Which college should I opt for between LHMC and VMMC?
I am listing below the advantages of each of these colleges-
LHMC-
- It is located at Connaught Place.
- It offers the prestigious DU tag.
- LHMC has better academics than VMMC.
- It is an all-girls college, so it is safer for girls.
- You’ll get the Delhi State quota for PG seats.
VMMC-
- It is located at South Extension, near AIIMS.
- It has better infrastructure than LHMC.
- The clinical exposure is better due to the greater diversity of cases.
- Its co-ed environment will make you more comfortable to work with the opposite gender.
- It offers guaranteed internal PG quota in hospitals like RML. An internal PG quota will be of immense help for your higher studies.
Both the colleges are good, and you should choose between them based on your personal preference.
I am confused amongst IIIT Delhi, NSIT, and DTU for CSE. What are some suggestions?
All three colleges namely, IIIT Delhi, NSIT, and DTU are excellent options for CSE. However, you might want to consider the following points before making the final decision
- Campus life: In terms of campus life, the DTU is the best option followed by NSUT and IIIT Delhi. DTU offers a very laid-back cap pledge life experience with a minimal workload and a lot of time to pursue your hobbies. There aren’t many restrictions on attendance also.
- Curriculum: IIIT Delhi is a clear winner in terms of curriculum as it has no extra subjects in the first year. Students are taught coding languages and related assignments from day one and thus prepare students better than their counterparts.
- Research: IIIT Delhi is a research-oriented institute and has better research facilities, labs, and resources. DTU and NSUT have a similar research culture.
- Infrastructure: IIIT Delhi is a newly established college so has modern infrastructure, although the campus is small. DTU and NSUT have larger campuses and better sports facilities.
- Fees: IIIT Delhi charges extremely high fees around INR 4.62 Lakhs (1st Year Fees) which is almost double the fees charged by DTU INR 2.19 Lakhs (1st Year Fees)
So choose wisely based on your priorities!
I could have got Ajay Kumar Garg (CS) but I chose ABES Engineering College (CS). Did I make the right choice?
Both the colleges are similar to each other in many ways and are located in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh. They are affiliated with the same university, Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam Technical University (AKTU).
For the year 2018-19, there was a total of 847 job offers made to B.Tech students of Ajay Kumar Garg Engineering College. ABES Engineering College had a total of 233 students in the CS department participating in the placement process with 209 getting placed receiving a total of 305 job offers with INR 10 LPA as the highest salary for the current year.
Apart from these, there are some really good things to look forward to on the campus –
- Personality and skill development – It has a Student Employability Enhancement Program (SEEP) running to help you improve your soft skills and overall personality to make you ready for corporate life. If you want to improve your core coding skill, it has 2 specialized coding clubs to do that.
- General life – They organize the techno-cultural fest GENERO every year. They also recently organized their first TEDx event, TEDxABESCE. The students of the college have also formed an NGO Help Us to Help the Child (HUHC) with more than 180 volunteers.
- College Amenities and support – The infrastructure is really very good, especially the library. The college gives freedom to its students to attend programs run by other departments as well which helps you to become multi-talented. Even though many students outside of the college think that the extra rules imposed on the students make them feel like school students, but in reality that is part of the student development.
Do not doubt about your choice you have already made. There is no point in that. In contrast, try to make use of all the facilities being given to you and you would never regret your choice.
Which one is better if the money factor is excluded, NIT Kurukshetra Electrical or BITS Goa EEE?
The faculty members of the EEE department at BITS Goa are not good, except for a few of them.
According to the professors, the only way to answer the questions is to attend their lectures and not understand the concepts. The average scores and grades are very low. The average of a class usually is C in a test or marks like 15 out of 75.
BITS has a higher brand value than any NIT in India. You can clear your concepts on your own. You can also learn from the knowledgeable professors of the EEE department.
If you maintain a CGPA of 8 or above, especially in the EEE department, you can easily get an internship with the help of a practice school program. These factors also help you if you opt to study further in any part of the world, or if you prefer to do a job.
However, placements at NIT Trichy are better. But, if you have the required skills, you will get good opportunities to land up in a good job position. The average CTC offered to the students is 5 LPA.
You will easily get into a good institution for higher studies or any good company for a job, even if you do not pay much attention to the lectures at BITSG. All you need to do is, have some good internship experience, be on good terms with few faculties of the EEE department, and get required recommendation letters.
Which is better: TAPMI or GIM Goa?
Based on the specialization i.e., a student goes for Marketing then GIM, Goa if a student chooses Finance then TAPMI. Although the GIM Goa is a bit expensive and has smaller batch strength with respect to TAPMI.
Where are placements better, IIEST or NIT Durgapur?
Having friends in both the institutes, I can say that overall, NIT Durgapur is a better choice among the two. But IIEST is also an excellent institute with national importance.
There are several factors that affect the placement in both the institutes, according to them here are some -
- IIEST is a famous and well-established institute in West Bengal, previously known as BESU. But, considering India, NIT Durgapur is more popular. The NIT tag itself is a highlight.
- NIT Durgapur has several alumni in tech giants across the world. Students from IIEST are currently in IITs and IISc. This is due to their popularity for higher education.
- Companies recruit fewer students from IIEST, as they have a tendency to leave jobs for better opportunities in higher studies.
- NIT Durgapur also has an excellent coding culture. This increases the chances of securing a job.
- Due to the increase in the number of seats at IIEST, the chances of placement are decreasing.
The following table shows important statistics for both institutes:

Which one is better: Thapar University or LNMIIT Jaipur?
Both LNMIIT and Thapar University are highly regarded institutes in the country. However, while choosing one over the other you would like to consider the following points.

Fees: LNMIIT first year fees are ?3.75 Lakhs while that of Thapar University is ?4.61 Lakhs.
Location: Thapar University is situated in a better location right in the main town of Patiala whereas LNMIIT is located on the outskirts of Jaipur.

Overall, I will advise you to go for LNMIIT if you are getting CSE but for other branches, Thapar University is good.
What should I prefer GEC Goa CSE or EEE in NIT Goa?
The preference should be firstly based on the branch and not on the colleges. Opt for the college where you get the branch of your choice. It's not college that matters but rather it's the branch. If you get the branch of your choice, you will be more likely to study that well and attain a successful future.
- If you are more into the programming languages, the technology and are passionate about learning the subjects associated with the CSE, then opt for GEC as there's nothing above the branch.
- If you have an interest in EEE, opt straight for the NIT Goa as it is an institute that will never disappoint in terms of placement, academics, faculties, or higher studies.
- NIT Goa is a brand in itself. But opt for it only if you are sure about the branch.
| Categories | CSE at GEC Goa | EEE at NIT Goa |
| Course Fee | 2.9 lakh | 5.38 lakh |
| Highest CTC | 24 LPA | 18-19 LPA |
| Average CTC | 12 LPA | 11 LPA |
| Recruiting Companies | Accenture, Wipro, TCS, HP, etc. | Infosys, Adobe, Capgemini, L&T, etc. |
If you think that you will take EEE in NIT Goa and then change the branch to CSE, then it's nearly impossible. There are high cut offs for changing the branch and it happens after following a certain set of rules that is not possible. So choose wisely as your career depends on it.
Which is a better option between IIIT, Bhubaneswar and VSSUT, Burla?

- Culture: Sadly, VSSUT still hasn’t managed to develop its culture because it's new. Its alumni network is also not strong. However, it has an active club culture offering a lot of scope for self-development.
- Placements: VSSUT has been recording decent placement records with top recruiters like TCS, Infosys, Deloitte, Tata Steel, Vedanta, etc. The average CTC offered to students is around Rs.6.05 LPA while the highest CTC offered is around Rs. 17.34 LPA.
Ultimately, college can only be a stepping stone and it’s you who has to carve the way to success.
How is Thapar University? Which is better, Manipal or Thapar?
If you want to compare Manipal and Thapar University, Thapar University is the better choice.
The academics are unquestionably excellent and experienced. Classroom labs are excellent. There are numerous sports facilities and 40 to 50 clubs or societies. Every day, something related to these societies occurs on campus. One of the best ways to get over homesickness is to stay in a hostel, which has some of the best food in the country.
The number of research projects, major seminars and projects undertaken, MoUs signed, and training programs undertaken by students and faculty members determine whether Thapar University is a good university or not. So, yes, Thapar has completed many projects and has many more in the works, many of which are funded by the government, PSUs, and private organizations, well-organized and detailed training programs with the best organizations, and a lot of investment in research and development with the help of MoUs.
