Should I take admission in CUSAT?

SJ
Sudesh Jaiswal Posted On : August 8th, 2023
B.Tech Civil Engineering, School of Engineering, Cochin University of Science and Technology (2017)

Whether you should take admitted to CUSAT or not depends on your personal goals and what you are looking for in a university. CUSAT is highly-regarded in India, known for its strong programs in engineering, technology, and science. Its credibility can further be assessed through the ratio of North and South Indian students on the campus which is almost 50:50. This means CUSAT is well known only among South Indians but also among North Indians.

CUSAT has two campuses, one in Cochin SOE and another in Alleppey - CUCEK. The placement scenario is somewhat similar on both campuses. 

Before getting admission here, you need to know that the only key to getting placed is good grades and no backs. You won’t be spoon-fed the professor's notes here and will have to survive on your own. If you are enthusiastic, then only come here. 

However, you should research more about its program offerings to determine if they align with your interests and career goals.

Should I join NIT Agartala or go for any private university?

Namrata Das Posted On : September 18th, 2023

Choosing between NIT Agartala and a private university depends mainly on two factors, the branch you are getting at NIT and obviously your financial situation.

One needs to be financially strong if one wants to join private colleges. Moreover, not every private college is good and most of them have a poor crowd that got in by paying huge amounts. The most credible ones are BITS Pilani, BIT Meshra, VIT Vellor and VIT Bhopal. Unless you are getting these colleges, it’s better to join NIT Agartala.

If you have financial constraints or want to get the NIT tag, then NIT Agartala is a much better choice. However, the placements of some branches are really bad here so you can also upgrade your branch after your 1st year to CSE or ECE.

Ultimately, the decision will depend on your personal preferences and financial condition.

What is the environment of JIPMER like? How is it different from other medical colleges?

KC
Kushal Chaudhuri, Posted On : September 20th, 2023
MBBS from Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research, Pondicherry (2018)

Here are some facts about life at JIPMER-

  1. The college strictly follows a no-ragging policy.
  2. JIPMER takes discipline quite seriously. Academics is considered the second most important thing. A low attendance will straightaway lead to supplementary.
  3. The dress code needs to be followed sincerely. Boys can’t keep odd hairstyles and mustache cuts. You can’t wear open shoes to the clinics, even during hot weather.
  4. You will not be excused for a bad history taking during clinics. 
  5. Among all academic activities, clinic postings are given the utmost importance. This ensures that you get ample exposure to cases.
  6. The PSM department will take you on visits to different places, from watching mosquitoes grow in the Vector Control Institute to studying villages in remote areas.
  7. Post-hospital and duty hours, you are free to do whatever you like.
  8. The hostel facility is top-notch. Hostels are completely secluded from the crowded hospital area, and ample security is provided. The hostels are at par with AIIMS Delhi hostels.
  9. You’ll enjoy midnight hostel parties and movie nights.
  10.  On Curie Day and Osler Night, the girls' hostels are open for boys, and vice versa.
  11. The college fest, Spandan, is celebrated over 7 days and nights. No classes are held during this period. 

Overall, JIPMER will provide a rich environment for your professional growth. Apart from that, Pondicherry is a beautiful place which you should definitely visit upon joining this institute. Some of these experiences, I am sure, you won’t get at most other medical colleges.

Is it true that FMS Delhi puts absolutely no weightage on academics

JS
Jatin Sangwan Posted On : December 30th, 2022
Pgdbm from XLRI,Jamshedpur (Graduated 2020)

FMS Delhi is one of the few top B-schools of the country that gives the lowest weightage to the past academic record of candidates. 

The table below shows the various parameters and their respective weightage that are taken into consideration for final selection into FMS Delhi.

An additional 5 marks will be awarded to the Women Candidates who appear for the Interview. From the table, we can infer that very little (10%) weightage is given to class 10 and 12th marks. And graduation scores are not considered at all for final selection. This means 80% of your application score is still under your control and you can harness it to the fullest extent and get selected.

Is it worth to join an MBA at JBIMS at the age of 28 having lot of academic gaps and no any work experience?

MJ
Manish Jain Posted On : February 20th, 2023
Studied Finance at Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies

Joining JBIMS for MBA without any work experience may have a slight drawback. Whether the overall experience will be worth it or not, depends on the exact purpose with which you have started on this journey.

With all honesty, your lack of experience and academic gaps will have a negative impact on your placements. Getting higher packages will be almost impossible as companies might object to your flaw in the profile. I am not saying that MBA will be a bad choice, but it will benefit you academically and not financially. It will increase your knowledge and skills and add value to your CV thereby improving your initial situation. But as far as placements are concerned, you will be slightly at a disadvantage to others.

You will be eligible for the final placements only and not the lateral ones. Many companies may or may not put filters on age, work experience, and academics. It all depends on the particular company and your luck. With excellent communication skills and content building, you can make your way into the interview and much more. But you have to strive hard for a very long time as the race is a difficult one for you. If you can prepare well with no pressure or expectations, especially during the summer internship process, you should be fine.

Coming to the knowledge and skills that you will acquire during the MBA, it will certainly have a positive impact on you. You will be able to get rid of negativity and focus on acquiring maximum knowledge. 

Still, at the end of the day, I will advise you to get a job and get a level of experience to make your journey a bit easier.
