What is the Best & Worst of studying at CUSAT?
Like any other institution, CUSAT has its own pros and cons.
Here is the best and worst of studying at this university-
Best-
- CUSAT at one point, was to become a central university. It has a high reputation, especially in the eyes of the older generation.
- Studying at CUSAT is a great opportunity to be exposed to the rich culture of Kerala.
- The university ground is huge, and the Basketball court is fully filled in the evenings.
Wrost-
- The teaching lacks enthusiasm and spirit. The classroom lectures are a waste of time.
- The academic calendar is not properly followed.
- Some teachers are not student friendly at all. They have a bit of an ego problem.
- The attendance criteria is much hated by all students.
- It is a lot of work to even get an application approved. The office staff is very inefficient.
- The uniform makes things very dull and monotonous.
These are just some of the goods and bads of CUSAT. Overall, the time spent at this university is filled with unforgettable experiences and cherished memories.
Whats the least one have to score to grab a seat through jipmer?
The cut-off usually depends upon the category you belong from. That being said, if considering that you belong to the General Category, and you are not a resident of Pondicherry, then the cut-off percentile is around 50.
The cut-off is based on the percentile received in the exam. Here are the recent cutoff trends.
| Category (As per Guidelines) | Minimum Percentile Required |
| General Unreserved (UR / OCI / NRI) | 50 |
| General Unreserved (UR) OPH | 45 |
| ST / SC / OBC / OPH | 40 |
Generally, for UR Non-Pondicherry candidates, the available seats are almost about 65, the breakdown of which can be reported as 50 in Pondicherry itself, and 15 in Karaikal. The top 65 rankers are rather marked safe in the list.
Now, if you look closely at the AIIMS and JIPMER merit lists, there are numerous toppers that appear in each of the respective lists. Quite clearly, at least about 30 to 35 candidates choose to leave JIPMER to enlist at AIIMS, New Delhi.
That being said, it is quite natural that the top 100 students will secure a seat in JIPMER under the UR category. The number however can drop down if a candidate is moving to some other college.
Is it worth joining the IIM Ahmedabad FABM programme after spending Rs. 21 lakhs?
IIM-A's PGP-FABM is a two-year full-time program that covers allied areas such as agriculture, food processing, commodities and rural development sector, and rural infrastructure. The fees for the batch 2021-2023 are 28 lakhs.
- One of my friends studying at IIM Ahmedabad said that a certificate doesn’t mean you will get a good placement offer.
- If you are taking a loan then be careful as your placement is not certain. Getting a collateral-free loan would be easy but paying it off will be a real task.
- The most important thing here is your financial goals and if getting a certificate from the IIMA PGP-FABM program fits into it then go ahead.
- As the fees for this program are too high, I’d say think about it and only go for it if you are highly interested in this field of study.
However, if you are still dicey about whether to opt for this program or not I would suggest you to invest in attending a course conducted by Pavan Bhattad’s Brainival. It is a 2-day workshop in which he discusses speed reading, mind mapping, memory techniques, and ideas generation which was initially conducted in Pune.
What is it like to study at IIT Indore?
My friend was taken aback when she had no other option than IIT Indore CSE. She realized that her career had ended even before starting and then she decided to give it a chance. The first night at the hostel itself convinced her otherwise. The intelligence and talents of her roommates amazed her and her doubts regarding the quality of students here washed away. She was happy that she hadn’t gone for a less preferred branch at an older IIT instead. She was proud of making contributions among a smaller batch rather than remaining unidentified among a flock of geniuses.
Today she is proud of her decision and her love for IIT Indore has grown ten folds. Her batchmates are successful and have proved the institute's credibility. Some of them have topped GATE, while some have offers from CMU, Georgia Tech, and UIUC. Some of them even managed to get an entry in IIMs while some are working at blue-chip software companies.
My friend concluded that studying at IIT Indore was nothing short of a miracle considering the excellent opportunities and exposure she got.
Is it easy to get into NICMAR Pune?
It is a bit easy to get into NICMAR but this doesn't mean that you will take the entrance exam very casually. I have seen various people who have tried more than three times to get enrolled in NICMAR Pune.
You have to be sincere with the preparation and work hard. Prepare from RS Aggarwal for the Aptitude section because it is more than enough. Don't spend much time on the Quant because it is going to be a lengthy process. Rather you can solve questions on topics you are already confident enough as it would be helpful.
For the interview process, dress up properly and be confident. Don't be nervous because the interviewers observe your body language.
Moreover, NICMAR offers sponsored seats with 5% seats reserved for the management quota. If you are unable to crack the entrance exam, you can get a seat through this quota. The only condition will to be pay 1.5 times more fee than a regular student.
Should I choose NIT Trichy for CSE or IIT Roorkee for metallurgy? Why?
My brother was in the CSE branch of NIT Trichy and based on his experience, here are a few pointers:
- The professors are extremely learned and experienced and impart quality education
- The relative grading system establishes peer pressure, and as a result, there is tough competition among the students
- IIT Roorkee is well known for its rich coding culture that is promoted by student-driven and institute funded clubs. These clubs give you additional knowledge on web designing, App development, and game development that might be useful later in
- The CSE department is one of the most coveted branches, and being a part of one will inculcate a sense of privilege.
- The hostel and campus life is decent with all necessary amenities.
- A total of 5 fests are held throughout the year and are totally funded and organized by the institute. The institute is located in an area that helps you explore nearby tourist spots like Pondicherry and Ooty.
You won’t ever regret choosing NIT CSE.

How is the MCA program at NIT, TRICHY?
My younger brother is from this Institute, so I am aware of the situation here.
- MCA program at NIT Trichy is great, people coming from all over the country make it even more exciting. You get a chance to meet more diverse people there, the seniors are always there to help you at every step, and you can reach out to them at any time.

- The active participation in Sports, events, seminars, conferences, Technical Lectures, Cultures, Technical meets, Competitions, freelance projects, interdisciplinary research, traveling helps in the personality development of students.

Is IIT Indore really worth it?
Well, IIT Indore might be worth it for some and not for others as this is a very subjective matter. However, Let’s break down the answer to important points and then you yourself can conclude if it's worth it or not.
- Location: Give up on the idea of living in Indore city because IIT Indore is located on the outskirts of a village called Simrol.
- Strictness: IIT Indore has illogical rules and regulations that affect the freedom of their college life. You will be fined for every big or small thing.
- Food: The mess charges are high almost INR 150/- per day. The cafeteria also serves good quality food.
- Placement: The placements of only the CSE and EE branches are decent and other branches still have to go a long way and attract better packages and companies.
- Hostels: The hostel facilities are no doubt excellent here with single occupancy rooms and all modern facilities.
Overall, I don't think IIT Indore is worth the hype it has been receiving and most students flock there because of its great hostel facilities which is quite an illogical reason.
