How is life at IIT, Jodhpur?

SR
Sayantan Ray Posted On : August 2nd, 2023
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology Jodhpur (IITJ) (Graduated 2021)

The permanent campus of IIT Jodhpur is spread across 872 acres. Life over here is pretty good. The senior-junior interaction is good and the peers are more like family members. Jodhpur does not offer much in terms of entertainment, however, we enjoy our campus life and try to make the most of it. 

There are two main fests, Varchas- the sports fest, and Ignus-the techno-cult-socio fest. Both these fests are conducted at a much greater level than other new IITs. Other than these two, there is the intra college fest- Spandan, the unplugged night, and Intra college technical fest-Nimble. Other than these, a lot more fun activities keep happening on campus. 

IIT Jodhpur is a small IIT, therefore, students from across streams get to actively participate in the clubs and fests. You will easily get PoRs here. The five societies at IIT Jodhpur include Arts and Design, Cultural, Sports, Technical, and Academic Research and Development.

The girls' hostel has a curfew set at 12 AM - 5 AM. Girls and boys are not allowed in each other’s hostel common area as of now. Both genders get equal opportunities in every respect and the faculty at IIT Jodhpur is learned and supportive.

Overall, life is quite great at IIT J and I am quite happy to be a part of it.

What is meant by evening colleges of DU?

JT
Jayant Thakur Posted On : October 10th, 2022
Student at University of Delhi

Classes at the evening college start in the afternoon and end in the evening.

The curriculum, degree, classes, principal (in most cases), canteen, and location are all the same for the morning and evening batches.

However, the cutoffs differ; evening colleges have a lower cutoff than morning colleges. It has a different faculty and administration and is less crowded than the morning classes.

It differs from one college to the next. Some evening colleges are excellent, while others are on par with government schools. Teachers are present, but students don't actually care, and vice versa.

So, students with lower percentages in their XII standard are more likely to be admitted to evening colleges.

If you want to attend evening college, you don't have to feel inferior to morning students because many students from evening colleges have topped the DU exam.

Ultimately, it is up to you to consider and make decisions wisely. Many students attend evening colleges and then go to coaching to prepare for exams such as UPSC and SSC in the morning.

PR
Prashant Ranjan Posted On : September 21st, 2023
Christian Medical College and Hospital, Vellore

CMC Vellore is among the top 5 medical colleges in India. The unique aspect that sets it apart from other medical colleges is that it just doesn't make you a good doctor but also a good person. It focuses on the holistic development of the students such that earning money is not their end goal. 

The second most appealing aspect is the faculty pool who are extremely eager to impart education and share their knowledge and experience with their students. The learning facilities are top-notch, the labs are well-equipped and the patient flow is also good.

Another good thing about the institute is that the patients are kind enough to let students interact with them and examine them, which is not the case in most big colleges. This is also why CMC Vellore students have better clinical exposure. 

The hospital receives many complicated and rare cases because it’s a tertiary care center, so there are ample opportunities for research. You can approach any faculty member if you are interested in starting a project and they will guide you. 

CMC Vellore has many exchange and elective programs with prestigious institutes like Karolinska Institute and Uppsala (both Sweden), NUS (Singapore), Kyoto University (Japan), places in Australia, as well as IISc Bangalore. This strengthens its alumni base that now spread across the globe in various positions in hospitals, governments, the WHO, etc. 

CMC Vellore's unique trait is its focus on community health and development. Students are made aware of the problems that rural and urban India is facing right from the beginning. 

The college gives equal importance to extracurriculars and students can be seen involved in many activities like music, dance, drama, and various sports. 

CMC Vellore is an amazing choice in terms of academics, opportunities, exposure, and experiences.

Is AIIMS Rishikesh too strict and disciplined for students?

Muskan Shafi Posted On : April 2nd, 2024

There is a certain level of strictness and discipline in medical colleges. A medical student needs to be dedicated and disciplined to ace academics. Hence, medical colleges do maintain strict rules and regulations to train students to become better doctors in future. 

It is a misconception that AIIMS Rishikesh is too strict and disciplined for students. In comparison, with other medical colleges such as MAMC, AFMC Pune and other AIIMS, AIIMS Rishikesh is less strict. However, the institution is very disciplined concerning attendance, assignment submissions and behaviour of students on campus. Some professors do not allow latecomers as a way of teaching students the importance of discipline. Sometimes, students might experience academic pressure and the campus environment at AIIMS Rishikesh will help students experience peace and serenity. 

In case of any injustice, students can reach out to the study body welfare association at AIIMS Rishikesh which is dedicated to helping students.
