what is the cnpi process in IMT-Ghaziabad?
IMT Ghaziabad is one of the most popular colleges for MBA. To get admission here, you have to appear for MBA entrance exams like CAT, XAT, GMAT, and CMAT. On clearing those you can apply for IMT Ghaziabad and its various branches in Nagpur, Hyderabad, and Dubai. Further, for the selection, you need to go through a few stages which include Critical thinking, Group Exercise, and Personal Interview.
It consists of three simple stages as CT-GE-PI and Common Application form for its final selection process.
The Critical Thinking Test:
- After arrival and registration of the shortlisted candidates, there will be a thorough long Critical Thinking Test for the duration of 30 minutes.
- This will boil down on three parameters - critical thinking, written communication skills, and innovation & creativity.
Group Exercise:
- After the critical thinking test, the candidates will be divided into small groups for the Group Exercise.
- The group will be given a problem to solve or a task to perform, which they must do together while discussing among themselves.
- For instance, they might be asked to do a short case study, solve a puzzle, or solve a business problem.
- This will take approximately 30 minutes and will evaluate the candidate on four parameters – contribution of ideas, leadership potential, interpersonal skills and communication & attitude.
Personal Interview:
- Post the Group Exercise, the candidate will have a personal interview of approximately 15 minutes, during which he/she will be evaluated on four parameters: domain knowledge, communication skills, versatility (extra-curricular/general awareness), as well as values & maturity.
- Work Experience candidates will be additionally evaluated on the relevance of their work experience in relation to the PGDM program.
The final merit of the candidate will be a cumulative weighted average which has the Academic Scores, Work Experience, and the scores obtained during the CT-GE-PI process.
Both merit and campus score cut-offs will be the foundation of selection for IMT campuses, i.e. Ghaziabad, Nagpur, Hyderabad, and Dubai.
Which is the best hostel (overall) to live in when at IIT BHU?
The best hostel to live at IIT BHU is the Vivekanand Hostel. Once you spend your time there, you will never want to switch hostels. Here are short reviews of the other 4 hostels.
- Morvi Hostel: A decent hostel with nice lawns, hygienic toilets, and LAN ports. It just acks basic
- Guantanamo Bay: One of the worst hostels to stay at at IIT BHU. The hostel did not have lawns and was surrounded by mud. The worst part of this hostel is the uncleaned toilets and unhygienic living conditions.
- Vivekanand Hostel:Decent double-seater rooms and big lawns surrounded the hostel. The sports facilities are awesome including a badminton and a volleyball court
- Visvesvaraya Hostel: A very pathetic hostel with poor living conditions where students are literally stuffed together. The only good thing was its location and the canteen. The mess, and LAN network all made life challenging here.
Overall, I consider Vivekanand Hostel to be the best for me.
How is IIT Kharagpur?
IIT Kharagpur is a premier engineering and technology institute in India, being one of the oldest and most reputed institutes of technology in the country. It is well known for its high-quality education, research, and innovation. The institute boasts of a strong academic curriculum, excellent faculty, and a diverse student body. Its Central Library speaks highly of its top notch infrastructure.
However, some of its labs are in bad condition. The development at IIT Kharagpur is very slow with only one market within the campus.
- Food is delivered on campus through Zomato and Swiggy.
- Shopping can be done by traveling to Kolkata. For urgent needs one can visit either Gole Bazar or Big Bazaar or Reliance Trends situated outside the campus.
- For entertainment, Bollywood/Bengali movies are played inside the campus in Netaji Auditorium on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Apart from it, one movie hall (Bombay Cineplex) is also situated near Big Bazar/Jagannath Mandir.
- IIT KGP has zero transport facilities and the most difficult part is commuting from one place to another. The auto rickshaws are extremely old and create air pollution. Students cannot really travel after 8-9 pm.
- The mess food needs special attention because the quality of food served is very substandard. It’s unhygienic and unhealthy compared to the food served at other IITs.
The only positive aspects of IIT KGP are its technical and cultural fests like Springfest that is East India’s biggest fest. Apart from this, IIT KGP definitely needs to focus on outside development.
Can someone give me a priority order for these MBBS colleges Seth Gs , Grant, KGMU, BHU, CMC Vellore, AIIMS (except Delhi)?
Every college is good in one or the other aspects. Its location, faculty, and infrastructure are the main factors that determine a college's priority. The following list contains the colleges in order of priority based on their pros and cons.
Pros:
-
BHU: No requirement to sign a bond
-
Seth GS: Located in Mumbai with the best academic structure
-
KGMU Lucknow: The location and academic structure are perfect.
-
Other AIIMS: No need to sign any bond and the fee structure is affordable. AIIMS tag can help you with USMLE purposes.
Cons:
-
BHU: Located in Varanasi, it lacks the facilities of metropolitan cities like Delhi and Mumbai
-
Seth GS: Mumbai is expensive and a bond of 1 year needs to be signed
-
CMC Vellore: You will have to learn Tamil as it is located South India. The fee structure is pretty expensive.
-
Other AIIMS: They are usually not located in a good location except for Bhopal and Bhubaneswar.
The preferred order as per the pros and cons can be - BHU> AIIMS> KGMU> Grant> Seth GS> CMC Vellore
One college can be good for you but bad for others. This is because your own needs determine which college is best for you. So choose wisely.
Is the CUSAT school of engineering or model engineering college better?
It depends upon a lot of parameters. If you wish to enjoy it, definitely go for MEC. It might not be such a good choice as far as infrastructure is concerned, but it does excel in the aspects which matter the most, the prime aspect being, a secure future.
If you have a look at the placement statistics, they would show you the return on investment you would get in MEC. Being a small college unlike SOE, the students get to know most of the people in college. As far as teaching and placements are concerned, MEC is far better than SOE.

If you go by the outside world, people might even call it a ‘school’, but unless you experience it yourself, you will never know the uniqueness. It all depends upon you. If you want to balance your studies as well as have fun MEC would be best for you.
But, at the end of the day, it’s you, not the college. As both the institutes have an equal status in their own unique ways.
How is NIT Silchar for electrical engineering?
My brother completed his B.Tech Electrical Engineering from NIT Silchar. According to him-
- Course Structure - The course structure is good but some upgrading is needed. There is more Power Engineering (for example topics like Power Systems, Machines, Drives, etc.). You should join ECE if you are into Electronics, VLSI design, Embedded Systems, Hardware Programming, etc. But even with Electrical, you will get 6 electives in your senior year to quench your thirst for knowledge. Few labs focus on MATLAB.
- Faculty and attendance criteria - The faculty consists of qualified teachers. However, the EE faculty is way more strict than the faculties of other departments at NIT Silchar. EE is the most strict department for attendance. Minimum 75% attendance is mandatory for most courses.
- Placements - Core placements aren’t really high for EE students. Only a few students get placed in PSUs. Other than that, EE students can sit for placements in Finance, Analytics, and IT. Business Executive, Managerial, and Sales Executive are other profiles that are open to Electrical students.
- Infrastructure and labs - The infrastructure of NIT Silchar is good, especially when compared to other NITs. The UG B.Tech labs are of decent quality.
EE at NIT Silchar is not a department where you can relax. It demands a lot of hard work from its students. But once you show dedication and commitment, this department will enhance your personality and knowledge.
What are your thoughts on food processing engineering at NIT Rourkela?
NIT Rourkela's newly launched branch Food Processing has a wide scope for development and research and its worth cannot simply be judged through its placements. It caters to the ones interested in the production and processing of food and maintaining its quality.
The branch covers all arenas of food marketing from developing food and machines to keeping the food safe. It comprises concepts from various other branches too like mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, and Food Science and Engineering.
As there is growth and development in India with respect to Food and Beverage Processing, there has opened up a gate for great research and job opportunities, as well, in the near future or I would say it has already started.
I asked a friend about the placement scenario of the branch and he told me that around 80-85% of students are placed. The highest salary package offered is 17 LPA. Most of the students receive internship opportunities while some prefer going to top foreign universities to pursue higher studies or research.
Some of the core companies visiting the campus for placement are Milk Mantra, IDMC, Tetra Pak, etc. Some of the non-core companies visiting the campus for placement are ZS Associates, TCS, EXL Services, Tredence, Affine Analytics, etc.
Other programs that students of this branch end up going to include Management programs in IIM-A, XIMB, NIBM, BITS Pilani, and direct Ph.D. in foreign universities. Some even go for M.Tech Program in NIFTEM.
So, the B.Tech program in Food Process Engineering is a great choice for interested students considering its increasing demand and scope.
My son's score in the JEE is 56. Can he get CS in LNCT Bhopal?
It will be difficult to get CS at LNCT Bhopal main campus, with a JEE score of 56. But he can get other branches such as Chemical, IT, Production, EE, etc. He can also try for the other two colleges under LNCT group, i.e. LNCTS, and LNCTE. In terms of placements, there is not too much difference between these institutes.
