Can I go with Subharti University for a correspondence course?

SS
Shivam Sharma Posted On : September 30th, 2021
B.Com from Swami Vivekanand Subharti University (2019)

Subharti Institution is a Meerut-based private university. Some of my friends studied there. They said it is very easy to cheat in exams. Now, this kind of reputation isn't that excellent. 

But yes, you can go with Subharti University for correspondence courses because it follows all the Government recognition like UGC, DEB, AIU, AICTE . It means your degree will be valid from this University globally.

Though it is suggested that IGNOU would be a better option.

Will KIIT refund my 65K (after counselling and taking a seat) If I don't wanna take admission?

IM
Ira Mishra Posted On : February 15th, 2024
B.Tech in CS from KIIT

Yes, your money will be refunded even after you attended the counseling and took a seat at KIIT. They will cut some amount in the name of normal procedure/registration fee, and refund the rest to you. You’ll receive back at least 50k-55k. 

For someone who did not attend the counseling, their rank in the entrance is of no use.

Has anyone appeared for the entrance exam for the Mahatma Gandhi Fellowship Program of IIM Bangalore? If yes, how was the experience?

AS
Ashmita Saha Posted On : July 31st, 2021
BS-MS from Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, Bhopal (2018)

A friend of mine has recently appeared in the entrance exam of the MGNF program of IIM Bangalore and Ministry of Skill Development and he even qualified for the written exam.

He wrote the examination and just received a confirmation email for the interview process. He briefly gave an overview of the different sections of the Entrance paper which is as follows.

  • In the General Awareness section, you will have around 10 questions and the level of the questions are not very high. There were questions about a metal that is found in the liquid state, capital of Tripura, civil disobedience movement launched by the newest state of India, etc.
  • In the Data Interpretation and Logical Reasoning section, there are a total of 30 questions. There would be two sets (5 questions each) based on a bar graph and the graph would be quite easy to read. You can solve them by using the approximation method because questions are mainly ratio-based.
  • Then there would be one set (5 questions) based on the pie graph which again was very easy to read and answer. Only one catch in one question is that you should know the conversion of hectares to acres. One very easy set based on the linear sitting arrangement and a few questions based on simplification. There was only one set based on some missing/incomplete tables which were tough and time-consuming.
  • Let us now move to the next section which was Quantitative Ability, again there would be 30 questions on topics like percentages, ratio proportion, averages, Simple interest, ages, probability, TSD, circles, cubes, time, and work, and few questions were based on simplification.
  • The final section of the paper is Reading comprehension and Vocabulary, again there you will have 30 questions. There were 4 small RCs consisting of 10 questions and most of the questions based on RC were inferred based on only 1 or 2 questions based on facts so this part of the paper would be a little tricky. The other 20 questions were easy to moderate level based on Synonyms, antonyms, odd man out, fillers, sentence correction, and one question was based on analogy.

So overall, I would say the paper would be easy but the only constraint would be time. Only 120 minutes for 100 questions. Out of 100 questions, 55-60 questions would be really easy and doable.

How did Mr Abhinandan become one of the best coders from MNNIT Allahabad? How is he like in real life?

AS
Abhinav Sharma Posted On : May 14th, 2021
Studied at MNNIT Allahabad (2017)

Abhinandan Aggarwal is one of the prominent coders of India. He studied B.tech from MNNIT Allahabad and became the most exceptional coder of that MNNIT Allahabad has ever witnessed. 

He was the batch mate of my brother and I have heard a lot of stories about him. 

  • Abhinandan did his first coding when he was a kid, merely in grade eight. He was given to multiply big numbers as his homework and doing it manually was too mainstream for him so, he wrote a code to do it instead. 
  • Besides being exceptional in academics, every one from his batch knows that Abhinandan is a fun person in real life. 
  • My brother was also in awe of Abhinandan’s great taste when it comes to music. My brother describes him as very sociable and kind. From movie plans to trips he was always up to take the initiative. Among his peers, he was known as ‘The God’. 

As for how Abhinandan became so good at coding, he was born to code. Apart from being intelligent, he was also quite hardworking. These are probably the secrets behind his coding legacy.

The rooms are generously sized and equipped with LAN connections for internet use. With washing machines, urinals, and several toilet and bathing stalls, each hostel wing features a communal set of toilets that are used by about 8 rooms.

Few important rules and regulation that needs to be followed by the hostellers are as follows

  • Both within and beyond the campus, residents are expected to treat everyone with respect and fairness.
  • Institute Identity Cards must be carried by all residents at all times and shown upon request.
  • Before 11:00 p.m., all residents are required to return to their hostels. The relevant Warden may give permission for a late arrival.

How easy is it to convert XIMB?

AM
Aratrika Mohanty Posted On : April 17th, 2021
MBA General Management, Xavier Institute of Management, Bhubaneswar (2018)

In terms of converting XIMB Bhubaneswar or any B-school for that matter, it is the same. If someone has cracked it in his/her first attempt, then cracking XIMB would be easier. If someone has gone through the entire selection process multiple times without success, then it would be a herculean task.

  • The first thing that is in your control is your score in CAT or XAT. Try to score as much as possible to bolster your application. 
  • The next step would be handling your interviews. 
  • Practice writing and give your best possible shot at the WAT. 
  • Present your best of abilities to the interview panel with a calm demeanor. 
  • Do not overburden yourself with cracking the interview and be as open to them as possible.
  • Some basic knowledge in your domain of expertise (undergraduate major) is a must. 
  • You should know all the projects you have done in your academic as well as professional life thoroughly. 
  • Some basic knowledge about the world of business, the state of Odisha (XIMB’s home state) as well as your own home state is a plus.
  • Remain updated about recent news and happenings around the world, as questions related to them will be asked very often.

These are certain tips for personal interview (PI) preparation that may or may not work for everybody. Ultimately, converting XIMB Bhubaneswar is in your hands and how well you put yourself.

Which is best among PESIT (south campus), PES University (Banashankari) and PES College of Engineering (Mandya)?

KC
Kavya Chowdhury Posted On : May 2nd, 2026

PES University Bangalore campuses — comparison:

  • PESIT South Campus (Bangalore South): the original PESIT campus. strong engineering programs, good placements, established faculty. part of the PES group. autonomous college. Bangalore location advantage
  • PES University Banashankari/Ring Road campus: the main PES University campus (after obtaining university status). deemed university — can grant its own degrees. better for flexibility and updated curriculum. PESSAT entrance exam
  • PES College of Engineering Mandya: outside Bangalore, smaller campus. less prestigious than the Bangalore campuses. good for local/Karnataka students who want PES brand at lower admission cutoffs

ranking: PES University (Ring Road) ? PESIT South Campus > PES College Mandya

PES University getting deemed university status means it has more academic freedom. for placements in IT (Infosys, Wipro, TCS, some product companies), PES University and PESIT South are both solid Bangalore engineering options. if you're comparing these three — PES University main campus or PESIT South for Bangalore placements; avoid Mandya unless there's a specific reason.
