How do I convert a call from tapmi?

RS
Rishabh Sharma Posted On : June 1st, 2021
PGDM from T. A. Pai Management Institute (2018)

To get into TAPMI, clear the GD session, and perform well in PI. Your marks and CAT score should also be good. Last year my brother applied here. Let me share his experience, which might give you a clear idea.

  • GD topics are mainly taken from current affairs. They might also provide debatable topics, to evaluate the discussion. My brother was given the topic “Should Burqas be Banned During Exams?”. Out of 12 people in the group, 4 were selected for the PI round.
  • In PI, various types of questions were asked. This included from - “Describing Yourself” to “Where do you see yourself in 5 years”. Mention your family background briefly, but mostly concentrate on yourself, your accomplishments, your skills, and your strengths. 
  • They also asked about - Why he chose MBA and why in TAPMI. Also why he did not opt for a job but for an MBA. Confidently and answer with honesty, this will definitely create a good impression.
  • After that, you also might be asked about current affairs and your extra-curricular activities. How they benefited you and what role does it play in your career, are some of the things you should be prepared to answer.

Overall, even if you don't have an answer, be confident and speak clearly. If you don't want to bluff your way through an answer, tell them confidently that you don't know.

I am likely to get EI at BITS Hyderabad and CSE in local top EAMCET colleges in Telangana. Which one should I prefer, or shall I drop this year?

AS
Aishwarya Shastri Posted On : December 22nd, 2023
Lives in Hyderabad

I was in a similar dilemma last year, and ended up choosing BITS Hyderabad. My friends who chose top EAMCET colleges regret their decision at present. BITS does not only offer good academics, it also gives a lot of opportunities and exposure to its students.

If you are passionate about CS, then opt for a dual degree program at BITS, or CS at other colleges. But if you do not have a specific branch in mind, opt for BITS. Later on, you might want to switch from engineering to some other sector, like finance.

The clubs and departments at BITS Hyderabad will give you ample exposure to understand your interests and goals. Moreover, top investment banks, and companies from various sectors visit the campus with good placement offers every year.

BITS Hyderabad has a far better placement record and brand name as compared to EAMCET colleges. It has a rich curriculum, unlike the EAMCET colleges, which give all the importance to theory, and coding is not taught properly. BITS Hyderabad has a good infrastructure with lush green campus.

Thus, if you do not have a specific branch preference, I would recommend BITS Hyderabad over EAMCET colleges any day.

What is the exact amount of money (donation) needed to get in CSE at Heritage Institute of Technology through the management quota?

SR
Senjuti Roy Posted On : September 21st, 2021
Studied Computer Science Engineering at Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata (2018)

The amount keeps changing every year. There is no fixed amount.

Nowadays, the college follows a system of seat-booking whereby you can book a seat if you are not quite sure about your admission to any college. You will have to pay a certain amount specified by the college and your seat will be booked in the stream that you want to opt for if you join the college.

The system is a little different and it is not exactly like the management quota in other colleges. The amount that you have to pay depends on which branch you want to opt for. The more demanding the branch, the more the amount of donation. For example, branches like Computer Science or Electronics are charged more than branches like Applied Instrumentation or Biotechnology.

I would recommend you book a seat and later decide whether you want to join or not. This will cost you less. But, you will have to decide within a short span of time otherwise the authority will move the list and give admission to a lower-ranked individual.

Is joining UIET Chandigarh (ECE) worth it?

RB
Rekha Bose Posted On : May 31st, 2021
Studied at University Institute of Engineering and Technology, Panjab University

Most colleges in India, even the top ones, usually fail to provide good placement opportunities for core branches like Electronics Engineering. The majority of the ECE students find their own way to get into consultancies, IT MNCs, or startups, some also choose to prepare for examinations like GATE and CAT.

UIET provides a good environment for the preparation of competitive examinations. Also, at least 50% of students of core branches in UIET prepare for GATE, CAT, or GRE. If you are expecting placement in one of the core branches, then don't join ECE in UIET rather take branches like CSE and IT.

If you are hardworking and want to prepare for GATE/CAT/GRE/ESE/UPSC then you can join UIET. Chandigarh has many good coaching centers for the preparation of these examinations.

How is IIIT Kota for CSE?

VS
Vidhi Sengupta Posted On : April 7th, 2021
B.Tech Electronics and Communication Engineering, IIIT Kota

The most important thing in engineering is your knowledge and skills. Doing well in academics does not ensure good placements. There have been many pieces of evidence where toppers could not fetch placement.

IIIT Kota is good in terms of placement. It is a national institute and gives you the tag of IIIT. But, when it comes to understanding between faculties and students, it has a way to go. This makes the environment not likable. A friend of mine attended the institute and didn’t quite like the environment there. 

Apart from this IIIT Kota is quite good for CSE, you will get to experience many things there. There are many hackathons, coding events, sports events in which you can take part. There are many timely workshops organized by Technical Club, Google DSC, and Microsoft Student Partner. FlairFiesta is the annual cultural-techno fest of the institute. 

So, overall IIIT Kota is a decent option for CSE.

Should I choose NEIGRIHMS Shillong over Kolkata Medical College?

AR
Arnav Roy Posted On : September 30th, 2023
Lives in Kolkata, West Bengal, India

I am a student of Medical College Kolkata, so I’ll try to justify joining this college for your MBBS-

  1. It is an old college with a great faculty. 
  2. The competition is quite high over here, so you’ll need to work really hard.
  3. The hospital sees a lot of patients daily, so you’ll get great exposure.
  4. The college street has ‘Boipara’ i.e. a street of books. Over here, you’ll find all the required books. Across the street, there is a stall that offers books at a good discounted rate.
  5. MCK is a brand in itself, and a dream of many medical aspirants.
  6. The seniors are very helpful and supportive. They will help you from the very start of your MBBS journey. 

NEIGRIHMS is a good college as well.But being an alumnus of KMC, I would encourage you to consider this college for your medical studies.

What is the performance of students in NEET PG after the MBBS course in KMC, Manipal?

SS
Shambhavi Sharma Posted On : September 30th, 2023
MBBS from Kasturba Medical College, Manipal

NEET PG is like any other entrance exam. So the UG college doesn’t really matter when giving your PG entrance. 

But it is true that your clinical postings have a bearing on the things you remember when reading your preparation material. Your exposure to clinical signs, diagnosis, radiological findings, and surgical procedures makes you remember things. A dedicated faculty, motivated peers, and hardworking seniors will have a huge impact on you. Good seniors offer tips and tricks on cracking entrance exams.

Coming to KMC Manipal, it is a premiere institute. It is at par with most government medical colleges. The alumni of this college can vouch for its good academics and campus life. 

You’ll have to prepare for your PG with efficiency and diligence. Your UG college won’t have much of a role in this regard. KMC Manipal is a good choice for an MBBS, and it will offer you all the facilities and exposure.
