If unluckily I would get less than 60% in 12 boards but I have already got EEE branch in KIIT during KIIT Counselling, then will I get admission there?

A
Admin Posted On : February 15th, 2024

You’ll get an admission at KIIT. You don’t need to worry on that front. But the main issue is regarding placements. Most IT and core companies have an eligibility requirement of 60% or more in 10th and 12th boards. Though some companies don’t have a strict minimum requirement. 

But the point is, if you want to sit for a good number of companies during placements, you’ll need at least 60% in your 12th boards. This does not apply only to KIIT, but every university/college.

The minimum qualifying score for admission to IET Lucknow through the Uttar Pradesh State Entrance Examination (UPSEE) is determined by the cutoff marks set by the institute. The cutoff marks are determined based on various factors such as the number of applicants, the difficulty level of the exam, and the number of seats available.

It is difficult to predict whether you can get admission to IET Lucknow with a score of 360 in UPSEE as the cutoff marks for each year may vary.

Which is better, NIT Trichy CSE or NITK Suratkal CSE, considering academics, campus and college life?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : July 24th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

Although both NIT Trichy and NIT Surathkal give constant edge to each other it’s NIT Trichy that has a slight advantage over the latter. However, the difference in the institutes is based on certain parameters.

Academics-wise, NIT Trichy is better as it attracts a better crowd of both students as well as recruiters. 

But when it comes to campus life, NIT Surathkal overtakes NIT Trichy easily. NIT Trichy faces a disadvantage due to its location and extremely hot climate while NIT Surathkal has a pleasant climate and a more relaxing campus life. They also have a private beach and the institute is in close proximity to Manipal and Mangalore. Although college life varies from person to person, the fact that you will be enjoying your life better at NIT Surathkal cannot be overlooked. NIT Trichy has a huge campus but the hot climate makes things worse here. 

In all, if you give more preference to academics choose NIT Trichy but if you value a good campus life equally then NIT Surathkal seems to be better for you.

Studied Political Science and International Relations at Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) (Graduated 2014)

 Remember that degrees earned through any mode, such as regular, evening classes, correspondence, or private, from any university recognized by the University Grants Commission (UGC), are valid and equivalent to any government job. This means that regardless of the method by which you earned your degree, it will be considered valid as long as it was obtained from a UGC-recognized university.

If you are pursuing a degree through distance education, it is important to ensure that the program is recognized by both the UGC and the Distance Education Council (DEC). The DEC is controlled by Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), so you can be confident in the validity of your distance education degree if it is from IGNOU. The video further talks about the validity of Distance Education

In summary, it is crucial for you to ensure that your degree is from a UGC-recognized university, regardless of the mode of education. Additionally, if you are pursuing a degree through distance education, make sure that it is recognized by both the UGC and DEC, with IGNOU being a reliable option. By ensuring that your degree meets these requirements, you can feel confident in pursuing a government job with your degree.

How much mark should I score in IPMAT to ensure my admission to IIM-INDORE'S IPM?

KM
Karuna Mehta Posted On : February 1st, 2024
MBA from Indian Institute of Management Indore (2020)

IIM Indore uses a holistic approach to select candidates for its courses. So there’s no minimum score in IPMAT that can guarantee a call. For final selection, the IPMAT score, past academic record, work experience (if any) and interview performance of a candidate are all given weightage. 

Aim for the best results in IPMAT, but keep in mind that these scores won’t solely get you a seat into IIM Indore. The competition is quite high, so try to score as good as possible, and leave no stone unturned. 

Instead of focusing on a particular score, make it your goal to perform your level best in the IPMAT. You can check the previous year IPMAT (overall and section-wise cutoffs) to get a basic idea of the minimum requirement.
