Which one should be chosen: Great Lakes Chennai PGP or ISB Mohali PGP?
I will begin by clarifying that ISB is a single Institute with two campuses and not separate institutes. Anyone who has options for ISB and Great Lakes should go for ISB without any second thoughts.
ISB is better than Great Lakes in almost every aspect be it academics, reputation, faculty, research opportunities, and placement. If you don’t believe me, contact the alumni of both and you will realize the difference.
I have done Btech in ECE and I have 5 years of work experience as a senior data engineer in an MNC. Can I get admission in University of Toronto without GRE.
No, GRE is not compulsory for admission to the University of Toronto. It is optional for the University of Toronto, but it's highly recommended that you submit with a good score, as it adds credibility to your application. More than the university, the requirement for GRE depends on the specific program that you are applying to at the University of Toronto. It’s better to check your program's website.
- The website of the University of Toronto for the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering stated that a GRE score is not required.
- The Civil Engineering Department also doesn't require the GRE.
- The website of the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering also does not require it.
- The Department of Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry did not state anything about the GRE requirements.
Thus it can be safely concluded that there is no GRE requirement as such for MS in the University of Toronto. However, it is always recommended to have a standardized exam score like GRE for Graduate studies as this will improve your chances of admission.
Which college is better, VESIT Mumbai or VIIT Pune?
-Choosing between VESIT Mumbai and VIIT Pune is a personal decision that depends on your individual preferences and priorities. Both colleges are reputed engineering colleges and have their own strengths and weaknesses.
VESIT Mumbai, affiliated to the University of Mumbai, offers undergraduate and postgraduate courses in various engineering fields. The college has a good reputation for its academics and a strong faculty team. It also has a decent campus infrastructure and placement opportunities.
On the other hand, VIIT Pune, affiliated to Savitribai Phule Pune University, is known for its excellent academic and research programs in the field of engineering. The college has a strong industry-academia interface, with tie-ups with various reputed companies for placements and internships. It also has a well-maintained campus and offers a range of extracurricular activities to its students.
The final decision between VESIT Mumbai and VIIT Pune should depend on your priorities, such as your preferred location, course offerings, faculty, campus infrastructure, and placement opportunities. It would be best to visit the colleges, speak to the faculty and students, and gather more information before making a decision.
Which NIT Trichy, Warangal or Surathkal is better for ECE?
all three are top NITs for ECE — genuinely close comparison:
NIT Trichy ECE: most consistent placement record, Chennai+Bangalore proximity = excellent ECE industry access. strong alumni nationally. avg ~Rs.15-20 LPA.
NIT Warangal ECE: strong VLSI research, Hyderabad semiconductor ecosystem nearby (Qualcomm, Intel). excellent technical culture. avg ~Rs.14-18 LPA.
NIT Surathkal ECE: close to Bangalore, strong in signal processing and comms research. solid placements. avg ~Rs.14-18 LPA.
verdict: NIT Trichy ? NIT Warangal > NIT Surathkal by a small margin. Trichy wins on placement consistency and brand. Warangal wins for semiconductor research. Surathkal is excellent too. any of these is a great ECE career launchpad — choose based on location comfort if you have options.
Which school is better, MDI Gurgaon or IIM K, if I want to be an equity research analyst?
If you go to the official website and compare the placement reports, MDI Gurgaon fares better than IIM Kozhikode. Let’s have a look at the placement statistics of the 2 B Schools.

The best finance companies that offer roles like Equity Research Analyst roles, and Securities analysis visit both the B Schools. But the higher number of companies visiting MDI Gurgaon gives it a slight advantage over IIM Kozhikode. Yet I think both MDI Gurgaon and IIM-K are almost equal in terms of giving you the opportunity of getting an Equity Research Analyst role. If I was in your place I would have chosen MDI Gurgaon because of the following factors
- Location
- Infrastructure
- The industry-academia relationship
- Live Projects
- Guest Lectures
- Corporate Talks
- Peer learning
How much percentage of marks is needed to get a 9+ CGPA in KJ Somaiya College of Engineering (Since it has become autonomous)?
KJ Somaiya does not follow a relative grading system.
Before answering your question let's discuss how to calculate the grade of a particular subject. Every subject has its own credits which are preassigned (1,2,3 etc.). For example
-
- If you scored 90 in math 1, then you'll get a 10 grade point ( anything above 85 gives you 10 grade points).
- The next step is to multiply the grade point and credits (ie. 10*4=40).
- Next add up the results for all the subjects.
- Calculation of CGPA= Added result of all subjects/maximum possible grade point*credit total.
So we can say that securing a 9+ pointer is fairly easy in the First Year at KJ Somaiya. All you need is an average of around 80-85% in semesters and you'll be above the 9-pointer mark.

Which institute is better to join, NIEM or NAEMD?
NIEM would be a preferable choice above NAEMD. NIEM stands out as one of the top-notch universities in the nation for event management. It's been recognized globally and even mentioned in the Limca Book of World Records as the first and the best event college. They collaborate and have agreements with notable organizations like CII, EMAI, FICCI, and Ad Club. NIEM provides a full-time diploma in event management.

What is the lowest undergraduation percentage to get into IIM Ahmedabad or old the IIM?
I know someone who got admission at IIM Ahmedabad and here is his profile.
- Work experience- None (0 years)
- High school percentage- 91.45%
- Intermediate percentage- 76.33%
- Undergraduate percentage- 67.21%
- CAT score: 98.85 percentile
However, I will advise you to not concentrate on these trivial facts. Prepare well and give your best in CAT.
If you manage to score a percentile of 99, then you can confidently anticipate a phone call from any old IIM. After that, it comes down to the way you present yourself in the GD PI round. That would eventually be your real test.
