It is always good to seek inspiration and motivation from achievers around you. People like Shubham Ajmera aren’t from another planet, they are just like other common folks. What makes them outshine others is their discipline and hard work.

Shubham has a good grasp in coding and problem solving, both of which are absolute essentials for his job profile. He used to attend his lectures religiously, and spent equal time in self study. He read a lot, and made good use of the college library and other resources. He held discussions with the professors, and at the same time, shared his insights with his juniors. Other than learning, he enjoys playing chess, numbers and mind games.

Though it is good to seek inspiration from Shubham, make sure to not copy him entirely. Things might work a bit differently for you. Pick up the good bits from such stories, and try to be unique in your own ways.

IISc Bangalore does not grant admission solely to highly intelligent people. Rather, IISc Bangalore makes people highly intelligent. I say this out of my personal experience. 

When I entered IISc Bangalore, I knew I was not highly intelligent. I was, however, deeply inclined toward learning and research.

My interview for IISc Bangalore ran for around two hours. The interview began with-

“Plot y=k exp(cx) for different values of k and c (positive, negative, and combination)”, and it ended in my M.Tech thesis. I tried to derive all the values and answer all the questions. Whenever I got stuck, the faculty members helped me conclude.

At IISc Bangalore, you will become more and more inclined towards learning. You will understand yourself and your goals. Then, how people label you won’t be of any importance to you.

It would be an excellent choice. It became an independent morning college in 2013, and its growth has been phenomenal since then. Ramanujan College has it all: amazing campus life and a fantastic learning environment. NAAC has awarded it a Grade A++ and a GPA of 3.71. According to the National Institute Ranking Framework (NIRF) 2021, it is also ranked 53rd in the college category, with an overall score of 54.68. 

Here are some distinguishing characteristics that set Ramanujan apart from the crowd:

1. Excellent Location: The college is in a prime location in Kalkaji, close to Epicuria, McD, Pizza Hut, Dominoes, and other restaurants. You will never run out of places to party.

2. Societies: This section is the college's true treasure. JAZBA, NSS, DNA, Shivranjani, Tark, TATVA, and other societies have always made the college proud.

3. Experienced Faculty: Friendly and cooperative. 

4. Infrastructure: The building's infrastructure distinguishes it from all other DU colleges. The college has the best infrastructure in DU, with all modern amenities. 

5. Crowd: It's almost a nurturing environment, with seniors eager to assist and juniors willing to collaborate. The college environment is always pumped up with some event, campaign, rally, or other activity that inspires students. 

Go ahead and enroll in Ramanujan College if you're interested in that now. You will never be regretful of your choice. You'll be presented with numerous opportunities here; all you have to do is seize them wisely. Ramanujan, as the name implies, has an excellent academic record, but the authorities are extremely strict. You must have a certain percentage of attendance in order to take the semester exam.

Yes, one of my cousins decided to go for IIIT Hyderabad although he had the option of an IIT. The reason he made this decision was because he was certain of a career in CSE and wasn’t getting CSE in the top IITs. He was well aware that the IIIT Hyderabad CSE course is one of the best and toughest in India. 

Today his father is proud of his bold decision. He claims the college ration the students in stress management through strict attendance even in games or yoga. The students are always busy with some or the other assignment. 

However, the infrastructural facilities are great and the accommodation is quite comfortable. There are laundry services, good eateries, sports facilities, and a very friendly faculty pool. 

The best part is the crowd quality as IIIT Hyderabad has no reservation policy. Initially, the compulsory attendance rule may seem a bit rigid but you will realize it does make your life disciplined. 

All software giants are aware of the quality of students here and flock in groups to recruit the best minds. The institute has a record of 100% CS placements as it has the best CS course in the entire country with enough focus on research.

So, don’t hesitate from giving preference to IIITs instead of IITs just for the tag. 

Before applying for a revaluation at JNTU Hyderabad, consider the following points

• Don't apply for revaluation if it’s just a matter of 1-2 marks.
• Don’t apply for revaluation if the supplementary exams for the same subject are to be held in less than 2 1/2 months. This is because during this time you will be notified of your supplementary exam fee and exam dates.
• Go for revaluation if the only chance to re-write the evaluation is the next semester is the only chance to rewrite the failed subject you can go for revaluation
• Apply for revaluation if there is more than 6 months gap for the supplementary exam. 

Hope this helped you!
