All NITs are well-reputed institutes that ensure quality education in India. Let us look into the features of NITs in detail.

Daily Life – All the NITs follow the same system, and there is no significant difference between them. The classes begin at 9 a.m. and end at 5 p.m., with a one-hour break in the afternoon. Like other colleges, regular classes are conducted five days a week, and on the weekends, students can take part in extracurricular activities. They also provide decent hostel facilities for the students

Which college should I prefer, VIT Pune or PICT Pune?

ST
Shruti Thakur Posted On : October 16th, 2023
Lives in Pune, Maharashtra, India

Choosing between VIT Pune and PICT Pune depends on the branch you are getting. Based on recent stats of placements and cutoffs, VIT Pune seems to be a better choice than PICT Pune for almost all the branches except Computer Science/IT. So the simple solution is to opt for PICT if you are willing to study CS or IT else go to VIT Pune for other branches.

VIT being an autonomous college has a well-updated curriculum that is better structured than other colleges. It also offers several skill development and professional development courses. It also has an excellent placement scenario and opportunities for higher studies. VIT has a very talented crowd in different activities and skills. It organizes two fests one interdepartmental and one intercollegiate annually.

PICT has an excellent placement scenario for its CS and IT branches. It’s also decent in terms of faculty and academics but not better than VIT. The strict curriculum and heavy workload give little time for students to explore their non-academic interests.

If you prioritize placements and packages more than anything, choose PICT for Comp/IT else VIT, Pune.

Is Maharaja Surajmal Institute better than VIPS for pursuing BCA?

SB
Sushrut Bhalla Posted On : June 24th, 2021
Studied at Vivekananda Institute of Professional Studies

It is difficult to say if Maharaja Surajmal Institute is any better than VIPS for pursuing BCA as both are not very good institutes. Both are affiliated with the Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU) so the curriculum followed is almost similar.

As far as faculty goes, both the institutes are equally bad. For VIPS, the faculty, as well as the administration, is so bad that on average the attendance for any class would be around 50%. Class bunks are pretty common and neither the faculty nor the administration cares about it.

Entrepreneurship is a non-existent word in the directory of both colleges. Startups do not get the required attention or importance which they can say proudly. As far as placements, it is also pretty bad in both the colleges and almost similar.

There are only two reasons for choosing VIPS over MSI –

  • VIPS offers air-conditioned classrooms and campus which is helpful in the hot climate of Delhi.
  • The food stalls outside of VIPS are great and would definitely suit your taste buds during your stay at the college.

Apart from that, there are no real reasons or arguments in favor of either them being superior over the other.

Should IIIT Bangalore be preferred over NITs?

Namrata Das Posted On : October 7th, 2023

Whether IIIT Bangalore should be preferred over NITs depends on many aspects like which NITs you are referring to and the course you are targeting. My sister was a student at IIIT Bangalore and shared her experience of the same. She had joined the MTech course although she had no coding knowledge or background. 

Sharing her experience she claimed that thanks to the well-structured curriculum of the MTech course and the highly experienced professors, her journey was quite smooth. The first year brings everyone from diverse backgrounds on the same page and after the first semester, it all depends on your interest.

Students get placed excellently as long as you have a certain lower cut off. By the end of the course, everyone gets placed decently and there are many big firms that visit for placements. Even if you are from a non-coding background, the college will guide you in every step. 

However, you will have to consider other options if you are looking for a BTech course. Coming to your question, IIIT Bangalore can be compared to the top 3 NITs for M.Tech in CS/IT courses only. So, choose IIIT Bangalore if you are getting lower NITs.

Which college is better, LD or MSU Baroda?

PT
Piya Thakker Posted On : December 22nd, 2021
BE from The Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda (2022)

It depends on the course you are willing to pursue. As one of my friends is an alumni of MSU and also knows about LD, I can help you with the question. 

According to him, if you are willing to study engineering then MSU would be a better choice than LD. The overall academics and curriculum is better at MSU, whereas LD has a somewhat better reputation among industries than MSU. Therefore, placements are better in LD. 

But if you think you can secure a job offer by yourself go for MSU as they will provide you with the proper academic guidance. 

Categories LD Ahmedabad MSU Baroda
Placement Percentage 80% 60%
Highest CTC 10 LPA 8 LPA
Average CTC 4.50 LPA 4-5 LPA
Recruiting Companies Accenture, Wipro, IBM, HCL, etc. L&T, Essar, Infosys, Reliance, etc.

Also if location is your preference then if you are near to Vadodara go for MSU and if you are close to Ahmedabad go for LD.
