NMIMS may have deteriorated over the last few years but it still is considered one of the top 10 B Schools in the country. It is still preferred by many owing to various factors like location, industry exposure, placements, and peer learning. 

Pros

• The industry exposure one can avail owing to its excellent location is a primary reason for its everlasting reputation 
• It enjoys better brand recognition that the newer IIMs
• The placements at NMIMS are excellent with almost all the companies visiting the top IIMs cities NMIMS campus. However the quality of roles offered may slightly vary. Yet when compared to newer IIMs, NMIMS has a much better placement scenario.
• The location itself is a major reason why it is preferred over the new IIMs
• An average person may find it difficult to bag a good package at NMIMS. But if you are among the top students you can easily get a good package as the average is INR 23.07 LP

Cons

The increasing batch size has become a major issue thereby reducing the overall quality of education and placements.

Before I tell you about the subject-size strategy for AIIMS Delhi admission, you need to realize that clarity of goals and a very high level of dedication are prerequisites to getting admission. You should be adamant about AIIMS Delhi and motivate yourself in such a way you end up clearing it. 

For subject-wise preparations, you can refer to the below points

Biology: Only NCERT is sufficient for Biology. Every line and diagram should be given equal importance as questions can come from anywhere. Additionally, you can practice MCQs from books like MTG NCERT at your fingertips or any other available to you.

Chemistry. For Physical, you only need some formulae and knowledge for its right application. You need a strong grasp of chapters like thermo, equilibrium, solution, and electrochemistry. Inorganic chemistry needs to focus only on NCERT while for organic, concepts are the key. Additionally, refer to MCQ books like MTG or Arihant.

Physics: First preference is always NCERT followed by S. L Arora or HCV or DC Pandey. Choose one but master it completely. For further preparation, you can practice from previous years' NEET and JEE questions.

GK: Don’t underestimate this portion as it’s the scoring area that tests your common sense and social awareness only,

So, clearing a competitive exam requires 

• 50% determination
• 40% hard work
• 10% luck

So be prepared to give your 90%!

The standard of education and the institute's credibility can alone be determined by going through the rankings. So, I will be stating some highlights pertaining to the campus life at BIT Mesra, in general,

• BIT Mesra has an active club culture with more than 60 clubs promoting a number of extracurricular activities
• NIT Rourkela has the 2nd largest campus in India and is a great place to be at.
• The hostel life is also great with minimal restrictions at least for boys. 
• The mess is in close proximity to the hostel and the level of hygiene is commendable here. The mess follows a 4-meal per day system wherein Breakfast is served in the morning at around 7 -9.30 am, lunch at 12–1:30 pm, snacks at 5–6 pm, and finally dinner at 8–9:30 pm.
• Many night canteens run till 3 in the morning to cater to the midnight cravings of the students. 
• The institute is a heaven for sports lovers. It has facilities for almost every kind of sport like football, cricket, hockey, volleyball, basketball, and kabaddi.
• The internet connection facilities are however poor and this matter needs to be taken care of.

You will be surprised to know that my friends in other NITs keep complaining about the campus life there while I was very satisfied with the quality of campus life offered at NIT Rourkela. So, in addition to academics, NIT Rourkela also offers a vibrant college life!
