What are the attendance criteria for a B.Tech in AKTU?

AG
Aranya Ghosedas Posted On : October 28th, 2021
B.Tech from Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University

I have a few friends who graduated from AKTU. According to them, the official attendance criteria are 75%. However, it is not strictly followed in every college. The attendance criteria vary depending on the college as well as your department. Some departments are more flexible regarding the attendance criteria while the others are strict. 

I even know people who were allowed to give examinations even with 25% attendance, so it entirely depends on college and departments. However, to be safe try to maintain at least 60% attendance.

NP
Neha Patel, Posted On : November 9th, 2021
B.S. Engineering Science from Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, Bhopal (2023)

The department of Economic Sciences at IISER Bhopal is one of the few departments in the country to offer a 4-year BS program. It is very new, thus the curriculum, placements, etc. need some time to get sorted. However, it will eventually become better.

The program integrates classroom learning with research. There are 5 professors from different fields of Economic Sciences including microeconomics, game theory, trade theory, industrial organization, public economics, social choice theory, corporate finance, option pricing, behavioral economics, agriculture economics, and environmental economics. 

There is also an option to pursue BS-MS (Dual Degree) in Economic Sciences by spending an additional year. You can also earn a minor degree in other disciplines. You just have to get a minimum of 30 credits in that particular discipline.

Is the 85% attendance rule of IIT (BHU), Varanasi justified?

RS
Rohit Saha Posted On : June 15th, 2023
IIT BHU (2019)

No, the 85% attendance rule or in fact any fixed attendance criteria of IIT BHU is not justified. The primary purpose of these rules is to restrict the students from exploring anything and keep them inside the classrooms. 

The main purpose should have been to conduct lively classroom sessions such that students themselves are motivated to attend them rather than forcing it on students. In India, attendance is still considered the major parameter to judge the students' interest in studies and academic growth. This mindset is orthodox and needs to be changed for the better.

As a result of these illogical rules, students are forced to attend classes even if they aren’t interested resulting in a lack of actual passion for education. Students are left with no other choice but to attend the classes against their will and trust me anything that is forced loses its value. 

Foreign universities conduct very dynamic classroom discussions and students are attracted to these classes automatically. India still needs to go a long way and implement better techniques to attract students to classes than forcing it upon them.

Is it tough to secure 8.5 GPA in NIT Trichy?

KS
Kalyani Shrivastava Posted On : July 26th, 2023
NIT Trichy

Getting an 8.5 GPA at NIT Trichy depends on certain factors. Below I have talked about each one separately-

  • If you get CSE/EEE/ECE/Mech branch in which the class strength is greater than 100, you will face slightly more difficulty (in comparison to other branches) in scoring an 8.5 GPA.
  • If you get Meta/Chem in NIT Trichy, where the class strength is less than 100 students, you will face comparatively less competition.

There is a system of Relative Grading(RG), so your GPA also depends on your classmates’ performance. 

If you regularly attend classes (maintaining at least 75% attendance), keep yourself updated on all that is being taught in the class, and study well before your CTs/unit tests, and end sem, you will easily score 8.5 or above in NIT Trichy. 

On the other hand, if you are a lazy person who sleeps for 12-14 hours a day,  will bunk your classes regularly, and play PUBG all day, you won’t score well.

Attend your classes regularly and try to study for 2-3 hours a day. Maintain at least 75% attendance. Try to score well in your CTs and Unit Tests, then you will be less worried during your end sem.

You can not control the performance of your entire class, but if you follow a disciplined and balanced routine, you will make sure from your end that you score well as a student of NIT Trichy.

Is Thadomal Shahani Engineering college(TSEC) well known in India? Does it have a good reputation?

KS
Khushi Sharma Posted On : May 26th, 2021
studied Computer Engineering at Thadomal Shahani Engineering College (2019)

My brother is a third-year Computer Engineering student at TSEC. So I might be able to help you with the question.

  • You will fall in love with this college because of its environment. 
  • There will be an “Industrial Visit,” which is essentially a tour of North India (Shimla, Manali, Amritsar, etc.). 
  • You can volunteer for organizing festivals by MS, CSI, IETE, Council. This will help you in expanding your network. 
  • Academically, the syllabus provided by the university is really not good. 
  • The faculty is not good. 
  • Students can improve their grades by practicing previous year’s question papers.

Categories

TSEC

Course Fee

6.56-7.4 lakh

Placement Percentage

75-80%

Highest CTC

15-19.63 LPA

Average CTC

7.68 LPA

Recruiting Companies

Deutsche Bank, JP Morgan, Deloitte, SAP, etc.

For the second term, it will entirely depend on whether you join a committee or not, as most people do. By the end of the year, you will be a completely different person.

In the third year, You will be looking into your options for MS and placements. You'll realize how important your subjects are in terms of placements. And how unorganized your university is, in terms of teaching, resources, guidance, education, and curriculum. However, when it comes to placements, TSEC is good.
