SC
Sakshi Chauhan Posted On : May 16th, 2024
Lives in Bangalore

Every college has its own set of pros and cons. Both Christ University and XIME are well-known reputed institutions. It depends on the course that you aim to pursue to compare which is better. When it comes to campus life, Christ is the winner. The beautiful green campus with acres of active campus life of the students being involved in multiple extracurricular activities, seminars and workshops is what attracts the students. However, the fee structure of Christ is a bit higher as compared to XIME. Both colleges are known to provide good placement to their students and are visited by top recruiters. However, it again depends on your course of preference. Go through the websites of both colleges and talk to seniors who can guide you with some other queries which you may have.

How do I prepare for English and logical reasoning on the BITSAT??

RR
Radhika Roy Posted On : January 16th, 2021
Studied at Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani - Pilani Campus (2019)

The preparation of BITSAT includes so many areas, English and Logical reasoning being an important part of it. Like other students applying for BITSAT, my knowledge is also limited to my experience, gathered from others. Mostly our preparation depends on solving previous year’s question papers and watching tutorials. There are a number of books you can follow as well. Analyze your strong area and try solving the answers in a limited time. This will lessen your burden in the examination hall. 

  • BITSAT will test your English Grammar, Verbal Reasoning, Quiz solving ability, Synonyms & Antonyms, Sentence Formation, idioms & Phrases, etc. so you need to prepare yourself accordingly.
  • While solving the previous year’s question papers, analyze in which area you can score more without consuming less time. Prepare yourself accordingly. Doing a SWOT analysis of each paper will help you identify your strengths and weaknesses in each topic. 
  • For reference, you can go for books like English Proficiency and Logical Reasoning by Disha Publications and Logical Reasoning by author Edgar Thorpe and others. These books will definitely help you understand the basics and prepare you for all questions, related to the same.
  • You can also practice and read Latest Editions of Top English Newspapers like Times of India, The Hindu, etc. to prepare yourself for Verbal and Non Verbal Reasoning. In case your primary education was from an english medium school, then practicing it will be easier and not at all time consuming. 
  • Work on your speed of solving questions correctly. Solving at least 5-10 question papers in a limited time will definitely help you score better marks in the exam.
  • As far as Logical Reasoning is concerned, nobody can predict this. Practicing ony can help you crack this section successfully. Double your speed and try to solve 2 questions in place of one in a set period of time.

The above tips will definitely help you prepare for english & logical reasoning for BITSAT, but keep in mind that there are other sections as well. So divide your practice time accordingly and dedicate sufficient time to all other sections as well.

Aruna Kakkar Posted On : October 10th, 2022
B.Sc. (H) Chemistry from University of Delhi

When a 12th-grade student enrols in a prestigious Delhi university, he or she has many hopes for placement and compensation.

However, only 1% of students are placed in the top colleges. B.Sc. is solely academic in nature. You should never have unrealistic expectations of receiving gleaming packages after completing your B.Sc. To get a job in this field, you will need to further your education.

The main advantage of studying at DU is the exposure you will receive. It will aid in your personal development.

How is the hostel at NIT Durgapur?

OR
Omkar Rana Posted On : September 7th, 2023
Studied at National Institute of Technology Durgapur

During my B.Tech from NIT Durgapur, I stayed at Halls-9,3 and 5. I can tell you about the condition of these halls.

The infrastructure of these hostel buildings is in a poor and dilapidated state. They are located in one corner of the campus. The rooms are old, and these halls aren’t well maintained. The mess food isn’t good.

Despite all of this, you’ll find solace in your hostel rooms. You’ll form close bonds with your hostelmates. Once you move out of NIT Durgapur, you’ll miss these times. Over here, you’ll enjoy plenty of freedom with practically no responsibilities. 

For the most part, the condition of hostels isn’t good. Still, you’ll eventually adapt to this place. You’ll form close friendships and lifelong memories over here.

When and how to apply for a winter internship at the IIT IISC and IISER?

SR
Sanjukta Roy Posted On : October 21st, 2021
Studied at IISER-Kolkata

If you haven’t already worked with a research group or under a professor during your summertime, IISc would be a little difficult for you. 

There are a lot of professors and postdoctoral fellows who are enrolled in a subdiscipline at IISc. So any kind of internship will give you a little edge over others to be selected for winter internship. 

If you are a scholar at KVPY or INSPIRE or NIUS, you might have better chances but the statement of purpose matters as well. Usually, you will have to send a mail with your CV and the statement of purpose along with a list of courses that you have completed to any of the professors who are related to that sub-discipline. You must also remember to apply early in September and if it is feasible for you, you must decide on a topic, duration, accommodation before October.

IISER - For IISERs, it would be advisable to go for Mohali or Bhopal. The application process is quite similar. September end to October is considered to be the best time to decide on a date and duration.

IITs - a few of them conduct sponsored winter programs but there is no logic in going to an IIT to study theoretical mathematics. You can rather go to Kanpur and Powai and the application procedure for both of them is the same as above.

If you wish to pursue cryptology, cryptanalysis, economical models, number theory, ISI and CMI would be considered better when it comes to exposure and experience. For complex analysis, and astrostatistics, you can go to IMSc, ISI, IISc, and CMI. You can opt for mathematical biology at IISERs and IISc.
