay at MANIT Bhopal and study hard from the first year itself. If you do this, you’ll find CSE at MANIT to be quite good.

Is it really difficult to get into PhD economics programs of universities like DSE, ISI or JNU with an M.A. Economics degree from IGNOU?

AK
Aarushi Kumar Posted On : November 3rd, 2022
Educator/Facilitator at Government of India

PhD or research is all about finding out new concepts. Thus we provide a deeper in already existing knowledge. PhD in Social Science is very much different from that of pure sciences, yet the goal is the same. As you know for doing research/PhD at the university level, the qualification required is PG degree. Every university has different criteria for selecting candidates.

As you know DSE, JNU, ISI, IEW, IIPA, and IIMs are the prime institutions for teaching, learning and researching in economics, management and public administration.

If you are willing to get into one of these institutions, a Master’s from IGNOU will have the same value as that from any other university. To get selected into these prestigious institutions, you will have to pass through a rigorous selection process of

  • Entrance

  • Group discussion 

  • Personal interview 

Moreover you will have to provide testimonials from your professors about your academic developments.

Should I join IIT Kharagpur for B.arch?

SG
Senjuti Gupta Posted On : March 23rd, 2023
studied at IIT Kgp

There are two aspects to the question. You asked.

  • Is the bachelor of architecture course at IIT Kharagpur good?

To answer this part, I will say with certainty that IIT Kharagpur is an excellent institute. However, as far as architecture is concerned, your first choice should always be the elite schools of architecture like SPA or CEPT. This is mainly because IITs are known for their technology and not architecture.

  • Should a person who's only interested in physics and math, go for architecture or not?

If you are genuinely interested in physics and math, then this will be one of your strengths and will prove to be useful in the journey of architecture.

Architecture requires problem-solving skills apart from artistic skills. There are many students who are average in drawing but have excellent ideas and designs. To broaden your knowledge about art and architecture you can read books.

How is MNIT Jaipur for an MBA?

SG
Souvick Gupta Posted On : October 10th, 2023
MNIT Jaipur

Even though I am not an MBA student at MNIT Jaipur, I will try to answer your query.

I have completed three years as a B.Tech student at MNIT. Throughout this time, I never heard much about the MBA program of my college. If its placements were noticeable, we would have definitely heard about them. I have rarely come across MBA students on campus. Unlike MBA, the M.Tech and Phd. courses are well renowned. 

MNIT is known for its engineering programs. So, I wouldn’t recommend this college for your management studies. Try to look for those colleges that are known for their management courses.

For how many years are the GATE scores or GATE ranks valid?

PG
Pratik Gandhi Posted On : March 24th, 2023
B.Tech. CSE, IIT Bombay

The validity of GATE scores or GATE ranks varies depending on the purpose for which they are being used. Here are the different scenarios:

  • GATE score for M.Tech/M.E./Ph.D. admissions: GATE scores are valid for three years from the date of announcement of results.
  • GATE score for PSU recruitments: Generally, most Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs) accept GATE scores that are not older than three years. However, this may vary from PSU to PSU, so candidates are advised to check the respective PSU's recruitment notification for the exact validity period.
  • GATE score for Junior Research Fellowship (JRF) and Senior Research Fellowship (SRF): GATE scores are valid for up to three years from the date of announcement of results for JRF/SRF.

It is important to note that GATE scores and GATE ranks are two different things. While GATE scores are used for admissions and recruitment purposes, GATE ranks are used for determining the eligibility for scholarships and fellowships offered by the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), Government of India. The validity of GATE ranks is also three years from the date of announcement of results.

What is the difference between a grant non grant course at Fergusson College Pune Does it affect the future of a degree Are classes held differently and teaching staff different?

SD
Shruti Desai Posted On : September 30th, 2021
Studied at Fergusson College,Pune (2020)

I can tell you my friend’s experience as a non-grant BA student. The fee structure is usually high for Non-Grant. It is so because the faculty are paid from the students' fees and not from the government fund.

The teachers are temporarily hired who often lack proper experience. You will also be not given a choice to select the subjects and will study 6 compulsory subjects. This is a huge setback as you have to study it even though you lack interest in any particular subject. 

One of the positive things about the Non-grant course is that lectures are continuous and end at 10:50 AM. After that, you will be free for the rest of the day. On the other hand, students admitted to Grant courses have to stay in college longer. 

Due to a small batch in non-grant courses, there are good chances of getting the preferred major in 2nd-year. It is so because the seats for grant and non-grant are equal.

There is a more diverse crowd in non-grant courses and you will find students from all over the country.

How is MANIT Bhopal for MCA?

SB
Shivani Bansal Posted On : November 8th, 2023
Studied at Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology, Bhopal

As a student of MCA at MANIT Bhopal, here is my experience of this college-

From the point of view of an MCA student, this college has nothing special to offer. It is just a normal college. The classes and labs are decent, and the faculty is average. Only a few of the teachers are worthy of admiration. Do not expect much from the faculty.

The hostel facilities aren’t top notch for boys. However, a hostel has been functioning exclusively for PG boys since 2019. For girls, the hostel facilities are decent. There is a lack of friendly interactions among students for different courses. 

The placements are decent for MCA. With average technical, and excellent communication skills, you’ll get an offer for sure. But to get placed, you must have secured 60-65% in your 10th, 12th, UG and PG. If you do not fulfill this requirement, your possibility of getting placed will be very low.

Bhopal is very beautiful and enchanting. You’ll learn a lot at MANIT, and these experiences will help you throughout your life.
