How is SVKM's NMIMS Science department, specifically a B.Sc in applied statistics and analytics?
One of my friends is currently doing her Bachelor's in Science, specifically in Applied Science and Statistics from NMIMS- Kharghar campus. She has given me some input which I will be sharing with you.
Frankly, everything so far has been excellent for her. She appreciates the syllabus and all that's taught. The syllabus covers all that one needs to know about Data Science and its basics. My friend is about to get into the 3rd semester after this Corona wave is over.
The basics that were covered in first year were:
- Mathematics - Calculus
- Statistics - Descriptive
- Probability and Distribution
- Economics - Micro and Macro
For coding, she had: "C" language, DBMS, "R", SPSS, SCILAB and Python (from the second year of syllabus)
Actuarial Science and additional projects were added by the time she had reached her second year. You are seen as more experienced when you begin studying Actuarial Science. It is sufficient to cover all your basics that concern Data Science.
Along with a brilliant syllabus arrives a pretty hectic schedule. There are regular exams wherein you will only get a week for preparation. Not only this but there are presentations, assignments and projects to cover and submit before the deadline.
It is going to be a thrilling experience as all the knowledge and information will help you understand how to perform well under any circumstances with perfection.
How good is IIM Jammu when compared to other non IIM B-schools?
There are plenty of non-IIM business schools. The new IIMs are a better choice than most of them, simply because of the ‘IIM’ tag. ISB, JBIMS, XLRI, FMS, S.P.Jain and MDI are some of the handful of top business schools that are non IIMs. They stand above new IIMs.
As for the baby IIMs like IIM Jammu, consider them only if you can't get into a more renowned business school. These are very newly built IIMs. But by joining them, you can become a part of their progress journey. This is a great learning experience in itself. Plus, the baby IIMs are also mentored by the old and highly reputed IIMs.
If you feel that you have a very rich profile or your CAT scores can improve, sit for CAT again the following year.

I will get NIT Raipur, Puducherry, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh, Srinagar and Sikkim. Which one should I join?
The answer to this question depends on your personal preferences and expectations from your college-to-be.
If you prioritize infrastructure, NIT Srinagar has one of the most beautiful campuses among all the NITs. On the other hand, NIT Puducherry has a better faculty than all your other options.
Placement-wise, NIT Raipur has the best record among these colleges. However, the infrastructure and faculty of NIT Raipur are below average. But it is a good college for its sports facilities and senior-junior connections. There aren't any cases of ragging on its campus. Also, it offers better connectivity than the other NITs you’ve mentioned.
As for the northeastern NITs that you have mentioned, most people don’t choose them. This is because of lesser connectivity and a lack of overall facilities at them. Their placements aren’t at par with the other NITs. Also, you’ll experience totally different weather and culture over there. So you might face difficulties in adjusting.
Now the choice will also depend upon the branch you are offered at NIT Raipur, NIT Srinagar, and NIT Puducherry. If say, you are offered Biotech or Biomed at NIT Raipur and Civil at NIT Srinagar, without a doubt, go for the second option. Biotech and Biomed at NIT Raipur aren’t good choices.
