Both Gargi and Shaheed Bhagat Singh are well-regarded colleges with equally good reputations. They are located in the same city and even their year of establishment is the same. The faculty pools are great. So choosing one over the now depends more on your preference. If you are serious about your academics and future you can go for the all-girls college, Gargi but if you want a more vibrant college experience, go for SBS.
As a whole, it can be said that Gargi has better placement opportunities while SBS has a tad bit better faculty pool.
Now the choice is yours!
Which is better: Shaheed Bhagat Singh College, Sri Guru Gobind College or Dyal Singh College for a B.Com programme?
According to the reviews online, Sri Guru Gobind Singh College of Commerce (SGGSCC) is a very well maintained institution. They have a proper infrastructure with a good faculty and student crowd. Shaheed Bhagat Singh College (SBSC) is also academically a good institute.
It is suggested that you do not go for Dyal Singh College (DSC) but opt for anyone among the other two mentioned.
Between SGGSCC and SBSC make your choice based on the location. If you belong to South Delhi, Noida or Gurgaon, then choose SBSC. If you are from any other part of Delhi choose SGGSCC.
If you are from an outstation choose SGGSCC as overall living cost in North Delhi is cheaper than South Delhi and you can also stay near North Campus which will help you interact with a much more diverse set of people.
How do I get the original degree from Rajasthan Technical University?
I have a few friends from Rajasthan Technical University and according to them, it’s not likely that you will be able to get your original certificate directly from RTU Kota. It is supposed to be distributed by the college only.
So check with your college. If yours didn’t reach the college, then let them send a request to the RTU Kota office for the same and wait until then.
If it's urgent you can visit RTU Kota. Don’t forget to bring your original documents like provisional degree, consolidated marksheet, semester-wise marksheet, registration card, identity card, etc. You can also contact the number provided on the website. Although they hardly answer.

How much percentile do I need to get a call from MDI Gurgaon, IMT Ghaziabad, IIM K, SP Jain, NITIE?
To secure admission to top MBA institutes in India, you should aim for CAT percentiles from 85 onwards. Here's the order of the institutes you should target in descending order - IIM K with 97+ percentile, MDI with 96+, IMT Ghaziabad with 90+, SPJain with 85+, and NITIE with as high as possible sectional-wise.
Even though SPJain is a premier institute, it gives a call from the 85 percentile onward, since they focus on overall values that an individual possesses and want students with more values in them. They have 2 group interviews, so they follow a rejection procedure.
NITIE has a sectional cutoff, so it's advisable to have as high as possible sectional-wise, as many people with an overall CAT percentile in the range of 97-98 were not selected in either of their 2 programs(PGDM and PGDIESM) in 2016.
IIM K also has a sectional cutoff of 90+, so it's important to score well in each section.
It's worth noting that these institutes do not have a sectional cutoff, but it's always advisable to have a 90+ sectional percentile to be on the safer side. Aim for high percentile and sectional scores to improve your chances of securing a seat in these prestigious institutes.
What things are required in a hostel for a freshman at BIT, Mesra?
Things to carry to BIT Mesra hostel as a freshman are as follows.
- Even if you do not carry mattresses with you, there are high chances that you will be provided with a premium quality mattress at the hostel.
- Do not forget your ATM cards and it will be good if you carry a small amount of cash while you go there for the first time.
- Workshop Clothes, since the ones that you will probably get stitched with the tailors near your hostel, might not fit well.
- LAN Cable. The one that you will get near the college gate is usually of poor quality, so better to carry it by yourself.
- Laptop or desktop and other personal belongings.
- Programming Book. Carry at least a C programming book with yourself.
- English book by Wren and Martin. It will be really helpful during your first semester English paper.
- Maggie Maker for late-night cravings.
- Home-made food that you can store for a few days.
- Passport-sized photographs if you want to issue a new SIM in a new state.
- If you are a gamer then do not forget to carry a good quality mouse and keyboard.
This was in the year 2014 when my cousin was a student there. Things might have changed for the better now.
Which is better for an MBBS, AIIMS Patna, KGMC Lucknow or Grant Medical College, Mumbai?
All three insulations, AIIMS Patna, KGMC Lucknow, and Grant Medical College, Mumbai, are well-respected in the field of medicine and have a strong reputation for providing quality education and training to students pursuing an MBBS degree.
AIIMS Patna is known for its top-notch infrastructure and other campus facilities and good academics. It’s the most preferable AIIMS after Delhi. KGMC Lucknow is also a decent college though I am not aware of its infrastructure. GGMC Mumbai on the other hand is the best option of the three. Here is why
- Its prime location plays a big role in making it the better option of the 3 institutes. Mumbai is a much more preferred city than Lucknow or Patna.
- The patient inflow is diverse and huge enabling you to witness a variety of cases both common and rare in your UG itself.
- Academic-wise too, this institute gives an edge over other institutes. With a well-structured curriculum and highly qualified professors, you will get an amazing learning experience
- Great emphasis is given to the attendance and practicals of every subject.
- In addition to academics, this college is well known for its active extracurricular culture. It has its own Gymkhana at Marine drives in addition to various cultural, and sports events and quizzes.
- The hostel facilities are also decent as per government standards.
- There are around 3-4 canteens and food served here is at subsidized rates.
The above list is not exhaustive and there are many more points as to why GGMC is a better choice than AIIMS Patna and KGMC Lucknow. Ultimately, it’s your call to make. If you are after the AIIMS tag, go for AIIMS Patna but if you want to enjoy your life along with decent academics then JJ would be the best choice for you.
Which exam is tougher to crack: CLAT or AILET?
AILET is a tougher exam compared to CLAT. AILET is held by the National Law University of Delhi while the CLAT exam is for admission in NLUs, IP University, and many more.
Reasons:
- The number of applicants for the AILET exam is more than for CLAT. Thus, the difficulty level and the competition increases.
- Number of seats: 80 seats are offered in the AILET exam while in CLAT, there are around 2538 seats in which 724 seats are available in CLAT PG. The seats are divided according to the reservation policy of the NLUs.There is only one participating institute under AILET, that is, the National Law University, Delhi.
AILET is a cut-throat examination and chances to get a seat in NLU Delhi is minimal. Around 17000 candidates apply for the exam for only 80 seats thus, the difficulty level gets higher every year.
In CLAT, almost 18 students compete for a seat whereas, in AILET, there are around 203 students competing for a seat in NLU, Delhi. Although the same students who apply for AILET also apply for CLAT, the competition to get admission in NLU Delhi is tough, since it is one of the top 5 National Law Universities in India.
Can I get admission in BTech with 95/200 marks in Manipal University?
Well, a precise answer cannot be possible, it totally depends on the cutoff and the branch. I have many friends who have successfully secured a seat at Manipal University. Check out the following insights on the cutoff and admissions.
- Keep in mind that the entrance paper will be quite long and there’s no way to finish it on time. Keep around 1/2 hr in the middle so you can make guesses for the questions you don’t know, as there is no negative marking.
- A few years back one of my friends got 157/200 in MUOET and was the first one to take up a Mechanical engineering seat in Manipal campus with a rank of 462. The cutoff ended at 6K odd rank.
Nonetheless, there is no fixed score to get you in, as it changes with every branch. With 95/200 marks it is recommended to try in Jaipur campus as it can be quite easier as compared to the main campus. Also, if you have no idea about which branch is best for you, then blindly go for CSE/IT because these branches have the maximum placement opportunities. In the end, you might get admission in some of the other subjects for even 11000 ranks but when it comes to placements, it might get troublesome.
What is the GATE cutoff for IIT BHU?
GATE Cut off for any college depends on several factors like the branch, category, difficulty level of the question paper, and the number of seats.
The cut off varies year to year depending on these factors. You need to compare the difficulty levels of the question papers of previous years and their cut-offs to get an idea of what might be the cut off for this year. The cutoff for different branches at IIT BHU for the year 2018 is given below.
