What things should I do to perform well in NICMAR?

Civil engineering students are typically thought to have poorer communication skills than students in any other field. Since NICMAR students are known for their strong communication abilities and are seen as proficient in the English language. This distinguishes them from other civil engineering graduates. Improve your communication abilities if you want a pleasant CTC. To enhance your public speaking, you need to present a variety of assignments and presentations in front of your class while attending NICMAR.

Assignments: Exams are quite easy to pass at NICMAR, where no one fails. Assignments are the only takeaway that matters from the trimester. Try doing assignments by yourself. You would also have easy access to the assignments of seniors, but don't replicate them; instead, utilize them as a guide to help you create a better assignment.

Maintaining general awareness will help you do well in group discussions (GDs) during the campus placement process. 

Thesis: A significant portion of your final percentile is determined by your thesis grades. The third trimester would be the due date for submitting your thesis subject. Finding a thesis topic of your own interest is a time-consuming task that requires you to spend a lot of time buried in books. If you are successful in doing so, half the battle is won. If not, you will choose an uninteresting thesis topic to meet the deadline, which will make the entire research process boring and ultimately affect your grades.

Theoretical Knowledge: Recruiting firms have been complaining for the past few years that NICMAR students don't have a solid foundation in civil engineering. A strong communication ability will get you through the personal interview stage of campus interviews, but after that, everything will come down to how much understanding you have of the NICMAR courses (PMST, Contracts, Financial Mgmt, etc.) and the basic civil engineering subjects.
