The primary thing to focus on while at IIM Ahmedabad or any other B School is the journey and not the end. Don’t start your college with the job as the end result. Upgrade your mindset. College is much more than just placements and jobs.

College life is about life struggles, a lot of knowledge, knowing your own self, finding your area or interests and pursuing your passion. So I would say to make the most of the B School, keep the thoughts of your future job aside and adopt a nature of learning new things every day.

Make the most of the liberal days in your life because once you start working your freedom will be restricted.

The college life at IIIT Vadodara is very exciting. It does not involve only academics like other colleges but provides a blend of academics and co-curricular activities to all the students with comfortable surroundings.

• Unlike other colleges, the academic pressure is less on students and normally the classes are from 8.30 a.m. to 5.30 p.m. This gives various opportunities to students to pursue their interests in many other fields as well.
• Normally, it is seen that students are overburdened by the assignments and other projects but the teachers at IIIT Vadodara give proper time to students to submit their assignments or any other related projects.
• There are various clubs and societies in the college like literary club, music club, dramatic society, gaming club, photography club, and even especially designed coding club.
• The hostel life is very exciting for the students. Though there is little shortage of basic amenities students manage to get them by nearby shops.
• A hostel is a place where they develop never-ending bonds with helping seniors or batchmates and create innumerable memories that they could cherish for their entire life ahead.

If you get a chance for admission to IIIT Vadodara, do not miss it. It is really worth spending the entire four years of your life here.

My brother completed his B.Tech first year at NIT Warangal. These are his views about NITW-

1. Hostels- Boys hostels at NIT Warangal are well-maintained. The new girls' hostels are good but the old ones, Sarojini Hall and Priyadarshini Hall, need improvement. For first-year girl students, a single room is shared by four individuals and you will be allotted a room in Sarojini Hall. For first-year boys, the room is shared by two students. First-year students have a hostel curfew of 9 p.m. which is extended to 11 p.m. for seniors. Girls and boys are not allowed into each other’s hostels. You may not find the campus gender-neutral.
2. Sports and Extracurriculars- You will find all the equipment for sports and extracurricular activities. The campus will provide you with all the facilities. But in terms of encouragement for the same, there is none. You can pursue extracurriculars for your all around development.
3. Studies- NIT Warangal is known for its academic excellence. The faculty over there is good and the labs have all the necessary equipment.
4. Placements- NIT Warangal offers good placements, requiring that you maintain a good CGPA. 

NITW offers you a good experience along with a bright future. You will get all the growth opportunities at NIT Warangal.

The mess food is of everywhere quality and not worth the fees they charge. the situation in most places. On any typical day at NIT Srinagar the menu looks like this

• Breakfast: Bread Pakoda and Tea
• Lunch: Rice, Chapati, Aloo Matar, Chola Dal and Salad
• Veg Dinner: Rice, Roti, Shahi Paneer and Arhar Dal
• Non-veg Dinner: Rice, Roti, Chicken and Arhar Dal

Non-veg dinner is not served on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Evening Tea is served with a pack of Biscuits or Samosa. Overall the taste and fees charge us better than most NITs. Moreover, mess here in NIT Srinagar provides both rice and roti, but most NITs provide only one of them.

IIT Madras has excellent gym facilities and is a savior for health freaks. You can find all weight training equipment not available even in the local gyms. Some highlights of the gym at IIT Madras are

• The gym has no treadmills but one can make use of the synthetic track to run.
• A wide range of weights is available for both beginners and experts. Beginners might face some problems getting the required weight but once you reach 10+ kgs, it’s free.
• There are 3 trainers to guide you who are quite good at what they do. 
• The timings of the gym are from early morning to late night.
• There is a separate girls' facility where boys are strictly prohibited to enter.
• The ambiance is decent and you can always ask for help from your seniors though some might intimidate you. 

As a beginner, decide on a fixed workout plan and work on it daily and you will feel the difference.

IMT Ghaziabad’s campus life is quite a rigorous and dynamic one. You enter the college all naive and unaware and leave the college as one of the most confident and informed people. They nourish you and make you industry ready.

To get a clearer experience of life at IMT Ghaziabad, I have explained in detail the term-wise experience of my cousin who recently passed out of this college.

First term: Right when you join the college, you will have to sit for interviews to get into various companies, attend classes, attend Personality Development Programs, and do various other assignments. All this will make you extremely busy during the initial months. The term ends with Final Exams which are the most difficult. You can get help from committees that arrange examination sessions.

Second Term: The rigor only increases in the second term. Apart from the regular classes and assignments you now have to get involved in various events held by the committees. You will have to contribute by getting sponsorship for the committee, designing the concept of the event, marketing the event, getting participation, etc. Once the event has been successfully wound up, you can enjoy the IMT Committee parties which are real stress boosters. This term too ends with Final Exams which are the climax of stress and hard work.

Third Term: While many may think that after 2 hectic terms, you will now get accustomed to the rigorous, and the third term may seem a bit less stressful, you are wrong. This term is the most stressful period of the first term owing to the Summer Placements. You have to constantly prepare for placements and the campus is unusually busy and everyone is working hard. During the placement week, the companies visit, and most of the students who get placed are relaxed. Yet the ones who fail to get placed keep preparing as some companies visit after the placement week also. This term also witnessed another round of commuter events which because of clashing with placements are a real challenge. Students somehow manage both together. This term is famous for the great entertainment Management event Passion organized by SAWC and the Cultural Committee. The event ends with a freshers' party and the term ends with Final exams yet again.

Fourth Term: This is the most relaxing term as you are now over with the placements and events. The electives are also fewer and everything sails smoothly. You can relax and prepare well for your internship.

This is how a typical year passes at IMT Ghaziabad.

By choosing FMS Delhi do you mean just choosing FMS or choosing FMS over other top B Schools like IIMs? The answer remains the same for both. People who choose FMS over other B Schools are aware of the certain advantages that cannot be availed at any other B School.

One of my cousins wrote the CAT in 2018 and got selected in almost all the B Schools other than IIM Calcutta. She was overwhelmed yet she had no dream school in mind. That’s when she started inquiring about FMS. She reached out to alumni of top B-schools and mentors. She also asked herself questions like

• What do I want from a B-school? ( Placement opportunities, campus life, exchange programs, etc..) 
• What are my priorities?
• What would I wish to do after 10 years?
• How am I going to fund my B-school education?
• What do I seek from a corporate job in the future?

Once she had the answers to these questions in her mind, she knew FMS would be best for her. The excellent placements with the lowest fees were too good an opportunity to miss. FMS also gives the freedom to choose and pursue anything going further. 

When people choose FMS over other IIMs it’s not because it’s better than them. It’s because it suits their needs best. So choose what is best for you, not best for everyone. Don’t fall into the trap of rankings and let your decision be fueled by them.

CMC Vellore's college life is rigorous and challenging, with a strong emphasis on academics. However, there are also a variety of extracurricular activities and events that take place throughout the year, such as cultural and sports fests, as well as clubs and societies that students can join. These can provide a fun and engaging way to get involved in the campus community and connect with other students. You will witness an amazing family-like bond between seniors and juniors. 

Here are some major events that add to the vibrancy of campus life

• Batch and inter-batch prayers
• Batch retreats
• Batch parties
• Batch thanksgiving
• Sister batch picnics 
• Hostel days

You will be amazed by the lush green campus surrounded by hills. The picturesque view is worth spending time here. One unique aspect of the college is that the hostels are run by the students themselves. There is a special governing body comprising hostelers that conducts meetings to discuss important agendas like weekly menus and address the complaints lodged by the students.

Overall, CMC Vellore has a very dynamic campus life!
