One of my friends is from Maharaja Surajmal. According to him, there are many reviews, so he wanted to share his authentic experience. The points listed below are some advice you may find important -
Therefore, these are some of the on-ground facts of MSIT that will help students make their college life better on the campus.
You can definitely try and apply for it. IIIT Delhi is also feasible for you or you could also go for NSIT Delhi / DTU / IIIT Delhi. You might end up with ECE or IT at NSIT Delhi, Software or IT at DTU, ECE or CSE at IIIT Delhi.
If you are not a CSE/ IT student, getting a coding job will be hard but not very challenging. Only if you take programming seriously, you will be selected in Google or Facebook which is equally tough.
You could even have a try at Hackathons, learn, practice new programming languages, web development, and basics of graphic designing along with the complete back-end work. Try to make some interesting apps, contribute to open source and you will see budding opportunities ahead of your way. Try not to play with the college percentage/ GPA because they decide which companies you can sit for.
There are several sorts of dilemmas regarding the placement of dual degree B.Tech+ M.Tech students in IIIT Allahabad. Here is what I gathered from my friends at the institute.
Therefore, considering the factors stated above, it is clear that dual degree students do face problems in some companies’ recruitment drives. But, they do have a good amount of placement overall.
One of my seniors graduated from the IS branch of Acharya Institutes. He has seen a considerable number of students quit because they had complaints regarding the non-payment of their salaries. They looked for better opportunities in other colleges. He did not find anything better about the department apart from the HOD and a few other lecturers.
If you are looking for employment in companies that are service-based, you will most likely get placements. If you are looking for help and motivation from your peers or faculty, you will probably be disappointed. My senior and a lot of his peers got little to no help with the same, including research activities. My senior suggests that you should choose ISE at Acharya only when you do not much have many choices and/or if you have a low rank.
IIIT Allahabad has an awesome coding culture. You can note the difference when you interact with a lot of engineers from other colleges. In old engineering colleges for the first year, you would be doing foundry and welding. You might also end up learning English etc. but actual coding starts after 1st semester or in the second year. While at IIIT Allahabad coding starts from the very beginning of the course.

Also, there is a great culture of competitive programming in the institute. There are students in other premium engineering colleges who wouldn't have coded completely their engineering. This is unheard of in IIIT Allahabad.
The integrated degree program at IIITM Gwalior offers two formats; B.Tech + MBA and B.Tech + M.Tech. While most students might not go for the dual degree, it does offer an advantage over other degrees in the following terms:
BITSPilani also offers integrated dual degree courses, but the specialization is dependent on the overall performance of the students.
In the end, it completely depends on the student, if they wish to pursue an integrated degree at IIITM Gwalior or BITS Pilani. However, students need to do their ground research on the modalities and course structure of these courses that are offered.
LNCT is considered as one of the best private colleges in Middle India that is Madhya Pradesh. The college is known for offering useful and versatile activities. Here are some things I got to know from the reviews.

| Course Fee | 4.7 lakh |
| Highest CTC | 18-19 LPA |
| Average CTC | 6-7 LPA |
| Lowest CTC | 4 LPA |

It is your hard work that will get you through college life but it will be worthwhile. You should opt for the college without any further hesitation.
Since you know what you are looking for, it becomes quite easy to segregate categories for you to choose which place you want to go. Do all-around research and look at various categories like crowd, course curriculum as well as the faculty before making a decision. Here are some points that may help you out.
Faculty: One point where IIIT A might lag is the faculty. Being a top college, you might expect it to have some of the top-notch faculty in the country. However, it is more of a mix of government college faculty with some average teachers and others that are really well-versed in their subjects. IIIT D on the other hand has better faculty who have a rational approach to the subject of computer science. IIIT D definitely tops here.
Course Curriculum: You will find some of the best course curricula at IIIT A. You will be introduced to the subjects of computer science right from the very first semester. A major plus point is that there are no interdisciplinary subjects like ED that will be included.
Crowd: As far as crowds are concerned, both places have the same crowd. IIIT A might be slightly better as they do not hold any state-based preferences or quotas.
Coding Culture: The coding culture at IIIT A is one of the best in the country. This college is the pioneer college that represents our country in some of the most major competitive coding platforms. Just recently, 12 students were even selected for GSOC from IIIT A. IIIT D is still in its nascent days as far as coding is concerned.
Infrastructure: This is one point where both colleges are at par with each other. Both are good as far as basic amenities are concerned.
Lastly, you should know that IIIT A is a college with a national reputation. It will definitely give you the upper edge when you go for your masters. This is probably not the case with IIIT D. However, if you are looking for good faculty and a city atmosphere, go to IIIT D.
If you think that you can work under technical giants later in years of study, then you should go for VIT. However, if you want to pursue your field of interest, and choose a likewise job scenario, then undoubtedly, you should enroll in IIIT Guwahati.
There are various differences between both the institutes for B.Tech ECE. Let’s walk through most of them:
Approaches of VIT:
The following table shows the placement statistics of both institutions:

Approaches of IIITG:
VIT is a reputed institute that is known to get you a job in the placement. If you’re willing to enter the job sector soon, join VIT.
It won’t be good to compare the Dual Degree of one place to B. Tech of another. However, B. Tech (IT) from IIIT Allahabad is definitely better than B. Tech (CS) of all the NITs that have been mentioned.
Keep in mind that IIITs, NITs are next to IITs in terms of excellence in the Indian Scenario. But it doesn’t mean that NITs are ranked right next to IITs as the second ones. If you want a corporate job, you need to ruin a precious one year of your life for the dual degree.

A dual degree implies that you have made more effort than the normal degree students. You have gathered knowledge in additional subjects, which is better. This also means that your time has always been shared between projects. But companies tend to lean towards the ones who have done their degrees separately.
If you are willing to put in an effort, you should definitely go for dual degree courses with a strong commitment and determination. Towards the end, all that matters is, how much skill you have gained and how you put into use for the effective problem-solving at work that you are doing.
