What is trial round in CUSAT?
The trial allotment round in CUSAT is not like a real allotment round. By the trial rounds, they give you a very rough idea about the position you get in the rank list for the particular branch.
- If your rank is 17 in the trial allotment round for the computer science branch then it means 17 students are ahead of you.
- Basically, the purpose of conducting the trial allotment rounds is that the chances for you to get admission are high as the students travel miles just to get the admission.
- If they do not get admitted then it would be a complete waste of time as well as money.
Lastly, we can say that the trial allotment rounds are just to give you an idea of which branch you are likely to get. So that you can complete the further criteria accordingly considering all other things together.

What GPA is safe in the IT branch of SOE CUSAT for a good job?
CUSAT has a very strict and necessary rule when it comes to placements. It doesn’t matter which branch you are in, you have to follow the rule irrespective of your subjects, stream, or branch.
The basic rule in CUSAT, in SOE, or CUCEK is that for placements, you must have an 8 GPA or a minimum percentage of 75 percentile. The GPA, however, does not guarantee you a placement from any company but it allows you to apply to any of the companies visiting the campus.
7.5 GPA or near about 70 percentile is also a good percentile. However, it’s not wise to approach your studies with a grade-oriented attitude. Try to secure good grades, but learn along the way too.
Which is better at CUSAT, IT or EC?
Both the options are good. There is no such difference in the quality of education, either in these two branches, or any other branch in CUSAT.
They make you work hard, focus on every detail, and stress a lot on the practical classes and labs.
As for the faculty, 85% are permanent. As for the quality of faculty, everyone will have a different view. According to my friends at CUSAT, the only difference you will find between the branches is that the EC people toil 3 times harder than the other branches.
According to the overall placement statistics the average and highest CTC offered to the students is 4 LPA and 15 LPA.
You should choose the branch that is better for you. Think about the branch where your interest lies, will you be able to manage the workload efficiently, does the subject interest you, or which branch has the better placements matter. However, I would like to advise you not to be bothered by placements any more.
How is the CUSAT ranking, cutoff, and placement for a B.Tech 4 year?
CUSAT is ranked 63rd in the overall college rankings of NIRF for 2023. It has two colleges for B.Tech. One of them is SOE i.e. School of Engineering in Kochi City, and the other is CUCEK i.e. Cochin University College of Engineering in Pulinkunnu. It is a village roughly 100 km away from SOE.
The cutoff varies from year to year. My brother’s rank was 3129. He got Civil in SOE, a few years back. For CS/IT, you’ll need at least a rank >1000. The placements are decent for CS/IT and Safety & Fire graduates.
The average package for these streams is 3 LPA, and the highest package is around 20 LPA. Amazon sometimes visits the campus to make recruitments. The placements are in a poor condition for other branches. Moreover, the CUCEK campus lacks lab facilities for Civil and Mechanical.
Overall, CUSAT is a decent choice for B.Tech, but it lags behind in terms of placements and facilities for non CS/IT branches.
Which is better, IIIT Kancheepuram computer engineering or NIT Trichy EEE?
Firstly you should decide which stream you want to go with and then look at the colleges for the same.
There are some parameters on which you should especially focus on which include an established brand with great recognition, placement history, and excellent startup culture. According to all these parameters, NIT Trichy is the best place for you. In the recent placement drive, the average CTC offered was 6 LPA.
On the other hand, IIITDM Kancheepuram offers a unique curriculum. It addresses the design and manufacturing issues faced by the industry. At the end of your course, you will be able to converse with the technical experts in your relevant field of study. Although IIITDM Kancheepuram is a new institute and doesn’t have a great placement record yet, it is growing in terms of its reach and brand value.
Should I Leave IIM Ahmedabad admission offer for RBI Grade B?
Let’s talk about the advantages and disadvantages of these options before choosing one of them.
RBI Grade B -
- RBI comes only after UPSE. Considering the political pressure of UPSE, RBI can be the best job in India.
- The salary package is similar to the median CTC offered at IIMA.
- RBI has great job security, irrespective of the ruling party. Govt. policies like privatization won’t affect RBI.
- Posting will be always in the state capital.
- RBI jobs have a great work-life balance.
IIMA -
- Batch size of IIMA is over 400. You will have to do exceptionally well to stand out from the crowd and bag offers from top investment banks and consulting firms.
- The course fee for the PGP is INR 23 lakhs. This can be burdensome for some students. Even if you get an INR 25 LPA CTC, after paying education loans, tax, EMI, etc, you will have around INR 1 lakh in hand.
- Many quit investment banking jobs or consulting jobs after a few years due to huge job pressure.
- The Covid-19 recession caused many recruiters to withdraw their offer even for IIM A,B,C. There are a number of things that can affect final placements.
Factor in all these points to make the decision that’s best for you.
How are placements at IPM IIM Indore as compared to IITs?
IIMs and IITs are completely different brands. While IIMs offer management studies, the forte of IITs is engineering studies. So it is not wise to compare the placements of IIM Indore with those of the IITs.

- The highest package for 2023 was 1.14 CPA, with an increase of 132.6% from the previous placement season.

- Companies from Consulting, Finance, General Management, HR, Operations, IT, Analytics, Sales and Marketing sectors visited the campus for recruitments.
Thus, IIM Indore is a great choice for your management studies. But make sure to choose your career path based on your goals and vision, instead of simply looking at the placement stats of various colleges.
What type of crowd does NMIMS have?
NMIMS provides you with the best platform for networking with a vibrant and diverse student community.
- After a rigorous selection process, the meritorious students from across India become a part of the NMIMS community.

Is IISER worth it?
If you wish to get the most out of your college life, you will have to carry on with a very busy lifestyle. There will be classes, loads of lab work, studies, extracurricular activities, going out with friends, for dinner, ordering pizza, playing video games, movies, and a lot more things. You will be independent and decide what is good for you and what is not.
You get a lot of freedom in allotting your time to various activities. The teachers that usually teach you, make the most of the time and are experts for this. The labs are well built. The hostels are equipped with all kinds of amenities. The college has good sports facilities. But in the end, IISER is for those students whose major goal is to do research. For others, it is quite difficult then.
