Which is better: CSE at BIT Mesra or IT at NIT Allahabad?

AA
Aarti Ahuja Posted On : August 9th, 2023
Lives in Allahabad

It’s highly illogical to compare BIT Mesra with NIT Allahabad. MNNIT Allahabad belongs to a different league and is way better than BIT Mesra. Its CS and IT placements are surprisingly better than the new IITs too.

The best part about MNIT Allahabad is its extensive job opportunities. Companies coming for CS students allow IT and ECE students to sit for placements as well. So all you need to do is become proficient in coding and clear the interview smartly. 

Here is a comparative analysis of the placement statistics of BIT Mesra CS and MNNIT Allahabad IT

In KGMU Lucknow, do the local students of Lucknow get a hostel room?

ST
Shivani Thakur Posted On : September 26th, 2023
Studied at KGMU

From what I heard, everyone who applies early during the admissions process gets a hostel room at KGMU irrespective of the fact if you are a local or not. Sometimes students who aren’t allotted room initially, get one after a month, after the backlog of applications is cleared. So here are a few tips to get a hostel room easily at KGMU Lucknow

  1. Apply early by paying 6000/- as yearly room charges
  2. Make sure to make a good friend in the admission room so you can apply for a room together.
  3. Make sure you are a regular hosteller who follows all the rules at least for the first six months.

Hope this helps you!

Is it better to join NIT Trichy or IIT Bhubaneswar?

KS
Kalyan Sahu Posted On : June 22nd, 2023
Lives in Bhubaneshwar

For a branch like CSE, choosing between IIT Bhubaneswar and NIT Trichy is a bit tricky. Both offer good placements and are equally good colleges. But if you want an IIT tag (which does hold more weight than an NIT tag), you should go for IIT Bhubaneswar.

If you want to pursue your higher studies abroad, go for an IIT tag blindly because the IIT brand is well-recognized abroad. So, consider what you wish to do after your graduation and make your decision accordingly.

But, in general, as NIT Trichy is older than IIT Bhubaneswar, you should choose based on the branch that you get at each. If you get CSE/EE at NIT Trichy and another branch at IIT Bhubaneswar that will not get you as good a package, go for NIT Trichy.

These are the placement figures for IIT Bhubaneswar and NIT Trichy-

Some people do consider NIT Trichy as a superior option because it is older while IIT Bhubaneswar is a newer IIT. IIT Bhubaneswar is at the 47th rank while NIT Trichy is at the 9th rank in the NIRF India Rankings 2023: Engineering.

What should I choose: IIT Roorkee metallurgy or NIT Warangal/Trichy CSE?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : September 6th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

IIT Roorkee, NIT Trichy, and NIT Warangal are well-established institutes in India. The scope of metallurgy is comparatively lower than that of CSE. IIT Roorkee mainly concentrates on textual learning and does not give the students exposure to practical learning. They are using the practice of mugging up the lessons without having a clear understanding of the topic. The placement is very poor here; the students from the metallurgy department usually end up in data analytics and coding.

So CSE at NIT Warangal and Trichy would be a better choice.

Which are the dream companies for an XLRI HRM student?

HR
Hariharan Ragunathan Posted On : May 31st, 2021
Studied at Xavier School of Management (2018)

A dream company depends upon your choice and where your interest lies. Typically, HR Consulting, IR, Manufacturing, or Line HR Roles are more popular.

  • If you are interested in HR Consulting then Hay group, Accenture consulting are considered a dream as both of these companies pay significantly higher than other companies like Mercer or Hewitt. 

  • If your interest lies in IR or Manufacturing then FMCG companies like P&G, Unilever, ITC, Asian Paints, etc should be your dream companies.

  • If you are interested in Line HR or corporate HR only then Novartis, Stan Chat, Microsoft, or other big banks and the Software or product based companies etc. are considered dream companies. Novartis offered their position in Switzerland so it was a dream for many students. 

Despite this, some students may be more interested in joining startups and building systems from scratch than in joining existing companies.

How can I secure a rank under 1000 in UPSEE so that I can get IET Lucknow?

ST
Shashank Trivedi Posted On : August 4th, 2021
Studied at IET Lucknow (2019)

It should be remembered that there is no substitute for hard work. Gaining admission into state engineering colleges through UPSEE entrance exams has its advantages which makes it easier to perform well in them.

  • Most of the questions in the UPSEE entrance exams would be easier to solve for you because they are of the level of classes 11 and 12.
  • They are not tricky and very easy to answer.
  • There is no negative marking. Even if you are not sure if you answered the question correctly, you will not end up losing marks.
  • The question papers may be lengthy, though.
  • You can prepare yourself for the exams by arranging MCQs of the previous years and practicing them within a certain time limit.
  • As far as the admission to IET Lucknow goes, you can get it at a rank of lower than 1000 after the subsequent sessions of counseling.

The UPSEE entrance exams contain 150 questions and there is a time limit of 3 hours. You must be in touch with your calculations and concept implementation and are accurate in both. A score of 440 or more will give you good chance of getting admitted.

What is the top branch in IET Lucknow?

PS
Payal Shirvastav Posted On : August 3rd, 2021
B.Tech at Institute of Engineering and Technology (IET) Lucknow (2020)

The answer for this question depends on what your preferences are and what your goals are for the future.

  • If your goal is to get into PSUs, you will have to work hard in ME and if you want to work in the private sector then it would be a good idea if you prepare for something else.
  • You can also opt for pursuing higher studies after completion of your program with the branch you have chosen for yourself.
  • Computer Science (CS) is the branch that is the most popular among the students.
  • The placements and packages offered to the students of CS are higher than those of the students of the other branches.
  • Sometimes even the people who have graduated in Civil, Mechanical, or Electrical Engineering work hard to get selected in IT companies.
  • For getting recruited by an IT company, you need to have some knowledge about data structures, algorithms, and have a basic understanding of the language of programming.

However, the branches of Civil, Mechanical, and Electrical Engineering can often lead to recruitment in PSUs with packages going up to INR 30-40 LPA.

What should be the order of preference of colleges among VMMC, LHMC, and AIIMS Bhopal/Jodhpur?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : June 10th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

Selecting the right order of preferences is very crucial during counseling, otherwise, you will end up losing an opportunity to study at a good college. I won’t be specifying any order of preference rather will guide you to the same. 

  • Affiliation: VMMC is affiliated with IP, LHMC is affiliated with DU and AIIMS is a central government institute.
  • PG Reservation: VMMC has an internal PG reservation, LHMC has a PG reservation within DU-affiliated medical while AIIMS has no PG reservation at all.
  • Infrastructure: The infrastructure of all the colleges is at the same level except LHMC because of being extremely old.
  • Academics:  Academically, all the aforementioned institutes are similar and there are no major differences. 
  • College life: Located in Delhi, VMMC and LHMC offer slightly better city life than other institutes. No doubt Jodhpur and Bhopal are also big cities but cannot be compared to the urban life of Delhi. Delhi has many places to explore and great eateries also.

Based on the above points, make your own order of preference. Determine your priorities and then rank the colleges as per your needs.
