Was language and food major (problems) obstacles for North Indians for an MBBS in JIPMER?

MS
Manjil Sharma Posted On : September 21st, 2023
Studied MBBS from Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research, Pondicherry (2020)

Honestly, the South Indian food served in Pondicherry cannot be tolerated by North Indians for long because they are not used to the spices and the tamarind. But the bright side is, that Pondicherry has some amazing places serving North Indian and continental food. 

I don't think food is a major obstacle for a North Indian MBBS student at JIPMER. Here is what the food at Pondicherry looks like.

The above pic shows scrumptious Bread and Chocolate, Auroville. The restaurants in Pondicherry are amazing so food should be your last concern here.

As a North Indian, my friend faced some major language issues, especially at the time of applying for ward leave. Her worst experience was the RHC posting during her internship. She had to interact with people in rural areas who spoke a more complex version of the language.

Overall, North Indians might miss their food and interact with their locals but not regret choosing JIPMER despite that!

What are the chances of getting an admission into IIM Calcutta?

SG
Sagnik Guha Posted On : November 28th, 2022
Studied at Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad

Let’s discuss the changes in getting admission into IIM Calcutta through past figures (general category only).

Apart from CAT score, the chances of getting into IIMC depend on various factors such as

  • Academic profile (i.e. marks in 10th, 12th, and undergraduate)

  • Academic Diversity

  • Work experience

  • Gender Diversity

  • Category-based evaluation (EWS, NC-OBC, SC, ST, PWD)

IIM Calcutta has around 200-220 general category seats. Also, it rejects 4 students for 1 selection which means around 1100 students are shortlisted. To be among these 1100 students you need to have at least 99.33 percentile.

The chances increase if you are a favorable candidate apart from a high CAT score. Being a female, non-engineer, decent work experience. If you aren’t then your cutoff increases to 99.5. 

Your chances drop to 0.5% and passing the interview round becomes more difficult.

So work around the factors I have mentioned beforehand to become a favorable candidate for admission into IIMC

Is there direct admission in KIIT?

BS
Biswajeet Sinha Posted On : July 25th, 2023
B.Tech in CSCE from Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology (KIIT)

If you haven’t appeared for KIITEE and want to get direct admission to KIIT, you will have to choose one of the 2 ways mentioned below

  • Either visit the admission department located on campus and talk about direct admission. They call it management quota and the fees charged for the same is higher than regular admission. For CSE it’s the highest and its in decreasing order for the rest of the branches 
  • If you have a good JEE Main rank or 12th score, then they will consider your admission with donations.

These are the only 2 ways I am aware of to seek direct admission to KIIT.

At what rank can one get admission to IISC Bangalore?

SP
Shikha Poddar Posted On : July 21st, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore (IISc) (2016)

Being a GE candidate makes every option exponentially harder. Here are some of the exams with their cutoffs (probable) to secure admission to IISc Bangalore for your UG program-

  • KVPY SA and SX- The cut-off varies from year to year and depends on the difficulty level of the examination. It lies around the rank which secures a total of 65 marks.
  • JEE Mains- Because of IISc’s increasing popularity and demand, a score above 325/360 will be good enough. This means a rank in the Top 10 (by marks solely in JEE Mains exam and not taking into account Board Normalization) will secure your admission into IISc Bangalore.

Ultimately though, the JEE Mains cutoff depends on the number of remaining seats after the KVPY admissions have been processed and verified. 

  • JEE Advanced- A rank within the Top 20 will be good enough. Ultimately, it depends on the number of vacant seats after the 1st and 2nd rounds of KVPY counseling.

These are the probable marks & ranks in various exams that are required for your admission into IISc Bangalore.

Also, prepare well if you are called for an interview. The UG program at IISER Pune, Kolkata, and Mohali are at par with the ones offered at IISc Bangalore. IISc Bangalore, however, has years of research experience behind it.

With 95% in CBSE, should I try for a B.Com (Hons) from DU or pursue a BBA from Christ University?

A
Admin Posted On : May 16th, 2024

Both the colleges are well known and the degrees that you want to pursue are in high demand. However, it depends on your interests and preferences. A BBA degree from Christ University focuses on the various aspects of marketing, business administration, management, operation and human resources. The B.Com degree from Delhi University focuses on finance, commerce, economics and accounting. Another factor that you must consider is the location of the college and which is more comfortable for you. Both the colleges have active campus life but Christ is the winner because of the multiple events, fests and club activities that take place every day. The placements for both the courses are satisfactory. So, give it a thought and choose the degree that you are passionate about.

What are my chances of getting into IIM Kozhikode, with 90 percentile in the CAT if I'm a female OBC fresher engineer hailing from Kozhikode?

SP
Shivam Pandey Posted On : November 14th, 2022
PGP from Indian Institute of Management Amritsar (Graduated 2020)

To get into IIM Kozhikode, a percentage of atleast 95 is preferable. Being from Kozhikode won’t be of much help.

One major piece of advice to you if you are a fresher is to indulge yourself in extracurricular activities. Get extra certificates through internships or part-time jobs. Paid courses that offer certificates will also be helpful. All this will help you in the GD-Pi process and you're likely to convert your call.
