Which one is better, IIM or IIFT Delhi?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : April 29th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

IIM is the first choice for anyone who wants to do their MBA. However, saying all IIMs are equal is an oversimplification. You can split them into five different categories.

IIM Ahmedabad, Bangalore, and Calcutta are currently ranked first, second, and third. IIM Lucknow ranks at 4th, followed by IIM Kozhikode.

FMS Delhi and XLRI Jamshedpur are often compared to IIM Lucknow. IIMK is as esteemed as SPJain, IIFT, and MDI.

The fourth group includes IIM Shillong and the new IIMs. These are comparable with other universities like NM, SIBM, and IIT B (Ops). Despite their management potential, it will take time for them to succeed. The fifth category includes the five newest IIMs.

IIFT is one of the most esteemed business schools. J.P. Morgan, Amazon, Goldman Sachs, and Google recruit at this institute. These firms need qualified candidates to fill their openings. Bunge Limited, Archer Daniels Midland, the Dreyfus Company, and Cargill Louis have visited the IIFT on business trips. Many alumni of the Indian Institute of Foreign Trade (IIFT) work for well-known companies, making the brand desirable. Many institute graduates have worked there.

IIFT can be grouped with IIM KI, the third set of IIMs.

Which university is best, VTU or Anna University?

AJ
Arshit Jain Posted On : December 28th, 2022
B,Tech in Information Technology & Computing, Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India (Graduated 2012)

This question is extremely challenging to address. However, by examining a few statistics, you can determine which university is superior.

First and foremost, both of these institutions are Technical Universities for their respective states. If VTU is the Technical University of Karnataka, Anna is the Technical University of Tamil Nadu. This means that all engineering institutions in the state (colleges and not deemed or private universities) are affiliated with these Universities (with very few exceptions). In 1978, Anna University in Chennai was established as a separate university. Anna University was founded 44 years ago. VTU was founded in 1998 as a full-fledged technical university, and it is now 24 years old.

When it comes to student satisfaction at both of these universities, Anna University receives more positive feedback than VTU. In addition, in terms of university controversies and irregularities, VTU has had many problems, corruption, chaos, and friction in the last decade, whereas Anna University has been more peaceful, regular, and flawless in recent times. Anna University is the only technical university in India that has awarded the most PhDs, whereas VTU Ph.D. is a never-ending process due to the University's extreme irregularities. Anna University has some disadvantages, but it is slightly better than VTU.

Which one is better for a CSE: Jamia Millia Islamia or NIT Kurukshetra?

PS
Prajakta Sharan Posted On : September 2nd, 2023
Studied at the National Institute of Technology, Kurukshetra

One of my friends recently passed out from NIT Kurukshetra. He was all praise for the coding culture there and also the placements. A lot of good companies like Google Microsoft Directi offer great packages given that your profile is deserving.

  • The city life however is not very dynamic because Kurukshetra is a small city with very few places to hang out unlike Delhi, a very vibrant city. 
  • The hostel life is great because you make very good friends here. Students are provided with excellent internet facilities.
  • The faculty is decent like any other engineering college with a mix of both good and below-average professors. 
  • The best part is that students won’t have to buy any study material from outside. You get 5 books from the college library for the entire semester and 3 additional books for a 15-day cycle. 
  • The food served in the mess is average but it's the same everywhere.
  • The infrastructure is average but things are slowly getting better under the new director. New buildings and a swimming pool have been made. 

Here is a brief comparison of both NIT Kurukshetra and Jamia Milia:

Parameters

NIT Kurukshetra

Jamia Millia

Fees

INR 1.6 Lakhs (BTech first year)

INR 16,150 ( BTech 1st Year Fees)

Ranking

58 out of 200 in 2023

Average CTC

INR 13.89 LPA

INR 9 LPA 

Top Recruiters

My heart says FMS Delhi. My brain says IIM Calcutta. Where should I go?

PT
Pragya Tripathi Posted On : January 10th, 2023
Working at PhonePe (app) (2018–present)

You should make an informed and logical decision rather than being irrational and believing that your heart says something different than your mind.

Getting to FMS vs. IIMC. Both are excellent business schools that have been in operation for many years. However, there is a reason why IIM ABC is mentioned in the same breath as the top three business schools in the country. Every ranking dating back decades has confirmed this. Every Indian is aware of it. FMS, while a good B School, is not compared to IIM ABC because they are superior in every way to any other B School.

When people say that the IIM tag is important, they are correct; however, how much it matters and for which IIMs is a different stories. Even the big four - PwC, Deloitte, KPMG, and E&Y - do not rank IIM ABC and IIM LKI equally. There is a distinct distinction. The rest of the time, you can deduce how much IIM ABC command the tag value over every other IIM. When compared to colleges that are not in the top 15, the tag matters for other IIMs. So, yes, the tag is important, but it is especially important for IIM ABC, which places a high value on the tag. This label is permanent for ABC graduates, but this cannot be said for other IIM graduates.

There are no parallels between IIM Calcutta and FMC Delhi. IIM C is far superior to and ahead of FMS. FMS is simply ranked lower than IIM ABC. You should think about it and make the right decision.

Should I take BITS Goa for ECE or NITK for information technology (IT)?

PS
Prateek Sinha Posted On : August 10th, 2021
Ph.D. Engineering Geology & Geotechnical Engineering, National Institute of Technology Karnataka, Surathka

IT in NITK is the most sought-after branch after CS and EC. You should also be aware of the status of NITS and BITS. NITs are usually national-level institutes, but the onus of choosing your preferred branch and institute finally depends on you.

NITs have always been better than private institutes. Look at your area of interest. Do you like to tinker with electronic objects or is coding your forte? Once you clear this out, you will have a clear idea about what to choose.

But, if you are unable to make a decision, look at placements if you are going to look for a job in the future. Students from CS and IT get paid really well with higher chances of bagging a job as compared to other branches.

As far as these two colleges are concerned, NITK has better placements for IT. BITS Goa is good too. Overall, you will not regret choosing either of these two colleges but in the end, it all boils down to your interests.

5 years down the line which will benefit you better, SP Jain or JBIMS?

S
Sagardeep Posted On : March 3rd, 2023
Studied at Faculty of Management Studies, University of Delhi (Graduated 2021)

Both SP Jain and JBIMS are highly reputable, but objectively speaking, SPJIMR should be the preferred choice between the two. Its selection process is highly unique, based on profile and fit, and extremely thorough. The school thoroughly evaluates if a candidate matches its culture and academic standards. It is recommended to visit the SPJIMR campus for the interviews. The social integration through the DOCC and Project Abhudaya programs helps to produce well-rounded leaders. Placements at SPJIMR are also noteworthy, so be sure to review their placement reports.

In conclusion, if you do not have experience with A, B, C, L, FMS, and XL, then SPJIMR is the ideal campus for pursuing an MBA.

But in the case of IT and CSE, NIT Durgapur grasps a better position than IIEST.
