Why does Kalasalingam University have a good NIRF ranking but bad student reviews?

VK
Vishnu Kumar Posted On : January 14th, 2022
B.Tech from Kalasalingam University (2015)

The reviews of the students are not usually bad. But when you compare Kalasalingam University to other more established universities, it lags a bit behind in the college rankings. But the college rankings are not given by students, so their views vary.

This college really has good facilities, a huge library, green campus, etc. They also have a well experienced and highly cooperative faculty.  The college might have some faults which is why the NIRF ranking is not good. But other than that it is quite a good college with sufficient amenities.

Sikkim Manipal University Distance Education What are some less known facts about SMU DE online exams?

RG
Rekha Gupta Posted On : October 6th, 2021
Studied at Sikkim Manipal University

Sikkim Manipal University Distance Education usually conducts 4 examinations for odd and even semesters. These exams are held in January-February, April-May, July-August, and October-November. 

  • You are allowed to take up the exams at any of the affiliated or identified test centers. 
  • To be eligible for these exams, you also need to submit internal assessment (IA) on a regular basis and meet the given deadlines. 
  • Your IA marks and the assignment marks are collectively calculated. This helps in brushing your knowledge every day rather than encumbering you with the same facts at the end of the semesters.
  • There should be no plagiarism in any of the assignments. If any content is found to be plagiarized, your work would get rejected.
  • A score of a minimum of 40% is expected in your IAs and semester examinations. 
  • On successful fulfillment of these exams, you will receive the marks card as well as your degree within the period of 3 months. 

It is easier to score in their exams as 80% of the paper consists of Multiple-Choice Questions (MCQs). As much as minimal effort to go through the study material would help you in acing these exams.

SS
Shyam Singh Posted On : October 25th, 2021
studied B.Sc. Computer Science, Ashoka University (2023)

Ashoka University is established in a better manner with its campus, facilities, and members of faculty. Here are some of the facts about both Ashoka and Krea.

  • The hostel, library, students, and, most importantly, the great instructors comprise Ashoka. 
  • Particularly the history and literary departments of the University have many great facilities to offer to the students. However, Krea follows a similar pattern for the departments of liberal arts. 
  • The current hostels and classrooms of the university are excellent. 
  • Some of my friends were in the first batch of the university and their experience was pretty good. 
  • The members of the faculty and administrators hired thus far are good. 

I would suggest that you should take into account the location of both these universities before making your decision.
