What am I missing out on joining IIM Kozhikode over IIM A B C ? How is it gonna affect me in the long run?

The average package you'll accept is determined by your own efforts. When compared to ABC, the level of competition will be slightly lower throughout.

More importantly, IIM-K is known for its greenery rather than its competitive academics, which is unfortunate but does not imply that people are not intelligent. When compared to IIM- ABC, the level of library facilities is lower.

It's good that you have AMBA accreditation and some other important accreditation for a B-school.

When compared to the top three IIMs, the level of teaching and research would be comparable or slightly lower. Although admission to IIM-K is not easy, your talent is appreciated. There will be numerous opportunities for you to reinvent yourself.

studied at Savitribai Phule Pune University (2020)

Calculating the percentage from your CGPA/SGPA is very simple.

As per the guidelines provided by SPPU(Pune University), you need to multiply your CGPA/SGPA by 8.8.

For example,If your SGPA is 8.5, then, your equivalent percentage is - 8.5 * 8.8 = 74.8%.

Which is the toughest subject in VNIT nagpur?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : November 20th, 2023
B.Tech ChemE from Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology, Nagpur (2019)

I graduated from VNIT Nagpur a few years back. This story is from my 6th semester days. 

A friend of mine was appearing for his Math-II end-sem exam. He was giving his 3rd attempt at the time. His slots for that year were B, C, D, F, G, H. He had enrolled in 6 subjects. 

He was afraid that he would fail Math-II once again. However, this time he decided to try his best, and studied religiously. He just needed 20 marks to pass the exam, but the Mathematics faculty follows the binary-correction pattern. So he was sure that getting sufficient grades would be as challenging as before. 

Ultimately, he passed the Math-II exam. But having given the paper well filled him with so much confidence that he failed the remaining C, D, F, G, H slots. 

This is a funny tale, and we often laugh while reminiscing about it. But this answer is intended to warn you about Math-II. It was quite a difficult subject, especially for my friend.

Among Ethiraj MOP WCC and Stella Maris which one is best to have fun college days?

DR
Deepika Roy Posted On : October 14th, 2021
B.Sc Education, Women's Christian College, Chennai

Ethiraj, MOP, WCC, and Stella Maris College offer excellent education and a mix of cultural events. They all encourage students to enjoy and experience great college life. They give participation opportunities in studies, NSS, NCC, Rotaract, extracurriculars, festivals, and other social events.

As all the colleges are women’s colleges, they have independence. You can dress your way. Mobiles are restricted on campus. The class hours are fun, and you would not prefer bunking classes.

WCC is the best college if your goal is to have a great college life. It not only gives you great exposure and tags you with its brand name. You get an opportunity to grow holistically. I have a few friends from WCC, and they are proud to be alumni of WCC.

How was your first month at LHMC as an MBBS student?

YG
Yashnavi Garg Posted On : October 5th, 2023
MBBS from Lady Hardinge Medical College

My friend shared her first-month experience as an MBBS student at LGMC. The initial days were very gloomy because almost everyone who failed to make it to their dream schools landed in LHMC. Also, the all-girls setting was somewhat new and difficult to adjust to after studying in co-ed all her life. However, soon everything started to become normal. She still vividly remembers how well her first dissection went. She made friends and their best hanging spot became the Statue of Lady Hardinge. All kinds of snacks from tea to noodles were available here. 

The seniors were surprisingly more friendly than expected and introduced juniors to various societies and extended parent-like support. Ragging did not exist even in the smallest form making the campus very safe. She witnessed her seniors organizing functions efficiently making her realize the all-girls environment gave more opportunities to girls here than a co-ed college would ever give. 

It was a month later that she realized that LHMC had never been her dream college or even her batchmates but the college warmly accepted everyone and would help her achieve her dream

How can I remove a backlog in AKTU? Is there a marked over result if I cleared it?

TB
Tridha Banerjee Posted On : August 24th, 2022
M.Tech computer science from Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University

If you have a backlog in a semester, you need to fill out a carryover form and retake the examination for that subject with your juniors. For odd semester subjects, you need to appear in the next odd semester and for even semester subjects, you need to appear in the next even semester. 

After you clear the backlog, AKTU will issue a new marksheet. The final result will show pass.

Shruti Dasgupta Posted On : August 5th, 2023
Student at Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani

BITS Pilani offers decent placement support to students from the M.Tech. and B.Tech. batches. The chances are higher for the one who has a master’s in Mechanical Engineering. BITS Pilani conducts the placement process in two semesters. During the first semester, about 15-20 companies, including Intel, Qualcomm, Broadcom, SanDisk, Nvidia, Cisco, and so on, visit the campus. In the second semester, the placement is done based on your CGPA, as the companies mostly prefer students who score a CGPA above 8.

Which is better: Engineering Physics at IIT Bombay or Electrical Engineering at IIT Roorkee?

SB
Sumit Bose Posted On : March 18th, 2023
IIT Bombay (2019)

It would be suggested to pursue Engineering Physics at IIT Bombay rather than Electrical Engineering at IIT Roorkee. 

When it comes to studying physics at IITB, there are some key differences between JEE physics and college-level physics. Here are some important points to keep in mind:

  • In JEE physics, you study formula derivations after brief explanations of concepts and practice a lot of problems in that topic. College-level physics courses are typically more rigorous in theoretical and mathematical content, and problems are solved to help you understand the concepts more deeply.
  • While EE does not have any pure physics courses after the first year, it focuses on making you an electrical engineer. Core courses include analog and digital electronics, signals and systems, network theory, electronic devices, microprocessors, power electronics, and some relevant math courses.
  • EP, on the other hand, has core courses like quantum mechanics, electrodynamics, statistics, relativity, classical mechanics, waves and optics, nuclear physics, etc. There are also important math courses up to your second year.
  • EP trains you in core physics concepts and prepares you for experimental physics and electronics, giving you many options for your career path. You can work in theoretical or experimental physics, electronics, statistics and stochastics, CS-related research, or pursue higher studies in physics.
  • When choosing between IITB and IIT Roorkee, consider factors like the quality of professors, campus culture, and location. IITB has excellent professors, a beautiful campus, and great cultural and sports scenes, and is close to TIFR, which provides opportunities for collaboration.
  • When it comes to placements, most EP students go for higher studies because they are passionate about physics. For EE, core and non-core jobs are similar to those for other courses in terms of job security and salary packages.

Finally, the "brand" of IITs, especially IIT Bombay, provides a sense of job security that can be reassuring for graduates.
