Which one is better for CSE: IIT Patna, IIT Mandi, IIT Jodhpur, IIT Bhubaneswar or IIT(ISM), Dhanbad?

Sayantani Barman Posted On : August 2nd, 2023

I am a CSE student at IIT Patna and I will try to justify why choosing IIT Patna for your

CSE is a good decision. Don’t base your choice on how old an institution is. 

All the new IITs like IIT Patna or IIT Jodhpur are doing exceptionally well, some are even competing against the old IITs. IIT Patna has a great campus and it has achieved tremendous success in a short span of time. 

CSE department has a learned and supportive faculty and great seniors. The teams have always performed exceptionally well in the ACM-ICPC and have even made it to the world finals. A good number of students clear the  GSoC( Google Summer of Code). 

NJACK club organizes tutorial classes and workshops on Web development, App development, Android, etc. It also organizes competitions like Capture the Flag, NWoC-an open source coding event, and other competitions throughout the year.

Other interdisciplinary teams which you can join are ROBOCON, Supra BAJA, HPVC etc. 

CSE alums at IIT Patna have made successful startups and others are working in good positions at top MNCs. Overall, the coding culture over here is excellent.

The placements for the CSE department are quite impressive. For 2023 placements, the highest package stood at INR 82.05 LPA. The average package stood at INR 35.57 LPA and the median package stood at INR 32.85 LPA. 98.65% of students from the CSE branch were placed.

In the end, whether you choose IIT Jodhpur, IIT Mandi, IIT Patna, or any other institution, the choice should be based on your personal preference. However, I would suggest you choose IIT Patna CSE as I am quite satisfied with my choice.

Everyone has different interview experiences. Usually, IIM interviews take around 15-20 mins. At first, there’s usually an introduction round. Students are asked to talk about themselves.

Should I join IIM Calcutta or IIM Kozhikode? I am an average student who somehow managed to do well in the CAT and convert both of these but want a fair shot at being in the better half of the batch

JJ
Jitha Johni Posted On : November 11th, 2022
Studied at Indian Institute of Management Kozhikode (Graduated 2020)

Both IIM Calcutta and IIM Kozhikode are top-notch management institutes in India. The majority of people claim that IIMC is better than IIMK just because it has a strong alumni connection and extremely experienced faculty.

But don’t make your decision solely based on this. Keep your aim in mind before deciding.

Choose IIM Calcutta if-

  • You want your personality to be developed to the maximum extent

  • You have a knack for Maths and Analytical Skills Development 

Choose IIM Kozhikode if-

  • You want to be in the top 1% of the class

  • You prefer an institute with less dynamism 

  • If you are average at Maths and Analytical Skills Development 

The final decision is yours to make.

What are some must experience classes at NIT Trichy?

JY
Joydev R. Yadav Posted On : September 6th, 2021
B.Tech Civil Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India (2019)

One of my juniors is a recent sophomore at the institute and can update you more thoroughly than usual. Here are some things he mentioned,

  • Lately, he has interacted with 40% of the total faculty of NIT Trichy and has visited multiple classes. 
  • He mentions that the production lab of the institute unfortunately does not use the entirety of its equipment.
  • Despite the presence of several types of machinery, students are mandated to use hacksaws for steel cutting. 
  • The current scenario is more futile than what could be anticipated. 
  • Moreover, as per what my friend mentions, the lab assistants are not permitted to use the machines.
  • However, the OJAS building, where most of the chemistry and physics labs are located, works comparably better. 
  • He mentions that his experience was decent.

This is an overall justification of his experience as a whole. There is more to fill the space, yet just only needs exploration. Hope this helps answer your questions.

Which gives the best network in Vasavi Engineering college?

AP
Ashrita Pathak Posted On : August 18th, 2021
B.E from Vasavi College of Engineering (2020)

Some of my friends are from Vasavi Engineering College. According to them, there are different parameters to decide which among all the mobile networks work best. Here is a brief overview of what I have learned from them:

  • In the CV Raman Block, which is for the Mechanical department, mobile networks like Airtel, Idea, and Vodafone work better than most others. 
  • Networks like Airtel, Jio, and Idea seamlessly provide the best speed around these two places. 
  • When coming down to the Mechanical and Civil labs, networks like Jio, Idea, and Airtel work the best.
  • Airtel, however, is considered to provide the best network speed in the Ramanujan block, where the CSE and IT blocks are situated.
  • For both the first-year students and the Civil block in the Vishveshwarya area, Airtel works best by all means. Idea and Jio can be considered second in this list.
  • In the JC Bose block, established rather for the EEE and ECE block, Airtel and Idea do work reasonably well.

These are some of the facts I got to know from my friends studying there.

What are some cons of AIIMS Rishikesh as I have heard only positive reviews?

Muskan Shafi Posted On : April 2nd, 2024

AIIMS Rishikesh is one of the renowned medical institutions located in Uttarakhand. Although, the facilities and faculty at AIIMS Rishikesh are excellent. It may have some cons as well.

Lack of Nightlife: Rishikesh is a small city in the northern state of Uttarakhand in India and is not a metropolitan city. The city is the yoga capital of India and the city sleeps early. Students might not have happening nightlife at AIIMS Rishikesh. 

Exam Pattern: AlIMS Rishikesh is one of the institutions to follow a 100% MCQ exam pattern. Although, the exam pattern seems easy and aids students in preparing for their entrance exam. Students might not get a chance how to articulate answers, and presentations and structure the answers as they do in traditional exams. This might be disadvantageous for students wanting to pursue research in their higher education. With Practice and Consistency, students can overcome any difficulties. 

The potential cons of AIIMS Rishikesh are based on individual preferences and choices. It is always better to know the pros and cons before choosing any institution. It is advised for students to consider their preferences before making any decision.

Why is CSE at NSIT considered better than CSE at DTU?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : July 3rd, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

There are many reasons why some students prefer CSE at NSIT to CSE at DTU. I have listed some strong reasons below:

  • NSIT has a smaller batch size which in turn means the level of competition faced by the students is comparatively low. You can get good job profiles way more easily than at an institute with a higher intake like DTU.
  • NSIT awards you a degree from DU, one of the most globally recognized and reputed universities. This helps you pursue higher studies in foreign countries easily. 
  • Quite a few NSIT students are able to secure high packages in top companies like Facebook while DTU because of its large batch size has only a few that get 1 cr+ packages.
  • One of the major reasons why someone would prefer NSIT over DTU is that it’s quite difficult to get a hostel in DTU especially if you are a resident of Delhi.

If you consider these reasons valid, go for NSIT instead of DTU.

Is Kerala technological university better than CUSAT?

UM
Udit Mundra Posted On : March 23rd, 2021
B.Tech from Cochin University Of Science and Technology (2011)

In my opinion, CUSAT is much better than KTU and there are multiple reasons why. One of the only reasons why KTU could be better than CUSAT is the fact that results are released within a month of conducting exams. So if you have deadlines coming up or are applying somewhere, you will not have to wait too long. CUSAT does not follow this scheme. Although recently, they have changed this scheme.

Additionally, the choice between these two colleges will heavily depend on the branch you are planning on applying to. As you know, every place will have its own pros and cons. The points below should probably help you gain some insight:

  • KTU and CUSAT are state universities. Moreover, they are both UGC and AICTE approved institutes. A plus point with CUSAT is that it has been accredited with NAAC grade A.
  •  CUSAT also has a relatively better and robust syllabus as compared to KTU. From my knowledge, it is tougher than NITs and possibly nearly equivalent to the syllabus taught in BITs and IITs.

If you want to compare, you should take a look at the first-year syllabus taught at both places.

  • CUSAT also has better faculty. Most of them hold a Ph.D. or are highly experienced individuals in their field of study.
  • Moreover, CUSAT is ranked among the top 1000 universities in the world whereas NITs themselves are not on the list. 
  • If you are concerned about placements, you don’t need to worry about them. The highest package offered at CUSAT is INR 15 LPA with an average package of INR 4.7 LPA.
  • Major recruiters at the college include Cisco, L&T, and TCS whereas when it comes to KTU most students are of the opinion that only 30% of them have been placed.
  • Another major plus point is that the Engineering branch has been accredited under tier 1 colleges by NBA.
  • Lastly, the campus also plays a pivotal role when it comes to choosing between the two. My friends would describe it as the dream campus with exciting opportunities.

From this, my advice to you would be to definitely consider CUSAT over KTU for your studies. Your career will be set and you will have a plethora of opportunities open for you.
