How was your first day at NIT Surat? (SVNIT)?

AS
Amit Sharma Posted On : May 14th, 2021
Studied at NIT Surat

A friend of mine studies there at NIT Surat, here’s a snippet from his first day at the institute. 

  • He was already familiar with the room as he visited the hostel on the day he went to the campus for admission. After setting up the room he contacted a senior to know what to do next. 
  • His senior advised him to buy a bicycle as it’s quite a walk from the hostel compound to the classroom complex. 
  • After a few hours, he went to the mess with his friends from school who also took admission at the institute and was staying in the hostel. Despite the reputation of mess food at any given educational institute, my friend vouches for the food at NIT Surat. 

When they came back from the mess, the light was out. They spend their first night in the dark. The power cut continued till the next morning.

What can be done to crack the JEE (Advanced) and get into IIT-Bombay?

SB
Sumit Bose Posted On : March 18th, 2023
IIT Bombay (2019)

Don’t be fixed upon a certain agenda and keep your options open. If you will restrict yourself in such a way you might limit your options as well as the capacity to give your best.

Instead, I suggest that you try to analyze why exactly you want to pursue Engineering. Is it because of the sheep mentality or do you really want to build things?

Once you are sure, then figure out how exactly you will be achieving this goal. Set achievable goals for yourself and work sincerely on fulfilling them. Reward yourself for very little achievement on the way. This will gradually increase your confidence and pave the way to achieve much more.

However, a very important thing is to dream but not demand. That is you should be passionate about a certain thing but not fixated on it too much to the extent that if you fail to achieve it, you lose much more. So you can desire to pursue BTech in CSE at IIT Bombay but leave room for other options as well. 

Don’t stress yourself out too much and just concentrate on the present, your future will be visible sooner or later.

How good is the curriculum of M.Tech C.S. in ISI kolkata?

SM
Sayandeep Mukharjee Posted On : June 22nd, 2022
M.Tech Computer Science, Indian Statistical Institute

M.Tech CS at ISI Kolkata isn’t just for CSE graduates. The student crowd includes students from all engineering streams. So, in the first year, ISI encourages students from non-CSE backgrounds to learn coding and study computer science courses. While CSE students are encouraged to take Mathematics courses such as Algebra, or Probability. 

Second year course curriculum can seem a little boring for students with CS background. As the major chunk of the curriculum includes Algorithms, Networking, DBMS, etc. But you should use this opportunity to brush up on these subjects. You will also have the option to do research work, during the course tenure. Pursuing a research project can be really helpful if you are interested in doing a Ph.D. or an internship afterward. 

In the second year, you will be allowed to choose a course of your choice. Try to take a subject that is relevant to your thesis work. The coursework in the third year can get extremely hectic, you will have to work on your thesis, start preparing for placement or PhD, and work on five subjects.

Which is a better option: CSE at IIIT Hyderabad or CSE at top NITs like Warangal, Trichy, and MNNIT?

A
Admin Posted On : May 31st, 2024

CSE at top NITs is a far better option. Among the NITS, I would suggest you choose NIT Trichy. The CSE department of NIT Trichy is better than other NITs. The department is old and the curriculum is at par with the top IITs. The faculty is experienced and will guide you throughout the four years of your college. You will get hands-on learning because of the multiple practical projects that are given to the students. The campus of NIT Trichy is just as amazing. You will have hostel facilities as well. Each year the top companies visit our college to recruit the students. The CSE department is one of the departments that get the highest packages. Last year the average package in the CSE departments was 27.27 LPA.

How many subjects do we have to choose in BA for IGNOU?

AP
Ajay Pandey Posted On : October 17th, 2022
B.A Political Science & pub ad from Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU)

A student should take no more than 96 credits in BA (applicable for every subject).

To obtain a major in any subject, a student must have a total of 48 credits in that subject, which equates to 6 papers of 8 credits taken over three years. (2 papers per year)

The remaining 48 credits are divided as follows:

  • In the first and second years, compulsory papers BSHF 101 and FST 01, each worth 8 credits.

  • Students in their second year are required to take one elective course in addition to the compulsory course and the subject in which they are majoring.

  • Applied Courses are for third-year students, and they can be taken for 8 or 16 credits.

  • Students may take any subject from Group 1 to Group A1 in addition to Group A1.

As a result, the number of subjects taken each year is determined by the number of credits a student takes. If a 4-credit subject is chosen, the student should take two 4-credit papers for a total of 8 credits, increasing the number of papers.
