iMTech is an integrated course offered at IIIT Bangalore which includes a 5-year BTech+ MTech program. It is not possible to compare a 4-year BTech course with a 5-year Integrated MTech course.

• If you want to pursue MTech after BTech, iMTech at IIIT Bangalore is a great option as you will save a whole year. However, if you don’t want to pursue BTech, you should opt for IIIT Allahabad.
• The course curriculum and faculty at IIIT B are excellent. On the other hand, at IIITA students are quite frustrated with their faculty.

Based on the above facts and the conversation I had with some of my friends and colleagues who are pass outs from IIITB and IIITA, I would advise you to choose IIIT Bangalore with closed eyes.

CGC Landran is one of the most reputed colleges in north India. The college has been awarded by many organizations. The college is renowned because of its pretty good placement stats. The table given below contains the recent placement stats of CGC Landran. 

Talking particularly about the IT Branch, CGC Landran brings more than 200 companies for IT and CSE students. So, there is a huge opportunity for the students to grab placement offers and it completely depends on their performance of the placement procedure. The teachers of CGC Landran help the students a lot to get them prepared for the final placements. There are special pre-placement programs that help the students to brush up their skills and become placement-ready. 

Students need to make sure, to sit in the placement, they must have 75+ attendance, good academics and they fulfill the companies criteria. Lately, the placement percentage of IT branches at CGC Landran was only 30%. This happened because of the ignorance of the students due to which many of them were on the debarred list and many of them were not interested in the placements. Hopefully, this information is much of your help. Thanks!

Yes, with your rank there’s a probability that you will get into IT at IET DAVV. However, you may need to wait for college-level counselling. The reason is that many seats remain vacant till the CLC. So, there is a high probability of getting admission.

The required cut-off rank for IT in recent years at IET DAVV is as follows.

To avoid any kind of problems, check the availability of seats regularly as sometimes these seats do get occupied.

One of my friends got into the Acharya Institute of Technology for the Information Science Engineering course through the management quota. Interestingly, I was also looking up some decent colleges for Engineering in Karnataka for my sister, so I might be able to help you with your question.

I would further be mentioning certain situations or circumstances that you might face ahead. These can be:

• If, via KCET, you do manage to grab a college that does not match the rank that Acharya Institute of Technology belongs to, or is 2 or 3 ranks below of the institute, do not go for it as it would not be worth it.
• This is because there would not be any difference in the institutes that are after the ones mentioned in the top -10 to 15 ones. If you have potential, your performance would establish that.
• If you feel that ISE and CSE are genuinely your thing, go for it. If not, B.Sc. would be a better choice.
• If the total sum of 10 lakh rupees does not seem a big deal to your family or you. You can go for it.

Under circumstances similar or closer to these, you can think about pursuing it or securing otherwise. The choice is entirely yours.

Firstly, you should know that there is no difference in the facilities and reputation of the colleges, Although BITS ranks better as an engineering school. BITS Pilani ranks #30 on NIRF's Engineering rank list and IIIT Allahabad ranks #103 on the same. But you should focus on your monetary capacity in consonance with your future plans before applying. 

My cousin studied at IIIT A and the following points are based on his experience:

• IIIT A is an excellent place to study coding. The classes are good although the syllabus has to be maneuvered because it's tough. You can manage it through attention in the classroom.
• Attendance is an important part of the academic process here because IIIT A has a 75% mandatory attendance rule.
• Without a doubt, BITS has a higher fee range as compared to IIIT A, about 7 LPA for a 4-year program.

Here's a table comparing both institutes:

Lastly, if you love the mechanical stream and are truly motivated to study Maths and Physics then you must go for it. Mechanical is a vast field as well because you'd learn everything related to mechanical processes and even production scheduling. So clearly check your interests and goals before deciding.
