Which one should I prefer, NIT Bhopal for CSE or NIT Calicut for CSE?

VP
Vaibhav Patwari Posted On : August 24th, 2021
B.Tech. Computer Science and Engineering, Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology (MANIT), Bhopal (2020)

A friend of mine used to be a student of NIT Bhopal and I can give you some insights based on his experiences.

  • Faculty: In terms of faculty, the less you expect from them the better. You will be entirely left to fend for yourselves. Even if the labs are more or less okay, you will have to approach a faculty for making use of the facilities and learn on your own.
  • Attendance: It is not mandatory for the students to maintain a certain percentage of attendance. Having an attendance of 40-50% would be enough. A lot of the students who were in my friend’s batch completed the program through PDF files.
  • Labs: If you are not smart enough to learn on your own then the labs will not be of much help to you. The scenario is changing now however and the students are being forced to go to the labs. 
  • Projects: If you are passionate about development then it will probably get a huge blow as researches oriented programs are only accepted at NIT Bhopal. The institute wants to publish more and more of its research papers in its name for career development. If you do not submit your research paper at the end of your project, your grades will be negatively affected.
  • Placements: Speaking about the placements, it’s good for CSE. All the cons of the institute do not take a toll on the impressive placement record of NIT Bhopal.
  • Coding culture: The competitive programming at NIT Bhopal will bring you in contact with some of the best coders of the institute. The atmosphere also promotes healthy competition.

Apart from all these pros and cons, you will get ample time to prepare for competitive exams like CAT, UPSC, GMAT, GRE, etc.

Which IIM is better, IIM Shillong, IIM Ranchi or IIM Rohtak? Why?

HS
Harsh Singhal Posted On : May 19th, 2023
MBA from Indian Institute of Management Rohtak (2020)

Every MBA aspirant faces the duration of multiple converts which leaves him in a dilemma for choosing the right Institute. Several points need to be considered before choosing the right Institute.

  • Location: For MBA students, exposure is very crucial. IIM Rohtak being situated in NCR, has the location advantage of providing industrial exposure, thereby enabling students to learn and grow. Such a locational advantage also allows many eminent industry experts to visit the campus and conduct guest lectures which maximize exposure. 
  • Peer: One of the major highlights of an MBA program is the social bonds you develop with your peers and seniors that stay with you throughout your career. IIM Rohtak has the best peer pool one could ask for.
  • Placements: Most of the new IIMs have similar placement statistics. But the uniqueness of IIM Rohtak lies in the fact that it is one of those very few colleges across the country, which follow IPRS standards and is audited by CRISIL, thus the authenticity of the report cannot be questioned.
  • Newly appointed director: The new director Prof Dheeraj Sharma has made fast-paced changes right from the beginning. He has sped up the construction work, hired new faculties, and launched a few new courses. 
  • Infrastructure: The campus is large and enthralling spread across 650 acres MDU campus with facilities such as a sports complex, swimming pool, Bloomberg lab etc.
  • Extracurriculars: Yearly events and summits are held to keep the students active and immersed in various co-curricular activities.

Overall, the ambiance at IIM Rohtak is very promising and I would choose it over any new IIM.

Which is better: KIIT or SRM?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : July 26th, 2023

It is a very subjective question and the choice is ultimately yours to make. I would, though, give you some insight on KIIT.

The faculty at KIIT is very helpful. The teachers guide us whenever we need help. There is a strict no-ragging policy on campus and the seniors are amazing. We engage in a lot of extra-curricular activities besides study. KIIT Fest is really good and everyone looks forward to it. 

Both KIIT and SRM have great faculty and placement records. Both institutions offer good opportunities. You should choose according to your personal preferences. For making an informed decision, I would recommend you talk to the students from both institutions and also do some basic research at your end.

How is the College of Engineering Trivandrum compared to NIT Calicut?

MJ
Melvin Joseph Posted On : May 24th, 2021
B.Tech from College of Engineering, Trivandrum (2019)

One of my friends was a student of NIT Calicut and a relative of mine is an alumnus of the College of Engineering Trivandrum. So the answer will be a comparison of their experiences.

Exams: 

  • The system of Kerala University involves allowing the students to appear for supplementary exams to avoid delay in studying for their B.Tech degrees. 
  • In NIT, you will have to repeat the exams you have failed in. This can be either a good thing or a bad thing depending on how you approach your curriculum and exams.

Admission:

  • Students getting admission to CET have to appear for the KEAM; except for a small quota which is reserved for students from the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Mizoram, Nagaland who perform well in the National level Entrance test for NITs and IITs.
  • For this reason, the cross-section of the class shows that there is a majority of Keralites.
  • The campus of NIT Calicut seems to be diverse as students come from various states of India.

Classes:

  • In CET, the classes are like the timetable of a school with a lunch break in the middle. The classes usually get over at 4:00 PM. 
  • In NIT, the classes are not scheduled one after another and you can go to the hostel to catch a breather. The students probably have a say in how they want the classes to be scheduled throughout the week. Depending on your plans, you might find the intermittent NIT classes to increase your productivity.

Learning:

  • In CET, the marks that one obtains in the exams are in no way related to the understanding of the subject matter. 
  • The system cannot distinguish between rote knowledge and understanding which is seemingly different from the conduction of exams in NIT. 
  • It is difficult to predict question papers in CET.

CET students also get a lot of freedom as NIT students. They get ample time to do whatever they want.

How good is SIMSREE K J Somaiya for an MBA in operations? How are the recruiters and what roles are offered?

AS
Akhil Sawant Posted On : September 1st, 2021
MBA from Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies (2011)

Having to know some people studying at both Simsree and K J Somaiya and here are some things that you should know. They both are equally good.

  • Both the institutes, for their MMS course, teach the same syllabus specified by the University of Mumbai. So, according to the content, there is no difference.
  • This is generally a good thing that you are specializing in something that roughly 4 to 5% of the batch will specialize in. 
  • It is not as difficult for the placement committee to get companies with specific profiles.
  • The institutes have been there for a fairly long time and both have a steady pool of recruiters. Therefore, placements are not very problematic. 
  • Having said that, placements depend on multiple factors, and nothing can be guaranteed.
  • K J Somaiya has more full-time faculty members whereas SIMSREE has more visiting faculty members. But cannot say the same about the operations specialization.

Irrespective of where you go, your responsibility is to get better, participate in competitions, do certifications, and improve yourself holistically. The institute cannot impose anything if you have no intention of doing it.
