Is Jadavpur University better than NIT Durgapur? If yes, which stream would be preferred?

RS
Raghav Saini Posted On : September 7th, 2023
B.Tech from National Institute of Technology Durgapur (2022)

Both the colleges have their pros and cons. Your choice of college should be based on branch. I did my Mechanical from NIT Durgapur and my friend did his Mechanical from Jadavpur University. I am eligible to answer this question.

First of all, JU is much higher in ranking than NIT Durgapur. Also, the fees at JU are way more affordable. As JU is located in Kolkata, IT companies visit the campus more often. As far as core courses are concerned, the faculty for ME especially, is good at both the colleges. But core placements are much better at NIT Durgapur because PSUs visit the campus. On the other hand, JU students have to sit for GATE. 

If you wish to study CS, IT or ECE, choose Jadavpur University without second thought. As far as core jobs are concerned, choose NIT Durgapur.

Do all the students who score more than the BITSAT cutoff marks get into BITS Pilani, or does rank also play a role in the selection process?

A
Admin Posted On : May 14th, 2024

To be eligible for admission at BITS Pilani, you will first have to meet the minimum eligibility criteria. After that, you are eligible to sit for the BITSAT examination. 

Each year a certain cut-off mark is decided depending on the number of students appearing and the difficulty of the questions. Once you get a score above the cut-off marks, you will be eligible to sit for the counselling process. This is where the actual selection takes place. 

You will be asked to give your preference for campus and engineering specialization. There will be multiple rounds of counselling after which you will be allocated your seat at one of the campuses and your engineering major based on your marks and preference list. If you do not like the campus or your major, then you can opt for the next round of counselling to get your preferred campus and major.

Is it worth to drop a year in RMLNLU for NLSIU?

CD
Chetna Das Posted On : September 23rd, 2021
Studied BA LLB (Hons) Law & Humanities,Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia National Law University,Lucknow (2017)

You can easily drop a year in RMLNLU for NLSIU or NALSAR. The academic calendar at RMLNLU is completely different and not so tight. There are no mid-semester exams and only end-semester exams take place. 

It is not mandatory to take part in moots, debates, and mediation competitions. You can score well in your semester-end exams by studying 2 weeks before them and can easily devote time and prepare for CLAT.

Thus we can conclude that it is just a myth among people who think that they will not get time after getting admission to RMLNLU. So remove this myth from your mind and start preparing for the exam.
