Here are some of the things that make IISER Kolkata stand out. 

Course Choice: You can choose your course from Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics, even from Earth Sciences. 

Peaceful Campus: The campus is secluded and hence ideal for studies.

Faculties: The faculties of IISER Kolkata are well-known worldwide for their research work.

Friendly Environment: The professors and the seniors are quite friendly. You can discuss any problem you may have with your faculties openly. 

Alumni Network: IISER Kolkata has a vast alumni network. The alumni base of IISER K is better than that of IISER Pune. 

All IISER have their own pros and cons, so there is no use in comparing one IISER to another. IISER Pune has better infrastructure and outreach but that doesn’t make it better than all the other IISER. All these IISERs are great options for pursuing your studies.

The decision to join a particular B-school ultimately depends on your individual career goals, personal preferences, any constraints you might have, and the specific offerings of each institution.

Here are some key factors to consider when comparing new and baby IIMs with other B-schools such as TAPMI or KJ Somaiya. But if you ask me, if you have calls from any of the IIMs, just join them without a doubt. New and baby IIMs have been established relatively recently and may not have the same level of brand recognition and industry connections as older and more established B-schools but the IIM tag matters a lot in the industry. 

TAPMI and KJ Somaiya are well-established B-schools with a strong reputation for academic rigor and industry connections. They have a well-developed curriculum over a long history of the institute, faculty with extensive industry experience, and a large network of alumni who can help with job placements and career opportunities.

If you are deciding between these institutions, you should consider factors such as location,cost, faculty, industry connections, and curriculum. Consider your own career goals and whether each institution can help you achieve them.

Choosing between CSE and ECE is a matter purely based on personal inclinations. While one branch may be good for you, it may not be for someone else, and vice versa. 

However, in terms of both academics and placements, NIT Warangal clearly has the upper hand. NIT Warangal is among the top 3 NITs and is better than NIT Calicut in almost every aspect. Its laboratory facilities and faculty are among the best.

Although NIT Calicut has an edge in terms of the highest CTC, NIT Warangal's average package beats it. Average packages are a better means of evaluating the placement scenario, and that being said, NIT Warangal is a better option. 

Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering is a part of Dayanand Sagar University campus. DSCE is an autonomous institution and is affiliated with VTU. Dayanand Sagar Institutions as a whole are well-known for their quality of education. 

You don’t need to worry about placements, because placement drive happens under one roof, i.e. DSI. If you are skilled and maintain a good percentile throughout your degree, you can get decent placement opportunities. The average package offered during the recent placement drive at DSU is 6 LPA. During 2021 placements, the highest package offered for DSCE was INR 32 LPA. 

Osmania Medical College is a very old medical institute established in the mid-1800s and has a deteriorating infrastructure now. AIIMS Nagpur on the other hand has been established in 2012 with all modern architecture and facilities. Both the institutes have unique pros and cons and choosing one over the other means which institutes weaknesses you are choosing to overlook.

Osmania Medical College*

Pros 

• Enjoys a good reputation because of its early establishment.
• You get help from many seniors in MBBS, MD, and MS, etc
• Being such an old college, it has an elaborate alumni network with many experienced doctors working in India and abroad. 
• The institute holds the OSMECON, an undergraduate medical conference 
• The institute has 10 attached hospitals, for different specialties. The clinical exposure offered is excellent here. 

Cons

• The infrastructure of Osmania Medical College is horrible and the buildings are falling apart as they are old
• No emphasis on extracurricular activities
• Poor hostel facilities with no accommodation for students from Hyderabad. The food served in the mess and living rooms are in horrible condition.
• Whereas in AIIMS Nagpur every student gets a single room from the beginning, very clean and brand new. Nothing to complain about there.
• The institute lacks funding from the central government
• No research culture here so it’s difficult for students. Planning to go to the US for residency 
• Only 15% of seats are filled through All India Quota and thus there is no diversity in the student body it attracts

AIIMS Nagpur 

• AIIMS Nagpur actively promotes research work and those interested can approach a professor. Most professors have published research publications, journals, and books and will guide you excellently.
• A very diverse student body as it has only AIQ. The cutoff is very high so you will be surrounded by the geniuses of the country.
• AIIMS Nagpur infrastructure is incomparable to OMC as it has been newly established and thus is equipped with modern technology.
• AIIMS Nagpur has excellent hostel facilities with single rooms for every student, great mess food and other hostel facilities.
• AIIMS Nagpur focuses equally on extracurriculars to ensure the holistic development of its students.

AIIMS Nagpur 

Cons

• Because of its recent establishment, the alumni network is barely existent.
• Has no major fests or conferences held at a scale similar to OMC
• The OPD footfall is less in comparison to well-established OMC 

There is no right answer and only to find the right college for you after weighing the pros and cons.

There are several parameters for drawing a comparison between these two colleges. Some of them are mentioned below-

• Placements- During 2023, B.Tech ECE at NIT Kurukshetra recorded 74.15% placements. The CTC range stood at 6-62.75 (LPA). The average package stood at 17.66 LPA, and the median package stood at 14.83 LPA. Some top recruiters from this college include Bharat Light & Power, Adani Group, Aakash, Accolite, Code Nation, Microsoft, Mahindra, ICICI Lombard, among others. But not all companies recruit ECE students.

During 2022 placements at NIT Silchar, the highest package went to INR 44 LPA and the average package stood at INR 13.58 LPA. The list of top recruiters included Amazon,Microsoft, Adobe, Arcesium and Intuit. For the CSE branch, out of 97 registered students, 82 were placed, and 126 offers were given to this branch in total.

• Location - NIT Silchar campus is spread across 600 acres, and is green and beautiful.The college has good connectivity through roads, railways and airways. NIT Kurukshetra is spread across 300 acres. You’ll find the campus green and serene. There are no hangout places as such, but at a minimal charge, you can visit Kurukshetra city in just 20 minutes.

• Infrastructure- NIT Kurukshetra has decent infrastructure and facilities. The buildings for computers and electronics departments are new and modern. Their labs are filled with all the equipment. The campus library is top notch. You’ll get a variety of books for reading and issuing purposes. The book bank offers up to 5 books for 6 months at a highly nominal price of Rs. 30 per book.

• Ranking- As per the NIRF 2023 rankings, among top 100 Engineering colleges, NIT Kurukshetra stands at 58th position and NIT Silchar stands at 40th position.

According to me, the choice is very subjective. You should make your decision after thoroughly considering the pros and cons of each college and department.

Indian construction field values Bhadani and NICMAR. Top infrastructure recruits candidates from both institutes. 

RICS, an international university, creates construction experts and develops its own methodology, codes, and standards (New Rule for Measurement-1,2,3 (NRM-1,2,3)).

NICMAR, Bhadani, and RICS are good for Indian work. RICS is beneficial for MNC exposure and international careers. RICS offers Quantity Surveying, Real Estate Management, and Construction Project Management courses. RICS offers a high package and has over 500 MNC partners for summer internships and placements.

St. Xavier's University and St. Xavier's College, Kolkata are both reputable institutes offering top-quality higher education. However, the nature of institutions is very different and they offer different programs also. 

• St. Xavier's College, Kolkata is a college affiliated to the University of Calcutta, and it offers UG and PG courses in various disciplines, including commerce.
• St. Xavier's University on the other hand is a private university located in Kolkata, West Bengal. The University offers UG, PG, and doctoral courses in different disciplines such as Arts, Science, Commerce, Management, Law, and Education.

The BCom program offered by both institutes is similar in terms of curriculum, but St. Xavier's University offers more advanced and specialized courses. The right program for you depends on your priorities and what you are looking for in a B.Com (Hons.) program. If you are looking for a program that focuses on advanced, specialized courses, then St. Xavier's University may be a better choice for you. But if you are looking for a more old-school and general program, then St. Xavier's College, Kolkata may be a better choice. 

Manipal University is better. It is well-known on national level and has a good brand presence. In terms of academics, placements, exposure, and student crowd, it offers better opportunities. 

Manipal University placements are excellent. The average CTC for the institute is around INR 7.50 LPA. Goldman Sachs, Accenture, Capgemini, and TCS, are some of the major recruiters that visit the campus placement frequently.
