Is it easy to get into NICMAR Pune?

AS
Aditya Sapra Posted On : October 7th, 2021
Studied Project Management, National Institute of Construction Management and Research, Pune (2014)

It is a bit easy to get into NICMAR but this doesn't mean that you will take the entrance exam very casually. I have seen various people who have tried more than three times to get enrolled in NICMAR Pune.

You have to be sincere with the preparation and work hard. Prepare from RS Aggarwal for the Aptitude section because it is more than enough. Don't spend much time on the Quant because it is going to be a lengthy process. Rather you can solve questions on topics you are already confident enough as it would be helpful.

For the interview process, dress up properly and be confident. Don't be nervous because the interviewers observe your body language.

Moreover, NICMAR offers sponsored seats with 5% seats reserved for the management quota. If you are unable to crack the entrance exam, you can get a seat through this quota. The only condition will to be pay 1.5 times more fee than a regular student.

Should I choose NIT Trichy for CSE or IIT Roorkee for metallurgy? Why?

AR
Anusha Rahaman Posted On : April 11th, 2023
Lived in Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee

My brother was in the CSE branch of NIT Trichy and based on his experience, here are a few pointers:

  • The professors are extremely learned and experienced and impart quality education
  • The relative grading system establishes peer pressure, and as a result, there is tough competition among the students 
  • IIT Roorkee is well known for its rich coding culture that is promoted by student-driven and institute funded clubs. These clubs give you additional knowledge on web designing, App development, and game development that might be useful later in
  • The CSE department is one of the most coveted branches, and being a part of one will inculcate a sense of privilege.
  • The hostel and campus life is decent with all necessary amenities.
  • A total of 5 fests are held throughout the year and are totally funded and organized by the institute. The institute is located in an area that helps you explore nearby tourist spots like Pondicherry and Ooty.

You won’t ever regret choosing NIT CSE.

Is IIT Indore really worth it?

SB
Shivam Behera Posted On : June 17th, 2023
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology, Indore (2020)

Well, IIT Indore might be worth it for some and not for others as this is a very subjective matter. However, Let’s break down the answer to important points and then you yourself can conclude if it's worth it or not.

  • Location: Give up on the idea of living in Indore city because IIT Indore is located on the outskirts of a village called Simrol.
  • Strictness: IIT Indore has illogical rules and regulations that affect the freedom of their college life. You will be fined for every big or small thing. 
  • Food: The mess charges are high almost INR 150/- per day. The cafeteria also serves good quality food. 
  • Placement: The placements of only the CSE and EE branches are decent and other branches still have to go a long way and attract better packages and companies.
  • Hostels: The hostel facilities are no doubt excellent here with single occupancy rooms and all modern facilities.

Overall, I don't think IIT Indore is worth the hype it has been receiving and most students flock there because of its great hostel facilities which is quite an illogical reason.

How is FMS Delhi better than the IIMs?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : May 30th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

This is known as the "Clash of the Titans." At one end, there is India's leading chain of top B-schools (there are 20 in total), and the opponent attempting to oppose them is the Faculty of Management Studies, New Delhi, which is renowned as the B-school with the highest ROI in India.

Round 1 Procedures for Selection Comparison

IIMs require a high CAT percentile (excellent meaning 99-100) as well as at least 80% in 10th and 12th grades. Your graduation grade should be exhilarating as well.

The subsequent rounds are also available once you have passed the CAT with the required percentile. WAT (Writing Ability Test) and PI (Personal Interview) are the two rounds. Your leadership experience is critical in the PI round.

Once you seek admission to FMS, it is no less brutal than IIMs. The basic qualifying condition in their selection process is also a CAT score with an excellent percentile. Though their academic qualification eligibility standards appear to be wide, they genuinely evaluate only those with outstanding academic records.

Candidates who are shortlisted based on their CAT scores and academic records will be required to go through additional rounds of GD, PI, and Extempore.

Both opponents receive the same score here.

Round 2 Comparison of Professors

IIMs: IIMs, particularly the top tier ones, have some very outstanding minds from around the world to teach management learning at its best. They are a diverse group of veteran and young academics that value interactive sessions.

FMS: It has no envy for the professors on board at IIMs because they also have brilliant academicians on their boards. Click the Faculty Directory to view their faculty member's individual profiles. Not all IIMs are represented by the 20 links. So don't consider sharing the FMS faculty page link to be a biased decision.

The scores stay unchanged, i.e. equal.

Round 3 Scenarios of Placement Comparison

IIMs: It's time to look at some statistics about the placement situation at IIMs in 2023. It will assist you in comprehending the scene.

  • An IIM A student received a hefty international package worth $140,599.
  • At IIM Indore Placement 2023, the highest domestic package of INR 1.14 Crore Per Annum was offered. It was the highest score achieved by any IIM.
  • The lowest package was INR 8 LPA at IIM Rohtak.

I assure you that the FMS placement scenario will not allow IIMs to seize the lead. Let us now look ahead to their 2019 placements.

  • At FMS Placements 2023, the top domestic package is INR 1.23 Crore Per Annum.
  • The average CTC of FMS, Delhi in 2023 is INR 34.1 LPA, which is higher than the previous year.
  • At FMS, Delhi, the lowest package recorded is INR 11 LPA.

This round gave FMS a tiny advantage over IIMs. However, it was not a compelling one, thus we shall proceed to Round 4 as a tie-breaker.

Round 4 Fee Schedule

  • IIM Ahmedabad- Rs. 30 lakh
  • IIM Bangalore- Rs. 24.5 lakh
  • IIM Calcutta- Rs. 31 lakh
  • IIM Lucknow- Rs. 19.23 lakh
  • IIM Kozhikode- Rs. 22.5 lakh
  • IIM Indore- Rs. 21 lakh
  • IIM Trichy- Rs. 19.5 lakh
  • IIM Amritsar- Rs. 16 lakh
  • IIM Rohtak- Rs. 18 lakh
  • IIM Bodhgaya- Rs. 16 lakh

FMS- 1.92 Lakh

Even if you are put at a top-tier organization, there is no need to take out a loan and bear the load. The whole MBA price at FMS is cheaper than the income of ten days that you will receive after completing your MBA here.

In this round, FMS defeated IIMs and became victorious. So, FMS Delhi is always a better option than IIMs.

How good is Amity University for a BBA?

AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : August 18th, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

My brother recently completed his BBA from Amity University and gave me an overview of the scenario. Here is a short review of the college

  • Campus and Location: Amity University has an amazing campus life thanks to its huge campus and location. It's located in close proximity to Delhi and Noida. The campus has great facilities making the academic experience better.
  • Academics: Here, students have to depend mostly on self-study as the faculty has no passion for teaching. 
  • Crowd: The crowd quality is great and you will be surrounded by an elite pool of students hailing from the NCR Region. The fests are organized at a huge level and students get to experience amazing campus life. 
  • Return on Investment: The institute offers a very low ROI. you will end up spending a lot of money with not very good placements. So, it's advisable to start preparing for an MBA right from the first year. Most companies coming for BBA students are BPO and KPO. 

So, Amity University is a great choice if you have no financial constraints and are looking for a vibrant college life.
