Is it possible to get direct admission in DAIICT gandhi nagar with 58% of marks in 12th board..?
It is unclear as to what direct admission means. If you mean without JEE Main, then I don’t think it’s possible. DAIICT admission is done on the basis of scores in JEE Main or GUJCET. The admission process is conducted on two levels -
- All India Level: JEE Main Scores
- Gujarat State Level: For the Gujarat category, the candidates have to apply through ACPC.
As far as the 12th percentage is concerned, I don’t think there is any fixed percentage so you might get admission with 58% marks.
Is IET, Ahmedabad University really competing with DAIICT?
Currently, DAIICT is definitely better than IET, Ahmedabad. It is well-developed and offers a competitive environment to the students. Whereas, IET is still in its development phase.
Although IET has made great strides over the past few years, it will have time for it to be on the same level as DAIICT. For ICT, the best colleges in Gujarat are DA-IICT, IET, PDPU.
Which is better, NIT Raipur CSE or DAIICT ICT?
A few of my friends pursued CSE at NIT Raipur and DA-IICT, and here are some tips for you, based on their experience.
DA-IICT is a better choice and the reasons are as follows.
- Faculty- The faculty members are good who teach very well.
- Course curriculum- The campus offers great coding culture and a unique course structure that emphasizes programming from the beginning of the course.
- You get the option to pursue an honors degree in Computational Science that offers unique courses like High-performance computing, computational finance, etc. This gives an edge over computer science students.
- Placements- DA-IICT has 100% placement. The average salary packages are INR 10 LPA and the highest salary package offered was INR 40 LPA.
However, at the NITs, you have to study Physics and Chemistry again and subjects like Engineering Drawing that have no relevance with Computer Science as the first year are common amongst all branches. Only the top three NITs- NIT Trichy, NIT Warangal, and NIT Surathkal are better than DA-IICT.
Which is a better option, DAIICT or mining at NIT Surathkal?
DAIICT is a better option compared to NAIT Surathkal Mining. It offers better placements in comparison. Here are the placement highlights for 2022.
| Parameters | Statistics (2022) |
| Average CTC | INR 16.06 LPA |
| Highest CTC | INR 54.22 LPA |

Between IIIT Allahabad, IIIT Delhi, DTU, NSIT, DAIICT, NIT Calicut, which college should I choose for pursuing CS ?
My cousin graduated from DTU in CS. According to him, these institutions can be ranked for CS in the following order-
- DTU
- NIT Calicut
- IIIT Allahabad
- NSIT (now NSUT)
- IIIT Delhi
- DAIICT
DTU is considered one of the best Indian institutions for CS. Therefore, you should go for DTU if you get the opportunity. Every technical society at DTU, be it IEEE, ASME, CSI, IET, or even the small ones, gives great value to coding competitions. Thus, coding classes and competitions are held on a regular basis.
For those who want to work on real-use-productive coding instead of passive-competitive coding, there are many opportunities at DTU. DTU has several societies, and there are student entrepreneurs who are always in dire need of talented coders.
DTU also has a locational advantage. Being situated in the capital of India, it offers students great opportunities and exposure, not just industrial but of all types. Gurgaon is the IT hub and since you will spend 4 years of student life in Delhi, if you land a job in Gurgaon after graduating, you will have been accustomed to the region by that time.
The seniors at DTU are helpful and there is a strict anti-ragging policy on campus. The faculty consists of learned and helpful professors. The non-tech placements are also quite good at DTU.
DTU has huge brand value, long-standing history, and it is the mother of a lot of great colleges.
NIT Calicut is a good choice as well because it has a good placement record and an impressive infrastructure. In terms of location, however, DTU, NSUT, and IIIT Delhi are at an advantage.
You can consider all the above factors and finally decide which of these institutions is the right choice for you to pursue your CS.
