  • Coding Culture and Tech Jobs- Similar tech companies visit BITS Pilani and IIT BHU for placements. In terms of ACM ICPC and GSOC performance though, IIT BHU is ahead of BITS Pilani
  • Non-Tech Jobs- Similar companies visit the campus for placements. However, BITS Pilani has an edge over IIT BHU.
  • Core Jobs- Here IIT BHU gets the advantage of its IIT tag. Supply chain companies visit the IITs in a larger number.
  • Startup Culture- BITS Pilani students have created great startups over time. The richest Indian-American is an IIT-BHU alumnus, he founded four highly successful startups.
  • Higher education- The alumni of IIT BHU and BITS Pilani pursue their masters in top universities in the USA. US universities give opportunities to IITians, and BITS students get the chance because of a huge alumni base with successful alumni in the research field.
  • Location and campus- Varanasi is a tier 2, whereas, Pilani is a tier 3 city. In comparison to Delhi, Mumbai, and Bangalore, life in them is a lot different. Inside the campus, life at both is very similar.
  • Fees- The course fees at BITS Pilani are much higher because it is a private university.

Both institutions are great in every aspect. However, one has a slight advantage over the other in the different aspects as discussed above.

How are the girls hostels in NIT, Warangal?

SS
Shivani Singh Posted On : August 17th, 2023
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Warangal (2019)

One of my female friends was allotted Sarojini hostel and she shared her experience that was nothing short of a nightmare. The rooms were very small and congested. She had to share the tiny room with 3 other girls.The lighting was poor making it difficult to study. 

The hostel was located remotely away from all other hostels. Girls are expected to mention their name in the register whenever entering or leaving the hostel. The hygienic conditions of bathrooms are pathetic with rusted doors and insects of all kinds. 

The hostel for the second year students, 'The new Ladies hostel' is, however, better. The rooms are small but neat with clean, white marble tiles. There is a gym as well as a garden. This hostel has long corridors that let in fresh air with huge balconies.

So the first year for girls at NIT Warangal is a nightmare while the second year is better.

How should one prepare for the IIFT?

S
Sagardeep Posted On : February 27th, 2023
Senior Career Counsellor

IIFT (Indian Institutes of Foreign Trade) is a highly reputable college that offers a post-graduate program in management. The college has a limited intake of around 450-500 students per year, and the admission process is based on an online exam conducted by NTA. The exam is of 2 hours duration and provides the flexibility to switch between sections at any time.

When preparing for the IIFT exam, it is important to develop a tailored preparation strategy that takes into account the exam date. For example, if you decide to take the exam six months in advance, you should create a six-month preparation plan, and if you decide to take the exam with only three months or less left, you should create a plan accordingly.

Regardless of when you decide to take the exam, the essential aspects of an IIFT preparation plan include:

  • reviewing the IIFT syllabus
  • obtaining the appropriate study material and IIFT preparation books
  • downloading previous years’ IIFT question papers and online mock tests for practice.

The IIFT exam has four sections: General Knowledge (GK), Verbal Ability & Reading Comprehension (VARC), Logical Reasoning & Data Interpretation (LRDI), and Quantitative Aptitude (QA). When studying for the exam, it is advisable to start with the section that you find most challenging and work your way through to the easiest section. It is also important not to leave any topic incomplete, and to avoid studying multiple topics simultaneously to avoid confusion.

To prepare for the VARC section, focus on developing your reading speed and strengthening your grammar. Read newspapers, editorials, online blogs, novels, short stories, business reports, etc. To prepare for the GK section, read newspapers, and current affairs magazines, and watch business news. To prepare for the LRDI section, focus on understanding the concepts and formulae and practice solving sample questions at least three times. To prepare for the QA section, focus on understanding the basics of Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and Mensuration.

It is also important to keep in mind that there is a negative marking in the IIFT exam, so you should only attempt questions that you can solve with 100% accuracy.

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : June 11th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

Well, if you are getting similar branches in both institutes, BITS Pilani and IIT BHU, it's better to go for the IIT tag. But if you are getting a better branch at BITS consider the following points of comparison

  • Although similar tech companies visit both institutes, their performance in ACM ICPC and GSOC, that makes IIT BHU the better option.
  • For non-tech though, BITS seems to be a notch better option than IIT BHU although similar companies visit their respective campus.
  • IIT BHU has more supply chain-related companies because of the IIT tag
  • Although BITS Pilani has given birth to some great startups, IIT BHU is the clear winner here. The Richest Indian-American is an alumnus of IIT BHU owing to his four successful startups.
  • The students of both colleges have a reputation for doing their masters from top US universities. For IT BHU, the IIT tag is the lucrative aspect while FOR BITS it is the huge number of alumni in research.
  • Being a pirate university, BITS Pilani charges hefty fees from its students. 

Irrespective of the institute you choose, it is your efforts that will make you successful so choose wisely.

How good is XIMB for rural management?

SK
Shivani Khanna Posted On : April 19th, 2021
MBA Rural Management & Marketing, Xavier Institute of Management, Bhubaneswar (2018)

Rural management at XIMB is a decent option for students, which is even considered at par with the Indian Institute of Rural Management, Anand. There are several notions in the minds of people, which creates doubt about whether to choose Rural management or not. The points below give a clear picture of the course, addressing the benefits and the genuine outcomes of the degree.

  • It consists of all the subjects taught in BM and HRM, along with some extra subjects dealing with rural management.
  • You can go through the previous year's CAT cut-offs to decide which institute or stream is better. The cut-off for XIMB-RM is lower than HRM and BM, which makes you to remove it from your preference, which is a wrong notion. More than half of the entire class of rural management have excellent scores in CAT or XAT. Mostly, there are students with CAT cut-offs around 75-90 in RM. 
  • The rural management course at XIMB is quite good and ranked close to IRMA. It is ranked second in the country after IIM Ahmedabad and 19th worldwide. 
  • The majority of people believe that Rural Management students are hired only by development agencies and NGOs, which is another wrong notion. Several Consulting, IT companies, BFSI, and FMCG come to recruits RM students in placement.
  • People even think that Rural Managers have to work in interior parts of India. But the fact is that most RMs work in tier-1 or tier-2 cities, and visit rural interiors as a part of their work for monitoring their company works.
  • Engineering back-out from doing MBA at rural management, thinking that their work experience would be of no value for the degree. But, just like any other streams, work experience gets extra emphasis in rural management too.
  • The placements in RM are of average quality at present but are at rapid growth. Having an average package is still satisfactory, which will lead to a handsome package within two years. There are students from RM having excellent salary packages, which are the result of their hard work and maximum course extraction.
  • Students from IT companies have a good scope in RM as most IT or consulting companies working in rural regions have projects from government and micro-finance companies, and so are in great demand.

These are some of the key highlights and clarifications to most wrong notions about Rural Management from XIMB, which is indeed a good option having ample opportunities and great scope in the future.
