Which University is better for English Honors at Undergraduate level, Jadavpur or Presidency University, Kolkata, and why?

TB
Tuhin Banerjee Posted On : June 22nd, 2021
B.A History, Jadavpur University

Well, both the colleges hold their own places in English Honors at the Undergraduate level. But, this is the tough one as you won’t really get a definite answer. Jadavpur students will claim their institute is better and so will the Presidency students.

Moreover, both the universities are undoubtedly the best for any stream in Humanities. I know people from both the institutes and based on the interactions I had with them I will suggest you go for JU. It will offer you better exposure, academics, faculty, ambiance. JU’s entrance examination is also more competitive.

Few of my friends appeared for both the exams. And only the best managed to get into JU. While quite a few cracked Presidency University. As Presidency University looks at your current skills, on the other hand, Jadavhpur wants you to not only focus on writers’ current and past but also on different aspects like theatre as well.

How are the placements at Andhra University for B.Tech students?

TG
Tanvi Garg Posted On : October 25th, 2021
studied B.Tech Computer Science, Andhra University College of Engineering

Students often feel that the placements are often exaggerated in AU. If you are from CSE, ECE, or IST, you will have more chances at reputed firms such as Infosys, Wipro, TCS, FTD, IBM, Accenture, etc with packages ranging from INR 3-10 LPA. More than 75% of students get placed in campus hiring at the end of their graduation.

But if you are from any core branch-like chemical, mechanical, marine, etc, then you will be called for interview by some software companies offering packages less than INR 4 LPA. There are only a few chances for core placements and on average, you will be offered placement in between INR 3–6LPA.

The core companies visiting for recruitment from chemical engineering are AUROBINDO, Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories, GVK BIO, Deccan Companies, etc and all together they will recruit less than 20 students.

Which is better, AIIMS Jodhpur or KGMU Lucknow?

SD
Sagar Dikshit Posted On : September 25th, 2023
lives in Lucknow

KGMU has always been a very attractive option for medical aspirants.

It has a good infrastructure and reputation. It is considered as the best medical college in UP. I don’t have much idea about AIIMS Jodhpur, but it is considered the best after Delhi. Personally though, I consider AIIMS Rishikesh a better choice due to its pleasant location.

Recently, the UP government has passed a compulsory bond for UGs and PGs. It is a compulsory 2 years rural posting bond. This is a huge drawback in choosing KGMU Lucknow. The rural posting will be a difficult time, and you won’t learn much from it. There are safety concerns as well. 

For your MBBS, you should choose between the two based on personal preference. But I would recommend you go for AIIMS Jodhpur.

Which college is better, CMC Ludhiana or KMC Manipal?

BG
Bidita Ghose Posted On : September 25th, 2023
Lives in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

Both CMC Ludhiana and KMC Manipal are prestigious institutes well-known for their excellence in the medical field. However, you might want to consider the following points of differences while choosing one of these colleges

  • Academics: CMC Ludhiana fares better in terms of quality of academics as it has a highly dedicated staff and the facilities are also top notch. KMC Manipal too is quite decent academically.
  • Infrastructure: KMC Manipal has better infrastructure than CMC Ludhiana as it has well-maintained buildings and a lush green campus while CMC Ludhiana is situated amidst the hustle and bustle of the city.
  • Location: This is a personal factor especially if you prefer staying close to home or not.
  • Fees: CMC Ludhiana's first-year fees are around INR 6.6 Lakhs while KMC Manipal MBBS Fees for the first year are INR 17.8 Lakhs which is almost double that of CMC Ludhiana.
  • Patient load: CMC has a good patient flow with more indoor and outdoor patients. 

Overall, I feel both the colleges are unique in their own way and you won't regret joining either of these colleges.

Is branch change easy if I want CSE at NIT Rourkela?

DJ
Dinesh Johri Posted On : August 17th, 2023
Studying B.Tech from National Institutes of Technology (2024)

NIT Rourkela started branch change facility from academic year 2017-2018. For a branch change, your first year CGPA and seat availability in the desired course will be considered. However, to answer you precisely, it is not easy to get a branch change, that too into CSE. Top scorers at NIT Rourkela are able to achieve this feat. 

The main obstacle is that students acquire a laid back attitude after getting an admission into an NIT or IIT. Even if you work 1/10th as hard as you did during your JEE preparation, you will get a good CGPA and your chances for a branch change will be high. For this, you will have to work hard instead of blaming the faculty, syllabus or hectic schedule.

It is quite difficult to upgrade to CSE at NIT Rourkela. However, if you work really hard and get lucky enough that the department has vacant seats, you might get into CSE after your first year.

Can I attend classes at IIT Hyderabad as a days scholar, my house is near to the campus and I don't want to stay in hostel?

SA
Shruti Agarwal Posted On : May 9th, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Hyderabad (IITH)
No, according to the rules of IIT Hyderabad, it’s compulsory for a BTech student to stay in hostels as a full-time resident and thus you cannot attend your classes as a day scholar and go back home. You can visit your home daily and there are no restrictions on that. However, irrespective of where you stay, you will have to pay full hostel/mess fees like other students. For complete growth at IIT Hyderabad or any other IIT, students have to stay in a hostel for 4 years. Classroom learning is not enough for their development. The additional club meetings, student activities, events, and sports activities that take place after classes are over help in the holistic development of its students. So, to make the most out of your student life at IIT Hyderabad, it’s best to stay in hostels and enjoy.

I have poor graduation percentage, should I apply for JBIMS?

AM
Aniket Mitra Posted On : February 21st, 2023
Studied Finance at Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies

Graduation scores do carry a weightage during admissions at JBIMS but a very minor one. They are not the main criteria to focus on. CET is the most important factor that needs full attention. The candidate's profile is rated on various parameters.

Parameters 

Weightage

CAT/MH-CET/ CMAT Score

60

PAR (10th, 12th and Bachelor Marks)

15

Extra-curricular/Work Experience

20

Diversity

5

Total

100

The institute also considers past academic records for computation of Application Rating Score(AR). The cutoff for PAR is as follows:

10th: 60% or above

12th: 60% or above

As you can see little or no weightage is given to Graduation scores. So don’t let your low marks dishearten and discourage you. Rather focus on your CAT/CET.
