Why is the IIIT Bangalore not much recognized in spite of having an excellent faculty?
It’s true that IIIT Bangalore has an excellent faculty pool and a well-structured curriculum yet struggles to maintain a good image in the student community. This has resulted from many combined factors such as
- The iMTech program offered by IIIT Bangalore is relatively new and is yet to establish its name in the industry
- IIIT Bangalore does not believe in marketing and prefers the reputation of the college to spread by word of mouth.
- The most important factor that has resulted in IIIT Bangalore's poor reputation is that it does not offer any 4 years BTech programs. Not many prefer spending 5 years instead of 4 in the integrated program.
I hope IIIT Bangalore overcomes these issues and gains the hype it deserves.
What is the atmosphere at MANIT, Bhopal like?
Before joining MANIT Bhopal, I was also worried about how the atmosphere on campus would be.
But when I got here, I realized that ragging has almost gone extinct on campus. Since the past few years, there have been no cases of ragging in the college. MANIT might not be your first choice, but you’ll come to love this college with time. The college has a good reputation, and your hardwork will get you your dream job.
The CSE department witnesses really good placements, and now, even the other branches are performing well. Every student of this college gets equal placement opportunities. With the required skill set and a good personality, you can easily crack campus interviews and get placed.
MANIT is a good college with lots of opportunities. As an NIT, it has a brand value as well.
What are the selection criteria for IIM Shillong?
The admissions process for the Post-Graduate Program (PGP) at IIM Shillong involves two stages. In the first stage, candidates who have qualified through the Common Admission Test (CAT) are shortlisted and invited to take the Writing Skills Assessment Test (WSAT) and participate in a Personal Interview (PI). The second stage involves the creation of a final merit list based on the candidates' performance in the WSAT, PI, and other relevant factors such as their GMAT scores, scholastic performance, and work experience.
Overseas candidates will also go through a similar process, with the Admissions Committee carefully reviewing their applications and shortlisting those who meet the necessary criteria. These candidates will then be invited to take the WSAT and participate in a PI, which may be held in one of four cities in India or conducted remotely via video conferencing. The final selection of candidates is based on their performance in the WSAT, PI, and the criteria used for shortlisting them for the PI. Tentative offers of admission will be made by the end of April, and registration for the PGP program is tentatively scheduled for the first week of July at the IIM Shillong campus.
What is the best choice, NIT Rourkela for CSE or IIT Kharagpur for civil engineering?
Comparing IIT Kharagpur with NIT Rourkela is a bit illogical considering the fact that IIT Kharagpur is among the top 5 engineering colleges in the country. Yes, NIT Rourkela CSE is good in terms of infrastructure and placements but it is yet to match the level of top NITs like NIT Trichy, NIT Surathkal, NIT Warangal and MNNIT Allahabad
IIT KGP is a brand in itself and is the other institute of all IITs. you shouldn't worry even if you are getting one of the least preferred branches here. This is because by working extra hard in the first year, you can easily upgrade your branch to a better one. Even if you fail to do so let me tell you that the coding culture here is very strong and even non-CS students can be seen coding.
Ultimately, I would suggest choosing IIT KGP mainly because of its high ranking, better crowd quality, IIT tag, and extensive alumni base.

How often do you regret being a day scholar at LHMC?
Being a day scholar at LHMC has its own pros and cons.
LHMC is located in CP, and well connected to the rest of Delhi NCR via metro. So commuting on regular days is no issue at all. Metro time is rather enjoyable. You can catch up with friends from other colleges. It is a good opportunity to finish your typing/editing work and save up some time. Metro will become an indispensable part of your daily routine.
But during exams, and particularly practicals, spending 2+ hours commuting is a waste of time. Even during theory exams, it is a struggle to travel back and forth from the college daily.
Carrying heavy books to and from the college is very hectic, one such book is Park’s and Robbins. Another thing is that you’ll miss out on a lot of fests and events. Traveling back home after the celebrations is an issue.
So yes, there will definitely be days when you regret being a day scholar at LHMC. But it is mostly during fest and exams.
As a non-teleguite, what was your experience at NIT Warangal?
I completed my B.Tech from NIT Warangal a few years back. These are my experiences-
- At NIT Warangal, you will get the opportunity to explore a new culture and learn about the Telugu people’s festivals, lifestyle, etc. You will miss this learning opportunity if you choose a college near your hometown. NITW will teach you to respect others’ cultures and adapt to a completely different place.
- While in the South, you will get the chance to taste authentic South Indian delicacies. The mess food is really disappointing though.
- You might face some language barriers with your faculty and the administration. This may overwhelm you at times. However, rest assured that they are most probably not discriminating against you for being an outsider.
- Whenever you feel lonely and not understood, try to figure out if you were wrong somewhere. Try to be strong, correct your mistakes and face the obstacles head-on.
- You will get to hear the sweetest version of Hindi- the Hyderabadi Hindi. You will also watch plenty of Tollywood movies and realize how brilliantly some of them are made.
All of these are my experiences as a North Indian at NIT Warangal. NITW is an amazing place for your growth. Also, through this college, I got to live in the South and explore a totally different culture and place.
