Is a DU SOL degree valuable?
Yes, a degree from DU SOL is most certainly valuable. But it is recommended to pursue some other specialized course, as an SOL degree might put you in a difficult position while seeking job opportunities.
It is suitable for those who cannot attend classes due to their time invested in some other program. If you are too in such a position then it would be like a cherry on the cake.
You would most definitely be able to secure a job with SOL degree but preparing for other competitive exams, establishing a business, or practicing a professional course would turn out as a huge advantage, giving you an edge over other aspirants.
What was your IMI Delhi PGDM interview experience like?
I have written about the interview experience of my sister who appeared for the same last year.
She reached the venue and had registration and a brief introduction about IMI by a Sir.
After the introduction, the candidates were allotted a topic for WAT. She got the ‘current USP of the market: offers more for less'. She wrote well including points related to competition, and technology reach, and gave examples of Reliance Jio.
Next, they had document verification and were given the serial number for the interview. She was ushered into a room with 2 panelists, a lady and a man in their 50s. The panelists seemed friendly and asked her what the other candidates told her about them. After a friendly exchange, they enquired about her work. She was also asked to justify her low marks in class 12 to which she confidently replied that she was busy preparing for IIT JEE. They asked her about the things she liked to do in her leisure time and her passions. When she told them that one of them was cycling, they asked her about the biggest Cycle race. They asked a few more questions related to cycling to which she had nearly no answers.
The topic soon switched to pities and they asked her about Maharashtra and Delhi CM and the controversies related to the Delhi CM. This too could not be answered by her.
They further asked her about her home state and related questions. Her extempore topic was ‘What Narendra Modi can do to stop engineers going for MBA to support his Make in India.’ She spoke about how investments can be made from foreign investors and the process of initiating a startup should become easier to promote entrepreneurship.
Lastly, she was asked about the other offers she had and if she was considering them or not and why so. She ended the interview by stating viable reasons as to why she was determined to join IMI Delhi only.
What are the best courses to take in IIM Calcutta?
My brother is in IIM Calcutta and over the period of 2 years he has studied many valuable courses. But 3 of them top the list of his favorites.
-
Statistics for Management: Taught by Prof. Rahul Mukerjee, this course is a mandatory Term-I course. More than the subject itself it’s the professor that makes it an amazing experience. He is the recipient of many national awards and has taught all over the world at reputed universities like Harvard.
-
Options, Futures and Derivatives: IIM Calcutta is without a doubt the finance campus of India. The finance faculty is the best you can get and this course does justice to finance completely. It’s quite a tough subject based on derivatives and technical finance. But for a true finance lover, it’s the best. It is taught by Prof. Binay Bhushan Chakrabarti (BBC) who was the Gold Medalist of the Batch of 1980 from IIM Calcutta.
-
Management of Self: Another eye-catching course at IIM Calcutta is Management of Self taught by Prof. Leena Chatterjee. She is a motherly figure in college. This is the only course here that teaches you about nothing but your own self. It’s a sort of personality grooming course that requires you to take a few personality tests and write an autobiography. This course helps you get more familiar with yourself and overcome internal struggles. It’s a Term-V elective course.
Although all courses offered at IIM Calcutta have their own benefits, these 3 are among the best maybe because of the respective professors.

How good is the IIM Ahmedabad hostel?
I assume you are asking about the culture of IIM Ahmedabad hostels, and not their aesthetics.
The hostels at IIMA are excellent and filled with all the necessary facilities. They are referred to as dorms and not hostels, and 25-30 students live in each one of them. Dorm mates are very supportive towards each other.
They wake each other up for classes, help each other in preparing for quizzes, and genuinely care for each other. It feels relaxing to return back to the dorms after tiring classroom hours. Chatting and gossiping with dorm mates is always fun.
The hostel culture of IIMA is very warm, welcoming and friendly. The time spent over there is truly memorable.
In AFMC Pune, what is the schedule for MBBS students? What time do they get up, when do the lectures start, when is dinner? What is the routine there?
The schedule is quite busy, especially for final year cadets. But if you learn time management during your faccha term, you’ll manage everything with grace.

- Infrastructure: MNIT Jaipur has Asia’s largest lecture hall called VLTC. It also has a new Computer Center (CC) there which has 24/7 open computer labs. The labs are fully air-conditioned and have an excellent internet connection. There are 9 boys hostel and 2 girls hostel and the facilities are average.

The best part is that the Airport is just 15 minutes away from the college and the nearest station is also about 10 minutes away. The crowd is diverse and you will find students from all corners of the country.

- Academics: Like any other NIT, MBIT Jaipur has both extremely experienced and approachable professors as well as the least interested ones. However, its coding culture is not yet as good as other NITs. Not many students are involved in good projects and coding competitions.
- Placements: The institute had an excellent placement record over the past year. In 2022, the highest CTC stood at INR 64 LPA while the average CTC stood at INR 12.43 LPA. Some of the top recruiters included Adverb, Adobe, Airtel, Amazon, Analytics Quotient (Kantar), Apple, Arcesium, Bajaj Motors, BEL, BHEL, Box 8, BPCL, Capgemini, CommVault, Dassault Systems, Deloitte, etc
