Is it possible to change branches after the first year at NIT Calicut?
NIT Calicut has some of the most illogical rules regarding branch change, some of these include:
- To be eligible for branch change at NIT Calicut, one needs to score CGPA of 8+
- Only 2 2 people are eligible to transfer to another branch from a specific branch.
- Only two incoming transfers are allowed per branch.
As a result of this ridiculous policy, a more deserving candidate fails to change his branch. For example, someone with CGPA 9 could not change his branch because he was the 3rd topper of his branch while someone with a CGPA 8.8 can change his branch if he is the topper of his branch.
So, branch change at NIT Calicut depends a lot on your CGPA and obviously your luck!
I scored 89% in boards. Can I get BCA at BIT Mesra Off-Campuses?
You will surely get BCA at BIT Mesra (off-campus) with an 89% in boards. However, I would like you to reconsider your choice of pursuing a BCA.
I am an alumnus of BIT Mesra (off-campus) myself. I decided to go for a BCA because I did not want to take a year drop to prepare for JEE, unlike the rest of my classmates. I do not regret my decision, I have a decent job that covers my expenses.
However, I do feel that I am doing the same thing after a six-year BCA with MCA that I could’ve done with a 4-year B.Tech (CS/IT). Also, I might have ended up earning more with an engineering degree. According to me, if you pursue your B.Tech (CS/IT) from a renowned institution like BIT Mesra, it will be more beneficial for your career in Computer Science.
Therefore, if you are from a Science background, I would suggest you to talk to a career counselor and find out if a B.Tech CS/IT will be more beneficial or not.

Which is the best, SJBIT, Global Academy of Technology, or JSSATE?
JSSATE should be most preferred among SJBIT and Global academy of technology not only because of the beautiful campus infrastructure but also better teaching facilities, academics excellence, better campus placement & reasonable fee structure (depending on admission category you choose to get admission).
JSSATE has no dress code, unlike SJBIT. Various scholarships & relaxation can be availed for fee concession.
The table below shows the placement statistics of JSSATE:
|

405 |
JSSATE also provides little relaxation in-class attendance and strictness unlike the rest of the two. Global Academy of technology and SJBIT can burn your pockets if you belong to a middle-class family. So, if you're a self-motivated person and looking for little enjoyment in your graduation then definitely go for JSSATE.
The next best option is SJBIT of having a comparatively better ranking and feasible transportation to reach a college campus. It offers better placement and the facility is also good.
Lastly, it depends on you how you take maximum benefit out of your surroundings. Your success will depend on your hard work, time management, and the opportunities you grabbed.
I am pursuing CA Should I do B.Com P or B.Com H from DU SOL?
You should not seek a B. Com course from DU SOL neither Program nor honors. As a CA candidate, you should get enrolled in a B.com program from IGNOU. In comparison to DU SOL, it will provide you with a higher level of education with good faculty members and facilities for a B.Com program.
The biggest advantage would be that you only have to attempt 4 or 5 tests during the entirety of your course. According to the terms and conditions of the MOU and your CA Results, you will be excused from another subject based on certain conditions. One of my friends graduated from DU SOL with a B.Com degree, which, according to him, adds no value to his profession as a CA aspirant.
Furthermore, if you enroll in DU SOL to pursue a program in B.Com, you will be required to visit examination centers that you have never heard of in the city of Delhi. I insist that you consider ideas and suggestions from CA pursuant who have pursued or are pursuing a B.Com program from DU SOL and are members of the CA Fraternity.
What are the best life lessons that you have learned while living at NIT Warangal?
NIT Warangal will teach you a lot. Here are some lessons that I learned during my B.Tech from NITW-
- Enjoy as much as you want at NIT Warangal but maintain good grades. Maintain at least an 8 CGPA. A 7 CGPA or below won’t leave you with many options, especially with regard to placements.
- It is comforting to be part of a group but don’t limit yourself and talk to other people as well. Doing so will give you a lot of exposure and you will learn networking. Also, the connections one makes at NIT Warangal stay for a lifetime.
- Don’t just study for good grades, study to enhance your knowledge. This is the right time to learn new things.
- Don’t sacrifice your hobbies. Maintain a balance between your studies and your hobbies.
- Don’t fall into peer pressure and accept a job just because it pays well. Get into something that you will actually enjoy doing. Peer pressure during placement season is high. Also, your parents will tell you to “settle down”. But it's important that you choose a career that you can pursue with as much passion and zeal, even after 5-6 years.
- Respect your professors and try to learn from them.
- Just take it easy, everything will fall into place.
These are some important life lessons that I learnt at NIT Warangal. I wanted to share these so that you don’t commit the mistakes that I did.
Which one should I choose between IBS Hyderabad and Welingkar Bangalore Core?
Welingkar Bangalore Core is a good option among the two, many people don’t consider Bangalore a corporate hub, and it is easy for a Bangalore-based college to call for companies and get their students placed.
Also, Welingkar is a well-established institute that started in the year 1977. The median salary for Welingkar is around 11 lac per annum, while for IBS, it is around 7 lac per annum, so the choice is clear in terms of placements. Plus, it is an older institute, so you will get some perks related to that.
