Is it worth joining IIM Indore's EPGP programme keeping in mind the placements?
The EPGP Programme was established in the year 2002 at IIM Indore and has produced a great number of alumni since then. The graduated alumni have been performing remarkably well in their fields. The track record set by them is exceptional.
The EPGP course content at IIM Indore is compressed, precise and the learning process is highly based on real-life developments and circumstances. It is one of the most effective ways of learning.
If you have a non-IT background experience of 5-7 years, then you are highly likely to land a good placement. A salary package ranges up to 25 LPA.
Even a candidate with 7 years and above experience would gain no instant financial advancement except some knowledge and academic qualification. You should not hope to acquire the benefits of this degree steadily. The IIM tag is kind of a long-term investment and would help you in getting through the corporate sectors with its name itself.

How difficult is it to score a CGPA of 9+ at NIT Rourkela in computer science?
My brother scored a 9+ CGPA in most of his semesters during his B.Tech CSE at NIT Rourkela. He even ended up with a 9+ CGPA as his final B.Tech grade. Here are a few tips to help you achieve this high in your exams-
- Work hard throughout the semesters. It is very rare that someone gets a 9+ CGPA at NIT Rourkela by studying the night before an exam.
- Be attentive in the class and take your assignments seriously.
- Even if you copy your assignments sometimes, make sure to understand those answers afterwards.
- Writing things down is the best way to remember them.
- The TA that you get for 20 marks actually decides your grades. Performing well in that TA will allow you to score a 9+ CGPA in your semesters.
- Keep a track of your midterm marks. Calculate the worst case estimate of your semester grades beforehand.
- Remember to polish your strengths before working on your weaknesses.
- Persistence and dedication is the key.
Every stream is equally difficult.If you work hard and follow these tips, you will surely get a 9+ CGPA in your B.Tech CSE from NIT Rourkela.
Which is better, Great Lakes Chennai or Gurgaon for PGDM?
I once visited the campus of Great Lakes Chennai and I knew right then that it was going to be my dream college. I also looked up at the Gurgaon campus and it was clearly visible how the infrastructure of the Chennai campus was way superior to that of the Gurgaon campus.
The Chennai campus is located away from the hustle and bustle of the city in a serene location around 60km from Chennai. This beautiful campus spreads across 27 acres and the tranquility can be felt by all nature lovers. I am attaching some pictures that will do justice to the beauty of this campus

The pictures alone cannot testify to the campus's beauty so it's recommended you visit it once.
Ultimately, both campuses offer equal opportunities and education the only difference lies in the infrastructure and quality of campus life.
How many students are there in AIIMS Delhi who have dropped more than 2 or 3 years and are doing great at studies in AIIMS?
I cannot comment on how the students who dropped a few years are doing currently but yes I can tell you that there certainly are students who managed to make it into AIIMS even after taking drop years. This requires a lot of determination.
Firstly, there is no certainty that taking a drop year will assure a seat the next year. In fact, going to the same syllabus once again is going to be tough and will take a toll on you. It is a courageous decision. Moreover, when you will look at your friends who have started their M.B.B.S. the sense of failure might take over you. For some, this might be a sense of motivation though. So it’s best to analyze if you are ready for the drop and the consequences.
Coming to real-life examples, I have some friends who have taken 3-4 years drop and made it into top medical colleges but not AIIMS. It was their hard work and dedication that made them stronger and not give up.
I suggest you not be adamant about AIIMS and keep all options open. That will not limit your opportunities and you will make it through somehow.
