What is the scope of BA LLB through Lucknow university?

AD
Arnav Dasgupta Posted On : October 4th, 2021
Studied at National PG College,Lucknow (2018)

BA LLB is the study of law with few subjects of arts related to legal study. If you want to become a renowned lawyer then you have to implement your knowledge in practical situations.

  • The faculty at Lucknow University is good but it’s best if you make a habit of learning things on your own. It’s better not to expect much from the professors. 
  • The campus and library is huge. You can certainly use that to your advantage. 
  • If you want good career opoortunities, start acquiring practical experience. It’s best if you can intern for a lawyear. Learn to draft, work on your English, Hindi and communication skills. If you don’t understand few things here and there you can rely on technology. 

Lucknow University is a good institute for a BA LLB, but you will have to make the most of your time there.

Should I join Manipal Institute of Technology or IIITD?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : September 8th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

My brother was in a similar dilemma when he got CS in Manipal as well as IIIT Delhi. After consulting a few friends at Manipal, he decided to go for IIIT Delhi. He stated the following reasons for choosing IIIT Delhi over MIT Manipal.

  1. Selection Criteria : Manipal selection criteria a relatively easier selection criteria than the JEE Main + CBSE criteria IIITD uses. There isn't any kind of negative marking and focus is given to the English language. Thus, the crowd may not be as talented and intellectual as IIIT Delhi.
  2. CSE : I wouldn't be exaggerating if I said IIIT Delhis CSE program is at par with the IITs. The faculty is highly qualified and the curriculum is very dynamic. The first year is branch-specific and does not have common subjects.
  3. Higher Studies : IIIT Delhi students are exposed to some of the best research and projects. The faculty's Letter of recommendation can help shape your career for the better.
  4. Placements : IIIT Delhi does not have mass recruiters and very limited non-tech companies. The overall placement stats are excellent.

If you want laid-back academics with a vibrant campus life, your choice should be Manipal whereas if you want a rigorous curriculum, then go for IIIT Delhi. It’s just a question of what your priorities are.

Which should I go for: IIIT Hyderabad or IIT Ropar?

AS
Aishwarya Shastri Posted On : August 3rd, 2023
Lives in Hyderabad

I visited IIT Ropar in the past. Its campus is in a pretty good condition. The seniors over there had good reviews about their institution. The campus is around 50 kms away from Chandigarh.

I am a student at IIIT Hyderabad and know my institution quite well. Here are some highlights about it-

  1. IIIT Hyderabad offers one of the best CSE programs in India.
  2. Strong focus is laid on academics, and great opportunities are provided to students for extracurriculars. You will get to build cool stuff for the IIITH fest.
  3. Students of IIIT Hyderabad perform really well in ACM ICPC, GSoC, OPW, etc. and during internships. This proves the high quality of the academic environment at IIIT H.
  4. The course curriculum is rich and you will remain occupied with coursework and assignments.
  5. The faculty is very helpful and there are regular tutorials by seniors for first year students. 
  6. The professors strongly promote academics and research.You can take up the honors program to understand the research environment better.
  7. The IIIT Hyderabad campus is big, clean, well connected and close to the city. There are just a few restrictions and a lot of personal freedom is given to the students. However, there is a strict attendance criteria.
  8. The hostels are great and the mess food is average. There are many restaurants nearby so you can also order from outside.
  9. The interaction between different branches is great due to the smaller number of students and limited branches. The senior-junior interaction is also great.
  10. The placements are pretty impressive.

According to me, especially for the CSE branch, IIIT Hyderabad is the right choice due to its great coding culture and strong curriculum. However, your choice can differ according to your situation. Do consult the alumni of both these institutions before arriving at a particular decision.

How is IIT Dhanbad as compared to other IITs?

AS
Akrit Shaha Posted On : October 12th, 2023
Lives in Dhanbad

ISM Dhanbad got the IIT tag a few years back. 

It offers pretty good placements and research facilities. The campus is well-maintained and of decent size. It is being further improved and even has its own mall now. Other than that, the college has a fully centralized air-conditioned technical library- the largest in Asia.

IIT Dhanbad is at par with the old IITs. It is the best college in India for Earth Science branches (Mining, Mining Machinery, Applied Geology, Mineral, etc). Other branches have also developed in recent years, especially since ISM has received the IIT tag.

This institute has one of the largest alumni networks in the public sector. It has an MHRD-funded faculty development centre, which is one of its kind in the entire country. It is constructing a Central Research facility within its campus, in collaboration with Australian universities, as a result of an MoU signed by PM Modi during his visit to Australia a few years back. Many centrally funded projects are also taking place within the campus.

So IIT Dhanbad is far ahead of new IITs and at par with the old ones.

How is Fergusson College Pune for BSc in physics?

RS
Riya Sodhi Posted On : September 28th, 2021
Studied at Fergusson College,Pune (2018)

If physics is your passion, and you genuinely want to learn, this is not the place for you. One of my friends studied here and these are some things he mentioned.

  • The faculty is good but they have limited course material. You would not feel like you have learned much. 
  • Most students take up physics in their final years because they know they can easily memorize the course material and pass. This is just so that they can improve their grades. 
  • Mugging up theories is definitely not how someone can learn science. 
  • They don’t have a real interest in the subject anyway and they would be your peers.
  • The system at Fergusson is not great and you wouldn’t want to attend classes as it would not matter and you will pass your exams regardless.

If you are only looking for a college life minus the studies and want to have some fun with fests and events, by all means, join Fergusson because marks and knowledge are secondary here.
