I have to take admission in NIT this year but I am currently admitted in Magadh University College If I cancel my admission from my current college am I eligible for NIT with a 1 year gap?
Yes, you are eligible for NIT, if you opt-out from Magadh University. First, you should cancel your admission and make sure that your admission at NIT is confirmed.
My brother is a partial dropper and he joined NIT later. You will need to submit the gap certificate mentioning the reasons regarding the same. It is quite likely that they will accept your admission, despite the reasons you had. However, you will have to start from the first year. My brother informed the administration that he was preparing for IIT JEE while still studying at the college. The administration did not raise any questions.
There are various partial droppers who joined the institution while still preparing for JEE side by side, and are now part of institutes like IIT, NIT, and BITS. So, you have nothing to worry about. Just focus on submitting the required documents and follow the necessary steps.
Now it is up to you what you want to give as the reason for your drop year. But it’s best to state the truth.
Are MSIT, MAIT, DCE Ggn, and Chandigarh University reputed colleges?
The four institutes mentioned in the question are entirely different in terms of standards, facilities, placement, and overall development of students in the institute. The points below state their standards in the educational field, mentioning some of their advantages.
- MAIT and MSIT are reputed institutes in India and are much ahead of institutes like DCE GGN. So, no comparison can be drawn among them in the field of engineering.
- MAIT and MSIT are decent engineering colleges, offering good facilities on campus. Both the institutes have an excellent infrastructure and offer placement which is above average in most departments.
- Both MAIT and MSIT rank high in the Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University college rankings.
- Among the institutes considered, MAIT can be considered to be the best option. This is because of the zero percent attendance policy in the institute, which gives plenty of time to students for self-study and personal development.
So, some of the colleges on the list are very good engineering colleges, not all. Especially, MAIT is considered to be the best choice among them.
What makes Jaipuria Institute of Management (Lucknow, Noida, Jaipur, Indore) unique from other B-schools in India?
Most B-schools have accreditation from NBA so if you are planning to do a PGDM from them, it would be equivalent to an MBA. Additionally, they also have good NIRF ranking. Many of them also invite industry speakers since they are known to have good connectivity in all courses.
- The faculty is also very well qualified when it comes to teaching and industry experience.
- If you are planning to do an internship in the summer, this option is available too.
- You can avail a three-month summer internship, do numerous live projects as well as Harvard simulations. These can be included in the curriculum too.
- Jaipuria Institute also has another additional perk of mentorship. This has been made as a part of its curriculum.
- It helps students understand their potential, work on their strengths and weaknesses after evaluating them and all this ultimately helps students secure good placements after the program is over.
As far as other B-schools are concerned, many of them probably do not offer this unique opportunity of a mentorship program. They will not focus on individual development plans for the students. If you are looking for a similar provision, you should consider going to Jaipuria Institute.
Why is Cognizant not hiring Periyar University? Why are they looking for only graduation and not talent of the persons? Why dont they give opportunities?
Talent is not what companies seek, they wish to hire someone with average talent just to sell their products.
There is a training period given to someone who gets recruited as a fresher, and that costs money to the company and to recover that, they have a certain period of work assigned to the employee. Even though Cognizant doesn't have a bond, they have something similar.
If you were extremely talented, you wouldn't want to work for a client where your task involves running a SQL query, or preparing reports or even fixing bugs or testing if on a page all buttons are working or not.
You will want to leave as soon as possible which they don't want. So they hire people with an average IQ, those who can do the required tasks when they want and don't argue much.
What is the objective of admitting freshers in Ivy B-Schools like IIMs, FMS, JBIMS, SIMSREE, SPJIMR, XLRI, etc.?
It is important to note that there is a discrepancy in the Indian B-School scenario regarding work experience. During the admission process, college professors conducting interviews often favor candidates with prior work experience and award them extra points.
However, when it comes to recruiting, employers have different preferences. They tend to prefer freshers over individuals with prior work experience. This is because they believe that those with prior experience may not be as adaptable or suitable for certain roles. For example, in marketing profiles, recruiters believe that the best route into marketing is through a couple of years in sales, which often involves traveling to rural areas. For finance profiles, recruiters believe that those with prior work experience may not be willing to work the long hours required in finance.
In India, recruiters prefer freshers with up to 11 months of work experience over individuals with a large amount of experience.
It is worth mentioning that this preference for freshers may not hold true in foreign MBA programs. The distinction lies between a one-year executive MBA program and a traditional two-year MBA program in India. In the West, MBA programs are seen as a way to advance one's career, while in India they are often viewed as a means of securing high-paying jobs.
It is recommended that individuals with at least one year of work experience be admitted to an MBA program, as this will provide them with a clearer understanding of what they hope to gain from the course, rather than seeing it simply as a means to secure a job.
How much percentile is required to get a call from IIM Ranchi PGDHRM for a general category?
To be shortlisted for the IIM Ranchi PGDHRM program, it is generally required for a candidate to have a percentile of more than 92%. Keep in mind that the CAT score is not the only factor that is considered for the shortlisting process.
The graduation score and work experience are also taken into account, with a weightage of 15% and 10% respectively. Therefore, it is important to have a strong overall profile to increase the chances of being shortlisted for the program.
IIM Ranchi reserves the right to alter or modify the shortlisting and selection criteria for the MBA-HR program, as well as any other information related to the admissions criteria document, at any time if deemed necessary.
Irma vs IIM Udaipur. What do you think is a better choice? Considered I am interested in rural management as well as general management.
Without much thought, I will always choose IIM Udaipur over Irma. This is a viable option even if you are interested in Rural Management. In fact IIM Udaipur will offer you much more. You can choose from a plethora of industry functions. Rather than restricting your preferences, IIM Udaipur will enable you to broaden your career interests.
One of my friends is an IRMA pass-out. After interacting with her I realized that the students or the B School in general have a very shortsighted approach. It was after this that I was certain of IIM Udaipur’s credibility.
I'm getting PEC CSE (Chandigarh quota). I'm also thinking to take a drop and give JEE next year. Is it wise?
The answer probably is no. It is because you cannot always be certain about what the future beholds. My brother secured himself ECE in PEC Chandigarh some years back and pursued it. While at the same time, some of his friends decided to take another chance with JEE and dropped. There was no significant variation that they could achieve, which is rather unfortunate enough. But, at the same time, it depends on how your preparations are in the meantime.
If you choose to drop, there will be several issues you have to face. You are most likely to experience pressure to perform well by peers and family. One of my brother’s friends who dropped never actually scored below 180 in the institute’s mock tests, however, he missed even touching 180 in the examination only because of his state of mind a few days before the main test, during his revision period. That means, there can be uncertain events.
CSE at PEC Chandigarh is not a bad choice. It has decent placement statistics, you can check the official website for the same. The crucial point is having a backup plan regardless of the circumstance. It will help you support your own probable situations if you opt to take the examination.
Having said that, preparing for JEE mains yet again, while you pursue a degree is not that difficult if you are preserving.
