Having been a topper in all my unit tests how should I prepare further for my anna university "first semester" exam to get a cgpa of 10?

Having mentioned that you are a topper in all the unit tests, getting a CGPA of more than 9 would be an easy task for you. Having 20 marks in all your internals would be even more beneficial.

To get a CGPA of 10 is possible, in your first year. Here are some things you should keep in mind for your preparation.

  • Utilize study holidays effectively – For the first semester examinations, the gap between them maybe a day or two. You have to complete the syllabus in the 10 to 15 days of study holidays. Make sure to revise every important portion the day before the exam.
  • Engineering Graphics – Practice more drawings and present the diagrams clearly and neatly. It is a 4 credit paper.
  • Engineering Mathematics – Do not just read the problems, work them out then and there. This will make you confident on the day of your exam.
  • Engineering Physics and Chemistry – The physics and chemistry papers are much easier compared to the class 12th syllabus. Study the textbook thoroughly. Understand the concepts. Present the answers with diagrams wherever necessary. Instead of writing long paragraphs, use points.
  • Technical English – Focus on the grammar first, Examiners tend to read that part fully while evaluating. So try getting full marks in that part which creates a good impression. That might help to get more marks in the forthcoming sections.

Presentation is one of the most important aspects. While writing use blue or black pens. Write answers in points and use Sub-headings. Try to keep your answer sheet neat and tidy and avoid unnecessary scribbling.

Should I choose IIT Bhubaneswar or Anna University for an M.Tech in VLSI?

NA
Nishant Arora Posted On : December 16th, 2022
Ph.D. from Indian Institute of Technology, Bhubaneswar (IITBBSR)

Whether it is new or old, an IIT is still an IIT. Once you complete your degree, you will always be an IITian and be eligible for its advantages throughout your professional life. Electrical Sciences, the category under which ECE falls, is in an average position in terms of placement. 

During the IIT Bhubaneswar placement in 2022, the highest salary offered to BTech students was INR 44.10 LPA. Additionally, the highest packages for BTech and MTech were INR 44.10 LPA and INR 17.13 LPA, respectively, during IIT BBS placements in 2022. 88% of applicants are placed. There are some problems with it because it is a new IIT.

Does Anna University accept JEE Scores?

AR
Aadya Rathi Posted On : May 3rd, 2026

No, Anna University does not accept JEE Main scores for its regular B.E./B.Tech admissions.

Anna University (including affiliated colleges in Tamil Nadu) admits students through:

  • TNEA (Tamil Nadu Engineering Admissions) — purely based on Class 12 PCM marks. No entrance exam. This is the primary route for Tamil Nadu students.
  • Management Quota — direct admission with higher fees, but still based on eligibility criteria, not JEE scores.

JEE Main is not used by Anna University or its affiliates at all. This is different from NITs/IIITs where JEE is mandatory.

one thing worth knowing — 15% seats at private engineering colleges in Tamil Nadu fall under the All India Quota, which is filled via JEE Main through JOSAA/CSAB. these are NOT Anna University seats — they're at private colleges like SRM, VIT, Amrita etc. Anna University government college seats are all through TNEA only.

so if you're specifically targeting Anna University CEG (College of Engineering Guindy) or other Anna University constituent colleges — focus on your Tamil Nadu board marks and TNEA rank, not JEE Main.

How much of a stipend does a Ph.D. student get from Anna University?

SS
Sattvik Sharma Posted On : December 5th, 2022
Studied at Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India

To begin with, Anna University will not provide a stipend to every Ph.D. student. A written exam based on their ME stream will be administered. The top 2-3 scorers on that written exam will receive a stipend of INR 16,000 per month. Aside from this, other scholarships such as Delta Sigma Pi (DSP), FIST, and PURSE should be applied for during the open call. When the time comes, you should present your project. 

The JSET scholarship should be applied for before enrolling in the Ph.D. program, which will be based solely on GATE scores. Muslims and Christians are eligible for the Moulana Asad scholarship (Minority Scholarship Scheme). If you are a university topper in your ME program, you can apply for the INSPIRE scholarship.
