Did anyone convert IIM Ahmedabad and not join?

ST
Shivesh Tolani Posted On : November 23rd, 2022
MBA from IIM

IIM Ahmedabad is definitely one of the best institutes for studies. But it’s not the only one with excellent opportunities. Many other colleges offer better opportunities and a wide range of career options than IIM Ahmedabad.

Many people get selected in IIM Ahmedabad but do not join it. This is because their career goals do not restrict them to IIM Ahmedabad only. One such example is Sudhakar Gupta from NSIT who scored a 100 percentile in 2014. He got selected in all the IIMs but instead chose to pursue a Masters Degree from Cornell University.

At the IIMs, while the career opportunities are excellent, they are more or less streamlined and restrictive in the initial period. So people with broad prospects tend to suffer here. 

It depends on your long term career goals and your own conveniences at the end.

Is Anna University's counselling different for CBSE and matriculating students?

GV
Gomathi Venkat Posted On : December 1st, 2022
B.Tech. in Industrial Biotechnology ,Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India (Graduated 2008)

No, the counselling procedure is the same for both CBSE and matriculating students. You will be counseled in the batches as per your cut off. But the cutoff calculation procedure is different for CBSE and matriculating students.

For State Board students Cut off= (math/2) + (phy/4)+(chem/4)

For CBSE students Cut off= (math) +(phy/2)+(chem/2)

Apart from this CBSE students get normalisation as it’s difficult to get such high cut offs. Under this, usually 5 marks are added to your cutoff.

Do IIIT Hyderabad students (BTech, DD, MTech, MS and PhD) regret not being one of the IITs?

DS
Divya Saraf Posted On : July 31st, 2023
Lives in Hyderabad

No, I don’t think so. To be honest, my friend who is an IIIT Hyderabad student is much happier and more satisfied than his friends at IITs. He claims that he is in a better position compared to many of his CS and Non-CS counterparts at the IITs. IIIT Hyderabad certainly renders better opportunities in terms of research paper output, coding competitions performances, placements,  and Internships. So he is actually grateful for giving up his seats in IITs for a seat in IIIT. In fact, some of his friends had to go to non-CS branches in top IITs just because their ranks were not good enough for IIIT Hyderabad CS.

I hope this made it clear that people joining IIIT Hyderabad have no regret looking at their IIT counterparts whatsoever. If anything, they are grateful for the rare opportunity.

What is the total expenditure for a BTech course in Manipal Institute of Technology, Karnataka?

SV
Shyam Verma Posted On : September 8th, 2023
Computer Science, and Engineering, MIT Manipal

Here is a rough estimate of the total expenditure for a BTech course at MIT Karnataka.

  • Total Tuition Fees ( BTech): INR 18.62 Lakhs 
  • Hostel + Mess fees: Around 4–5 Lacs depending on the hostel you choose
  • Travel expense: On average you will be spending 750-1000 per month. So the cost of a 9-month stay for 4 years will be 1000*36= INR 36000
  • Travel expense from home to college: This varies from person to person because if you live far away, you will have to travel by airplane. Assuming, you will be taking 4 trips a year, the cost will be around 1 Lakh.
  • Misclieous Expenses: Around INR 5000 per month. So 5000 x 9 x 4 = 180000 INR.

The above estimate does take into account the money you spend partying or going on trips. Also, it's important to note that the above estimate is purely based on my speculations and may vary from person to person.

How good is NIT Patna? Is it comparable with better NITs and good private institutes like Thapar?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : August 31st, 2023
lives in New Delhi

NIT Patna has carried this ‘NIT’ tag since 2004. Here are some advantages of joining NITP-

  1. The crowd at NIT Patna, like any other NIT, is really good and consists of some of the best brains in the country.
  2. NIT Patna has a student exchange program with a Korean University.
  3. The environment over there is quite nurturing.
  4. It has a locational advantage over most other NITs. You can access the best CAT/GATE/IES coaching centers easily from there.
  5. The placements are improving each year. 
  6. Some companies that visit the campus for placements include- OracleFSS, Oracle Cloud Computing, MuSigma, Polaris, Verity Knowledge solutions, Vedanta(Alu), Verizon, Tata Motors, Maruti Suzuki, Hero MotoCorp, Jindal Steels, L&T, Havels, SAP Labs, Snapdeal, Amazon, UnitedHealth Group, First American Pvt. Ltd. , BPCL, Housing.com, Samsung R&D, Zomato, Oxigen, Factset, Bharat Aluminium, Samsung, ABB, Siemens and Reliance.

But I would like to warn you that the campus life isn’t really great at NIT Patna. However, the new Bihta campus of NIT Patna is expected to come into existence soon. It will be spread across 125 acres of land.

I would say that NIT Patna is doing quite well and it shouldn’t be compared to other NITs or Thapar. If you have the will to build a bright future for yourself, this institute will definitely help you achieve your dream.

Can a student be promoted next year in DU SOL even after failing in all subjects?

SC
Shweta Chatterjee Posted On : April 28th, 2026

DU SOL (School of Open Learning) promotion rules when failing all subjects:

DU SOL is open learning — it operates differently from regular colleges:

  • SOL does NOT have strict year detention rules like regular universities. you can typically re-enroll in the next academic year
  • if you fail all subjects in Year 1, you are NOT automatically promoted to Year 2 with those failures. you would need to reappear in failed subjects
  • SOL allows students to carry backlog subjects and re-appear in subsequent examination cycles (June and December)
  • you can re-register for failed subjects and attempt them while simultaneously attending Year 2 if SOL allows concurrent study — check with SOL directly as this depends on the program

honestly: the best approach is to contact your SOL regional/study center and ask specifically about your situation. SOL policies can vary by program and have been updated multiple times. visit sol.du.ac.in or your nearest SOL study center for definitive guidance on re-enrollment and subject clearing options.

Is there any possibility to clear engineering arrears after the 8 years time in Anna University?

HS
Hariraj Sampath Posted On : December 1st, 2022
Studied at Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India

No, the maximum duration to complete your degree in Anna University is 7 years. This includes 4 years in college and 3 additional years for those who are unable to complete their degree within 4 years. But after 7 years you cannot complete your degree.

Before 2017, the students who would fail even after 7 years would get a grace period of 1 year. But this practice has been abolished according to the new regulations.

The decision has made it impossible for anyone who had enrolled before 2011 to clear engineering arrears again.
