How can I get into XLRI with 8.0 GPA in 10th and 76% in 12th (MPC) and 6.5 in engineering? Will these marks affect my admission into XLRI or IIM even if I score well in XAT and CAT?
This depends on the score in XAT and CAT. If you are aiming for IIM Ahmedabad or IIM Bangalore or IIM Calcutta, then a CAT score of close to or more than 99.8 percentile is needed for a general category student.
You may get a call from other new IIMs such as IIM Kozhikode, IIM Indore, IIM Lucknow, and IIM Shillong. As far as 2nd and 3rd generation IIMs are concerned, then a score of more than 96 percentile is enough to secure the interview call.
For XLRI Jamshedpur a XAT score of more than 98 percentile is enough to get a call for the interview process. The institute gives somewhere in the range of 10% - 15% weightage to 10th, 12th, and graduation marks.
Next is your performance in the WAT and PI which will determine your eventual admission.
Which is better: chemical engineering at NIT Trichy or computer science at NIT Durgapur?
It's difficult to determine which is better chemical engineering at NIT Trichy or computer science at NIT Durgapur. In fact, it's illogical to compare two diverse fields and choose one between them. Both are completely different in the knowledge, scope, and job opportunities they offer. Clarity of goals is very important for the right choice. It’s better to analyze your inclinations first and put the choice of the institute at the back. Imagine your life after 10 years and picture what you would like yourself to be doing
In general, NIT Trichy is the best NIT. So if you have an interest in chemical engineering, and want to pursue a PG or research, then choose NIT Trichy. However, bear in mind that the placements of this branch aren’t very promising so it won’t be a very good choice if you are planning to work right after graduation. If you want a stable job with a corporate lifestyle, then choose NIT Durgapur CSE. You can also pursue an MS or MBA post-graduation.
Ultimately the choice depends on your career prospects!
Which one is better, TAPMI or Fore in Delhi?
It depends entirely on which specialization you want to choose. I know a few people from both TAPMI and FORE. So, I think I can give you some information about these two institutes which may be helpful for choosing which is best for you.
For Marketing:
If you want a career in marketing, go for FORE.
- FORE has better faculty for Marketing specialization.
- The internship offers they offer are majorly from Sales, Business Development, and Market Research.
- For placements, many major FMCG companies visit the campus. Profiles mostly offered in placements are Area Sales Manager.
- The highest salary received here is 30 LPA while the average salary is 10.6 LPA.
- FORE also has the added advantage of being located near the Commercial hub of Gurgaon, Delhi.
For Finance:
- TAPMI is very good if you want to pursue your career in finance. It has a very good faculty and all the top sector companies visit the campus for placements.
- The highest package observed here is 25 LPA while the average salary is 11 LPA.
The placement statistics for both these two institutes are authentic and not inflated. Both the colleges are good and have their own advantages.

IIIT Bangalore and IIIT Hyderabad are top institutions.
IIIT Hyderabad competes with the top IITs. The coding culture over there is top notch and the competitive spirit among peers makes you work very hard.

Through the campus drives for placement, many of my friends got into a rather famous telecom giant in the country, where they worked with top executives of the region, before quitting and starting their own business. I don’t know about other entrepreneurs, but I do know that other institutes wouldn’t really spend that much focus to move students into realizing their true place.
Which is better for M.S. in Quantitative Economics; ISI Kolkata or ISI Delhi?
Both ISI Kolkata and ISI Delhi are excellent institutes offering the MS in Quantitative Economics program. It’s difficult to compare the two as they have similar admission criteria, placement, and even scholarship opportunities.
However, if I had been in your place, I would have chosen ISI Kolkata as it has more courses, professors, and students. The students get to interact with students in non-MSQE courses.
How is the Information Management Course at SPJIMR?
If you're interested in the IM specialization at SPJIMR, you'll learn that it's a unique blend of IT and traditional business. This intersection is the foundation of most of the course content, which will equip you with the skills necessary to succeed in this field.
The companies that hire graduates from this specialization are diverse, ranging from technology giants like Microsoft and e-commerce companies to traditional businesses that are integrating IT systems and consulting firms.
While work experience is not a strict requirement for admission into the program, it's important to note that your chances of landing a job in this field without any work experience are limited. To increase your chances, it's recommended that you have between 1.5 to 3 years of work experience in a related field. This will help you stand out during the recruitment process and make you a more desirable candidate for potential employers.
