Is it a good choice to prefer IIT Delhi textile over IIIT Delhi CSE, considering the fact that branch change is quite hard in IITD?

SS
Savi Sharma Posted On : October 4th, 2023

IIT Delhi has a much greater brand value as compared to IIIT Delhi. IIT D is superior in many aspects, one of which is campus life. 

I have many friends in IITD Textile. They bagged foreign internships in the IT sector during their second year.

The coursework for Textile is very manageable. You’ll get ample time to practice coding on your own. Don’t worry about branch change. Even for a career in CS/IT, self-practice will get you through. Also, opt for the open electives offered at IIT Delhi. You’ll ace CS/IT placement tests, and secure a good job.

Thus, I would recommend you choose IIT Delhi Textile over IIIT Delhi CSE.

Why do Christian institutes like CMC Vellore, St. Johns, etc. have so much Christian quota?

A
Admin Posted On : May 3rd, 2024

CMC Vellore is a Christian minority institution. This is why the majority of its MBBS and PG seats are reserved for Christian candidates.

I am a non-Christian, and I completed my MBBS from CMC Vellore in 2021. Though CMC Vellore has a Christian-based reservation system for admissions into MBBS, certain seats are open to meritorious candidates of all faiths. 

This is the MBBS seat distribution system at CMC Vellore:

  • Management Quota- 50% seats are reserved for management quota candidates. These seats are divided into three categories-
    • Open Category Seats
    • Christian Minority Seats
    • CMC Vellore Staff Quota Seats
  • Government Quota- 50% seats fall under the government quota. Out of these-
    • 30% seats are allocated by the State Government on the basis of the State Merit list of NEET examination.
    • 20% seats are allocated by the State Government to Christian Minority candidates from Tamil Nadu.

You can refer to the following seat distribution data from the 2024 Admission Bulletin of CMC Vellore-

CMC MBBS Seats

Out of 100 MBBS seats at CMC Vellore, 68 are reserved for Christian students. However, the remaining seats are open to students of other faiths as well.

What are the cons of studying in VSSUT, Burla?

Sabeer Chalana Posted On : October 11th, 2023

Like every other college, VSSUT Burla has its own set of cons some of which have been mentioned below 

  1. Despite having the best amenities among government colleges, it’s quite lacking as compared to a private college.
  2. Being located in the small town of Burla, students of VSSUT have no access to city life. However, it may not be a con necessarily for nature lovers considering the beautiful ambiance and forest-covered hills
  3. The pool club is in the backyard of the hostels. 
  4. VASUT has a very outdated curriculum but so do most IITs.
  5. The administration is very slow and unresponsive.
  6. The library of the institute does not have a good ambiance conducive to studying.

Hope you get a fair idea of the cons at VSSUT, Burla.

What is the most amazing thing you experience while studying at IIT Bombay?

PG
Pratik Gandhi Posted On : March 18th, 2023
B.Tech. CSE, IIT Bombay

The most amazing thing one can experience at IIT Bombay is the amazing student activities conducted throughout the year to maintain the lively environment of the campus. Students invest a lot of time and effort in these activities to give amazing results. The best part of the year is early December when these activities are at their peak due to the break between 2 semesters.

  1. A typical day in the week of December begins at 5 am when sports enthusiasts make their way to the sports field to practice for the Inter IIT Sports Meet.
  2. At 7 am you will see a group of tired students heading back to their hostels after working the entire night. They are organizers of Mood Indigo or Techfest, IITB's cultural and technical festivals respectively.
  3. By 9 am, students have had their breakfast and head to their respective departments for research projects during holidays.
  4. By 11 am, a mixed crowd will be seen handing out in the lounges and the student activity center. Some belong to a robotics competition for Techfest or come to a dance or a music group practicing for Mood Indigo.
  5. Towards the evening events like public lectures by scientists, debate practices, or quizzes are held. By 9 pm, the sports students are returning while student activity students are going to begin their work.
  6. By 11 pm, the hostels are quiet with only those who are working for fests staying awake. Some students can be seen at the canteen around 3 am munching midnight snacks. You can also spot final-year students dressed in formal walking here and there for campus placements.

I want to pursue an M.A. in geography at JNU next year. How can I crack its entrance exam?

DG
Damini Gupta Posted On : November 10th, 2021
studied Geography at Delhi School of Economics (2019)

If you are interested in Geography and have basic knowledge, it is not difficult to get admission at JNU. The syllabus for the entrance test is the same as that of undergraduate (Hons) in Geography. You can go through the syllabus on the website along with the question papers from the previous years too. It will help you understand how to prepare for the entrance test. 

The entrance test consists of 100 marks with objective multiple-choice questions (MCQs). Do not try to attempt all questions. Rather focus on accuracy. Take a calculated risk and try to attempt 80-88% of questions correctly. 

You can get an idea about the question asked in the entrance from previous year’s question papers and paper 2 and 3 of NET-JRF Geography.

Is there any trip for 1st year MBBS students in MAMC Delhi like AIIMS Delhi?

Sayantani Barman Posted On : October 5th, 2023

Yes, there is an unofficial annual trip for MAMC 1st year students, usually after the end of 1st Professional Examinations in the month of August. The trip is the perfect break from the tiring exams and is highly looked forward to by the freshers. This trip was initiated by the seniors who also accompanied students on the trip.

However, since the trip is unofficial, the students have to bear all the expenses of travel, stay, adventure activities, and meals.

My friend was a first-year student at MAMC and his batch was taken on a trip spanning Saattal-Mukteshwar-Nainital. They started the journey with a bus and soon reached their first destination. Instead of staying in hotels, they set up tents surrounded by lush greenery and lakes and waterfalls. They even organized a campfire and played all sorts of games. Many adrenaline freaks also took part in adventure sports like Rock climbing, Rappelling, Kayaking, flying fox, etc. 

Overall, it was an amazing experience and I recommend going on the batch trip once with your batchmates.
