How is the Mathematics and Computing in IIT Guwahati?
For a genuine math lover, Mathematics and Computing program at IIT Guwahati is a literal treat. You need to be proficient in Math to take up this course. The syllabus includes core math concepts combined with knowledge of CS as well. Towards the end, the math is confined to statistics and finance. The syllabus is not very flexible initially but becomes so in the last two semesters.
Here are a few pros and cons pertaining to the course
Pros:
- The MnC branch boasts excellent placements second only to the CS department. The placement percentage stood at 91.94%. Out of the total 62 students that opted for placements, 57 were able to secure decent jobs. However, finance firms and banks are yet to realize the true potential of this department. One can get an INR 20 LPA by doing a decent internship and maintaining a good CGPA.
- Excellent Master's opportunities are even better than CS students. This is the best option for those planning to get a master's abroad. To upgrade your CV, you can do internships and choose electives accordingly. All this will increase your chances of admission to CSE, data science, finance, and mathematics.
- Job opportunities: This program has excellent opportunities in terms of jobs as well as research and many fields are open to hire students of this course.
Cons
- The rigidity of the syllabus makes it the jack of all trades master of none. You cannot choose the elective according to your interest during the initial years. Many useless courses add to the overall workload with no increase in knowledge.
- Those who aren’t into finance may find it difficult to cope with it as it’s impossible to drop finance courses during the initial years.
In the near future when the IT industry will be at its peak, MnC might be better than CSE in terms of monetary benefits. If you aren’t certain about your area of interest, then Maths and Computing are definitely better than all core branches except CS.

IIT JEE is the national-level exam for Class 12 students for admission to IITs while the entrance exam to BITS is the only engineering entrance exam in India to evaluate candidates on the basis of Logical Reasoning and English language skills as well.
I have drawn a general comparison between the 2 institutes on the basis of some common aspects

We can safely conclude that placement scenario at IIT Bombay is better than BITS.
Campus life: BITS Pilani has a better campus life and culture than IIT Bombay. It boasts of a well-planned campus, libraries and hostel facilities. It has a unique concept wherein students take tutorials from their various teachers. Its cultural event Grubs is quite popular in engineering students.
Fees: IIT Bombay Total fee is around INR 9,50,000 (BTech) whereas BITS semester-wise fees is 2,31,500/-
Since IITs are run by the government, studying at IIT is cost-effective whereas BITS are expensive.
Infrastructure: Both IIT campuses and BITS Pilani campuses have top notch infrastructure. However, most of the new IITs lack a permanent campus and are also facing a lack of a good faculty positions. BITS has a limited number of campuses that are well-established and it is known to upgrade its world-class infrastructure on a regular basis keeping up with changes in technology.
Faculty: BITS Pilani attracts the best faculty from India and abroad. It offers better salary and more freedom to its teaching staff. Whereas IITs often face faculty issues. Many new IITs depend on guest faculty or visiting faculty to conduct their classes.
I would suggest you to choose IIT mainly because of low fees and the IIT tag.

Both LHMC and MAMC have a similar quality crowd and even the location is similar. In fact, LHMC is just 2 km away from MAMC. MAMC however, is nearer to the metro station.
LHMC takes postings seriously. The girls are given a lot of freedom so LHMC not being a co-ed hardly affects the quality of their campus life in any way. In fact, it makes it better because of the unimaginable freedom.
Both the colleges have a decent academic ambiance. LHMC is well-known for its OB-GYN and Pediatrics departments. Girls get a lot of hands-on experience and are trained excellently under the guidance of experienced faculty.
