Here are a few valuable tips which Inas a senior would like to give to my juniors to make their journey at IIT Kanpur, a tad bit easier.
Never underestimate the importance of CPI as it’s a major determining factor for employability. You will lose out on high job opportunities if your CPI is below 8.
Socialize well with your wingmates as they will become your family seats from home and your connection is bound to continue even after a decade of passing out.
Don’t force extracurricular activities on yourself just for the sake of a resume and do them only if you are genuinely interested. This is because you will not be able to manage your time well and your CPI will be affected in the process.
Don’t pay much heed to the advice of second-year students as they have little knowledge about placements. It’s better to approach a final-year student for advice on the same.
Approach the professors frequently and develop a rapport with them. Ask them for career advice and such
Adopt one activity that will keep you physically fit and be consistent in that. It can be anything from a simple exercise to joining a gym or swimming.
Develop excellent communication and presentation skills
Start planning for the future and working on it from the 6th semester itself.
Trust me when I say IIT Kanpur offers the most enriching academic experience the country can offer!
