Is it worth joining mining in NIT Raipur, which I got in 3rd round, in terms of placement?

AM
Aditya Mishra Posted On : September 12th, 2023
B.Tech from National Institute of Technology, Raipur

Given your rank of 2900, it would be very difficult to get CSE in these colleges. So you need a lot of luck during the Spot Counseling. If anyone withdraws their admission at the last moment from the CSE branch of these colleges then you might get admission. 

There are chances of getting a seat in MSIT or BVCoE, but it is very difficult in MAIT. Here are the recent cutoff trends of both MAIT and BVCoE

Although the chances of getting CSE are low, you might get EEE with this rank. You can upgrade your branch to CSE by working hard.

Should I Join Kj Somaiya College for Computer or take a drop and Aim for VJTI?

MB
Mallika Bose Posted On : April 5th, 2021
Studied at Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute

Between KJ Somaiya and VJTI, the latter is definitely better. Whether or not you should take a year drop that depends on you and how important is this year to you. 

Comparison:

If you compare KJ Somaiya and VJTI, in terms of placement and higher education you will see that the best students from KJ Somaiya do get similar opportunities as VJTI students. One of my friends attended VJTI and got placed in a company that was one of the best to visit KJ Somaiya too. So, he has 4-6 colleagues from KJ Somaiya. 

As long as brand value goes, after 5 years of the compilation of your course, no one will care where are you from VJTI or KJ Somaiya. 

People will care if you are from IIT though because IIT brand-name sticks. 

A word of advice, dropping a year to join VJTI may not be worth it. If you are going to drop a year, try to get into an IIT or IIIT.

Why do you regret joining NIT Durgapur?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : September 6th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

I don’t think many people regret joining NIT Durgapur. In fact, one of my friends who was earlier doubtful about the institute said that choosing NIT Durgapur was one of the best decisions of his life. 

The institute does have some cons such as average mess food and poor quality of hostels, however, the condition is similar in almost all engineering colleges. Over the past few years, it has been working hard to improve its infrastructure and many new and modern hostels are coming up. There are decent options for eating near the campus. Additionally, a new assembly hall is also under construction. 

The faculty pool like any other engineering college comprises both highly and low qualified professors. You can develop a good rapport with them and trust me they will guide you in making big choices. 

The academic environment is improving for the better and so are the placements. NIT Durgapur also has a tie-up with CERN, Geneva and with the Department of Atomic Energy for the world's first Helium gas exploration plant coming up at Bakreswar. Subir Chowdhury, the present CEO and MD of JCB India, is also an alumni of this college 

Considering all the above facts, I don’t think you can regret joining the institute.
