Which should I choose SMS Jaipur or AIIMS Jodhpur? Why?

Muskan Shafi Posted On : April 1st, 2024

AIIMS Jodhpur and SMS Jaipur are two very prominent medical colleges in Rajasthan. SMS Medical College is one of the oldest medical colleges in India, while AIIMS Jodhpur is a comparatively newer institute established in 2012. Keeping all the aspects such as rankings, infrastructure, faculty, hostels, and facilities into consideration, AIIMS Jodhpur is a better choice when compared to SMS Jaipur

  • Ranking & Reputation: AIIMS Jodhpur is an Institute of National Importance and is centrally funded by the government. It is the second-best ranked AIIMS in India after AIIMS Delhi, ranked 13th in India as per NIRF 2023. SMS Jaipur is however ranked 46th in India by NIRF 2023 in Medicine. 
  • Campus & Infrastructure: AIIMS Jodhpur has a huge campus with a well-built infrastructure with modern technology and devices. The institute offers all major facilities on campus such as hostels, sports complex, gym, central mess, etc. AIIMS Jodhpur has well-built and maintained hostels which is not the case in most medical colleges.
  • Research Opportunities & Clinical Exposure: The institute is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities for medical research with access to advanced medical equipment. AIIMS Jodhpur also offers one of the best clinical exposure to its students. 
  • Campus Life & Events: AIIMS Jodhpur has a vibrant campus life with opportunities for a lot of extracurricular activities and events. AURA, the intercollege fest of AIIMS Jodhpur, is one of the biggest and most awaited medical fest in India every year.
  • Fees: The fee for MBBS and PG courses at AIIMS Jodhpur is negligible. AIIMS Jodhpur MBBS fee is around INR 5,856 for the entire course which is literally much less in comparison to SMS Medical College which is around INR 50K per year. 
  • Internship Stipend: The stipend that students get during the internship at AIIMS Jodhpur is far more than the state medical colleges like SMS Jaipur. 

SMS Jaipur is also a very good institute with a legacy attached to it, however, the institute has a comparatively old infrastructure and fewer facilities and exposure than AIIMS Jodhpur. The batch size at SMS Jaipur is also big, i.e. around 250 students in each batch. The fee is also very high in comparison to AIIMS Jodhpur. Thus, AIIMS Jodhpur is a comparatively better institute than SMS Jaipur keeping in consideration all the points.

Although both institutes offer a fairly good CSE program, Thapar University seems to give a little edge to BIT Mesra in terms of research culture and opportunities.

  1. Thapar is an excellent choice for research enthusiasts as it has excellent research facilities, projects, and professors that encourage research work passionately
  2. Thapar University has one of the best campuses among the private engineering colleges thereby offering a dynamic campus life.
  3. Thapar University students organize amazing events at a huge level. It conducts India's biggest Food Festival, one of the biggest Techno-cultural festivals, and one of the best Sports festivals in the country.

What should I take: BSD in IIIT Hyderabad or CSE in IIIT-Vadodara?

AS
Ayan Sharma Posted On : July 2nd, 2021
CSE, IIIT Vadodara (2018)

If you are very interested in computer science and want to do something innovative in this field, you should attend IIIT-Vadodara. However, it may have its own set of advantages and disadvantages.

But if you are still confused about choosing CSE, you should consider civil engineering as it comes with great career opportunities.

Electrical, Mechanical, and Civil Engineering are core branches. It is always better to go for a core branch if you are not particularly interested in a specific branch. The placements for core branches are not ideal, and this is a well-known fact. However, these core branches are very durable, everlasting, and opportunistic fields, and they will continue to thrive as long as industries are thriving in India.

IIIT Vadodara is a new institute and the problem with newer institutes is that they aren't yet established, at least not up to the level of their tag. Some issues may include like small alumni network, faculty issues, fewer opportunities, and a lack of motivation.

According to the recent placement statistics, the highest and average CTC for IIIT Vadodara was 43 LPA and 13 LPA. While for IIIT Hyderabad the highest and average was 24 LPA and 85 LPA.

Considering the above factors I will say go for IIIT H BSD. It is definitely the better alternative.

How good is placement at ISB, Hyderabad compared to IIMs (since number of students are much more in ISB, leading to tough competition)?

KA
Kumar Anshul Posted On : January 30th, 2023
PGP from Indian School of Business (2023)

When comparing the placements of the two, ISB and IIMs, the batch size hardly matters because both institutes market different products. The background and profiles of students of both institutes are too versatile to draw comparisons. If I roughly divide the ISB students and the kind of placement scenario they face then

  • 90% of students get their dream jobs in the desired sector and company 
  • 10% of the students get jobs that are below their expectations but not worse enough to forgo the offers

So the batch size does not matter here and ISB Hyderabad placements are themselves quite satisfactory.

Which is better, metallurgy at NIT Warangal or an MSc in Biology at BITS Goa?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : August 16th, 2023

Both Metallurgy at NIT Warangal and MSc in Biology at BITS Goa are great programs offering a plethora of opportunities and exposure to its students. But the choice between the two is a very personal matter as both the branches are very diverse in the opportunities they offer. So

  • Go for NIT Warangal if you are interested in Metallurgy
  • Go for BITS Goa if you are ready to Study Biology along with BE Degree.

However, you need to bear in mind the fact that BITS Goa is expensive and the fees is very high around 25 lakhs while NIT Warangal's total fees are less than 10 Lakhs.

Is IIEST Shibpur better than NIT Trichy?

TH
Tilottama Hazra Posted On : February 23rd, 2021
B.Tech-M.Tech Dual Degree Electrical Engineering, IIEST, Shibpur (2020)

IIEST Shibpur might have the edge over NIT Trichy in terms of research. However, the same cannot be said with certainty in terms of academics. In case of academics, NIT Trichy may be ahead of IIEST Shibpur.

In terms of placements, NIT Trichy is way ahead of IIEST Shibpur. It also gets the upper hand in case of the students. As the research in NIT Trichy is superior compared to IIEST Shibpur, the faculty of the former is also superior to the latter.

However, IIEST Shibpur is often ranked in magazines like Outlook, Mint, EduRand owing to its research and other collaborations. BESU, even being a state government institute, was facing problems in its funding. After its conversion to IIEST, things took a turn for the better. It is the second oldest institute for engineering in the country and the alumni are also pretty renowned. In terms of infrastructure as well, NIT Trichy has the upper hand over IIEST Shibpur.

Which is the better branch between mechanical engineering and chemical engineering in MNNIT Allahabad?

SA
Shibu Ahuja Posted On : November 28th, 2023
Studied at Motilal Nehru National Institute of Technology, Allahabad

I am a student of B.Tech Chemical at MNNIT Allahabad. Here is some information to help you arrive at a conclusion-

  • Placements- Chemical has better placements. Its batch strength is almost one third that of Mechanical. Moreover, a good number of companies visit the Chemical department with job offers. The average package for Chemical and Mechanical is 10 LPA and 7 LPA respectively. In recent years, the Chemical department has attained 100% placements, while Mechanical receives around 80% placements.
  • ESE- For Engineering Services (IES), you’ll have to choose Mechanical Engineering as Chemical students can not give ESE.
  • GATE- Both Chemical and Mechanical are equally good for public sector jobs/ M.Tech/ Phd. The competition is much higher in Mechanical, but the number of vacancies in PSUs through GATE is also higher for it. 

The GATE syllabus for Chemical is comparatively smaller.

  • ISRO/ BARC/ DRDO- Both the branches carry equal opportunities in these areas.
  • PSU through campus- Branch toppers are selected by PSUs for placements. The selections are made on resume based shortlisting, GD and interview. Companies like BPCL, GAIL and IOCL visit the campus for recruitments. Sometimes GAIL does not allow Mechanical students to sit for placements. Thus, Chemical students have better chances of placement in PSUs. The smaller batch strength of Chemical is a big aid in placements. 

Both the branches are good in their own way. You should select the one that suits your goals and future plans.

Which is better, NIT Silchar or NIT Raipur?

A
Admin Posted On : August 24th, 2023

In my opinion, NIT Silchar is way better than NIT Raipur. Earlier, the institute faced connectivity issues and therefore wasn't a much preferable choice but the recent developments have solved the issue. NIT Silchar spreads across a whooping 624 acres and has a rich collection of flora and fauna. The institute is known for its numerous lakes, top-notch infrastructure, and excellent net connectivity. 

The faculty pool is a mixed bag with both good and bad professors. The seniors are people you can look to and seek help anytime. The research culture is slowly improving although NNITs in general don't have much reputation in research. NIT Silchar has the biggest digital library.

Coming to The placement scenario, it's very promising, especially for the CSE and ECE branches. NIT Silchar placements 2022 recorded 94+ recruiters and offers from Amazon, Microsoft, Adobe, Arcesium, Intuit, etc. Students received 537 offers in all and the highest salary recorded was INR 44 LPA which was offered by Amazon. The average package stood at INR 13.58 LPA.

I don't mean to undermine NIT Raipur in fact its Metallurgy branch is one of the best. But as a whole, NIT Silchar seems to be a more favorable option for you.
