Which college should I choose between SIMS Pune and SIIB Pune where both are old and the same placements and SIMS fee is low but SIIB peer quality is good?

SH
Souman Halder Posted On : May 26th, 2021
MBA from Symbiosis Institute of Management Studies (2020)

SIIB is the third rank college in SNAP and has a high cutoff around 98 percentile. Since SIMS admits mostly students from defense backgrounds so the quality of peer of SIIB, is comparatively better.

There’s also another parameter that you should consider while choosing the right institute for your MBA, i.e. specialization.

  • For Marketing and Finance, go for SIIB Pune. It is definitely a better choice, with more companies on campus as compared to SIMS. 
  • If you are interested in Operation/SCM or HR go for SIMS. It has a large batch size for HR and Operations that ensures better placement opportunities and peer learning. 

Another factor that is crucial for choosing a management institute is ROI. SIIB offers a poor Return On Investment if you don't get the top jobs. However, recently SIIB is seeing very good placements. SIIB is better in long term.

Is the IPM program at IIM Indore very competitive? How many students take part in the IPM test every year on an average & what's the awareness level of IPM?

BR
Bhavna Rastogi Posted On : September 3rd, 2021
IPM from Indian Institute of Management Indore (2022)

IIM Indore is a major deal in and of itself. According to my friends studying at IIM Indore, around 15000 students (approximately) took the aptitude test last year.

  • This year's figures will rise as the IIM bill is enacted, and the first class of IPM graduates is placed 100% of the time, with an average package of 17.5 lakh. 
  • In the following years, it will undoubtedly be difficult. 
  • For the past three years, IPM has received between 15 and 19 thousand applications. 
  • Every year, 120 people are accepted. 
  • As a result, the math would lead you to believe it's more difficult to get into, than IITs and other prestigious institutions. 

But that is not just the case, you can get in if you have above-average intelligence and can solve problems quickly. If you approach the interview casually, admission can become difficult.

How is food at NIT Agartala?

PC
Pradeep Chowdhuri Posted On : September 18th, 2023
Studied at NIT Agartala

NIT Agartala has a variety of food options less for vegetarians and more for non-vegetarians. 

  • The mess food like any other college isn’t good at all and you will have to tolerate it somehow. Usually, paratha or Puri made with some watery chana or daal is served for breakfast, rice is served for lunch, and for dinner, you have options of both Chapati and Rice. For lunch and dinner, there will be two curries. You will have paneer, egg, fish, and chicken as well. Occasionally they serve salad and sweets as well. 
  • There is a separate South Indian mess for South Indians that serves the best food in terms of taste, price, and hygiene. The menu contains items like Idli, dosa, uttapam, bonda, vada, poori, parotta, biryani, fried rice, pulao, and occasionally dishes like pulihora, upma, bajji, curd rice, etc.
  • Eateries like College Point and Spicy Hut serve very good food at subsidized rates. Here, you can eat tandoori roti, tawa roti, rice, biryani, and a wide variety of curries in both veg and nonveg categories. Other famous eateries include Gagan, Dipankar da, Amul Shop, and Babul da.
  • Located in close proximity to the admin blocks the Foodies, serves only veg food. This place charges a bit higher than others and is open only during the day. 
  • NIT Agartala has many other small canteens where you can have a full meal at low prices.

So, there are many food options here catering to all kinds of taste buds!

How is UEM, Rajarhat? Is it safe to join?

NB
Neelanjana Bose Posted On : May 19th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering, University of Engineering and Management, Kolkata (2020)

I have a few friends who are alumni of UEM, Rajarhat and they don’t recommend the institute.

  • UEM mostly gives admission through management quota. The college takes admission with WBJEE scores up to 80,000. 
  • Most of the students get placement in IT companies as it is set up by the IEM group. The average CTC of the college is around 4 LPA

But IEM has its own college in Kolkata which is far more reputed than UEM. UEM Jaipur campus is also great for engineering. UEM Kolkata does have the potential to become as good as the Jaipur campus with time. But as of now, it is not that great.

Can I get admission in SRCC without studying Mathematics in class 12?

NJ
Nikita Jain Posted On : January 10th, 2022
B.Com. Hons. from Shri Ram College of Commerce (2017)

Delhi University almost every year comes up with a different set of rules and regulations. 

So even though you can get admission by securing 2.5% more than the declared cut off, however, the final list for General candidates was 97.25% last year. You might have to score a 99.75% in your class 12th examinations. 

In case cut offs increase, you will need a perfect 100 in 4 subjects. So getting in is really difficult.

If you are not from the general category, then the cut offs will be lower and you might get through even without mathematics.

However, in the beginning, the admission requirements change often, hence you may never know that some small changes in the rules might get you in. So always follow the official website of DU for any updates.

How is the placement at IIM Kashipur for freshers?

P
Parijat Posted On : January 5th, 2023
MBA from Indian Institute of Management Kashipur (Graduated 2020)

IIM Kashipur welcomes both freshers and experienced crowds. My sister has worked with both and says she learned a lot from both.

Most companies don’t choose between fresher or experienced 

Once you're able to get through the Group Discussion, make yourself stand out with your confidence and skills. Don’t let your background be a deciding factor for placements.

If anything, there is a difference in the roles offered to freshers and experienced only and not in the average package. Companies that offer specialized jobs prefer experienced students because of the nature of the job. Whereas some companies prefer fresher, particularly for the market and sales profile.

The placement report is as follows

Particulars 

IIM Kashipur 

Highest CTC

INR 48.50 LPA

Median CTC

INR 12.04 LPA

Top Recruiters 

Capgemini, ICICI Bank, Cognizant, HCL Technologies, BYJU’s , HDFC Bank, Accenture

Which branch is best for IEM Kolkata?

RG
Rajashree Ghosh Posted On : February 17th, 2021
Studied at Institute of Engineering and Management (2011)

IEM is best for its non-core (CSE/IT/ETC/ECE) placements comparatively that of core ones (CIVIL/MECHANICAL/ ELECTRICAL). Situated in the heart of the IT sector business area the companies visiting the campus for recruitment are mainly software companies.

  • Electronics and Communications Engineering (ECE) is the best branch in IEM. This I can say on the basis of closing rank for ECE which is generally the lowest when compared to other branches in IEM.
  • Technically, one should think and then go for choosing streams. Because, you never know whether your true potential lies with ECE or in any other stream.
  • Also, the other factor is that the recruitment which happens in IEM highly favors CSE and IT students, as most of the companies visiting the campus are IT companies or Tech startups.
  • IEM Kolkata is one of the best colleges and offers quality education. The faculty members for ECE are the best as compared to other core branches.
  • You can get easily placed if you pursue this branch.
  • However, if ECE is not your choice then, you can go with other branches as well. Whatever you are interested in, you should keep your firm choice.

The IT sector has seen a slump, the core placement doesn’t reach up to the mark. But, if you do choose electrical you may have an extra opportunity to sit in both the core and non-core.

  • Moreover, IEM is quite critical with its Electrical engineers and does hold a separate placement arrangement for Electrical students.
  •  Also, faculties are fine and IEM has improved its labs and faculty has strengthened all its branches slowly and gradually.
  • Overall you may judge it yourself based on the above points.

But choosing a branch totally depends upon you. If you really like CS or IT there is no reason to not to choose IEM; or any other branch you like. After all, it’s you who is going to adapt the particular field and enhance yourself in it in four years of time.

  • If you are interested in programming and have secured the required cut-off rank then go for CSE stream else go for ECE. But if your rank is not good enough to join the first two then go for IT stream.
  • Moreover, after the first year you can switch into the branch you like by just getting the cgpa around 8-9, which you have to do to enroll in the branch you think you can do well.

I sincerely hope you take the right decision and choose the branch which is best for you and not go with the flow and take the branch which stats say is the best branch in IEM.

Is it compulsory to live in hostel at KIIT?

AJ
Arun Jain Posted On : February 15th, 2024
Studied at KIIT

No, it is not compulsory to stay in the KIIT hostels. You can stay at some place else too. The mess food of the electronics hostel is not good. This is why some of my batchmates have rented apartments for themselves. They can cook, and they have an easy mode of transport like scooty/bike. Moreover, renting is not an expensive option over here. It is affordable.
