What are the 5 mistakes IES aspirant should avoid while starting their preparation?
The exam is very tricky, hence there are a lot of chances to make mistakes. Even a single mistake might knock you out of the competition. So, it is essential to keep some things in mind while preparing.
Improper Time Table:
- Not making a proper study timetable is one of the most common blunders.
- You need to make a clear preparation strategy for each subject and every topic after strongly analyzing the syllabus and its weightage.
- If not done properly, you might end up spending more time on a vast subject that has less weightage.

Hindu vs Hansraj vs Ramjas vs Miranda House — the "top DU colleges" comparison. Let me give you a subject-specific breakdown instead of a generic ranking.
Miranda House (all-women, off North Campus):
- NIRF Rank #1 college in India for 5+ consecutive years (2019-2024). Best for: Sciences, English, Sociology.
- Strong alumni (politicians, academics, writers). Placement for pure liberal arts is contextual.
- Admission via CUET: Extremely competitive. One of DU's highest cutoff colleges.
Hindu College (North Campus, coed):
- Most "prestigious" overall DU brand in public perception. Best for: Commerce, Economics, History, Sciences.
- NIRF Top 10 consistently. Alumni in corporate India, civil services, academia.
- Best vibe for "typical DU college life" — strong cultural scene, Mecca (one of India's top college fests).
Hansraj College (North Campus, coed):
- Strong in Sciences (Chemistry is famous). Good for PCM courses. Placement support better than many DU colleges.
- Annual fest, good alumni in tech and sciences.
Ramjas College (North Campus, coed):
- Strong in Humanities — Political Science, Hindi, English are flag courses. Known for intellectual/political discussion culture.
Overall winner? Depends entirely on your subject. Miranda/Hindu neck-and-neck for top prestige. Hansraj for sciences. Ramjas for humanities. All four are genuinely excellent DU colleges.
Which is a better college Hindu ,Hansraj, Ramjas ,Miranda House as a whole?
Among these four colleges, the college order for the best college would be - Hindu>Hansraj>Miranda>Ramjas
- Hindu is the best among them as it has the best placements and is a place for many other opportunities like extra-curricular activities. Only the colleges like St. Stephens, LSR, and SRCC can compete with a college like Hindu.
- Hansraj is good for NSS, clubs, and the CSE department as it has a friendly and helpful faculty. It is a 30-minute distance from the metro and is far from the metro station.
- Miranda is the same as Hansraj but the only difference is that it is co-ed and is near the metro. In academics, it's the same as the Hansraj.
- Ramjas doesn't have a good administration nor a good crowd. Students have created chaos on the campus by involving in fights. Although, one needs to do good research before getting to a conclusion for Ramjas.
Therefore, Miranda, Hindu, and Hansraj would be better options. However, a student should take admission to Miranda College as it is near to the station and has a good cut-off.

How is the life of IPM IIM Indore students different from the life of students at IIT or NIT?
Because there are only 120 students, students will not be able to interact with students from different cultures, as opposed to engineering colleges, where there are 1000-2000 bachelor students, giving them the opportunity to interact with students from different cultures and organize a large number of events, cultural fests, sports events, concerts, and so on, thus enjoying college life. In terms of sports, IIM Indore offers the most options among all IIMs. Because the batch size is small, all students have the opportunity to contribute significantly to the fests and gain hands-on experience.
Cultural diversity is outstanding. If you want, you can learn a lot of languages in 5 years. Such a curriculum is not available anywhere else.
