Is Hamirpur a very cold place? Should I take climate into account before joining NIT Hamirpur or IIIT Una?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : September 13th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

No, NIT Hamirpur is not a very cold place. Its surrounding area of snow-clad mighty Dhauladhars might give the impression that it's extremely cold here but in reality, there isn't any snowfall. This is because the campus is situated approximately 4km from the main town and is at a higher elevation.

The climate here is very pleasant and the vegetation is also impressive. Even during the hottest days, the temperature does not go beyond 27°C). During winters, the temperature ranges between 16-18°C, and it is mostly sunny outside. However, if you are from the Northern area of India, you might find the winters in even semesters (January) very cold. Winter is followed by spring, one of the best times of the year. Most of the summer days are spent on holidays so that isn't a big problem.

Overall, the winter season at NIT Hamirpur does not ring in extreme weather conditions and the cold climate is usually bearable. You can pack accordingly after considering the weather conditions throughout the year.

Which campus between BIMM and BIMHRD of Sri Balaji Society of Pune shall I select if I am interested in Finance and HR?

SB
Suresh Bose Posted On : May 30th, 2021
MBA in Marketing & Brand Strategy, Sri Balaji Society, Pune (2018)

You should go for BIMM without thinking twice. I will give you good reasons for that.

  • SBS Finance is meant for people who exclusively want to opt for Finance as a career choice and if we talk about SBS Finance, nothing matches it!
  • In case you want to go for HR, there would be two great options as well- BIMHRD-HR and BIMM-HR. You should opt for BIMM as all the great and reputed companies prefer to visit this particular institute among the rest.

But that does not mean BIMHRD is not the right choice. In fact, if there is an institute that is actually as brilliant as BIMM, that without a doubt, is BIMHRD. Considering every crucial aspect that is taken into consideration, be it placements, infrastructure, faculty- everything is covered under BIMHRD. 

Overall, studying at Sri Balaji Society will be a rollercoaster ride for you.

What would I miss if I join Dr. RMLIMS instead of KGMU, Lucknow?

Sayantani Barman Posted On : September 26th, 2023

If you join Dr RMLIMS instead of KGMU, Lucknow, you would be missing the opportunity to be a part of one of the top 5 medical colleges of India. You would miss the Georgian tag. You will miss the rich legacy attached to the institute. You would miss campus life at a huge college. You will miss the amazing infrastructure no use. RMLIMS is an excellent medical college but it is still way behind KGMC by a significant margin. It has recently launched the UG course i.e. MBBS so it will take time to establish itself. 

All in all, KGMC is the better option at least as of now.
