Which is better for CSE, IIT Bombay or IIT Kharagpur?
The quality of Education, the faculty pool, and even the lab facilities offered at both IITs are similar. There might be slight differences as far as internships are concerned because the top companies with coding profiles visit both IITs but the interview process is quite different.
The main reason for this difference is the location of both institutes. In the case of IIT Kharagpur, recruiters prefer taking a skype interview than personally visiting the campus because of the isolated location of the institute. This plays against the favor of IIT Kharagpur as face-to-face interviews are way better than online interviews. Online interviews do not convey the information and expressions rightly and there is a communication gap.
Companies tend to judge IITs based on rankings which depend on their respective placements. For instance, the same profile and role are offered with a higher package at IIT Kharagpur but with a lower package at other IITs.
While IIT KGP CSE has a wide scope if you have achieved a top JEE Rank and have managed to get into IIT Bombay, go for it.
Why some of the IITs such as IIT-M IIT-B are still called as IIT Madras & Bombay even though the cities have been changed to Chennai and Mumbai?
IIT Bombay and IIT Madras were established in 1958 and 1959 respectively. Both these institutions have emerged as highly renowned centers of Engineering studies in India. Both IIT Bombay and IIT Madras are more than an institution, they are in fact a brand with a high relevance and strong network in the industry.
The ‘Bombay’ or ‘Madras’ is a part of this brand name. This is not the address of these institutions, as both these cities have long been renamed as Mumbai and Chennai respectively. The institution name has not been altered because of the prestige and legacy carried by both these titles.
Thus, IIT Bombay and IIT Madras haven’t been renamed over the years.
How was your interview experience at IIM FMS MDI XLRI SP JAIN NMIMS SIBM SCMHRD etc, being from a commerce background?
I’ve got a a friend from commerce background, who attended the SIBM Pune interview. Here’s his experience in brief.
Profile:
- Academics: 10th- 8.6 CGPA, 12th- 67%, Undergrad- 72.7%
- No work experience
The process starts with verification later group numbers are allotted and seating arrangements are made accordingly. Then starts the GEWAT process.
Group Exercise - 1: Basically it is a game of Tetris. During the first 5 minutes, you will be asked to solve a puzzle and in the next 5 – 7 minutes you can strict to your own puzzle or try to solve it as a team. In my friend’s case, no one was able to solve the puzzle within the assigned time.
Written ability test: A video is played for which you have to write the summary with an apt title in the allotted time. For my friend, it was a video of a man walking down the street with a briefcase. And suddenly he changes into a fishnet stocking, puts on a wig, and walks away.
Group Exercise 2: This is a case discussion. Prepare for topics like political issues, business strategies, and other common topics.
Personal Interview: You will be assigned a topic outside the interview room and given a minute to think. They will ask questions based on the topic in the interview. Personal questions apart from your academics are asked related to family background, questions regarding your resume, hobbies, etc. Some of the questions that my friend remembers being asked are as follows.
- Why do an MBA rather than pursuing a job?
- What did you do since your graduation?
- What is your family background?
- What are your hobbies?
- What are 3 things that you are unaware of yourself?
Later documents like snap admit cards and mark sheets will be verified.
How was your first day at NIT Surat (SVNIT)?
I had a mixed experience on my first day at SVNIT.
As a fresher, I was allotted a hostel room in GAJJAR BHAVAN. I found a huge crowd of freshers arriving at the hostel entrance. I signed the muster and went inside my hostel room. I had already seen my room during physical reporting, so I was not disappointed at all. I set up my room with the help of my mother, after which, I approached a senior who advised me to get a bicycle because my hostel is quite far from the new CRC building. While I was returning from the bicycle shop, it started raining heavily.
I reached my hostel somehow, and upon finishing all the formalities, me and my parents went to the mess to have our lunch. Upon finishing my lunch, I bid farewell to my parents. This was when I realized that I was on my own. I somehow managed my emotions and consolidated my weeping mother.
After all that, I met a school friend who had fortunately gotten a room beside mine. We finished our dinner a few hours later, and went into my room. But there was a power cut soon after, and it lasted the next morning. I was a bit disappointed. My first night at the hostel was spent without a fan in the month of July.
Despite all the difficulties, it was a start to an amazing journey. This is why I’ll never forget my first day at SVNIT. Also, not to forget, the mess food is actually good at our college.

As a final year MBBS student at CMC Vellore, I can offer you some insights on the benefits of joining CMC.

Which one should I choose, IISc Bangalore or IIT Madras?
There are two aspects of an engineering degree; a corporate and a research-oriented outlook. If you are someone who wants to enter the corporate world, IIT Madras has much better opportunities. There are a number of companies that come with decent roles. The campus life at IIT Madras with personality development through activities and fests is much more suitable for those aiming for corporate life.
However, if you are targeting the research area, no institute has better facilities than IISc Bangalore. Many IITians apply every year for a summer internship at IISc. the quality of projects you will be working on combined with the top-notch faculty guidance offers a smooth pathway for higher studies at top foreign universities.
However, if you aren't sure of your area of interest yet, choose IIT Madras as it excels in both corporate lives as well as research facilities. Thus you will have many options to choose from.

Why do students at BITS Pilani, Goa lack "technical skills"?
Firstly, The students from BITS Pilani, Goa, got exposed to club activities in non-technical fields in the first year itself, which played a major role in decreasing their interest in the core subjects and starting to cross over to other nontechnical skills. They only understood their exact passion for the core subject after doing the compulsory branch courses in the third year. And they finally started to build up their technical skills in the last year. This tendency only leads to a lack of experience in the technical field.
Secondly, most of the students here are not actually passionate about their courses because cut-offs decided their careers. This lack of interest decreases productivity.
Thirdly, the students give more importance to the CGPA and have the tendency to mug up every topic without having a deep understanding. Of course, a CGPA is good for higher education. But most of the students end up lacking technical skills in their field due to this tendency.
And there are so many other reasons, including a lack of course projects and electives, an increase in competitive coding culture, and so on.
