Which should I choose and why? IIT Bhubaneswar (5 year dual degree in mech.eng.) or BITS Pilani,Pilani for electronics and instrumentation?
I would say choosing 5 years dual degree in Mechanical Engineering from IIT Bhubaneswar is a better option than BITS Pilani for electronics and instrumentation.
- IIT Bhubaneswar is known for its academic standards and it is a government-run institution whereas BITS Pilani is a privately run institution.
- IIt Bhubaneswar offers great opportunities for the student to excel in both academic and research work with their extensive academic curriculums.
- The placement records for the department were excellent in 2023 with 82% of the students being placed and having a median package of INR 12 LPA.
- Some of the top recruiters were Google, Amazon, Microsoft and more
Does the EWS quota make much difference in FMS or IIM Calcutta?
The EWS quota makes a slight difference in your chances of getting into FMS or IIM Calcutta. It is not the major factor that determines your eligibility. Some major parameters that are considered are:
-
CAT score
-
10 and 12 marks
-
Graduation score
-
Work Experience
A good past record with 99 CAT score will increase your chances of getting into IIM Calcutta. Study hard for the CAT exam as the competition is very tough.
So rather than focusing on minor factors like EWS, focus more on your preparation.
Is there any sports quota for admission in IIM, Indore (Integrated MBA)?
No, IIM Indore does not have any sports quota for its IPM admissions. A candidate is shortlisted based on his/her previous academic performance, entrance (aptitude) score and interview score. The only quota in place is the conventional reservation quota (for SC, ST, OBC, PwD candidates).
