What is your review of DAV College Chandigarh?

AM
Akhil Mishra Posted On : April 21st, 2022
B.Sc medical from DAV College, Chandigarh (2021)

DAV College Chandigarh has a huge campus. It includes a playground and 3-4 little gardens. The college is situated at the center of the city and everything is nearby. You can get all the basic amenities on campus as well. There are two canteens, two Nescafes, a juice center, a stationery shop, a print shop, a salon, and laundry.  

The faculties are well-experienced. Some of the faculty members are quite friendly and cooperative. The college has a three-story library. It has a good collection of books. 

DAV College has many clubs and societies like Literary society, Economic Society, NSS, etc. The college organizes events like Karvaan, and Star nights annually.  

Election times are the worst. There are many fights and unnecessary chaos on campus. The college isn’t strict regarding its attendance rule and you can get away with not attending classes. Faculties sometimes don’t attend the classes and as a result, the students suffer. These are some of the disadvantages that you may have to face on campus.

What is your review of Osmania Medical College?

DS
Divya Saraf Posted On : October 5th, 2023
Lives in Hyderabad

Here are a few pros and cons of the Osmania Medical College that will give you a detailed review of the college

Pros

  • The college has produced highly successful doctors who are currently working in top positions in reputed hospitals like the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio and AIIMS New Delhi.
  • Osmania has around 10 attached hospitals. So, the patient flow is huge and diverse. There is a hospital for every subject you study in the Final year. 
  • OSMECON and College Fest are the 2 major events of this college that help students explore their interests apart from medicine. 
  • Osmania has some very amazing professors. One such Physiology professor established the Electrophysiology lab, the first such lab in the entire state. 
  • Internships in Osmania General Hospital are a very rare experience because if you can take care of patients in the most resource-scarce hospitals such as Osmania, you can help patients anywhere on the globe.

Cons

  • Osmania lacks funding to a great extent so is behind research work in comparison to other medical colleges.
  • The old building of Osmania General Hospital is in ruins.
  • No national and international conferences, seminars, or meetings are held to improve its global image.
  • The hostel facilities are pathetic and the mess food is not edible.
  • The campus area has been reduced due to Metro rail expansion.

Hope this helps you!

What is your review of Sikkim Manipal University?

KS
Krishna Srivastav Posted On : September 29th, 2021
B.Tech in CSE from Sikkim Manipal University (2019)

I have a few friends from Sikkim Manipal University and according to them, it is not a great place for innovative ideas and opportunities. It is a good option if you just want a degree. Here are some of the perks of joining the institute. 

  • There are over 15 clubs at SMIT. The club culture is quite good at the institute. If you want you can start your own club too. 
  • It has a great geographic landscape. There are awesome places that you can visit.
  • It helps in the all-round development of students. 

Overall SMIT is not a bad option for distance learning.

How tough is MA in economics IGNOU?

JG
Jyothsna Grover Posted On : October 20th, 2022
M.A. in Economics, Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU)

It is advised to look for a regular university for a Master in Economics, such as DSE or JNU.

If you don't have any other options, take admission here. There is nothing difficult for economics students to achieve good grades in MA Economics.

The exams are mostly graduation-based, but you must be certain that you understand everything you were taught during your graduation. You must not overlook any important terms, theories, concepts, or anything else.

If you are taking the MA economics exam for the first time at IGNOU, read everything you learned in graduation as well as the materials provided by IGNOU.

Studied at Indian Institute of Management, Udaipur (2019)

Every IIM boasts of top-notch infrastructure, talented peers in the batch, industry connection, pedagogy, etc. However, there are various aspects that set apart IIM Udaipur from other IIMs. Some of these are

  • Customized programmes like Rural Immersion, Global Immersion
  • The highly esteemed faculty which help in the holistic development of students.
  • Students are made to organize and run various clubs/committees and summits inculcating leadership skills in them.
  • Live projects and entrepreneurial initiatives made to the classroom learnings.
  • IIM Udaipur administration including the Director, transparency, accountability, and approachability makes it unique among other IIMs

Despite having multiple converts, my sister chose IIM Udaipur and has no regrets to date.

What is your review of Vardhaman College of Engineering?

CH
Chitra Hemanth Posted On : July 27th, 2021
Studies CSE at Vardhaman College of Engineering 2022
Vardhaman College of Engineering has received a very good rating over time. It comes with good infrastructure and has earned itself a reputation in Hyderabad.

Following are the factors that you should consider before opting for the college:

  1. Branch Ratings: It can be given a good rating for both CSE and IT branches. However, other branches like ECE and EEE have earned an average rating, while Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Civil Engineering have ratings below average.
  2. Amenities (Labs, Hostels, etc.): The computer labs are equipped with every crucial facility. In addition, the campus buildings, hostels, and other amenities are relatively well built. The hostel food is somewhat acceptable as well.
  3. Library: It is well built but the major downside is that it lacks certain important books. Surprisingly, you can put forward requests for specific books as and when required, but they rarely arrive.
  4. Faculty: The faculty of Vardhaman College of Engineering can be mostly rated as “average.” The reason is quite simple. A handful of the faculty members are completely or partially not extremely concerned about the issues students usually face. It can be any professor, let alone the HOD.
  5. Placement: The college often receives offers from various companies, especially companies that are IT-related. It is a major drawback. Students from ECE, EEE, or the Mechanical Engineering department often only get offered job profiles that are commonly IT-related. It can only be good if you are interested in taking up your career in the IT sector.
  6. Sports and Extracurricular Activities: It has a well-equipped cricket ground with a turf pitch. Besides that, it comes with a good football field, basketball court, volleyball court, and certain indoor game amenities.

The disadvantage is that students are usually not allowed to use any of these until it is during the cultural fests. Simultaneously, any extracurricular or co-curricular activity is surprisingly not very encouraging. It's the reason why you cannot take up research projects until extremely necessary.

What is your review of NIT, Durgapur?

SD
Shivani Das Posted On : September 6th, 2023
B.Tech from National Institute of Technology Durgapur (2019)

Here is a detailed review shared by my brother who completed his graduation from NIT Durgapur

  • Infrastructure: Honestly, the infrastructure isn’t all that great but will provide all the basic amenities necessary for a good academic environment.
  • Faculty: Most students have to resort to self-study because the professors are not very passionate about teaching. However, if you do good projects under a professor, you may be able to pursue a master's in a foreign university.
  • Placements: NIT Durgapur has recorded excellent placements. This year the highest CTC offered was INR 70 LPA while the average salary offered was INR 13.64 LPA. The top recruiters included TCS Ninja, PwC, ICICI Bank, Microsoft, and many others. More than 100 recruiters participated in the placement drive and 633 students were placed. 
  • Opportunities: The NIT tag will open a number of opportunities for you and the alumni network is also quite extensive. You can also avail opportunities like workshops and clubs.
  • Campus life: The campus life is very active with many fun-filled events like the freshers' farewell party and celebration of regional festivals. Additionally, a number of cultural and technical fests are also held.
  • Administration : The administration is very slow and is not cooperative. You might face some issues.
  • Location : NIT Durgapur faces no major connectivity issues. The railway station is 30 mins or 14 km away while the nearest airport is at Andal, which isn't well connected, so Kolkata Airport will be a better option. You can find the Auto rickshaw stand just at the main gate.

Overall, NIT Durgapur is a great place if you are unable to make it to IITs.

What are your thoughts on IIT Madras offering a bachelor's degree/diploma online?

SH
Shraya Hazra Posted On : July 20th, 2021
B.Tech Mechanical Engineering & Mathematics, Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati (2020)

It is a full-time degree or diploma and so it will have more value than online. But if we compare IIT Madras’ online degree or diploma with any other college’s then it is better.

The duration of the course is 3 years. The mode of training is online, the lectures are mostly recorded and partly live sessions.

Whether the course will be good or not that depends on what subject you are planning to pursue. If you opt for a subject related to technology, then it is not a good option. This is because technology cannot be learned through books or audiovisual. It requires you to be present in the field to gain experience and knowledge.

What is your review about NIT Jamshedpur?

AP
Arjita Pathak Posted On : May 10th, 2021
B.Tech (Hons.) from National Institute of Technology, Jamshedpur (2018)

My friend recently graduated from NIT Jamshedpur. Here is her review. 

Location: The campus is located in Adityapur, surrounded by industries. It is a bit away from Tatanagar Railway Station. Since Jamshedpur doesn’t have an airport the best way to reach the campus is from Ranchi via NH-33. 

Infrastructure-wise: Both the hostels and the computer centers are revamped. The main buildings of the campus are still under further development but are expected to be in maintenance soon. However, the mega hostels, known as J & K, are an enhanced sight of the campus. 

Academics

  • The quality of professors or the methodology of their teaching is quite not up to the mark. Few professors of the institute somewhat still follow the old pedagogy and are sometimes not cooperative. On contrary, the newly appointed Ad-hoc faculties are supportive and are willing to guide students. 
  • Students of the institute perform well in competitive examinations. Many made it to IITs, IIMs, or various international institutes as well.
  • The Central Workshop and laboratories, substantially Fluid, Thermodynamics, and Metallurgical are not quite well maintained. 

Placement Reports:

A few major recruiting companies are (in respective branches) as follows. 

  • CSE: Amazon, Microsoft, Adobe, Oracle
  • ECE: Amazon, Oracle Finance, Wipro, Mahindra Comviva
  • EEE: Tata Steel, JSW Steel, L&T, BPCL
  • ME: Tata Motors, L&T, Tata Steel, BPCL
  • MME: JSW Steel, Vedanta, Tata Metaliks, Tata Steel
  • CE: Simplex, L&T
  • PIE: Tata Hitachi, JK Tyre, JK Paper, Tata Motors

FIITJEE, Rao Academy, Career Point, etc, are examples of coaching institutes that recruited as well. The highest package received was 30 LPA while the average salary was 12 LPA

Extracurricular Activities: 

The TechnoManagement fest, Ojass, and Cultural fest, Culfest are the major events of the institute. There are several automobile teams as well, like Team Phoenix, the aircraft team; Team Rays, the hybrid car team and Team Daksh, Off road car team.

This is the in-depth scenario of the institute.
