Which one is better IIITH or IIT Guwahati?
IIIT's curriculum is similar to IIT after which it has been designed. Under this curriculum, you have to complete all compulsory CS courses within 2 years and then you are open to explore a field of your choice through electives in the 3rd and 4th year. A few common electives include VISION, NLP, CSTAR, and many others. Some students use their free time to prepare for their Master, publish undergrad papers, and then move abroad for Masters. Others can be seen targeting an MBA. Consider the following things before making the final decision
- Placement trends over the past few years
- Curriculum especially the compulsory courses
- Number of research papers from undergrads
- Fee structure
- Campus Culture
Overall, IIIT Hyderabad is an excellent choice considering its rich research culture in comparison to IIT Guwahati.
Which one is better among them for a fresher without work experience: IIM Ranchi or IIM Trichy or IIM Raipur?
It's difficult to say which one is better IIM Ranchi, IIM Trichy, and IIM Raipur for a fresher without work experience, as it depends on your personal preferences and career goals.
Here are some factors to consider when making your decision:
- Batch Profiles: Whenever you join a new place, especially an IIM, it takes time to keep up with the pace of the professors. You will need students who will guide you in the same. Both Trichy and Ranchi are excellent in this aspect having diverse student backgrounds.
- Faculty: Another great way to evaluate an institute is to research the internal and visiting faculty as information sharing is an indispensable part of IIM culture. IIM Ranchi is said to have the best faculty from the best B-schools like IIM B, C, L and I. IIM Ranchi also has industry experts who’ve worked there for over 30 years and reached a CXO designation across respected corporate conduct classes for its students. These classes are full-fledged 30 hour credit courses. Basically, IIM Ranchi exposes you to the brilliant minds of the country.
- Placements: Since you will end up with a big loan to pay off by the end, it’s very important to look up the placement reports of the concerned institutes. Usually, IIM Ranchi ranks the best in terms of placements.

What should I choose between BITS Goa CS and IIT Roorkee Applied Maths?
Applied Maths at IIT Roorkee is a more viable alternative than BITS Goa CS provided that you have an interest in coding.
- The course structure of Applied Mathematics is quite similar to that of KGP MnC. Unlike the general assumption, this program isn’t research-oriented. Only a few who have a deep passion for Maths take up research as a much later endeavor.
- The best part of the program is the excellent job opportunities it offers. Its placements are second only to CS, the most preferred branch.
- You get to avail top-notch facilities provided by a leading IIT, Roorkee
- IIT Roorkee has the highest intake of this program even more than IIIT Hyderabad.
- The Applied Maths team bagged the 68th position in the ACM ICPC world Finals and the 2nd position in India.
- The course structure covers diverse topics like data structures, design, Analysis of algorithms, and discrete mathematics. All these topics help to strengthen the Computer programming base of students.
So, Applied Mathematics is a much better option than BITS Goa CS.
Between IIT Delhi and Bombay, which one has a better campus life?
I believe IIT Bombay has a better campus life than IIT Delhi. Here are a few points to prove the same
- Events: Asia's largest technical event Techfest and cultural event Mood Indigo are organized by IIT Bombay. These are much superior and better than IIT Delhi’s 'Tryst' and 'Rendezvous' in terms of planning, entertainment, and scale.
- Transport: IIT Bombay has its own elaborate bus service inside the campus that runs 24/7 on CNG. IIT Delhi on the other hand just has 3-4 buses that run not more than 4-5 times during morning and evening. Hardly all the students are able to avail of this service because the buses are always fully occupied.
- Exotic Powai Lake: The hostels of IIT Bombay especially H12 and H13 offer a picturesque view from the balcony or rooftop and give a calming effect to the students conducive to learning. IIT Delhi on the other hand is located in the most polluted city and the hostels offer a similar unhygienic view.
- Restrictions: IIT Bombay has no rules regarding girls' and boys' hostels and students are free to visit opposite-gender hostels. IIT Delhi gives no such relaxation and gender mix is possible only during House Day, which is held once a year.
- Food and refreshments: IIT Bombay has an abundance of food and refreshments offered through kiosks, food stalls, and ice cream parlors. Although IIT Delhi too provides snacks, its food is not comparable to IIT Bombay.
- Mess food: IIT Bombay serves both non-vegetarian and vegetarian in their real sense whereas IIT Delhi caters to North Indians' taste buds mainly and the quality of food is also lower than IIT Bombay.
Some might find the above differences too minor, for them, it’s better to choose the one that aligns with their own preferences like location, etc.
Can I leave engineering mechanics as an exception in the JNTUH R16?
As per the Academic Regulations R16 of JNTUH, once you have secured 192 credits you can leave 02 courses (06 credits). These might be
- one open elective and one professional elective subject
- two professional elective subjects for optional dropout,
As a result, you will have a total of 186 credits for your performance evaluation. Only these 186 credits will be taken into consideration for the calculation of your CGPA and the same will be mentioned in your grade card.
However, it’s important to note that you have to secure all 192 credits. The option of leaving 2 subjects is just to improve your CGPA.
From the above information, it can be concluded that you cannot be exempted from the Engineering Mechanics course because it is one of the Foundation courses of Engineering and not an elective.
Where should one pursue economics, Jadavpur University or Lady Brabourne College?
My sister studied economics at Lady Brabourne College for 3 years and from that experience, she came to realize that Jadavpur University would've been the better option.
The subjects taught at Lady Brabourne College were very hectic and lengthy answers were asked in exams and even then you will be given low marks.
Whereas in Jadavpur university, the faculty number is vast and they are all very well read and experts in their fields. Amartya Sen is one of the JU professors. You will find that the semesters are well spaced too so that even if you study all year long, it won't feel like a burden. Economics has not only a very advanced syllabus but also a very brilliant faculty who focus on the development of students and remain unaffected by university politics.
One thing is for sure, that as a JU student you will not require tuition fees because the faculty will always be ready to solve all your doubts and answer each query.
What are good and bad things about doing engineering in jntuh Hyderabad? Is it worth of doing undergraduation in JNTUH?
JNTUH is a very popular and reputed college and this college offers various kinds of courses such as B.Tech, IIDP, Dual degree program, etc. One of my friends studying there said, there are a lot of good and bad things about the college. He said that these will probably improve.
Here are some of the good things about this college.
- It is the top-ranked college in Telangana excluding IIT Hyderabad and BITS.
- Their course curriculum is very good.
- The placement opportunities available in this college are amazing. A record of 100% placements for CSE & ECE branches.
- The placements for Mechanical, Civil, and EEE branches are much less, around 40%.
- The faculty is talented and highly experienced.
- There is a separate hostel for first-year students to avoid ragging. They also have a separate international hostel available for NRI students.
- There are 2 libraries, the college, and the university library. A digital library is available equipped with high-speed internet.
- There is also a sports complex including facilities for table tennis, badminton, basketball, and a gym.
- There is no dress code, students can wear casuals.
Here are some of the bad things about JNTU Hyderabad:

- Internships are only being offered to CSE and ECE students and the placements of other branches are poor.
- Convocation is done in the college only for the toppers of each department which is quite unfair for the rest of the students.
- The laboratories available inside the campus are not very good.
These are some of the good things about this college and if these problems are being resolved, then this college can be one of the best engineering colleges in our country.
Should I take up math and computing at IIT Delhi, or B.Math at ISI Bengaluru?
Whether you should opt for MnC at IIT Delhi or B.Math at ISI Bangalore depends on what you want from your graduation and your career prospects.
Academically both institutes are excellent and none is better than the other. So my answer entails the drastic difference in the curriculum and scope of the two programs.
Bachelor of Mathematics, ISI Bengaluru
This program has high-tech mathematical stuff and purely focuses on Mathematics. The Institute is smaller than IIT Delhi and ideal for those who have a single passion in life, Maths. The coursework consists of abstract algebra, analysis, probability theory, and so on. Additionally, it has compulsory courses in Statistics, Probability, and Physics as well. Although it offers some CS courses also, the program does not focus on Computer Science much.
Math and Computing (MnC), IIT Delhi
The curriculum of the MnC program is more inclined toward computer science than Mathematics. The program focuses more on applied mathematics, rather than pure mathematics. As a result, graduates from this course can start jobs earlier than those from ISI.
In a nutshell, if you are willing to go for higher education and research in mathematics, then ISI should be your goal. If you are a person interested in the practical application of concepts and want to eventually be employed in a company, then IIT Delhi is the best place for you.
Which should I choose? IIEST or NIT Sikkim?
Both IIEST and NIT Sikkim are excellent institutes for engineering in India. There are several aspects in which one of the two institutes is ahead of the other. The points below elaborate on those factors for both the institutes to give a brief overview of both the campuses.
- IIEST has a much better infrastructure than NIT Sikkim, being a much older and established institute. IIEST is the second oldest college in India. The buildings of IIEST are quite old. But, the overall campus is huge, consisting of all kinds of required facilities.
- NIT Sikkim is one of the new NITs, and so does not have a permanent campus. But, the temporary campus is worth living on. It has a view of mountains all around and is situated at a hill station. Even being a small campus, it is filled with required amenities.
- The hostels of NIT Sikkim have some problems due to their recent establishment. But, they are good overall, having spacious rooms and corridors.
- IIEST hostels are good too but are very old. They are not that well-maintained. But, you will get used to it eventually.
- Although NIT Sikkim is a new NIT, it has been showing good placement statistics in recent years. There are companies like the power grid, Intel, etc, that visit the campus for placement. According to the placement highlights of 2020, the average and highest CTC offered at the institute are 8 LPA and 18 LPA.
- The placement of IIEST is definitely very good with great packages for CSE, IT, and ECE branches. In 2020 the highest CTC offered by the institute was 39 LPA.
Overall, both the colleges are decent in their own aspects, providing several opportunities to students in fields of placement and research. It is on you to do good research about both, observe the key highlights, and then make a decision.
Is branch change option available in NIT Raipur?
Yes, NIT Raipur offers a branch change option after 2nd semester. The availability of the branch change option depends on the availability of vacant seats in a specific branch. You will need a CPI of 7.5+ to apply for branch change. You can enlist 10 choices of branches while applying. Once submitted, you can’t alter the choices.
