How much valuable are the certification courses of NSE BSE NISM?

AD
Aravind Das, Posted On : October 29th, 2021
MBA in Accounting & Finance, Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India (2010)

The certifications provided by NISM, NSE, and BSE are for educational purposes. They are valuable in the sense that it confirms your awareness about the particular segment.

Example: If you have cleared the NISM Series VIII exam, then it shows that you have enough knowledge about the equity derivatives segment and are qualified to be a dealer. But that is the extent of the matter. It does not certify that you know everything about equity derivatives.

  • They are mainly useful to develop functional knowledge about stock markets in India. 
  • It increases your understanding of how the markets work and hence improves your knowledge.
  • These certifications are only useful for regulatory compliance purposes.

Like every course, it will teach you all the basics that you need to know. It will open up a lot of options. But practical knowledge and experience are always valued more than certificates.

ME in Machine Learning & Data Science, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore (IISc) (Graduated 2015)

How did you get an internship offer from IIT Bombay?

AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : March 18th, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

Before securing an internship, you need to analyze some points that will make the process easier. Work on these and then embark on your journey to work as an intern.

  • Why should I do an internship?
  • What internship should I do?
  • Where to search for an Internship and how to proceed?
  • What are the prerequisites? What should I have? A good SOP? A good CV?
  • What is a good Statement of Purpose and How to make it? How to make a good resume?
  • When should I start to search for an Internship for Institute and Well-known Companies?

Only once you are clear with these points, should you proceed to look for an internship.

Now, IIT Bombay has 2 main ways to offer internships to its students.

  1. Ekalavya Internship Program **EKALAVYA HOME Page (EKALAVYA HOME Page)
  2. By mailing to the professor of your field of interest.

Ekalavya Internship Program:

Suitability: This is most suitable for those who are completing the 3rd year only. However, it may also be suitable for 2nd-year students with exceptionally good academic performance.

Procedure: 

  1. Apply for the internship.
  2. If you get selected for the first round., you will have to wait for the second round
  3. The second round is an Online Test. Take help from seniors during preparing for this round. 
  4. You get selected finally once you clear their second round.

Write an email to the professor

This may sound like an ineffective technique to get an internship when in reality it’s the most under-rated, under-used tool for grabbing an internship abroad. But one must keep in mind that this method is not definitely easy as it depends on a number of factors. I have mentioned some tips that will help you get a clear picture of how to get an internship by writing an email to your professor.

  • Don't lose hope after one or two emails go rejected 
  • Don't contact two professors in the same department
  • Be specific about the area you want to intern in
  • Start your internship hunting early
  • Target the right country

I hope my answer helped get a good idea on how to get an internship offer at IIT Bombay.

My son got rank 3903 in JEE Advanced. We have secured admission in IIIT Bangalore in Imtech (CS). What are some opinions whether to opt for available branches in IIT or continue with IIIT Bangalore?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : October 10th, 2023

The choice mainly depends on your son’s interest field. But I’m assuming his interest lies in CSE. 

In that case, IIIT Bangalore is a great place to nurture his ambitions and goals. He will be groomed to become the best IT/Research professional through this college. The research faculty and exposure are both top-notch for UG students at IIIT Bangalore. 

The course curriculum gives great importance to practical knowledge. For this reason, he’ll get good projects under the mentorship of experienced faculty/ imminent corporate leaders. 

The college is located in the IT hub, and M.Tech is its flagship program. Your son will be exposed to a diverse crowd on campus. He’ll get to intern twice during the course of 5 years. Through these internships, he’ll be exposed to top industry professionals. He may also get the opportunity to work with research professionals from the best US colleges. 

The seniors and faculty of IIIT Bangalore greatly encourage research attitudes among juniors. During placement season, M.Tech students receive high-paying job offers. 

IIIT Bangalore is a great option if your son is interested in CSE. In this case, you should not run after the IIT tag.

What is the placement scenario and scope of the IIM PGP Agri Business Management (ABM) program in general and with special reference to IIM Lucknow?

SC
Shubham Chauhan Posted On : February 8th, 2024

It depends on the other options available to you. ABM graduates are eligible for many of the marketing and operations jobs that normal PGP students are. Choosing an ABM at any of the top IIMs (including IIM Lucknow) is a better option than a general MBA from a tier 2 business school. Even if you take a drop for CAT, it will be a waste of your year. In an MBA, your college tag makes a big difference. In the long run, the IIM tag will benefit your corporate career a lot.

How can I get my original certificate of BA from IGNOU?

RS
Rishi Singh Shekhawat Posted On : October 18th, 2022
B.A Pol Sci & pub ad from Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU)

You should check with your local post office if they sent you the original certificate via Indian post. The original mark sheets/certificates are sent to the candidate at their registered address, but they may or may not reach the student. You have the following options available to you.

1. Visit a regional study center and inquire if they have your original certificate.

If they have it, they will issue you a certificate after the necessary formalities.

2. If not, go to IGNOU headquarters in Delhi (allow a couple of days before going, but staff members at Delhi HO are very helpful) and they will provide you with a duplicate copy of your mark sheet/certificate. 

3. When you visit the IGNOU headquarters in Delhi, try to obtain the dispatch number as well as other pertinent information and establish contact with the postal department.

Otherwise, with the above information, file an RTI regarding the status of delivery of your consignment as per the information received from IGNOU. Because you will face difficulties if you do not present original certificates at the time of admission/interview, make every effort to obtain the originals.

Which is better for an MTech: IIT Delhi or IIT Madras?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : July 17th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

One of my cousins was in a similar dilemma and she considered the following points before making her decision.

  • Placements-wise, IIT Delhi gives a slight edge to IIT Madras although as a whole the scenario is pretty much the same.
  • The campus ambiance and culture as a whole of IIT Madras are more driven toward individual personality development.
  • If you are planning to start your own business one day, IIT Madras is the right place for you. Its rich startup- culture focuses on inculcating entrepreneurial skills in the students.
  • IIT Madras campus has a better climate than outside the campus so most of the time you will be spending inside the campus. 

Although both the colleges have their unique strengths and weaknesses, IIT Madras seems to be a slightly better option than IIT Delhi especially if you are a nature lover !

What is wrong with thapar university patiala?

NS
Nidhi Sen Posted On : August 10th, 2021
B.Tech from Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology (2019)

My sister is a student at Thapar University and here are some of the things that she complains about.

  • The hike in tuition fees every year.
  • The increase in student intake, which in turn affects the quality of education. 
  • Over the years the placement records other than the CSE branch have declined.
  • The faculty base is also not that great. 
  • The cut-off is decreasing every year but it is the case in every college. Today, even with a score of 130 in JEE mains, one can make it to an NIT.

Overall, Thapar University is a decent college but certainly needs to improve a few things.
