Lives in Bangalore

IIIT Bangalore and IIIT Hyderabad are top institutions.

IIIT Hyderabad competes with the top IITs. The coding culture over there is top notch and the competitive spirit among peers makes you work very hard. The faculty is hardworking and inspires students to become good professionals. Students are encouraged to create their own successful startups like SETU,Crypsis, Synovel etc. IIIT H intakes students purely on merit basis, there is no provision of reservation during admissions.

Is it a wise decision to choose IMS BHU over KGMU?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : September 26th, 2023

Many people consider IMS BHU better than KGMU due to internal PG. But the truth is internal PG at IMS BHU will only give only a single attempt to get an internal seat at a low rank. Moreover, owing to the rotation system in a particular year, there might be no internal seat for a particular branch for a specific category. If you happen to belong to that particular branch, you will have to be among toppers else you won't be eligible for internal benefit or state quota. KGMU on the other hand, will give you unlimited attempts with a state quota

Also, I feel MBBS is not just about PG, but also about the holistic development of the students. That being said, the IMS tag isn't as valuable as the KGMU tag.

So, I don't think it's wise to choose IMS BHU over KGMU.

IPM from Indian Institute of Management Rohtak (Expected 2024)

Before explaining to you the CAP process convened by IIM Rohtak let’s discuss in brief what exactly CAP is.

CAP stands for Common Admission Process. It is a single admission process conducted by the following IIMs alternatively: IIM Ranchi, IIM Trichy, IIM Rohtak, IIM Raipur, IIM Udaipur, or IIM Kashipur. Under this process, the candidate has to give a WAT/PI(Written Ability Test/Personal Interview) process under CAP. All the member institutes will be given the scores of this test and based on their respective criteria, each institute will declare its own list of shortlisted candidates.

CAP process 

Let’s discuss the various steps involved in this admission process

  • Fill in your choices of IIMs in the CAT form.
  • When CAT results are declared, the institutes under CAP make a shortlist based on their own criteria.
  • The IIM which is organizing the CAP that year collects the shortlisted candidates' names from other institutes and informs them about the CAP IIMs which have shortlisted them for WAT/PI.
  • The shortlisted candidates will have received a CAP link which they have to duly fill out. He will also be informed about the date and location of the CAP process.

Starting in 2018, every candidate has to appear for CAP irrespective of which IIM they belong to.

How can I get an education loan (I have got admission in NIT Durgapur)?

RT
Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : September 7th, 2023

You can avail these reliefs from the college/ banks to pursue your education at NIT Durgapur-

The tuition fee of NIT Durgapur is INR 62,500 per semester for B.Tech students. But if your family income is less than 1 Lakh or you belong to SC/ST category, your tuition fee will be 100% waived. If your family income is between 1 Lakh- 5 Lakh per annum, your tuition fee will be 2/3rd waived. 

To get a waiver on your fee, you have to submit an income certificate from competent authorities.

You can take an educational loan from a bank. When you visit the campus during admissions, you will spot people with pamphlets of their banks. Approach them and they will guide you through the entire process. I know some people who teach tuition to local students. This is a great way of earning some money on the side.

I hope this answer helped you and provided some useful guidance.

What should be my strategy for getting admission in IIT Bombay for an MTech in the CSE branch?

MB
Mansi Basu Posted On : March 20th, 2023
Studied MBA at IIM B

One of my friends made it into IISc with a rank of 10. I enquired about the strategy he adopted to score such high marks. He told me about his 3 milestone theories and the things he achieved on the way. The final outcome is 75 marks in GATE which will help you get CSE in IIT Bombay.

1st Milestone: The first and foremost goal you should set is to achieve 25 marks in GATE. This can be done by working on some basic mathematics, aptitude, and core subjects. This can be done from

the college itself. Try to secure 25 marks in the final year on the first attempt and once you are done move to the second milestone.

2nd milestone: You have to achieve another 25 marks to make it 50. I suggest not taking a gap to prepare for this. This can be done over the 2 years after your graduation during which you can take up an IT job and increase your work experience. This will be useful during placements at IIT Bombay. 

To achieve this milestone, read some more core mathematics, and cover 3–4 core subjects previous 25 marks revision. If you are able to secure 50 marks over the next couple of attempts, you don’t have to worry much as you can get admission in any IIT.

3rd milestone: If you want those additional 25 marks take help from some professionals and seniors. 

My friend got a 10 rank after working on this strategy and he is working at Microsoft today.

BTech Electrical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology, Gandhinagar (2018)

For B.Tech, you need to appear in IIT JEE and score a valid rank. If you are willing to take admission in M.Tech, a valid score in GATE is required. 

  • After the submission of the application, a list of the shortlisted candidates will be posted on the college’s website. 
  • If you are shortlisted, you will have to be present at the Campus on the date mentioned in the notice.
  • You will first have to appear for an Aptitude Test which consists of English, Maths, and Basic Core questions. The results for this test are declared in an hour or two.
  • If you are shortlisted after the Aptitude Test, you will have to attend a personal interview. This is considered the final round. 
  • If you are selected for the interview, you will be welcomed to the college’s MTech course. Sometimes questions based on Maths, Matrices, Differential Equations, etc. could be asked in the interview.

This is because the college is more into CFD and analysis of materials where one needs to have a good hold in the Finite Element Analysis.

Getting admitted to ICFAI Business School Hyderabad is relatively easier compared to other MBA colleges. To gain admission, you will need to possess average aptitude skills. The first step is to appear for the IBSAT, which is conducted by IBS for all its campuses. The exam is relatively easy and can be cleared with decent learning and regular practice of aptitude for not more than 3 months. Additionally, you can also apply to IBS through other MBA exam scores, but IBSAT is easier and more widely accepted.

Based on your performance in the IBSAT, you will receive an invitation for a Group Discussion and Personal Interview (GD-PI) at the IBS Hyderabad campus. 

During the GD-PI, you have the opportunity to showcase your communication skills, domain knowledge, general affairs, and intent for pursuing an MBA.
