SK
Singdhanjan Kar Posted On : May 31st, 2023
MBBS from All India Institute of Medical Sciences,New Delhi (2020)

AlIMS Delhi has hostel facilities for both UG and PG students. These hostels are equipped with basic amenities such as a bed, study table, and wardrobe. The hostels also have a common room, which is equipped with a television and a few indoor games. The hostels are maintained by the institute's hostel administration and are supervised by wardens. 

  • The canteen facilities and hygiene measures are average.
  • PG students face a little problem in getting a hostel in comparison to UG students.
  • Due to the shortage of rooms, girls are usually allotted double occupancy rooms.

Can one get admission into NIT Calicut via the Kerala State Entrance Exam (KEAM)?

SS
Shubhi Sharma Posted On : August 20th, 2021
B.Tech from Chandigarh University (2020)

No, you will not get admission to NIT Calicut with your KEAM score. Because NITs and IITs are institutes of national importance, admission is done through National level entrance examinations rather than regional entrance tests. For admission into NITs, the score of JEE(Main) is considered, whereas, for IITs, the score of JEE(advanced) is considered.

Students who completed their XI and XII exams outside of India can apply for DASA seats using their SAT Subject Test scores, and they can also apply for a scholarship through the CIWG scheme, which reduces their tuition to that of JEE students.

VS
Vijay Sarnaik Posted On : March 18th, 2023
Studied at IIT Kanpur
IIT Kanpur and IIT Bombay are the top 2 IITs in India with IIT Kanpur giving an edge to IIT Bombay. The only aspect of IIT Bombay that is better than IIT Kanpur is its metropolitan location. In almost every other aspect, IIT Kanpur is way ahead.

  • After IITKGP, IIT Kanpur has the biggest campus in India, approximately 1100 Acres. IIT Bombay on the other hand is half the size of IIT Kanpur around 560 Acres.
  • IIT Kanpur is the only institute in India to have its own Airstrip, Hangar, Glider pilot licensing system, and National Wind Tunnel Facility.
  • The huge Open Air Theatre has the capacity to accommodate 3000 people at a time.
  • World-class sports facilities.
  • The problems of the students are catered to by the largest counseling service.

IIT Kanpur and IIT Bombay are not even comparable given the advantages IIT Kanpur has over IITB.

Some of the north-eastern NITs are excellent in terms of quality of education and facilities offered such as NIT Silchar, and NIT Agartala. Academics at these NITs can be compared to old NITs such as Durgapur, Kurukshetra, and Raipur.

What is the base salary if we complete CS from NIT Rourkela and get approximately 7 CGPA? What is the average package I can get?

SM
Subhankar Mitra Posted On : August 14th, 2023
studied at National Institute of Technology, Rourkela

I don't think many companies even consider CGPA as the criteria for evaluating your eligibility to get placed. CSE students especially have to work on their coding and problem-solving skills more than their CGPA. I am not saying CGPA does not matter at all, what I mean is it's not the main criteria. You still need a good CGPA to qualify for the cutoffs set by companies. Most companies are okay with a decent 7 while some even let you sit with a CGPA around 6. Only a few government companies like CDOT and DRDO, set high cutoffs. The number of companies expecting a high CGPA is usually very low.

One of my friends at NIT Rourkela stated that there is no direct connection between your CGPA and the package you receive, rather it all depends on individual skills. If you are a CS student, bear in mind that your interviewer will expect good coding skills in any of the high-level programming languages like C/C++/Java, etc., a strong grasp of data structures and algorithms, basics of operating systems, and some fundamental theoretical concepts of database and networking. Such skills will overcome even your low CGPA. 

NIT Rourkela CSE average package 2023 stood at INR 21.87 LPA . So it can be said that as a NIT Rourkela student, if you have a CGPA of 7+ you will be eligible to sit for placements of most CS companies but your chances of selection depend on the skills you developed through the period of 4 years.

Which is better, NMIMS or IIT Mumbai for an MBA?

VA
Vivek Agarwal Posted On : February 27th, 2023
PGDM from T. A. Pai Management Institute (2019)

No doubt all the institutes you mentioned are excellent in their respective standards and fields. But the primary element that should be stressed before choosing a college is what kind of MBA you are looking for. You should determine the specialization you are willing to go for, the kind of curriculum and crowd you are expecting, and various other factors.

You need to keep in mind that an MBA degree will pose just as a stepping stone to success and cannot guarantee your success. The ultimate determining factor is the level of knowledge you gain and how you perform throughout.

All the Institutes you mentioned are top-notch and are globally recognized knowledge hubs. You cannot make a choice just on the basis of your preference. You will have to work tremendously hard to make it into these esteemed institutes.

Should I Join Thapar University (CSE) or take a drop to study CSE (B Tech) at IIT or BITS Pilani ?

AR
Aditi Roy Posted On : June 27th, 2023
lives in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, India

My brother completed his CSE at Thapar University. He was also planning to take a drop initially. But after doing a lot of research and consulting others, he decided to go to Thapar University. It is a prestigious and well-reputed institution.

My brother felt he couldn’t handle the pressure of entrances and preparation any longer. Besides, the placements at Thapar University are at par with other top institutions like PEC and ISM Dhanbad. Even the education system and reputation of Thapar University are good. 

According to my brother, if you have the courage and determination, you can take a drop and try for the IITs or BITS Pilani. But as far as Thapar University is concerned, it has a good infrastructure, good facilities, and amazing seniors. It is better than most NITs (barring a few) and also has a strong alumni network. Therefore, you won’t regret joining Thapar University for your CSE.

Which is a better university: GITAM or Vignan?

SK
Shakuntala Kochiyil Posted On : September 9th, 2021
Studied Computer Science Engineering at Vignan University (2019)

Among GITAM and Vignan, the former is a better option. GITAM is far better than any private college in Andhra Pradesh. The course fee is high but the quality of education and the culture on campus make up for it. Along with theoretical knowledge, you will get to learn the practical aspects of each subject. 

The placement record for the institute is great. In 2021, the highest CTC offered in the placement drive was 19 LPA. 

If you are interested in CSE and have a flair for coding then GITAM will be the better option.
