How is the USMLE environment in AIIMS Bhopal?
Despite being a new AIIMS, Bhopal has witnessed s steady growth in the USMLE environment with several students clearing MLE every year and bagging residency spots.
Roughly, 5-15% of the AIIMS Bhopal batch prepares for USMLE and the ratio is similar to other top colleges. However, the past few years have witnessed a decline in the number of students preparing for USMLE due to other popular exams like PLAB, AMC, and Germany as well.
So it can be said that AIIMS Bhopal has an environment that directly helps you prepare for these exams and the seniors are encouraging enough. It’s highly advisable to get your clinical electives sorted out in your MBBS years only because as an intern you will not get any leave for this.
How is the Aerospace Engineering department at IIT Kanpur and what is the scope of the field in India?
Honestly, the infrastructure of the department does not do justice to the reality of the department. The faculty, peer group quality, and education offered are all top-notch. The students are keen to understand the concepts and make the most out of the program.
Pros
- The NWTF-National Wind Tunnel facility
- An airstrip with a hanger
- The student-faculty ratio is perfect owing to the small batch size enabling students to approach the professors easily for clearing their doubts.
- The professors are highly learned, one of them having received the Shanti Swarup award.
Cons
- The core companies give more preference to master/Ph.D. students over BTech students. This specialization requires experience and skills which is possible in the case of MTech students.
- Moreover, this field is still not developed in India and has less scope. It will take time for this field to grow fully and provide enough job opportunities.
Overall, this department has little scope in India, yet IIT Kanpur is one of the best institutes for those interested in this branch.
What makes IIM Raipur special?
When it comes to evaluating the uniqueness of IIM Raipur, it's important to consider that the institute is relatively young, having been established around 22 years ago. You have the opportunity to witness the growth and development of the institute from its early stages. While IIM Raipur may not yet be considered a peerless institution, it has still managed to create a niche for itself among the IIMs.
One of the strengths of the institute is its per-capita spending on study materials, which is not limited, unlike older IIMs. Additionally, IIM Raipur is open to experimentation, which is a result of it being a startup compared to other, more established institutions.
Another aspect that works in favor of IIM Raipur is the student community. Despite past and ongoing constraints, the students have been continuously working to improve the institute and increase its visibility. This is evident in the outreach to aspirants during the post-CAT admission process, and the establishment of niche clubs like HRidhaan, OPEP, and CEC. Furthermore, the events organized by the institute such as HR Summit, GSMC, ICHL, and Leadership Summit, are of high visibility and good quality.
In conclusion, while IIM Raipur may not yet be considered a special institute, it is different in a positive sense and has the potential to become special in the near future.
What are the top consults that visit IIM Lucknow? What are the numbers of hires per top consulting firm at IIM Lucknow?
Instead of going with the conventional approach, let us approach this question differently. This will still be accurate and provide the correct assumptions and statistics as the question demands.
There are 20 IIMs in total and even if all of these institutions have been selecting students for their upcoming batch, the status quo is not more than one-third of the students of a batch of any IIM including IIM Ahmedabad and IIM Bangalore. This is because of factors such as a student’s attitude, previous work experience, and not because of any supply-demand constraints. It is also to be noted that none of the IIMs selects a candidate below 96%ile in CAT.
Out of the total students in a batch at IIM Lucknow, around 150 are fit for consulting roles. Similarly, 100 may be perfect for sales roles and not marketing or any finance roles. Now as we know that 150 students are available for consulting companies, all of these 150 students are made offers by consulting companies visiting the campus and none of the offers gets rejected.
If the richer Investment Banking companies visit the campus, the students will get divided by their preferences as to where to go. But, it was only in the 1990s when Nomura visited the campus of IIM Lucknow making an offer for its global business.
The list of consulting companies visiting IIM Lucknow is as follows: Bain, ATK, BCG, Accenture, McKinsey, Cognizant, HCL, KPMG, E&Y, etc.

Is doing engineering from SGSITS Indore with BM, IP, or ET from IET-DAVV better than taking CSE from Acropolis?
It depends on what you expect as the final outcome from your degree. If you are looking for just a degree, SGSITS is a good choice. But doing engineering just for the sake of it does not make sense. You should figure out what branch you want to study in before making any decisions.
BM and IP:
These two will not fetch you that much capital since the placement options are limited. Your chances will only increase if you are from an IIT.
CS:
Computer Science Engineering is the most reputed among students. It will fetch quite a decent package but you will have to work for it on your own, irrespective of which institute you choose.
ET:
ET is a branch that can prove to be quite fruitful for you. Placements are really good to a certain level and you are bound to cop some of the top ones if you study seriously.
Choosing a branch is the most crucial step and you should decide that, on your own.
