Which IIT should I choose: IIT Mumbai or IIT Ropar considering and why?
Given a chance between IIT Bombay and IIT Ropar, you should definitely go for the former. It is currently ranked higher than IIT Ropar. NIRF 2021 has ranked it 3 for B.Tech.
IIT Bombay is constantly ranked among the top engineering colleges in the nation. It is the favorite destination for almost all the JEE aspirants. IIT Bombay cutoff trends also indicate the same. You will need to score under 100 in JEE Advanced to get a seat at IIT Bombay.
Why do students from NSIT, DTU, IIIT A, IIITD and MNNIT perform well in SPOJ, CodeChef, and Codeforces even though NIT Trichy, Warangal, and Surathkal have much better ranked students?
Competitive coding has nothing to do with the JEE curriculum. So someone’s coding skill does not depend on their JEE rank. At least not until coding becomes a part of JEE syllabus.
Coding depends a lot on the environment of the institute. Environment plays a major role in making students do certain things. IIITA has a great coding culture. Which makes everyone have a go at coding. It’s the culture that provokes you to start competitive programming early. You will not find that kind of coding culture at most NITs.

Which is the best branch/department at AIIMS Delhi to pursue MD/MS in?
The best branch/department to pursue MD/MS in at AlIMS Delhi is highly subjective and can vary depending on your personal interests and career goals. However, some of the top departments at AlIMS Delhi include:
- Department of Anatomy
- Department of Biochemistry
- Department of Pharmacology
- Department of Microbiology
- Department of Forensic Medicine
In addition to these, AIIMS has a separate dedicated center for Ophthalmology, RP Centre. For those interested in Ophthalmology, this department is the best place for you. The credibility of this department can be proved by the fact that Prof L P Agarwal, the founder director and first Chief of RP Centre was the one who laid down the foundation for the National Program for Control of Blindness. Amazingly enough, India was the first country to launch such a program.
One of my friends told me that while preparing for the PG exams, all the textbook cases she came across were similar to the cases she dealt with in her residency. This helps us to relate and makes the learning process easier.
The academic focus is intense with academic rounds twice a week. During these rounds, e important topics including the latest research are discussed by consultants. These discussions play a vital role in exams.
The first surgical experience at RP Centre, AIIMS, takes place by the end of the first semester. It is an extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE) under the supervision of a senior resident. After doing a couple of those, you get to perform your first suture-less cataract surgery s in the second semester.
The department has the finest infrastructure and lab facilities with modern microscopes, and machines
Ultimately, the best branch depends on your personal preferences. At the end though, the best branch/department depends upon one's personal choice.
