Admin Posted On : June 25th, 2024

ECE at IIT Bhubaneswar and CSE at the BITS Pilani Hyderabad campus both are good options for you to choose from.

How is the B.Sc. psychology department of Bethune College? Can I get admission if my rank is 40 and there are 13 seats?

RC

Yes, you can get admission in B.Sc Psychology at Bethune College as a number of students leave their seats for better colleges. You can then try to get a seat during the second, third or fourth cut-off list.

Bethune College has highly qualified faculty members but the classes are not conducted regularly. Sometimes they even fail to complete the syllabus. But if we ignore these flaws, they are quite brilliant as educators.

If you're joining this college, make sure you can study by yourself because you will not get constant attention from teachers. Bethune College will provide you with a better experience. In Bethune, you will develop both academically and holistically. Overall it is a great institution to be a part of.

How is the IIT Madras BSc Data Science and Programming course? Can it be compared with BSc Computer Science?

SD
Shweta Das Posted On : July 22nd, 2021
Indian Institute of Technology, Madras (2019)

As you can see, both these courses are incredibly different, even if you just base it on their names.

Data science will need some knowledge of computer science but it does not completely entail computer science. It will also need you to know about machine learning, statistics, and mathematics.

Both these subjects are vastly different. With the increasing need for data scientists around the world, institutes have been compelled to provide this course be it online or offline.

My advice to you would be to do your research before you decide to enroll in either of these courses.

Should one choose CMI B.Sc in mathematics and computer science over CSE at BITS, Hyderabad, NIT/IIIT Allahabad , IIEST Shibpur or Jadavpur University?

AK
Ahaana Kaushik Posted On : March 2nd, 2021
Studied at Jadavpur University (2019)

To choose between any of the two, you need to be clear about your page of interest first. Are you interested in theoretical Computer Science and Mathematics or the technical CS&E offered at engineering colleges?

However, having friends at CMI, I will be able to point out the pros and cons associated with the institution:

Pros:

  • The biggest advantage you can get here is that you can for Ph.D. immediately after BSc without doing MSc. That’s the reason more than 80% of the whole batch of CMI opts for Ph.D. By this, you can understand the rigor of the course and its focus on research.
  • If you do not want to go for Ph.D., you can take up higher-level MSc courses in the institute itself if you have completed the pre-requisites.

Cons

  • Honestly, nobody really knows about CMI in India except the Maths fraternity. Even my friend, who is now an alumnus of CMI, came to know about it only when he was in class 12. 
  • Don’t get surprised when your friends and relatives will go blank when you tell them that you attend CMI.

However, on the other hand, if you go to any of these top engineering colleges and for a CSE program you can definitely get a good placement of 5+ lakhs.

No, colleges like Wilson or Elphinstone don’t require you to take MH-CET for admission into B.Sc. courses. MH-CET is required for admission into specialized courses like Engineering, Medical, or Pharmacy. In order to be eligible for B.Sc. Biotechnology, you need to have Biology in your 10+2.
