What are some helpful tips for students starting their first year at Amrita University?

The first year can be considered a cakewalkif you are well versed in the subjects taught in the 11th and 12th standards.

• There is an additional topic called Auto CAD for which you would require a little bit of imagination.
• The curriculum has Cultural studies and it is a very nice subject. It would be probably the best and knowledgeable course taught in the 1st year of college.
• When it comes to the marking scheme, score well in the quizzes and the periodical tests. They would prove to be a very good asset for you in the future. Try to maintain a good SGPA over 9.
• The college faculty is very strict about the attendance criteria, keep that in mind.
• Transfer from one branch to another can happen upon request but you must score good marks in your first year. Preferably a score above 9.0 SGPA can help make the transfer process easier for you.
• The seniors are considered to be very respectable people here at the college. Just respect them enough if and only they deserve the respect.

I think this much information would be enough for a first-year student, the rest of the experiences that you will have would be experienced by you.
