Should one specialize in HR from IIM Ahmedabad?

AS
Aishwarya Sinha Posted On : November 15th, 2022
PwC India | RBS | SAC - XLRI | ABG Scholar Nominee

Although IIM Ahmedabad is not the best HR campus, it is the best in its class. Furthermore, it is believed that the 'Specialization' thing should not be dependent on the institute, but rather on what a person sees their career as being in. Choose wisely, regardless of the institute, because you will have to live with it for many years.

IIM Ahmedabad does not offer an HR specialization. However, you can always add more HR electives to your PGP program in the second year to help your cause. If you are certain that you want to work in human resources, apply to XLRI or TISS. They offer the best HRM education in India.

Which institute is better, VIT, vellore or Nit Jalandhar?

AT
Aryan Thakur Posted On : January 5th, 2023
Studied at Dr. B. R. Ambedkar National Institute of Technology, Jalandhar ( NITJ )

In most cases, you can find decent placement in core companies at VIT, Vellore. College life is fantastic if you have great companions. You have plenty of free time and opportunities to grow, but it is up to you to take the initiative.

Whereas NIT Jalandhar allows you to customize the courses you want to study each semester with some limitations. Students are given less autonomy. Go for it if you can get a core branch in VIT, Vellore. After graduation, you can have a good placement and brand value.

Riddhi Mukherjee Posted On : May 7th, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Arunachal Pradesh (2019)

My colleague did his B.Tech from NIT AP and here are the insights he shared with me about NIT Arunachal Pradesh

PROS:

Placement: In 2020, the placement rate of NIT Arunachal Pradesh was 38.53% placement as 42 out of 117 students got placed under different sectors of the industry. 

  • The highest package offered was INR. 12 LPA. 
  • The average package offered was INR. 6.2 LPA. 
  • Some of the top recruiters who visited the campus were Capgemini, Infosys, L&T Constructions, Cognizant, Vedanta, CGI, KEC International, etc.
  • Ragging: NIT has an anti-ragging environment. Seniors are in fact very helpful and friendly.
  • Faculty: Professors at NIT are average as they lack knowledge and qualifications but they are very student-friendly and keen to help you.
  • Internet connectivity: The campus is equipped with unlimited high-quality Wi-Fi.

CONS:

  • Infrastructure: The campus is small and not at all student-friendly.
  • Facilities: Labs and other facilities are not satisfactory.

So, if you just need a degree you can join NIT Arunachal Pradesh but if you are looking for a college with high facilities like campus, labs, etc then there are colleges better than NIT AP.

Where should I buy Delhi University books?

TR
Tanya Rai Posted On : September 23rd, 2021
B.A. Honours Literature in English, University of Delhi (2016)

To get the desired books for semester one at Delhi University, you must make a list of books that are required for that specific semester.

You can get the required books from the library but sometimes those books are not available in the library then it is a better option to get the books from the market as they can be reused always and there will be no need to return them within time as per the library rules. 

Now talking about where to buy the books from, you can buy them from mypustak.com and they deliver the books to your doorstep with no extra charges and only minimum shipping.

Should I do my MBBS from an above average government college or one of the best private college (KMC Manipal)?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : September 30th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

As a student of KMC Manipal, I will list down some reasons for choosing this college-

  1. The quality of education at KMC Manipal is at par with other top medical colleges of India.
  2. It has a very good infrastructure, even better than PGI which is an elite institution.
  3. You’ll get studious peers and dedicated faculty over here. Other than the curriculum, you’ll also be taught about all the latest developments in medicine.
  4. You’ll get good clinical exposure.
  5. KMC Manipal encourages undergraduate research. You can publish papers as a UG student too.
  6. The college has good foreign exchange programs.
  7. Your seniors will guide you on USMLE and PLAB. 
  8. The coursework and teaching methodology is top-notch. With proper attention in class and routine revisions, you can get into AIIMS for your PG. Even for coaching, DAMS and Bhatia Classes are available near the campus. They hold weekend classes so your college studies won’t be affected.
  9. The college and hospital are quite safe. The classrooms and hostels are filled with all the facilities. Extracurriculars form an important part of campus life.
  10. The college is very strict regarding attendance, so you’ll grow into a disciplined doctor.
  11. Unlike many government colleges, KMC Manipal doesn’t have a rural service bond.

But there are some disadvantages too-

Manipal is very expensive, and the PG seats are even more expensive. Getting a PG seat is very difficult because of extremely high competition.

You should choose KMC Manipal over an above average government college. But make sure you are fine with the above listed disadvantages.

Why is IIM Indore not so preferred as IIM Kozhikode even when both were established in the same academic year?

PP
Pragya Pathak Posted On : August 20th, 2021
Completed PGDM in Finance & Strategy, IIM Kozhikode (2020)

The reason why IIM Kozhikode is given more preference by candidates is due to the size of the batch. The Mumbai campus was started by IIM Indore and the placement process of both institutes is carried out at the same time. Both are among the top ten business schools in India.

The following data shows how the two institutions can go head to head:

Categories IIM Kozhikode IIM Indore
Admission Criteria CAT/GMAT CAT/GMAT
Seats Available 375 450
Average CTC 18 LPA 19 LPA
Highest CTC 35 LPA 34 LPA
Top Recruiting Sector Consulting Finance

Notable companies that are regular visitors of IIM Kozhikode and IIM Indore are American Express, ICICI Banks, Bosch, Amazon, Indigo, etc.

How is UEM, Rajarhat? Is it safe to join?

NB
Neelanjana Bose Posted On : May 19th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering, University of Engineering and Management, Kolkata (2020)

I have a few friends who are alumni of UEM, Rajarhat and they don’t recommend the institute.

  • UEM mostly gives admission through management quota. The college takes admission with WBJEE scores up to 80,000. 
  • Most of the students get placement in IT companies as it is set up by the IEM group. The average CTC of the college is around 4 LPA

But IEM has its own college in Kolkata which is far more reputed than UEM. UEM Jaipur campus is also great for engineering. UEM Kolkata does have the potential to become as good as the Jaipur campus with time. But as of now, it is not that great.
