What about AC in BITS Pilani hostel?
No, it’s prohibited to install ACs or even coolers in BITS Pilani hostels. There are 2 main reasons for this. Firstly ACs will cost very much and the electricity bills will be high. Secondly, it will be very difficult to provide ACs for around 3000 students inside the campus.
Honestly, you will get used to the heat after the initial struggle and will not even find the lack of ACs a big issue.

Is NTTF good for studying?
According to some of my friends studying there, NTTF is the best for technical courses. Here are some things I got to know from them:
- It offers various programs like diplomas, post-graduation, certifications, and post-graduate diplomas.
- NTTF is an excellent place to study technical courses. It is ranked first in the world for Tie and Dies Making courses.
- However, getting admission is a difficult task in this course and is taxing for students.
- The placement percentage of the institute is 99.2%.
- Almost all the alumni are working around the world in top industries.
| Categories | NTTF |
| Highest CTC | 6-8 LPA |
| Average CTC | 4 LPA |
| Recruiting Companies | Lohia Corp., Gainwell Commosales, Schneider Electric, Timken Limited, etc. |
The job scope is scarce for this course in India as the tooling industry is unorganized. Therefore, the foreign placements are better than in-country. Overall, the institute is worthy enough for an interested student.
How were Yash Srivastava and Harsh Srivastava, brothers from NIT Raipur able to bag offer of 75 LPA?
Yash Srivastava and his brother, Harsh Srivastava from NIT Raipur were definitely able to bag the tremendous offer of 75 LPA because they had been working hard. If you heard of Codechef, there’s a possibility that you may have heard about them.
They were in the top 2 positions for coding in the institute during their time, at the institute. Other students used to fight for the 3rd spot. That’s because they were the best in coding. They have worked hard to learn algorithms with the help of the internet.
I have a friend who was in the same batch with them. According to him, they used to solve coding problems every day.
I don’t know much about their interview but they loved to do coding.
How are NSIT placements this year?
The NSIT placements statistics are decent but yet not at or with DTU and IIIT Delhi. Although a large number of companies visit the campus for placements, the average and median CTC is quite low. It is still considered the best option for CS/Circuit branches but the batch size has been increasing alarmingly so the quality might be compromised.

MHRD ranks colleges on the basis of various aspects besides academics. One of them is infrastructure. Unfortunately, NIT Calicut has a poor infrastructure in comparison to other engineering colleges.
