  • ROI: Another aspect I feel one should consider is the ROI which is low in case of SRM. The fees are extremely high in comparison to the academic standards but the surety of placements makes people choose it anyway.
  • Campus Life: You get to experience amazing college life with lots of creative activities and new things to learn.

Ultimately it’s you who decides whether a certain college is right for you or not, so do your part of the research and make a wise decision.

Lives in Bhubaneshwar

I am a CSE student at IIT Patna and I will try to justify why choosing IIT Patna for your

CSE is a good decision. Don’t base your choice on how old an institution is. 

All the new IITs like IIT Patna or IIT Jodhpur are doing exceptionally well, some are even competing against the old IITs. IIT Patna has a great campus and it has achieved tremendous success in a short span of time. 

CSE department has a learned and supportive faculty and great seniors. The teams have always performed exceptionally well in the ACM-ICPC and have even made it to the world finals. A good number of students clear the  GSoC( Google Summer of Code). 

NJACK club organizes tutorial classes and workshops on Web development, App development, Android, etc. It also organizes competitions like Capture the Flag, NWoC-an open source coding event, and other competitions throughout the year.

Other interdisciplinary teams which you can join are ROBOCON, Supra BAJA, HPVC etc. 

CSE alums at IIT Patna have made successful startups and others are working in good positions at top MNCs. Overall, the coding culture over here is excellent.

The placements for the CSE department are quite impressive. For 2023 placements, the highest package stood at INR 82.05 LPA. The average package stood at INR 35.57 LPA and the median package stood at INR 32.85 LPA. 98.65% of students from the CSE branch were placed.

In the end, whether you choose IIT Jodhpur, IIT Mandi, IIT Patna, or any other institution, the choice should be based on your personal preference. However, I would suggest you choose IIT Patna CSE as I am quite satisfied with my choice.

Lives in Hyderabad

My brother recently graduated from IMT Hyderabad and thoroughly enjoyed hai college life there which gave him a plethora of memories. IMT Hyderabad MBA is a highly regarded program and is comparable to other B Schools. Here are a few reasons why he chose it over other reputed B Schools in the country.

  • The institute is located in a remote area away from the hustle and bustle of city life so you get to experience a peaceful college life
  • IMT Hyderabad faculty pool is one of the best in the country and engravings the concepts in you so well that makes learning an interesting job.
  • The accommodation facilities are also great and all basic amenities are provided to the students.
  • The institute focuses on holistic development of its students so academics and extracurriculars are given equal importance.
  • IMT Hyderabad offers the right platform to showcase your talents and skills to the recruiters but does not guarantee placements because it all depends on your performance in the interviews.

So bear in mind that no matter how good an institute is, your career and placements depend on your skills and performance. The institute just renders you a platform and does not guarantee the result.

Which are the best books for preparation for BITSAT?

MP
Mayank Patel Posted On : February 1st, 2021
B.E. Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani (2023)

JEE (M) syllabus covers BITSAT significantly. But if we compare the overall question pattern, then the BITSAT exam is quite tricky due to the number of questions you need to solve. 

To prepare for BITSAT you can follow the books suggested below. 

PCM: If you are preparing thoroughly for the JEE exams, then there is no need for extra preparation for PCM for BITSAT. 

English and Logical Reasoning:

  • For the preparation of the English and Logical reasoning section, books by Disha Expert can be followed and it is easily available on Flipkart and Amazon. 
  • Students from the ICSE board may not require extensive preparation for English. 
  • There are YouTube video lectures by GradeUp, which will be helpful for your preparation. 
  • Do not take this section lightly as it carries 75 marks in total. Also, a few weeks is enough for the preparation of the English and Logical Reasoning section. 

Clear Basics:

  • If you are solely focused on BITSAT then Arihant books are the better options for preparation. Disha Expert is also a good option. Make sure you have a thorough understanding of the concepts discussed in the NCERT books. 
  • You can’t do well with selective study for BITSAT. You need a good understanding of the basics to score well.

With preparation, you also need to practice well to score better marks. 

  • Quality Mock Test: Pick a good Mock test series with relevant questions.
  • Writing of 6-8 Mocks: It will help you to get the hang of time management for the examination. Allocate appropriate time for each section. 
  • Practice in Online Mode: Most of the students are not used to the computer-based online test. So, taking a few online mocks will help you boost your score.
  • Strategize: Before giving the mock test, you should formulate a strategy that works for you. It mainly includes the time allocation for each section, along with answering orders for the questions.
  • Get acquainted with the Format of the Questions: It is required for the English and Logical reasoning sections. Some of the most common formats for this section in the BITSAT exam are synonyms, antonyms, comprehension, family tree, etc.

Besides these above-mentioned suggestions, you should also solve the previous year’s questions. It will help you get acquainted with the exam format and question pattern.

What is the Paid Seat system at Banaras Hindu University (BHU)?

AS
Anika Sinha Posted On : August 16th, 2023
lives in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India

The paid seats system is a system for students who wanted to get admission to Banaras Hindu University but were unable to secure the qualifying ranks. In such a case, he/she can choose to pay the extra fee which is called the Paid seat system. These seats are available up to 5-10 seats in all courses and are reserved as paid seats. This is for those students who got a good rank but missed the campus seat with a very less difference in index. 

Procedure 

  • Fill in the paid seat form online or during the counseling process. Paid seats are available both for the main campus and affiliated colleges.
  • Your chances of getting the paid seats to work on the number of available seats and your index rank. For instance, if the cutoff is 280, and your marks are in the range of 270-279 you can secure your admission to the campus.
  • The portal will release the result and you can check it on the concerned day.

Fees structure

Paid seats cost extra fees in addition to the semester fees. For example, if your course fee is Rs. 2000 and your paid seat fee is Rs. 25000 so the total fees for the semester will be INR 27000 but the fees for next semester will be the same as a regular seat.

For more information, consider checking the notice board regarding the fee structure for further reference

Why is IIT Kharagpur Electrical Engineering department so deadly? How do they differ from others' IIT Electrical Department?

AC
Anumita Chatterjee Posted On : March 22nd, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur (IITK)

My brother had offers from IITs to choose any branch except CSE and chose Electrical Engineering in IIT KGP. To date, he does not regret his decision. There are ups and downs in every Institute; it just takes time to adapt yourself to such situations.

It is true that some professors overdo it and push you to the extreme, but if you look at this in a positive manner, it’s their pushing that eventually helps you succeed. There are many seniors who might make fun of your tiny efforts in the labs but trust me, today when they will look back, they will surely be regretting the time they wasted watching movies or series.

My brother told me that Electrical Engineering gave him so many friends and experiences that make him yearn for college life today. The labs are old-fashioned and lack much activity in contrast to a SigNet lab/ Power Systems lab.

  • Curriculum: The primary aim of the course curriculum offered in Electrical Engineering at IIT KGP is to impart to students tools and skills that will make it possible for them to excel in departments such as Electronics, Communication, Computers, Aerospace, and Energy.
  • Job prospects: An important point to note is that Electrical Engineering does not prepare you for a job but for higher education in the respective areas. Many people from the department pursue M.S. in Aerospace and Material Sciences. 
  • Faculty: While many may not agree, the faculty is excellent except for a few. The cream faculty include Prof. D Das, Prof TKB, Prof S Patra, and Prof S Chattopadhyay among others. Interacting with them might change your opinion regarding the IIT KGP faculty.
  • Research: The research is obviously not at par with that conducted in CS or EC, but it surely does justice to the department itself.

I think it’s high time people clear misconceptions about Electrical Engineering and develop a positive opinion about it. We should stop running after jobs and companies and in turn let companies seek us.
