Is there a swimming pool facility at MNNIT Allahabad?
Though there is a swimming pool structure at MNNIT Allahabad, it has not been in use since the 90s. By the time I graduated from MNNIT in 2010, it was in complete ruins.
Numerous rumors have been circulating for a long time about its past. One of them is that a student drowned in the pool, and hence, it was closed. It is not a usable state, but even if it were, there are other problems as well.
The pool is near the boys' hostels, and is easily visible from there, so it is impossible to open it for girl students. Also, it is located near a railway bridge crossing the MNNIT campus, so outsiders from above can view the students taking a bath in it.
Thus, one can say that there is no practically usable pool at MNNIT Allahabad at present.
Is IIEST Shibpur better than average NITs like Kurukshetra, Jaipur, Bhopal, Surat and Patna for pursuing an M.Tech?
Yes, IIEST Shibpur is considered better than average NITs like Kurukshetra, Jaipur, Bhopal, Surat, and Patna for pursuing M.Tech. The learning opportunities and resources offered are better. The project works are considerably better. At IIEST Shibpur, you will get to do a real-time case project. This will make your profile stand out. The faculties are also better in comparison.
Which college should I choose between UIET Chandigarh and Thapar University for CSE?
To help you choose between UIET and Thapar University, here are a few comparisons-
- Infrastructure- The infrastructure of UIET is not good. Thapar University has a good infrastructure and you will really like it when you visit the institution. Also, do check the pictures of Thapar on instagram.
- Fees- The fees for Thapar University is extremely high. On the other hand, UIET fees are so affordable that you won’t even feel like you are paying college fees.
- Research- Panjab University is doing good in the area of research. But UIET in itself has not produced much output yet. On the other hand, Thapar excels in research quality. However, PU has a government funded innovation center and you may get an internship over there. This makes UIET also a good choice for a career in research.
- Brand Value- Panjab University is a big brand. However, its Engineering department is not as well recognized. Thapar is a well known engineering institution that has a high reputation in North India. It has a brand value at par with BITS and NITs.
- Alumni Network- UIET is new and has virtually no alumni network. Thapar is old enough and has a wide alumni network spread across various countries.
Thus, after considering various parameters, I would suggest you to opt for Thapar University for your CSE if its high fees is not an issue.

Make use of your time in college and never fail to score good grades
Which college is better? IBS or Athena school of management for PGDM course in Mumbai?
I would suggest you choose Athena over IBS. While both are in Mumbai, their teaching methods are very different. IBS emphasizes batch size, quantity (1000 students for the Mumbai college), a highly easygoing college life, and a curriculum with only one internship. Because there are no international internships or exchange programs, global exposure is not prioritized.
Athena focused on Corporate Connect, Quality of Intake (only 60 to 70 students), and a very demanding and busy education with many internships. There is a lot of foreign exposure with two overseas immersions and one international internship.
When it comes to jobs and placements, Athena has an average of 7.00 lacs each year and a large number of Pre Placement Offers. This means that all of their students receive jobs, with the exception of those who opt not to go through the placement procedure. IBS earns an average of 6-7 lacs a year, yet 200-250 students do not get jobs. This is a major issue when there are so many new students each year.
How is the branch change policy in IIT Patna?
The branch change policy of IIT Patna is very much similar to that of other new IITs except for a few changes. Here, the students change their branch after the 2nd semester. The eligibility criteria for branch change at IIT Patna are as follows
- You should have CPI greater than or equal to 8.0 to be eligible for branch change
- All the 1st and 2nd-semester courses should have been cleared in the first attempt.
- In case of a tie, the JEE rank of the applicants will be considered
- The total batch size after all the changes cannot change by more than 10% lower or higher.
IIT Patna invites applications for branch change after 2nd semester and students are ranked on the basis of their CPI.
Which engineering college can I choose among these four: Dayanand Sagar, BMS IT, CMR IT, MVJ College of Engineering for an ECE/EEE branch?
As a student of B.Tech EEE at BMS IT, I can confidently say that my college is a good choice for this branch.
It is a core branch, and EEE is an old department of BMS IT. The faculty and placements are also good at our department. Moreover, BMS IT has seen year on year improvement in its ranking.
I can only speak for BMS IT. According to me this is a good college, especially for EEE.
Where can I practice BITSAT mock test papers?
There are various options for online mock test series for practicing the BITSAT test papers. In the following, some of them are discussed.
MyPAT:
- This is relatively tougher than the actual question paper, but it prepares you for the worst case.
- This test series analyses the accuracy level of the student and identifies the weakness.
- It compares the student's performances with the other student all over the country, along with the average time that is taken in solving each question.
Embibe:
- It is another good mock test series for BITSAT. It has the same difficulty level as the actual test.
- It also has the previous year’s question set, which gives the student a basic idea regarding the pattern and difficulty level of BITSAT.
- The analysis given by Embibe is slightly less than FIITJEE but it is good enough.
TCY Online:
- It is the least challenging exam portal, and this exam portal is affordable to everyone.
- Besides, this exam portal is also different from the above mentioned two because this portal interfaces with the same test as the actual BITSAT test.
Keeping in mind the above considerations, it can be stated that MyPAT is the best to practice mock series for BITSAT test preparation.
