What is the procedure for the improvement exam in Sol DU for a BA h first year?

CR
Chandra Mouli Roy Posted On : September 28th, 2021
B.Sc (H) Computer Science Shaheed Sukhdev College of Business Studies,University of Delhi (2021)

Since my brother is a student of the School of Open Learning (University of Delhi), he was able to offer better insight on the topic. Here is what he had to say about the improvement rule mandated by the institute.

  1. The only exam you are permitted to improve is the last one that you appeared for. For example, let’s say that you appeared for the B.A 2nd-year examination then it is possible to only improve it once later on. While it is not possible to implement the improvement rule on the exam, like B.A 1st-year, that you appeared in the previous year.
  2. Now, it does not necessarily matter if your score either increases or decreases because whatever you score is going to be the ultimate score you receive. The marks that you retrieve will be final and you will have to surrender the previous score when you apply for the improvement exam. 

So, if you want to opt for an improvement, you need to fill the UnderTaking form. Attach your original mark sheet with the form. In case you didn’t get the original mark sheet, you can contact SOL.

AG
Alka Gupta Posted On : September 8th, 2023
Studied at Manipal Institute Of Technology

Manipal Institute of Technology offers various UG and PG courses like B.Tech, M.Tech, and M.C.A. under various specializations. B.Tech CSE is the flagship course of the institute. 

Admissions are offered through MET counseling. Seats are allocated on the basis of MET scores, availability of seats, category, and other factors. For admission to the MTech course, one needs to clear GATE or MET scores, while M.C.A. admissions are based on the merit list released by the institute. 

Here is the step-wise eligibility and selection process that will help you decide if you are eligible for MIT or not

  • You should have passed 10+2
  • You should have studied Physics, Mathematics, and English as compulsory subjects and one of Biotechnology, Biology, Chemistry or any vocational subject as optional.
  • The vocational subject must be related to either the chemical, civil, computer, electrical, or mechanical streams.
  • You should have scored 50% marks.
  • You should have taken the MET for selection
  • If qualified the MET will have to go for MET counselling.
  • Selections will be made after 5 rounds of counseling

Other option for admission to MIT includes the NRI quota. To avail this, you should have stayed or your parent must be working there. You don't have to give the entrance exam but the fees charged through this mode are extremely high. It does not offer the management quota so the quality of the crowd is not sacrificed.

How is NIT Agartala CSE? Why is it so underrated?

AR
Aditi Roy Posted On : September 18th, 2023
lives in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, India

One of my cousins recently completed his BTech in CSE from NIT Agartala so I have a slight idea about the branch. Many big brands as well as startups visit the campus to recruit students. Students receive internship opportunities both in and outside India. Moreover, many projects were published at conferences in the areas of Machine learning and Natural Language Processing.

NIT Agartala CSE has churned out many successful engineers. Now coming to your question, the reason NIT Agartala is underrated is because of a lack of communication and a preconceived notion that a North-east NIT wouldn't be good enough. The truth is it’s CSE department is facilitated really well and the labs are equipped with modern instruments. The crowd is also very diverse and the overall learning experience is unmatched. 

So, it’s better not to degrade any institute based on false notions.

Should I go to LPU (Lovely Professional University) or Manipal University Jaipur for a B.Tech (IT)?

A
Admin Posted On : May 4th, 2024

As a former student of B.Tech IT at LPU, I can only provide information about my own college. Here are a few benefits of joining LPU for your B.Tech IT-

  1. Scholarships - LPU offers scholarships to those who perform well in 12th grade or various entrance exams. These scholarships continue for the entire B.Tech course. This brings down the course fee for meritorious students by a great extent. 
  2. Placements- The university performs quite well in IT placements. Companies like HTC and Cognizant visit the campus for mass recruitments, and offer decent salary packages to CSE and IT graduates. Other companies recruit a lesser number of students, but they offer handsome salary packages. For a hardworking IT student, LPU offers good placement opportunities.
  3. Faculty- The IT faculty is decent, and some of the teachers are very good.
  4. Exposure- LPU is home to students from various parts of the country, and thus, it offers excellent exposure. Each student gets a platform at LPU to enhance their skills and learn new things.

These are some of the many reasons I chose LPU for my B.Tech IT.

Should I go for MSIT Program at IIIT Hyderabad?

AG
Ankur Gupta Posted On : August 2nd, 2023
studied at International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad

My friend was a student of MSIT at IIIT Hyderabad. According to him, from a placements point of view, you should rather sit for PGEE conducted by IIIT Hyderabad and take admission into the M.Tech course offered by this institution.

 If you wish to land a job at Google, MSIT won’t allow you to sit for its placements. This is because Google doesn't hire MSIT students. Only M.Tech and B.Tech students are allowed to sit for the placements of top brands like Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Adobe, Amazon, Cisco, Walmart, Indeed, Uber, Samsung, etc. More than 150 companies visit the IIIT Hyderabad campus to hire B.Tech and M.Tech students. M.Tech CSE students are placed with an average package of around INR 31 LPA. 

MSIT course is like revising the concepts of Computer Science up to your B.Tech level. The only bonus is that you will get to do a project for every programming language. MSIT is useful if you belong to a non CS/IT background in B.Tech as it will allow you to learn Computer Science from basics.

Thus, for good placement offers, go for the M.Tech CSE/ M.Tech Computer Science and Information Security instead of the MSIT program at IIIT Hyderabad.

Here are a few tips for new graduates at the Manipal Institute of Technology

  • Develop social connections not only within college but outside the college too. Talk to students from different colleges to broaden your perspective.

How is IIT Kharagpur?

AC
Anumita Chatterjee Posted On : March 23rd, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur (IITK)

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.
