SG
Sreelekha Ghosh, Posted On : October 25th, 2021
B.E Computer Science, BITS Pilani, Hyderabad Campus (2020)

Choose BITS Hyderabad over NIT Raipur or NIT Puducherry. Here are some of the reasons for choosing this institute:

  • They offer a beautiful campus with an enthusiastic student crowd.
  • BITS Hyderabad has updated modern machinery and lab facilities.
  • The placements definitely differ between the BITS and NITs.
  • NIT Raipur is very old-fashioned in its approach towards studying and learning.
  • Their faculties teaching method is old and prefers their students mugging up notes rather than learning and understanding something.
  • BITS, unlike NIT Raipur, their teaching method is industry-oriented.

You might think that going for a dual degree is better as IT companies only prefer CSE graduates. But nowadays this notion has changed as with big data and analytics creating a boom, more and more such companies visiting campuses and hiring people from all branches.

Therefore it is suggested that you go for BITS Hyderabad, where you will grow and learn in a much more competitive environment. Your vision will be broadened.

Different colleges set different marks for form submission. If you are willing to take admission for an honors program at WBSU, make sure you have the minimum marks required, i.e., 45 out of 100.

If you want to pursue Zoology Honours, you have to have 45 in Biology in your class 12th examination. But if your Biology marks are less than 45, then you will have to take special permission from the Vice-Chancellor or Registrar of WBSU.

Which college or university is better for a bachelor's in psychology: DU or MSU Baroda?

JT
Jayant Thakur Posted On : December 31st, 2022
B.A in Economics & Political Science, University of Delhi (Graduated 2019)

What truly distinguishes universities such as DU, JNU, and BHU is their brand value and large alumni base. It's as if they've created a brand, particularly for social science courses. A degree from it is valuable in and of itself. Second, while faculty may be similar in some ways, exposure at DU is unparalleled. You will learn a lot.

MSU Baroda is a great university with a vibrant past and a strong alumni base, but in the current scenario, good colleges of DU stand out. But, yes, you must work hard and take the initiative to learn and gain knowledge wherever you study because, in the end, it is the knowledge you acquire that counts.

How good is the Geology department at Hansraj College for UG?

RV
Ria Vij, Posted On : October 30th, 2021
studied Economics at Hansraj College, University of Delhi (2018)

One of my friends studied at Hansraj College. According to him, the Geology department is not up to the mark. Here’s mentioning some things that proved to be a disappointment for the students.

  • The placements are underwhelming. No reputed organization ever recruits students from this department.
  • The classes are irregular and no discipline or decorum is maintained.
  • Since it has the curriculum standards of DU, students are put under a lot of pressure to mug up elaborate theories.
  • The practical classes are uninteresting, basically because it is not much focussed on.
  • Classes of B.Sc. Geology is held outside the main campus where students tend to feel alienated from others.
  • They have very little exposure hence less placements.
  • Lastly, there is no geology society, where you can learn specific things about the course, get in-hand training, etc. 

Therefore, if you want to do B.Sc. then opt for some other subject or you can do a BA or B.Com. from DU as they will provide better scope than Geology.
