What should I choose between BITS Pilani EEE or IIT Guwahati engineering physics?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : May 4th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

Both BITS Pilani and IT Guwahati are reputable institutions with strong engineering programs. It’s highly recommended that you go through the contents of the curriculum once before opting for any major. Most students skip this and regret it later as they are forced to study courses they least expected. Go through the books of these courses and determine if the matter intrigues you or not. 

IIT Guwahati Engineering Physics program covers a wide spectrum of fields. Although the placement scenario is average, it definitely quenches your thirst for knowledge of Physics and also prepares you for higher studies. 

Another good option for core physics is MSc at Kanpur or Kharagpur. Although EP will expose you to multiple options, you will require another degree. It’s better to analyze your interests deeply before making the final decision.

As far as the EEE at BITS Pilani is concerned, I am strongly against anyone joining BITS irrespective of the branch they choose. The curriculum is poorly structured and lacks flexibility. The placement scenario is deteriorating day by day. The exposure offered is null and thus BITS Pilani should be your last option when all doors are closed. You will end up wasting your time and money with no solid knowledge up your sleeve by the end of 4 years.

Ultimately, the decision of which program to choose depends on your personal preferences and career goals.

Should I do a BBA from Christ University or IBS hyderabad?

SC
Sathwik Chandra Posted On : February 14th, 2023
MBA in Marketing, ICFAI Business School, Hyderabad (Graduated 2018)

It’s your attitude towards learning that matters more than the college itself. Yet if I have to comment on the two colleges, I would say Christ University is a fairly good choice. The main reasons are

  • The fest culture makes you come out of your comfort zones and test your limits and diversify your talents.
  • The overqualified rules set by the college increase your patience level ten folds
  • You get to live in Bangalore, the city of innumerable opportunities and dreams.

However, if you are joining the college with the mindset of being taught then you need to rectify it. Here it’s you who has to force yourself to learn no one is going to push you. Anyone who wants to learn about business, in reality, will not be able to gain much from this B School. The B School churns out managers only. Rarely does it give birth to a business owner or entrepreneur despite the university’s module for entrepreneurship in a semester.

Should I go for an MBA at IBS Hyderabad, or in UPES Dehradun?

GC
Garvit Chhabra Posted On : February 13th, 2023
Studied at Institute of Technology and Science, Mohan Nagar, Ghaziabad

I hope you have already decided on your specialization. So it’s better that you go for that specific course than a regular MBA at UPES Dehradun. If you take up the regular MBA you will have to study general subjects in the first year and your choice of specialization subjects in the second. Whereas if you go for MBA in International Business or Logistics and Supply Chain Management, you'll be taught subjects concerning that specialization from semester one itself. This will help you in the long run.

One more thing you should know is that for International Business, IBS Hyderabad is a much better choice than UPES. The placement scenario at UPES for IB is yet to improve.

Do tech companies like Google, Microsoft, Flipkart, or Uber, visit FMS, Delhi for product management roles?

S
Sagardeep Posted On : January 10th, 2023
Product Manager

Not really, at least not yet. Product management is a growing field that has received a lot of attention in recent years. What you need to be a successful Product Manager is an interdisciplinary education, not necessarily a traditional MBA. You must understand product development, including how a product evolves from an idea to a full-fledged product, how iteration occurs, and how you continuously generate value for your product's users. FMS is a fantastic school in terms of the talent it attracts in India. If you want to be a PM and strengthen your foundation in Comp Sci fundamentals, Strategy and Marketing can help you understand the market. Improve your knowledge of a specific industry. 

Take a design thinking course. It will teach you how to put the various puzzle pieces together, such as the user's needs, goals, company goals, vision, and value proposition, to arrive at feature recommendations for the product. Domain expertise is required to understand the problems that exist in that industry and what product is required to address them. To stay ahead of technological trends, you must ride the wave and build the right things at the right time. Follow the blogs of some of the best product people who have shared their wisdom. Learn it and put it into practice. The best way to learn product management is to create something on your own.

Is XUB different from XIMB? What is the fee structure for XUB and placements?

SP
Shivam Putra Posted On : March 13th, 2023
Former Consultant at KPMG (2019–2021)

XUB is not exactly different from XIMB. XUB comprises more schools like

  • school of commerce
  • school of mass communication
  • school of economics and sustainability development

In addition there are several PG courses like MBF and it now even offers graduation in Science. Despite the variety of courses offered, the primary focus is MBA. While at XIMB the only course offered is MBA.

Both the campuses are well built far from the city saving them from hectic city traffic. XUM still has some buildings under construction. Excellent food and transport facilities make them a more attractive choice. 

Of the two, XIMB was established earlier so enjoys more brand name and value than XUB. XIMB value can be determined through All India Rankings which is not possible in the case of XUB.

How's the condition of VSSUT hostels?

MS
Muktesh Shukla Posted On : October 11th, 2023
VSSUT, Burla

Currently, VSSUT has 11 Hostels out of which 6 are boys hostels while 5 are girls hostels. 

Boys

There are 4 old boys' hostels and 2 new ones. The old ones are West(Kratu), East(Atri), North (Vasistha) and South (Marichi), the condition of which isn’t very good. The rooms are in poor condition and the food served is the same every day. However, it has a well-maintained Central Garden and huge cricket fields. Additionally, you will find a TT room, TV room and Common room in all these four hostels. The North Hostel and South Hostels also have a library. The new hostels are Pulaha and Pulasthya which are designed excellently and have modern facilities. 

 Girls

VSSUT has 5 girls' hostels namely Anuradha, Arundhati, Visakha, Rohini, and Angira. From what I have heard from my fire dad, the food served is pathetic, even worse than boys' hostels.

Summing up, I would like to say that hostel life, be it anywhere, is about adjusting and creating memories with limited resources.

Which is better, CMC Vellore or AFMC? Which college would provide me an assured seat in PG?

CS
Chinmayi Srivatsa Posted On : September 22nd, 2023
Lives in Chennai

Without any second thoughts, choose AFMC over CMC because it ranks higher than most other medical colleges in the country. AFMC provides excellent exposure and opportunities to its students both in terms of academics as well as research. The most appealing aspect of the institute is that it’s a government college so the tuition is almost free of cost. CMC on the other hand is a private medical college that charges a high fee. 

Although there isn’t a guarantee of a PG seat in any medical college, I can say that if you have done MBBS in AFMC then your chances of getting a PG seat are very high.

Overall, the top-notch academic ambiance and the highly qualified faculty pool make it an excellent choice and therefore should certainly be considered over CMC Vellore.
