Would you rather take the lowest ranked/semi pvt medical college somewhere in India or take a drop and get AIIMS/MAMC Delhi? Why?

SK

Lives in New Delhi

The question is quite subjective and depends on your performance whilemoroaring for the entrance exams and your expectations from it. In my opinion, joining the lowest ranked medical college is not a wise decision considering the efforts you have already invested and are willing to do so more. Had I been in your place, I would have taken a back without any second thoughts 

However, if your goal was just to grab a seat and the brand value of the institute does not matter, then you can join even a low ranked college without much thought. 

Lastly, here is a piece of advice for those taking a drop year. Don’t target only AIIMS and MAMS, rather keep your option wide. Trust me India has many other reputed medical colleges too. Limiting your options will actually limit your opportunities too!

How is your experience at BITS Pilani? What did you get? What did you expect?

AM
Aditi Mukharjee Posted On : July 3rd, 2023
studied at Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani

My sister's experience at BITS Pilani was nothing short of magic as she recounts the best hearts of her life there. Like any other student, she had many expectations from her dream college. She yearned for the overall development people talked about at BITS Pilani. She had a list of expectations from making new friends to inculcating skills like independence, personal responsibility, and self-discipline. The institute lived up to its name and all her expectations were fulfilled beyond imagination. 

She met the best people who were her support system throughout the 4 years. The campus was huge and peaceful with its natural beauty. Every interest and skill could be cultivated in well-established clubs and departments. 

The classes were quite interesting and motivated her to be attentive and regular despite the No attendance rule. This instilled in her a sense of responsibility. Organizing the Oasis was another fun-filled experience and the frequent trips to Khetri, Pahadi, Jaisalmer, and Dharamshala, were out-of-the-world experiences. She got to connect herself to nature and adopt gratitude. 

The 4 years changed her personality as a whole for the better and today she gives credit to BITS Pilani for her overall development and successful career.

What is the CW category cutoff in the Delhi University? I have not seen the CW list published in the DU UG lists.

UK
Utsav Kamra Posted On : October 10th, 2022
Studied B.Sc from University of Delhi

The DU information Bulletin makes little mention of the procedure/selection under the CW category. Because there is no separate cut-off for this category, it is impossible to know whether one is eligible for the first, second, or third cut-off, and so on.

PROCEDURE: 

  1. Report on time for your priority category in the central conference hall near the Department of Botany on North Campus. Keep in mind that no documents are required for the CW category, but you should have an education concession certificate in the same format as described in DU information Bulletin, and the letterhead should include your complete address and contact information so that they can verify your certification. In addition, you should bring the PPO, DISCHARGE BOOK/SERVICE BOOK, and all other related documents in both original and self-attested copies. 

  2. If you have all of the required documents, they will give you a form to fill out with your information and preferences for colleges and courses in priority order.

  3. You will receive an admission provisional slip addressed to the college's principal, most likely from the Administrative Block/Conference Hall, with your name on it. 

  4. When you receive the provisional admission slip, you have completed 80% of the process. After receiving your provisional slip, report to your assigned college with all of your documents in original and one set of self-attested copies. However, before enrolling in college, you must apply through the DU website student Dashboard. Take a printout of the same under the link that is still active.

  5. Once the college has approved your admission, pay the fee immediately. There is no need to postpone the process to secure your admission.

What is the first year MBBS student age in AIIMS Delhi?

RS
Rajashree Sengupta Posted On : September 22nd, 2021
MBBS from All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi

Medical Council of India (MCI) has guidelines that the minimum age of a student must be 17 years as of 31st December of the admission year. 

For example, if you have taken admission in 2021, then you must be 17 years old before 31st December 2021. 

The highest age limit is similarly 25 years old. Of course, there are age relaxations on the upper limit based on the reservation system. But most of the students would be in the age range of 17-19 years old. 

I would say that roughly 30% - 40% of the students are 17 years old and the rest are 18, 19, or 20 years old. The majority of the students are either fresh out of school or 1-year drop students.

What is your opinion about the Anna University results?

K
Karthikeyan Posted On : December 1st, 2022
Studied at Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India

The general opinion regarding the results of Anna University is don’t expect anything. There is no proper strategy behind their checking. There is a very poorly organized and careless system for the same. Hundreds of students complain about their shocking marks and final retort to revaluation. The cost of revaluation is extremely high. It seems that it’s the university’s strategy to earn money. 

The results at Anna University are always unsatisfactory and many students apply for revaluation every year.

What are the chances of converting NMIMS Mumbai call?

RP
Rohit Pandey Posted On : February 28th, 2023
MBA from SVKM's NMIMS (Graduated 2018)

Compared to other entrance exams, NMAT is a relatively easier one. But because most students that sit for NMAT want to get into NMIMS so the competition is tough. So just getting across the cutoff is not sufficient, you need to aim for the highest.

The other aspects of the admission process through NMAT include

  • NMAT score
  • Personal Interview
  • Case Discussion
  • Academic record
  • Work Experience
  • Academic/Gender diversity

One needs to keep certain points regarding NMAT in mind. Firstly an excellent score does not guarantee admission. You have to ace the CD and PI rounds as well. But overall the chances of conversion are high due to high intake provided that you perform well in CD and PI. Separate rounds of CD and PI are held for Core and HRM. Also, NMIMS has a 30% reservation for girls.

Some tips that will increase your chances of conversion to NMIMS are

SOP: Your Statement of Purpose should clearly state why MBA, that too from NMIMS. It should state valid reasons as to why you should be selected over other students by mentioning your unique traits.

Case Discussion: The Case Discussion round is more to analyze your personality than your knowledge. So follow the rules throughout and give 2-3 solid points and give others an equal opportunity. Don't validate your opinion rudely at all.

Personal Interview: The interview is usually conducted by 3 panelists. If you have work experience, you will be questioned regarding that. For instance your role in your previous company and achievements. They will also question your goals after your MBA and which industry you have chosen and why. To stay on the safer side, be well-versed in current affairs. Also, don’t lose your calm at any given moment.
