What is it like to graduate from DCE/DTU?
As a graduate of DTU, my sister feels surreal reminiscing about her time at the college. College life is lively and you are always busy with something. There ain’t any compulsion to attend classes and you can get involved in a lot of extracurriculars in addition to enjoying the beauty of the campus. She was amazed by the quality of her peers and loved spending time with intellectual people.
The college days are a blend of good and bad experiences. Even the bad experiences have goodness behind them and you are well aware of this and that’s what makes you proud of being a part of this institute. You strive hard to survive and leave with great life lessons, real knowledge, and plentiful skills.
The reality hits you when your last semester exams end and you wait for your job to start. You realize that you won’t ever be able to meet such people and make such memories again. Soon, you get busy with your new life and make new friends. Ghr occasional meet-ups with old friends make you nostalgic but you are able to move on.
After a few years, you realize that because of your initial struggles and what DTU made you, you can now live a comfortable life. You see the thin line between IITians and Non-IITians fading away into oblivion and feel proud of your college. You keep climbing the ladder higher and achieving great heights. Eventually, you adapt yourself to your new life and the occasional talks about DTU fill your heart with warm memories.
Which one is better: IIM Indore or IIM Lucknow?
IIM Lucknow has better ranking and placements compared to IIM Indore.
- It is an older IIM and has a huge alumni base spread across industries and geographies. Hence it has better recognition in the industry.
- IIM Lucknow has a smaller batch size compared to IIM Indore. Due to the small batch size, it’s easier for the institute to offer better salary packages and profiles to students.
- IIM Lucknow placements are better compared to IIM Indore. The 2022 placement drive of IIM I ended with an average CTC of INR 31 LPA. While the highest CTC offered was INR 61 LPA.
Both IIMs offer similar ROI.
What is your experience as an intern at AIIMS Delhi?
The life of an intern at AIIMS Delhi is full of freedom both in terms of study as well as hostel life. It’s up to you to attend the rounds, workup cases, or do no work and just study for your PG. No one will bother you either way. The least you will be expected will be to attend the OPDs and attend rounds. But if you are genuinely interested in learning, they will gladly teach you everything.
You won’t be forced to do any clerical work or get reports/type discharges/ do other work. They let you experience an internship in the true sense of what it is, a phase to learn and not to work.
However, when you are given the charge of certain things you learn to manage and take the lead. It’s then that the work of Doctor resonates in you. The internship experience at AIIMS Delhi leaves you with a lot of new learning msg and your personal growth as a man of opinions and humbleness
Which is better in terms of placements KIIT SRM or UPES?
KIIT, SRM, and UPES are some of the best private colleges in India. Placement statistics change for every college according to year and branch. I am a B.Tech CSE student and therefore, my answer will talk especially about the CSE branch.
In KIIT, around 90% of the students get placed as the placement season starts. Companies mostly require a 6-6.5 CGPA and the cutoffs can go to maximum 7.5 CGPA for some companies. A 6-pointer may end up with a better job than a 9-pointer because of skills. The placement scenario is good.
KIIT is better among the three for placements because it has an E-cell or Entrepreneurship Cell which is not present in the other two colleges. Over there, an internship camp is organized in which the students can get an internship in their field of interest, in different companies.
SRM- In SRM, there is a system of mass recruitment and most students get placed. Mass recruitment companies recruit students in large numbers with an average package of around INR 4.5 LPA. If you study hard, practice coding, are strong in aptitude, database, etc., you can get a package of INR 5-6LPA.
UPES- CSE branch, the placement percentage is around 90%. However, the number of companies that visit UPES is limited. IBM is a big company and offers the maximum placements. Amazon, Wipro, Dell, Flipkart, and others also visit the campus for placements.
Thus, because of its Entrepreneurship Cell and Internship camp, I would suggest that KIIT has the best placements out of the three. However, placements at SRM and UPES are also quite good and the placement figures for all three are at par.

Which one should I prefer, AIIMS Mangalagiri or Gandhi/Osmania Medical College?
Gandhi Medical College and Osmania Medical Colleges are both funded by the state government. The facilities and resources might be limited. Whereas, AIIMS Mangalgiri is recognized as an “Institution of National Importance” and is funded by the Government of India.
AIIMS Mangalagiri has well-experienced faculty who are highly qualified and recognized in their respective fields. JIPMER handles the faculty requirement at AIIMS Mangagalgiri. Although the institution has a temporary campus at Government Siddhartha Medical College, Vijayawada. Now, the campus has shifted to the newly constructed campus. The intake at AIIMS Mangalgiri is 125 seats annually for MBBS. Students willing to seek admission at AIIMS Mangalagiri must secure the required cutoff marks in their respective entrance exams. Despite the admission at AIIMS Mangalagiri being highly competitive, the institute offers admission to PG courses twice a year. As a result, students wanting to pursue higher studies such as MD/MS or DM / M.Ch can apply twice a year through INI CET i.e., INI CET January Session or INI CET July Session.
The fees at AIIMS Mangalgiri are comparatively less than any other medical institute. In regards to academics. Students joining AIIMS Mangalagiri are offered with excellent medical curriculum as per AIIMS standards. The institute also offers various facilities such as a Guest House, Indoor & Outdoor Sports Facilities, Community Halls, Gym, Dining Area, Hostels, Library, Laboratories and VIP Lounges.
Although the AIIMS Mangalagiri campus was recently constructed, students are not deprived of any resources and facilities. Overall, the choice of medical education is dependent on individual preferences. However, AIIMS Mangalagiri is one of the premier institutes and will not disappoint the expectations of the students.
How did you prepare for signal and systems for the GATE?
While there is no set rule for preparing for the signal and systems module of GATE, there are usually two routes or a combination of both that is advised to students. You can either focus on theoretical books and samples like Julius O Smith to study or you can follow online learning tutorials like Edx open software to get clear concepts.
Preparation Tips:
-
To begin with, students must always have an in-depth understanding of the foundation subjects. This means starting your study module from between will only cause you to have unclear concepts. It is an exceptionally important topic, and hence students must focus on understanding the concept of Impulse Response and Convolution.
-
Learn the impact of shifting and scaling operations on the waveform to understand continuous and discrete-time signals.
-
For problem-solving questions, it is important to focus on Properties of transforms, analysis and synthesis equations, and common transform pairs. If you have the time, try to learn about all the properties since it can be asked as a direct question.
-
The Fourier transform and Laplace transform are two very important concepts that can contribute to higher marks because of its direct approach.
-
Students must also study the final value and initial value theorem with stability verification.
-
The idea of stability and causality in Z Transform and Laplace can be very scoring if system properties need to be identified from the pole-zero plot.
-
Students can also practice drawing two separate types of waveforms keeping sampling frequency and Nyquist frequency in mind. The concepts of Nyquist Rate, Nyquist Frequency, and Band-Pass sampling theorem are all incredibly important.
Study Material:
For practicing and learning materials students can find the following.
-
Main Text Book by Schaum series
-
Signal Systems by Prof SC Dutta Roy or Oppenheim
-
Kreatryx Practice Question booklets
-
GATE questions from previous years
Signals & Systems has the highest weightage of marks and so it can easily become a high-scoring subject if prepared well. Practicing a large number of problems while understanding core concepts is mandatory to get a score in the subject.
Keeping these points in mind will surely help students in getting a good score in signals and systems for GATE.

Why does NSIT not advertise its placement stats?
A college does not need advertisements for improving its brand value and worth. A good institute is recognizable by the quality of students and placements it offers. I feel NSUT being a prestigious institute already felt no need to advertise its placement stats and attract an unnecessary crowd. It believes in quality over quantity and thus takes in only the best.
Institutes like DTU have to prove their worth and thus measures like advertising are undertaken. Earlier it was a central university college and now it has become an autonomous state university. Everyone was against this change so the institute deserve to preserve the brand value by publishing high-end advertisements.
So whether a college advertises its placement statistics or not depends on whether the institute needs to attract the public or the brand value is more than enough to attract the students.
