Do you recommend AIIMS Nagpur over Osmania Medical College?
Osmania Medical College is a very old medical institute established in the mid-1800s and has a deteriorating infrastructure now. AIIMS Nagpur on the other hand has been established in 2012 with all modern architecture and facilities. Both the institutes have unique pros and cons and choosing one over the other means which institutes weaknesses you are choosing to overlook.
Osmania Medical College*
Pros
- Enjoys a good reputation because of its early establishment.
- You get help from many seniors in MBBS, MD, and MS, etc
- Being such an old college, it has an elaborate alumni network with many experienced doctors working in India and abroad.
- The institute holds the OSMECON, an undergraduate medical conference
- The institute has 10 attached hospitals, for different specialties. The clinical exposure offered is excellent here.
Cons
- The infrastructure of Osmania Medical College is horrible and the buildings are falling apart as they are old
- No emphasis on extracurricular activities
- Poor hostel facilities with no accommodation for students from Hyderabad. The food served in the mess and living rooms are in horrible condition.
- Whereas in AIIMS Nagpur every student gets a single room from the beginning, very clean and brand new. Nothing to complain about there.
- The institute lacks funding from the central government
- No research culture here so it’s difficult for students. Planning to go to the US for residency
- Only 15% of seats are filled through All India Quota and thus there is no diversity in the student body it attracts
AIIMS Nagpur
- AIIMS Nagpur actively promotes research work and those interested can approach a professor. Most professors have published research publications, journals, and books and will guide you excellently.
- A very diverse student body as it has only AIQ. The cutoff is very high so you will be surrounded by the geniuses of the country.
- AIIMS Nagpur infrastructure is incomparable to OMC as it has been newly established and thus is equipped with modern technology.
- AIIMS Nagpur has excellent hostel facilities with single rooms for every student, great mess food and other hostel facilities.

AIIMS Nagpur

There is no right answer and only to find the right college for you after weighing the pros and cons.
How is metallurgy at iit roorkee?
Here are a few aspects through which the credibility of the Metallurgy branch at IIT Roorkee can be discussed
Institute: You will find a diverse peer group of geniuses that will add to your learning experience. Additionally, the campus is located in a beautiful area, and there are many resources available to help students adjust to college life. It’s the best option after IIT B, D, K or Kgp and of course, IISc.
Curriculum: The curriculum of Metallurgy is poor with no diverse approach. The topics covered are taught and studied through rote memorization and no practical application is done. Very few material courses are taught. The fact that only one core job offer was made recently that too by a small steel industry, is enough to determine its credibility. The majority of the batch ends up in IT or Analytics. If you are serious about Material, I suggest going for a Master, that too outside India.
People in the department: Everyone including the staff, professors, and students is very laid back and least interested in anything in general. The staff and professors pay no heed to the complaints lodged by students and the students especially seniors are equally dumb and lack even basic knowledge.
Job prospects: The only way to get a job for students of this department is to learn to code, or else you will remain unplaced. You can also go for GATE, CAT, MS, or Ph.D. Some students even start preparing for Government exams like UPSC, SSC, etc.
My advice to you would be to go for Metallurgy only if you are genuinely interested and want to get MS. A decent CGPA might help you fetch a few company tests and interviews but no jobs. Irrespective of it all, IIT Roorkee does offer an excellent college life experience and if you have no better choice, then go for Metallurgy and prepare yourself well for the consequences.
How is IIT Delhi for M.tech in Civil Engineering from placement point of view?
Most Government, as well as Private companies, prefer BTech graduates to MTech or MS graduates. One needs an MTech degree only if one wants to enter academia or research. The reason they prefer a fresher is that they consider them flexible and thus sponsor them for higher study in their field of requirement.
M.Tech degree is not required to secure a good job and I will recommend you start preparing for GATE instead and target a PSU job. The written tests and interviews during the process of GATE Preparation will increase your chances of selection in the future.
My idea has been selected for Mentoring and then incubation at IIM Bangalore. How should I go about presenting it to them so that they agree for incubating it?
One of my friends' startups was incubated by NSRCEL, IIM Bangalore. She narrated her struggles in achieving this after 3 attempts. I won’t go through the details of how you can get your idea incubated as your idea has already been. Instead, I will tell you what comes after.
Once your idea has been incubated, you will be enrolled in a 3-month LaunchPad program. During this program you will have to work from the IIM Bangalore campus itself. The team of NSRCEL will
- Conduct workshops to familiarize you with startups and how they function.
- The NSRCEL team will set attainable targets and help you achieve them.
- You will be allowed interactions with experienced mentors who will offer suggestions and opinions regarding your idea. Use this opportunity to learn and upgrade the idea and not as criticism.
- The team will also provide you with some time and money-saving business tools like AWS credits, Access to CRM, and accounting software.
My friend said she regretted not paying during this program because she was not well prepared for what came after. You will have to present your idea in front of a panel of 8 judges. They will analyze if your idea is worth investing in and your goals. They will inquire a lot and pose difficult questions, the answers to which can be known only if you really paid attention to the program.
The 3 possible outcomes of this procedure are
- Your idea gets incubated
- You are granted an extension of 2-3 months to work on your idea a bit more
- You are asked to re-apply for the Launchpad program as you need to understand your business better.
Irrespective of the outcome don’t get demotivated. Because the largest of empires have been built after countless failures.

Guru Nanak is the best choice for a college with excellent faculty, infrastructure, and hostel facilities.

VNR is ideal for colleges with stringent rules and regulations.
It's not about the college when it comes to engineering; it's about how you learn and how much effort you put in. Colleges only teach you 10% of what you need to know; the other 90% must be learned outside of the classroom and through hard work. Any college will suffice if you have a strong interest in your program and are serious about pursuing a career in engineering.

Should I go for NIT Kurukshetra ECE or NIT Silchar CSE?
There are several parameters for drawing a comparison between these two colleges. Some of them are mentioned below-
- Placements- During 2023, B.Tech ECE at NIT Kurukshetra recorded 74.15% placements. The CTC range stood at 6-62.75 (LPA). The average package stood at 17.66 LPA, and the median package stood at 14.83 LPA. Some top recruiters from this college include Bharat Light & Power, Adani Group, Aakash, Accolite, Code Nation, Microsoft, Mahindra, ICICI Lombard, among others. But not all companies recruit ECE students.
During 2022 placements at NIT Silchar, the highest package went to INR 44 LPA and the average package stood at INR 13.58 LPA. The list of top recruiters included Amazon,Microsoft, Adobe, Arcesium and Intuit. For the CSE branch, out of 97 registered students, 82 were placed, and 126 offers were given to this branch in total.

NIT Kurukshetra is spread across 300 acres. You’ll find the campus green and serene. There are no hangout places as such, but at a minimal charge, you can visit Kurukshetra city in just 20 minutes.
- Infrastructure- NIT Kurukshetra has decent infrastructure and facilities. The buildings for computers and electronics departments are new and modern. Their labs are filled with all the equipment. The campus library is top notch. You’ll get a variety of books for reading and issuing purposes. The book bank offers up to 5 books for 6 months at a highly nominal price of Rs. 30 per book.
