How is life at svnit?
I completed my B.Tech Mechanical from SVNIT and went on to pursue my MBA from a reputed business school. However, the days spent at SVNIT are the closest to my heart, and those were the best college days for me.
The crowd of SVNIT is not just culturally diverse, but it consists of some of the best minds of the country. The first semester is a bit overwhelming because one gets to study with some very intelligent people. But as time passes by, such great company is a source of inspiration and motivation for achieving something big in life. GRE, CAT and GMAT form an important part of peer discussions.
In my days, Mechanical was the best department of SVNIT because of its top class faculty (except a few). By the time I graduated from college, I even had a patent in my name. Like any other college, SVNIT is a place to make lifelong friends. When in college, one learns to share food and clothes with friends, and they become one’s second family.
The mess food is good enough, but by second year it starts to feel very boring. But then, Surat city has great eateries, so food is never a problem for SVNIT students. The environment is amazingly supportive towards finding one’s passions and hobbies.
The life of SVNIT is filled with ups and downs, but the time spent at this place is really great and unforgettable.
Have heard the 1 year MBA program at ISB Hyderabad is very rigorous. What would be the passing criteria and are there people who fail?
The ISB routine is rigorous, with a heavy workload and limited time to complete it. You will have class quizzes every week and exams every fortnight, in addition to other extracurricular activities and assignments. However, once you become accustomed to it, you may find that you enjoy the challenge.
It is important to have decent academic skills, as evidenced by a GMAT score in the range of 600 to 770, but it is also important to note that your performance in class quizzes, assignments, and other activities also plays a role in determining your grade. If you are considering applying to ISB, it is important to focus on your application and not let the rigorous routine discourage you.

Is the integrated MSc program (Physics) in IIT Kharagpur good?
There are two scenarios under which this can be discussed.
- You are looking for good placements, under this scenario, seeking to become a Psychist is almost impossible since you will have to aim for higher studies first.
- You want to become a psychist irrespective of the job you get: This is for those who are passionate about becoming a Psychic and are ready to forgo high packages to pursue their interests.
IIT KGP: As far as the IIT Kharagpur Integrated MSc is concerned, I will be brutally honest in letting you know that IIT KGP is not the right place to pursue Physics. This is just not my opinion but the opinion of many alumni and professors of the Institute itself. The academic environment and exposure are not good for learning physics.
IIT Kanpur: While some may say that there is a certain bias between core Engineering students and physics students, IIT Kanpur still is the best when it comes to imparting Physics education. It offers the right opportunities and exposure required for this program.
IISER: These are usually research-oriented and the education imparted here lays great emphasis on basic sciences. Great exposure in the form of research work is offered to make the program a high-quality one. The students attend seminars and talks to discuss the ongoing research in various fields giving a practical approach to the entire curriculum. The research work is more extensive than that of other institutes.
Your top two choices should be IIT Kanpur and IISER. If you are going for the latter, make sure you look into the research work done by the professors there. But if you are after placements, go for IITs.
It's always a good idea to research and speak with current students or alumni to get a better sense of what a program is like. Additionally, it is important to consider whether the program aligns with your career goals and interests.
Does EY GDS offer an MBA at ISB Hyderabad?
Yes, EY GDS does offer an MBA at ISB Hyderabad. But if we talk about its worth, it’s a debatable issue. My friend has been with the firm for nearly 2 months and has a lot to say about the course. Some major pros and cons below will help you make a wiser decision
Pros
- You get to interact with geniuses and gain excellent experience.
- You are a way ahead of your peers and get a spike in promotion
Cons
- The course is generally taken up by girls who want to postpone their marriage on the pretext that they are still studying or boys who have no clue what to pursue. So the peer group is of substandard quality.
- EY has recently made changes to the course and customized it to suit one’s needs. This sort, of course, is not worth the hype.
- Campus life is extremely hectic as you have to manage your course assignments alongside working on EY client engagements.
- The course has hefty fees
Make your decision after weighing the pros and cons only.
