Is it difficult to get admission in Ambedkar University Delhi?
Whether taking admission to Ambedkar University Delhi will be difficult or not depends on the course you are choosing.
For undergraduate courses in Economics, the required cutoff is about 2% lower as compared to the University of Delhi. It’s better to opt for AUD, rather than off-campus DU colleges.
For a postgraduate in Economics, the examination pattern and the level of examination is similar to JNU. First, you are required to clear the cutoff objective, only then your subjective answers are marked. You will be shortlisted for the interview, only when you clear the overall cutoff.

- You have slight chances of getting BE Electronics and Instrumentation in the Hyderabad campus.
- You have a high chance of getting Mechanical both at the Hyderabad and Goa campuses.
- Other branches you can go for are Chemical Civil and Manufacturing
Please note that the above cutoff is based on last year and there might be slight differences.
Does BITS Pilani get international offers for placements?
Yes, BITS Pilani students receive international offers for placements, especially those who pursue technological courses. Each year the CSE department receives high paying national and international offers. There are other departments as well that receive international offers.
However, to get such an offer you will have to stand out from the other students. To do this, you will have to maintain a perfect resume with the right number of internships and practical projects. Moreover, your English communication skills must be really good. If you work hard and maintain a good score, you will be considered for foreign job opportunities. You will have to ace the interview round to be considered for such roles. Do not lose hope and keep working hard.

How can I prepare to smartly target the CAT or the IIM Indore exam?
The PG programs in IIM Indore usually consider admissions through the CAT exam. However, in case you are referring to the IPM AT for the 5-year integrated program, then it cannot be compared to CAT, since they are completely different from each other. IPM AT is for UG students while CAT is for PG courses.
Having said that, the basic preparation steps for any entrance exam need basic steps of preparation.
- You should be aware of the exams, as well as the pattern, the syllabus, and others. For similar purposes, you can take a look at the sample papers of previous years, or several mock test papers, if required.
- You must assess your own level of aptitude, whenever necessary, and prepare thoroughly.
- You should work to strengthen your fundamental knowledge.
- Evaluate your base by taking the mock test papers and analyze each answer when done. Further, prepare a strategy that can incentivize your scores in the exam.
These are the basic steps to look forward to when preparing for the exam.
What is the concept of IIT Madras Research Park? How good is it?
IIT Madras has a research park that only a few Indian colleges have, it’s the reason why it is often called the Stanford University of India. IIT and IISc are the most deemed universities of India yet only IIT Madras has its own research park.
It is about 1.2 million square feet. Prof. Ashok Jhunjhunwala, an electrical engineering professor, laid the foundation of a research park on the campus of IIT Madras.
- Startups like Ather Energy, the electric vehicle company, and ZOHO were both founded lead by the alumni of IIT Madras. These are technology-based startups.
- There are several e-commerce websites but building a company with Qualcomm, and many others.
- IIT Madras helps students to connect with the industry and build real-life projects. There are more than 1300+ patents filed with the research park at IIT Madras and more than 200 startups have been into the action and are financed by the companies like Intel, Crown special purpose, and specialty.
IIT Madras has two specialties. Among these two, one is the Research Park and the other is NPTEL. It is the largest firm that deals with all the engineering branches and courses and contains all the resources. It is equivalent to the Open Course Ware of MIT.
How do you feel an Integrated MSc course from NIT Surat (SVNIT) is?
An integrated MSc. from SVNIT will be beneficial for your future as NITs are the second most revered engineering colleges in our country. Chasing one’s dream is a good idea, but one must also be aware of our future prospects. SVNIT is a good choice in terms of placements.
Some of my friends who graduated from SVNIT know of their batchmates who received job offers of around 30 LPA from foreign recruiters. Even Indian organizations pay SVNIT graduates handsomely, but the foreign offers are higher.
Ultimately, it is you who has to make the most of the available opportunities. Thus, I would recommend you join SVNIT for an integrated MSc.
Which one is better: IT in IIIT Allahabad or CSE in BITS Goa?
The IT degree at IIIT Allahabad is considered one of the best in India, and it is aligned with the CSE curriculum from the best IITs and NITs in India. The professors are a mixed bag, with some highly qualified, doing good research, and teaching well, while some may be uninteresting. However, with some self-motivation, the academic landscape is quite good.
IIIT Allahabad has a great culture for programming, which can help you become a serious developer. The infrastructure is good, the campus is green, and the architecture is impressive, with the added benefit of being centrally air-conditioned.
On the downside, the city life in Allahabad is not great, especially if you come from a metro city. You may experience a cultural shock. The research environment is not exceptional, and there are only a handful of students aspiring to pursue higher education. You will find yourself in a batch of more than 200 students, in which you have to create your own identity. The weather is terrible, with extremely hot summers and cold winters (although some people may like the winters). The sports infrastructure is not the most amazing one.
In summary, here's the verdict:
- If you're interested in research and want to pursue technical education further in your career, BITS Goa may be the right choice for you.
- If you want a great Indian IT job after your degree, IIIT Allahabad may be the right choice for you.
- If you're looking for a better peer group, better girls, and a more happening city life, BITS Goa may be the right choice for you.
- If you're serious about programming and have a penchant for Competitive Programming, IIIT Allahabad may be the right choice for you.
