Remarks

The college management is superb. The management provides transportation facility, doctor facility, etc. on time.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

This course's duration is 3 years and comprises mainly of Mathematics and Computer Science. It is research driven. Also, this institute is one of the top institutes in India for carrying research. Also, one classroom batch in this institute doesn't comprise too much students, so it is relevant too.

Placement Experience

1.5

There are less placement offers by the private companies as this institute is research-based and the students either go for further studies to the USA, Canada, etc. or they opt for research/higher studies.

College Events

The institute conducts many events such as Quiz competition, festival events, etc. Some are big and are held for a long duration such as 5-6 days and some are held for a short duration such as 1 day or less than that. Sometimes it doesn't conduct any event even on a large day, due to some great and unavoidable circumstances.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The academic fee for each semester is Rs.1 Lakh and fee for the mess, hostel, and other expenses is around Rs.50,000 per semester. However, it also provides a fee waiver for the students who are talented (i.e., qualified for admission) but are not eligible to pay the fee.

Fees and Financial Aid

I have not availed any extra scholarship but has qualified for half fee waiver by the institute itself.

Campus Life

2.5

Campus life is also good. I don't know much about the gender ratio. It conducts extracurricular activities, sports, competitions, etc. It also has a computer lab. The institute is also wifi enabled. It has on campus mess facility and transportation facility for the students.

Hostel Facilities

Hostel fee is around Rs. 50000 per semester and it also includes a mess facility, transportation facility, etc. Hostel facilities are also good including on-time doctor facility, bus facility for shopping, etc. It has wifi enabled campus and computer labs which are available to all the hostel students.

External Expense: Rs.4000 - Rs.7000

Alumni/Alumna

Yes, They are helpful. Seniors are always ready to help anyone and especially juniors. They also help in doubt clearing.

Admission

I appeared in the CMI Entrance test on 15-May-2019 in which I was selected for admission into this institute. Later on I received a mail regarding fee waiver. I applied for the same and as the documents were verified, I was selected for 50% fee waiver.

Faculty

2.5

The faculty are also too good. They help students a lot. Also, they are well qualified and best degree holders. They are experienced and teaches friendly. Doubt solving sessions are also held by the faculties. They help students at each and every point.

THE IDEAL COLLEGE LIFE!

Likes

The opportunities to meet new people and interact with a whole new circle of people by Club Activities as there are quite a lot of clubs according to the student's interest.
Many places to showcase our singing and dancing talent once we join the club or take part in any of the department events.
They have multiple labs for a single department so that the students get a lot of hands on training for coding and as well as hardware.

Dislikes

4:3 Ratio of Girls to Boys in my class and i hope it's the same for all the departments as well.
The college timing can go from 8:30 AM to 5:10PM.
The 75% attendance is kind of doable and maintainable to an extent.

Placement Experience:

about 70 to 80 percent of the students get placed afdter the colleg and the ones not placed also gets placed after the college with high network and communication from other contacts within the college, ZOHO Corp does take placements and i am preparing for my CAT exams as i am planning for My highers at IIM, 5th semester is when the students become eligible for the campus placements and the seniors are a good connection who help to get places and get a job after the completion of degree.

cmi is amazing!

I studied at IIIT-H last year before dropping out and joining here. I joined IIIT-H because it is also a research focused institute and I hoped to do more maths. The very intense computer science workload shooed me away. I also applied to BITS goa and got in for the physics programme. I chose Chennai Mathematical Institute over that because it has a far better curicullum. Admission process of CMI: If you are selected for any olympiad camps, you are directly admitted to CMI. The college conducts a test aroun mid-may. The test has two parts: objective and subjective. part A is mostly a screening test and whoever passes the cutoff for part A has their part B paper checked. You're admitted purely based on your performance on the test. If you did get an admission letter, you are also required to pass 12th grade or its equivalent. The cutoffs for the 2024 entry test are : 58/120(General Category and Males) 47/120(other categories) : With Scholarship Wthout Scholarship : 47/120, 39/120...Read More
