Is it advisable to go for a new IIM like IIM Jammu and do MBA? It is being mentored by IIM Lucknow so will placement be also mentored by them?
IIM Lucknow mentors IIM Jammu with respect to faculty, curriculum and pedagogy. IIM Jammu and IIM Lucknow have almost the same teachers, barring a few. Moreover, the pedagogy and curriculum of both these colleges is the same. But IIM Lucknow does not extend its mentorship in case of IIM Jammu placements.
The crowd of new IIMs is really good. The students from IIM Jammu are tough opponents for IIM A B C students in various competitions. IIM Jammu has a student exchange program that offers meritorious students to complete a trimester at a European university. The placements of IIM Jammu are equal to other baby IIMs.
IIM Jammu carries the prestigious ‘IIM’ tag which has a high value in the industry. I would recommend you join IIM Jammu for your MBA.

Should I join IIT Delhi chemical or top NIT CSE?
Yes, irrespective of the branch, choosing IIT Delhi will always prove to be beneficial for you. IIT Delhi has ties with many big firms that visit the campus for placements and offer great packages irrespective of your branch. One needs to be proficient in DSA and other computer science core subjects such as OOPS, OS, DBMS, and Computer Networks. A good grasp of these will fetch you a high-paying job no matter which branch you belong to in IIT Delhi.
Although most companies that visit IIT Delhi also visit NIT, your IIT tag will always fetch you extra benefits and no one can deny that. For instance, the same role offered to an IITiand will have more salary than that offered to a non-IITian.You can easily switch roles and fields given the brand name of the institute you are associated with. IITians even have more opportunities for higher studies in Foreign countries than non-IITians.
IITians especially from Mumbai or Delhi are always given preference over non-IITians hence it is advisable to go for IIT Delhi in any branch.

Which one is the best AIIMS or CMC Vellore for an MBBS?
One of my friends was in a similar dilemma. He considered the following points while making his decision
- Most AIIMS undergraduates settle in the US or pursue higher education in top colleges in India while CMC graduates prefer CMC for their higher education only.
- Students of CMC are required to do bonds in mission hospitals so their higher education gets delayed. But this instills in them a strong sense of community-oriented healthcare. They tend to work in remote places of India without any personal glory. An AIIMS student can hardly be seen doing community service.
- AIIMS graduates publish more when compared to CMC graduates.
- CMC students get better hands-on experience and hence fare better in terms of clinical and Surgical skills. Right from the second year, they start assisting postgraduates in clinical work.
- If you are a non-Christian, it will be difficult to go through the entire training without a mission hospital
Ultimately, make a choice based on your demographics, preferences, and goals in life.
Should I do an online BSc data science and programming course from IIT Madras? Will I get placement after it?
My friend has enrolled himself for B.Sc. Data Science and Programming course from IIT M. He carefully accessed the course curriculum.
According to him, the course requires at least 4 to 6 hours of study each day.
One can not simply study it on the weekends and cope up. My friend has a tight working schedule, and therefore, he is considering leaving this course.
But if you can devote time for the course each day, then this course will definitely benefit you. The placement statistics are not very clear but the curriculum is rigorous and so you will learn new skills that will come handy during job search.
Is CSE at IIT Bombay overrated?
IIT Bombay’s rankings are a testament to its credibility and worth in the technology industry. Most JEE toppers consider IIT Bombay as their first preference. This is because IIT Bombay excels in almost all X aspects of B8 placements, faculty, or exposure.
During the placement season companies from a wide range of sectors visit the campus. However, there are some dark facts behind these placement drives. I came to know of these realities through true friends and pass outs of the institute.
One cannot deny the fact that IIT Bombay has witnessed an increase in demand due to the strong influence it has. It is sad to say but many coaching centers run by alumni of IIT Bombay promote the institute. When engineering aspirants contact the alumni for counseling and advice, most of them portray IIT Bombay as the best choice leading to a more influential decision.
What I ultimately mean is that IIT Bombay is definitely the best choice when it comes to engineering. But the fact that no other college is as good as IIT Bombay is also not true.
Has anyone regretted after joining XLRI HRM?
I talked to a cousin who was planning his higher studies and he told me that when he started planning his career, he prioritized 2 things. He will pursue what he is good at and will do what he actually likes doing.
After considerable anticipation, he decided to pursue HR and shared his experience so far. To date, he is glad he decided to take up HR and has no regrets whatsoever. In fact, he had temporarily joined a software job which confirmed his lack of interest in that field.
He chose HR over BM despite knowing job opportunities for BM are better than HR. What kept him going was his initial decision of sticking to what he loved.
As his journey commenced, he started creating memories in Jamshedpur, making new friends, having wonderful experiences, and taking part in both co-curricular and extra-curricular stuff. After some nervousness in placements, today he has successfully completed a year in an HR role.
HRM is always going to be more niche than most, and that’s exactly why XLRI, a premier b-school is the best option for HR. The plethora of competitions and scope provided is the envy of the B-school world.
He loved HR in general and XLRI specifically because it taught him that pursuing what you love will make you happy even if the monetary return is not huge.
Is Lucknow University good for B Tech?
Lucknow University is renowned to offer a bunch of different courses, within which B.Tech is a freshly inaugurated branch that started anew in the year 2017.
