GV
Gopali Verma Posted On : August 20th, 2021
Studied at Vasavi College of Engineering

There are some ground rules in Vasavi College of Engineering, which are as follows –

  • College ID Card: No matter who you are if you don’t have a college ID you are not allowed to enter into college. In case If you lose/ forget it, you have to write a letter.
  • Attendance: You have to maintain a minimum of 75% attendance. If you fail to do so you have to submit a medical certificate even if it is 1% less but if the attendance is below 65% it will be denied. There will be proctors who monitor your attendance once every few months and if It's not your day, then your parent/ guardian might receive a call.
  • Punctuality: If you are late to college by 15 minutes, your ID card will be swiped which implies you will not be given first-hour attendance even if someone gives a proxy.
  • No open gate system: You cannot come and go as you wish. Once you enter the college, you are not allowed to leave the college without permission during working hours. Nevertheless, you are allowed to go out during lunch hour from 2nd year.

If you find these rules to be strict, then you have to struggle initially to get accustomed. Once you get used to these, you will have a different perception from what you had initially.

Which is better for CSE, IIT Gandhinagar or IIT Ropar?

YA
Yash Arora Posted On : March 12th, 2021
IIM Bangalore | IIT Gandhinagar

When it comes to IITs it’s not really easy to compare them especially when these both are of the same generation.

However, if you still need to compare it is important for you to understand that an undergraduate degree is more of an exploration to discover your passion and interest. This hypothesis has been vetted by a large number of IIT graduates, IIM graduates, and many professors and IIT alums.

Let’s take a few examples for a case in point.

  • Dr. Raghuram Rajan, a top IIT alum studied electrical at IIT, followed up with an MBA at IIM and then a Ph.D. from MIT to become an economist.
  • Also, the TVF guy (Jeetu bhaiya from the Kota Factory) did undergrad from IIT Kharagpur only to become a comedian and actor later. Interesting isn’t it?

Flexibility:

So now that you understand the importance of flexibility and passion, IIT Gandhinagar stands out here undoubtedly. The curriculum at IIT Gandhinagar is very flexible and it allows you to study anything under the sun. This flexibility is the reason behind the success of Many IIT Gandhinagar graduates.

Apart from that, IIT Gandhinagar has the most funds among the second generation IITs. It offers around 30–40% of the batch with options to pursue foreign internships and great research opportunities.

Location:

If you compare IIT Ropar with IIT Gandhinagar, the latter takes the trophy again because it is situated in Gandhinagar which is the capital of Gujarat. The campus sits in the vicinity of CM residence, Vidhan Sabha, ambitious GIFT City project, prominent institutes such as DAIICT, NIFT, and many others.

Placement:

Placements at IIT Gandhinagar is excellent. The first CSE batch graduated in 2020. Without CSE only, firms such as Nutanix, Goldman Sachs, ITC, Barclays, etc. have been recruiting at the campus. 

Alumni:

IIT Gandhinagar has to date graduated about 600+ students from BTech and at least 80–90% of them are quite successful. You can see alums are working in firms such as Mckinsey, Microsoft in the US, Amazon, Apple, BCG, ATK, Google, Facebook, Goldman Sachs, ITC, PnG, to name a few. You can also visit the alumni portal to get an idea about it or just visit LinkedIn.

For these factors, CSE at IIT Gandhinagar is a better alternative.

What is the minimum cutoff for admission in Delhi University?

SK
Sonia Kashyap Posted On : October 26th, 2021
studied M.A in English from Hindu College, University of Delhi (2021)

The cut-off depends on your choice of course and college. It varies every year and it can be as high as 99% and as low as 40%.

To give you a rough idea of DU Cut off, you require at least 94% marks for admission to science subjects. For commerce stream courses like B.Com, you must have scored 94% in the top 4 subjects including a language.

On the other hand, the cut-off for Humanities subjects must be between 90-92%. If you are interested in doing Hindi (Hons) or Sanskrit (Hons), the cut-off is very low for these programs. You can easily get a seat at St.Stephens with 66% marks in Sanskrit (Hons).

For South Campus, you can reduce 2-3% from the ones mentioned above. Take a look at the previous year’s DU cut-off for better understanding.
