What is the best advice a senior gave you at BIT Mesra?

My brother is from BIT Mesra, so I think I can help you by answering this.

• The most common mistake that first-year students make is joining several of the clubs in the mistaken belief that these decisions would pay off in the long run.
• My brother was fortunate to have a senior who advised him not to join these clubs, but instead to seek out clubs such as ACM, IEI, UNESCO, and others that have minimal politics and invited students to join the club based on their performance in the various activities of the club.
• As a CSE student, he followed and participated in ACM activities religiously. This not only helped him improve himself, but it also gave him the self-belief and confidence that everyone needs to succeed in their professional life.

The same senior advised him to maintain a good CGPA throughout the academic year. He also asked him to practice coding.

In short, ACM and/or open-source stuff is the way to go for a CSE guy.
