Why is IIT Madras not popular like IIT Bombay/Delhi, though Chennai is a metropolitan city?

PR
Paridhi Rathi Posted On : March 16th, 2023
Master's in Chemistry, Indian Institute of Technology, Madras (IITM) (Graduated 2017)

Here are some points to consider if you're thinking why IIT Madras is not popular like IIT Bombay/Delhi, though Chennai is a metropolitan city:

  • IIT Madras is located in Adyar, which is easily accessible from the airport and Chennai Central and Egmore railway stations.
  • Chennai has plenty of sightseeing options, particularly its beaches, like Marina and Elliott, as well as nearby tourist locations like Mahabalipuram and Pondicherry.
  • However, Chennai's climate can be described as hot and humid throughout the year, with only slight variations in temperature between the three seasons. Mumbai, in comparison, has a cool breeze across the beachside in the evenings to cool you down.
  • Language could be a barrier in Chennai, although many non-Tamilians have settled here, and you can manage with a working knowledge of English. 
  • Finally, IIT Madras consistently ranks at the top in the NIRF rankings for back-to-back years, which is a testament to its research facilities, faculty, and infrastructure.

Overall, while Chennai has some concerns, it is by no means an inferior option compared to other cities, and IIT Madras could be an excellent choice for you.

What is the market value of a PG Diploma in Cyber Law from NALSAR University, Hyderabad?

SD
Saunak Dasgupta Posted On : September 3rd, 2021
NALSAR University of Law, Hyderabad (2020)

My brother recently graduated from Nalsar University, so I can give you some information regarding the institute.

There is no real (job) market value of doing a PG diploma in Cyber Law from NALSAR Hyderabad if you’re a non-law graduate. This diploma won’t fetch you a cyber laws-related job or earn you a raise or a promotion.

You will find this degree useful only if you have an LLB or an LLM degree.

However, The course is great. Even if you are a non-law graduate, it will be an enriching experience for you especially if you can attend the contact classes which are normally organized by legal experts, experienced professors.

Now in the recent placement drive, the highest salary offered for PG Diploma in Cyber Law was INR 36 LPA and the average package offered was INR 6 LPA.

I got admission letter but my PCM aggregate is less than 60% (overall more than 60). I am yet to submit my marksheet, Will KIIT cancel my candidature?

MS
Medha Sen Posted On : August 31st, 2021

According to the conversations I had with my friends from KIIT, the institute is not known for canceling anyone’s candidacy. Very few engineering institutes in the country reject candidates. It has been seen in some government colleges that a lot of students enter through the donation system.

Since you have already received the letter of admission, you can be assured that your admission has been all but confirmed. KIIT only looks for the total percentage, not the percentage in PCM. If your aggregate percentage is higher than 60% then your candidacy will not be canceled.

What are some suggestions to crack the AILET for an LLB to get admission into NLU Delhi?

HR
Harsh Ranade Posted On : September 13th, 2021
B.A.LL.B (Hons.) from National Law University,Delhi (2024)

AILET is a very unique exam among all law entrance tests with few characteristics. One of my cousins graduated from NLU Delhi. Let me share some things I got to know from her, which might be useful.

  • The average attempt time per question is the same as CLAT (36 sec), the scope for experimentation is quite less since the test is 90 min long.
  • Being a paper-based test, marking answers on OMR sheets can be time-consuming. 
  • The upside is to flip pages and glance through multiple questions in one go. Use this to your benefit.
  • The LA section is mostly marked by the assertion-reasoning type of questions. This feature is not as regular in CLAT and AILET. So keep practicing.
  • Unlike CLAT math, AILET does not ask much. Most questions need a few steps of calculation to get to the answers. The selection of questions is important here.
  • AILET GK is generally based on your overall knowledge about current trends, your subject, etc. 

These are some things I got to know from my friend on how to prepare for AILET for an LLB degree at NLU Delhi.

Can I apply for more than one master course at ISI Kolkata?

RD
Rupsha Dasgupta Posted On : September 17th, 2021
MS(QMS) from Indian Statistical Institute (2018)

Yes, you can apply for more than one master’s course at ISI Kolkata but you won’t be able to appear for more than one entrance examination. 

  • All the entrance exams are conducted on the same day at the same time, therefore you will not be able to appear for more than one examination.
  • Technically you can fill the application forms for more than one examination if you are a bit confused at present and want to have safe options. You can apply using two different email IDs to register and make the payments for both of them.

But in the end, you will have to decide which exam you want to prepare for and appear in.

What is the difference between spot admission and real time admission in CUSAT?

RG
Rajashree Ghosh Posted On : July 29th, 2021
Studied at Calcutta University (2019)

One of my friends is from CUSAT. I have gathered some facts about spot admission and real-time admission from him. So I will be sharing these which might help you answer your question.

  • There will be a few rounds of counseling, and all seats will be filled according to rank, reservation, and other factors.
  • Certain vacancies will arise as a result of certain candidates failing to pay fees/submit all required paperwork or canceling their admission to enroll elsewhere.
  • These positions are filled through Spot admissions, in which all candidates in the rank list are invited to appear and select their preferred branch/campus if space is available.
  • A few days before the date of Spot admission, the available positions are announced on the Internet.
  • Real-time admission is a more dynamic approach in which vacated seats in spot admission are filled instantly from among those candidates who are physically present at the session and are ranked accordingly.

Remember one thing that there is no advance notice for vacant seats, and it is not uncommon for candidates who have already been admitted to particular branches to choose other branches/campuses.

How can I get into NIT Trichy with my NATA score for pursuing a B.Arch?

RP
Rita Padnekar Posted On : August 30th, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India (2018)

Apparently, NITs do not generally accept NATA scores for B.Arch admissions. On the flip side, what they do consider is admission via Joint Seat Allocation Authority, abbreviated to JoSAA, which is basically the acceptance on the basis of JEE Mains for B.Arch, via paper-2. Besides, it also partially depends whether or not you are from the home state. 

If you have appeared for the JEE B.Arch paper 2 examination, then you can apply for the Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA), the dates of which can be known through the online panel as per the authorities.

You can check the cut offs of NIT Trichy as was proclaimed in the previous years’ for home state students, alongside those from other states as well. However, your JEE Mains score is considered too and shall be at least above 200, for further selection.

Can a dropper convert the GD/PI to an admission in Nitie? If, yes what are the consequences the person has to suffer during the span of the course and in placements?

RD
Rahul Das Posted On : August 11th, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Industrial Engineering (2018)

There are a number of students in the new sessions who hold a bit of a gap in their education. Being a dropper is not a big deal and does not possess any destructive concerns. 

However, some of the companies do take it into account as a negative consequence during the placement process. But do not let your spirits down and face it head on. It’s the skills you possess that would help you to make it through the entire process.

What are the various career paths available for law graduates from NLSIU, NALSAR, etc?

JK
Jyoti Kakkar Posted On : September 1st, 2021
Completed LLB in Bachelor of Law (LL.B) & Commercial Laws of India, Army Institute of Law in 2020

Law is a profession that promises a lot of versatility. According to some of my friends who opted for Law, you can pursue a number of avenues if you have a degree in law. Some of them include:

  • Judiciary: If you are interested in joining the judicial level then go for IJS. It conducts competitive exams, prelims, finals, interviews and also training. It is very similar to the IAS.
  • Teaching: Once you complete your Masters, you will have to crack the NET or the National Eligibility Test which is conducted by the UPSC and start working as an assistant professor in a government college or university. Some private institutes even accept candidates who have not cleared the NET.
  • General Counsel: You can also join a company and work as their in-house legal advisor. You will take care of compliance and be in charge of settling disputes faced by the company.
  • Law Firm: You can try being a legal associate with a law firm. The compensation you will receive is directly proportional to the reputation of the firm.
  • LPO: You can work as an associate of a firm that is involved in outsourcing and caters to high profile clients. This may also include contracts. This can get you international exposure.

Last but not the least; you can try your hand in litigation: This is the most traditional form of law practice. You will have to go to courts, interact with clients, address the jury and judges, etc. This will get you a lot of clout.

AK
Arjun Keshri Posted On : September 13th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science Engineering,Indian Institute of Technology Ropar (2022)

According to some of my friends studying at IIT Ropar, the starting days of college consists of an Induction Programme under ISMP (Institute Student Mentorship program) in which the students are allotted a mentor for any inconveniences. 

  • These mentors would be guiding the students for everything and would make students know the campus and would introduce them to the seniors. 
  • Followed by this, there would be an orientation program common to all departments which would introduce students to the demo sessions of various clubs like dance, dramatics, music, fine arts, etc., and the sports facilities. 
  • Apart from these, the coding, robotics, aeromodelling sessions would be held. 
  • Along with these, there would be night jamming sessions and fun activities to help students get mixed up. 
  • The seniors are all good and helpful. 
  • The student can showcase all his/her talents in the IIT Ropar’s campus on a cultural night. 
  • The environment of the college is decent and outstanding.

There is no sort of ragging which takes place in IIT Ropar. There is an Anti-Ragging community on the campus of IIT Ropar with the motto of "Ragging is crime and reward is jail". If any situation of ragging arises, he/she can directly contact the mentor or any other teacher. No kind of ragging takes place in IIT Ropar.
