Lives in Jalandhar, India

If you're trying to decide between different universities or institutes, there are a few things to keep in mind. Here are some important points to consider:

It's important to avoid getting caught up in the hype and excitement around certain universities or institutes. While people may be very passionate about their Alma mater, it's important to approach the decision with a level head and consider all the relevant factors.
Don't be swayed by analogies that may not actually apply to your situation. For example, comparing universities to cars in different price ranges may not be helpful if your main concern is finding a good education that fits your needs and goals.
Don't dismiss a university or institute based solely on its closing ranks or other ranking metrics. These numbers can be misleading and don't necessarily reflect the quality of education or opportunities available at a given institution.
Don't assume that older institutions are always better than newer ones. While it's true that some older universities have a great reputation and long history of excellence, there are also many newer institutions that are carving out their own niche and offering great programs and opportunities.
When choosing a college, it's important to focus on your chosen field of study first and then consider other factors like location, campus culture, available resources and facilities, faculty expertise, and job placement opportunities.
Talk to current students and recent alumni to get a better sense of what life is really like at a particular institution. They can offer insights and advice based on their own experiences that can be invaluable when making your decision.
Keep in mind that your choice of university or institute will have a significant impact on your future career and personal development. It's important to take the decision seriously and do your research to make the best choice possible.
