What is the eligible criteria for the AFCAT exam?

SD
Shivesh Dubey Posted On : February 15th, 2021
Studied BSc from Khalsa College

My brother took the Air Force Common Admission Test, popularly known as AFCAT. It is a tough exam to crack, but the good news is, that it's held twice a year. My brother cracked it in the second attempt and became a part of the Flying Branch. There are two other branches in addition to that: Technical Branch and the Non-Technical Branch with groundwork. 

To qualify for this year's AFCAT 2021 exam, you need to know the following:

Educational Qualification: 

  • To get into the flying branch, you'd need 60% or above in Physics and Maths in 12th; you should pass the BE/BTech level exam and get 60% or above marks in Section A and Section B tests by the Aeronautical Society of India or Associate Membership of Institution of Engineers (India). 
  • For non-technical work, you'd need clear gradation with 60% marks in any field and consecutively qualify the ASI or AMIE exams with 60% as well.

Nationality: Apparently, you can apply only if you're an Indian citizen.

Marital Status: 

  • This is an important one because either unmarried candidates below the age of 25 or married candidates above the age of 25 are eligible for application, even during the commencement of the course, they must remain so. 
  • If you're divorced or a widow, you'll be out of the race.

Mental and Physical Fitness: 

  • To join IAF you must be 162.5 cm. For the non-technical branch, male candidates should be at least 157.5 cm tall, and female candidates should be at least 152 cm tall. 
  • If you're from the North East, then a 5cm relaxation will be provided. 
  • The weight will have to be in proportion to your height and mental wellness is an important aspect of the scrutiny as well.

Age Limit: 

  • It depends on the branch and method of entry, the flying branch takes in students between the ages of 20-25. 
  • Candidates with a commercial license issued by the DGCA are given a relaxation. For non-technical posts candidates should be between 20-26. 
  • The upper age limit for flying branch aspirants is 26 years, there is no age relaxation for those interested in non-technical posts.

You won't be allowed to stay with your family during the training period, so keep that in mind. You must keep a check on the notifications which might vary from year to year, also the Testbook is a place for mock tests and resources. So you could use it for studying.

Studied at National Institute of Technology, Warangal (2019)

NIT Warangal is mainly oriented towards the courses BTech, MTech, and MCA. This institute is not good for MBAs. It is better to opt for institutes like IIMs, Symbiosis, ISB, etc. to get more exposure to the subject. So do not opt for NIT Warangal if you have better options in hand.

Do PG's at IIT Kharagpur get single room accommodation?

SG
Senjuti Gupta Posted On : March 22nd, 2023
studied at IIT Kgp

IIT Kharagpur considers its postgraduate students as a very important part of the IIT society and their accommodation is much better than undergraduates. Most postgraduates get single-room occupancy.

Recently, a new girl hostel named Sister Nivedita has been built for postgraduate students. The rooms of this hostel (single room occupancy) are almost 1.5 times bigger than the rooms of other hostels shared by three students. This hostel has better amenities and a much more relaxed environment than the older hostels

Another co-ed hostel in IIT Kharagpur is the Dr. B. R. Ambedkar Hall of Residence. This hostel is huge and has the best interiors among all the hostels and is one of the most coveted halls of residence in IIT Kharagpur.

There are some exceptions wherein postgraduate students are given double-sharing rooms in some hostels like the MMM Hall of residence.

What is your review of The University of Oklahoma?

AS
Aishwarya Sankhe Posted On : February 4th, 2021
Studied Biochemistry & Molecular Biology at The University of Oklahoma (2018)

The best part about the University of Oklahoma is that the fees are not exorbitant and it has a great reputation. It ranks at #133 in National Universities according to US News. The upper division classes are small which will help you build valuable relationships with your professor. In my sister’s experience with Biochemistry, the department is a close knit circle and you will also learn to develop connections and network. 

Location:

The institute is located in Norman, Oklahoma which is a free-thinking town with affordable housing and you will have a large campus to explore. It is littered with gyms, libraries and fine arts spaces with really good architecture. The college also has an active football scene and in my opinion, you will definitely end up at a game or two.

Classes:

Depending on the course you choose, your course classes may have 500+ students to small classes with just 30 students in a class. The faculty is also quite approachable and genuinely cares for students and their academics.

Placements:

On an average, their graduates make about USD 70,929 per year so you can expect to make an amount closer to this. OhioHealth and JP Morgan and Chase are some of the popular companies that hire students. 

You can expect to have a good career after graduating from the program and have a great college life as well. Just research a little about the program you want to go to and give it a shot!

Which is better, Ambedkar University Delhi or Delhi University?

RS
Reena Singh Posted On : January 24th, 2023
B.A(Hons) in Bachelor of Arts in English Literature with Honors, University of Delhi (Graduated 2015)

Here is a fair comparison between Delhi University and Ambedkar University Delhi:

DU

  • Depending on the college you will be attending, North-South and far-flung universities have their own aura, so geographical location is very important. 
  • Considering the location, DU students are mobile. They are familiar with the best spots for exploring, shopping, traveling, drama, sports, DUSU election participation, and many other activities that take place separately in different colleges.
  • Free trips paid for by political parties are offered during elections as incentives to win over the support of young people. Celebrity visits from well-known singers and actors also help to make college days memorable.
  • To choose your college representatives and presence, you will have your own group of friends.
  • Department and course matters are important, and they are somewhat tolerant of absences.
  • Every semester, there is an exam once every six months.

AUD:

  • Kashmiri gate metro station is located in a geographically isolated area near old Delhi. Even in the neighborhood, this place is small.
  • Exams are given based on and decided by the teachers through presentations, term papers, written exams, open-book tests, and an assessment procedure that allows for creativity.
  • The courses are very engaging and require your full attention. You start learning here; understanding will take time.
  • Library, canteen, and computer lab are all available.
  • Professors expect you to attend college because they believe in you.
  • An annual function is held in a small town, and a dancing competition is combined with gazals or Sufi night.
  • Eminent personalities will enlighten you, not actors but professors and writers from various fields.
