Which is better for MBBS: KMC Manipal or GSVM Kanpur?
KMC Manipal has an excellent crowd contrary to the general perception. Here, you need brains and not money to get admission. The admissions are based on merits so the quality of the crowd is not compromised at all. Only about 10% of the batch are NEI students or those with Indian ethnicity but are not citizens of this country WHO had to pay to get their seats. There are no management seats at all. The truth is that the number of meritorious students in government colleges is actually less because they have reservations for backward classes while private colleges do not.
So, go for KMC Manipal!
What is it like to be in ECE branch at NIT Warangal/ Surathkal/Calicut? How is the campus life and placements (companies visiting, kind of jobs, average packages)?
I have a friend who studies in the ECE branch at NIT Warangal. I will break down his overall experience into simpler aspects
Academics: The curriculum and academic life at NIT Warangal for ECE students is a bit more challenging than others. Some semesters have too many courses and it’s difficult to get free time. The grades are given a lot of importance and students face tough competition. Also, the faculty is not very approachable.
- Campus life: The campus life of students of all branches is similar. Equal opportunities and facilities are offered and students experience a productive ambiance where they can work on their passions.
- Hostels : The hostel facilities are top-notch and both old and new hostels are available. Students get a home-like feel in these cozy buildings and make friends for life.
- Mess food: Mess food is better than food served in intermediate hostels. However, students can opt for eating out if the food in the mess is unsatisfactory. The eateries outside serve decent food at low prices.
- Sports : The sports culture here is not very prominent and you won’t be forced to be involved in any such activities.
- Extracurricular : A number of clubs promote extracurriculars with ECEA being the most active association.
- Peer group: Your batchmates will be the most hardworking and smartest people in the institute so peer group quality should be the last thing to worry about.
- Placements : Both core and non-core placement opportunities are offered to ECE students. Here are the detailed stats for the same

NIT Warangal ECE is a great choice in terms of job and academic opportunities. So try to maintain a good GP to avail the maximum benefits.
Which is better: IIT Guwahati mathematics and computing or ECE?
I am assuming you have no specific interests and are looking for a branch that offers good job opportunities. In that case, Maths and Computing at IIT Guwahati is best. With the unique blend of Mathematical concepts and CS concepts, this program has become one of the most coveted ones only second to CSE. Indeed, MnC has an immense workload and is considered difficult but so is ECE. However, if you are not interested in Maths at all, and are a research enthusiast, Electronics is better than MnC. Electronics will give you an opportunity to explore both IT and hardware industries. However, it’s very difficult to secure internships in CE than MnC and this might demotivate you a bit.
Concludingly I would like to comment that MnC is a good option in the short run while ECE will prove to be beneficial in the long run.
Which one is better: aerospace engineering in IIT Kanpur, aerospace engineering in IIT Madras, mechanical engineering IIT BHU, or ECE in IIT BHU?
I am a student of B.Tech Aerospace at IIT Madras. IIT Madras is a top engineering institution in India, and a degree from here can easily land you an offer to complete your higher education in Ivy League colleges (if you are among the top 10% in your batch). You may even land a job offer at prestigious institutions like ISRO once you graduate.
Here is a comparison among IIT Kanpur, IIT Madras and IIT BHU:

Microsoft, Google, Samsung, Bosch, etc. |
It is evident from the following data that in terms of placements, the Mechanical and Electronics branches of IIT BHU are better. But if you have the slightest interest in Aerospace Engineering, IIT Madras will open plenty of opportunities for you in this sector.
If research/higher studies interest you, IIT Madras is the best option due to its superior reputation. You’ll get to work at some of the best organizations like HUL, ISRO, and DRDO. Moreover, you’ll be exposed to world-class infrastructure, and some of the best professors.
So if you have an interest in Aerospace Engineering, I would suggest you opt for IIT Madras over all the other options.
Which one is better correspondence course MA psychology from from IGNOU or MSc Psychology from University of Madras?
IGNOU is better recognized for distance courses. So, pursuing a correspondence course in MA Psychology will be better. However, if possible try to do a regular course in counseling, clinical or industrial psychology. Psychology is practical oriented subject, and you will need to do dissertations, practicals, and internships as a part of coursework. Being a practical-based course, the career outcomes of correspondence degrees in Psychology are somewhat limited.
How is life after completing an MBA from IIM Nagpur?
Once you end your college life, life is not the same anymore. You end up missing every moment spent whether enjoying or studying for your exams. Once you step into the real world you realize it’s now that the real-life issues begin. I have listed some good and bad things you will experience as an IIM pass out
Good things
- Your living standards will have been improved because of the high package you received
- You will have a new circle of friends
- Many aspirants will look to you for inspiration.
Bad things
- As an IIM pass-out, you will have to live up to its name and brand. People will expect you to excel in whatever you do.
- You will be mistaken as arrogant because of your IIM tag
- High tax payments have to be made
- You have to repay the educational loans you have taken and sometimes it takes years to do so
Apart from these situations, you might face serious criticism if you give up your job and initiate entrepreneurship.
Is COE at Thapar University really good? Are there opportunities for internships?
COE is one of the best branches of Thapar University offering a plethora of job opportunities and exposure to students. Sparing a few professors, the department is blessed with some of the best faculty members.
The internship scenario specifically is great for this branch and one of my friends at Thapar University told me that 5 of his batchmates received internship offers from Microsoft IT. Other companies offering internship offers included Expedia, Snapdeal, Royal Bank of Scotland, ARM, etc. The students received stipends in the range of 20-40k per month. Most of these companies offer PPOs to their students.
Additionally, the research internships are great. One of my friends had the opportunity to intern at IIT Roorkee after his 2nd year. Many others got selected at IIT Delhi, IIT Bombay, Kanpur, Guwahati, Ropar, Gandhinagar, Mandi, etc. The reputation of Thapar University is such that it plays a very positive role in the selection of students.
Overall, the brand value of Thapar University makes it possible for big companies to offer lucrative packages and roles.
Is IGNOU (Indira Gandhi National Open University) AICTE approved for an M.Com?
The following information will clear all your doubts regarding IGNOU being AICTE approved:
-
IGNOU is not only a central university but also a nodal body to regulate distance education in India.
-
IGNOU can commence any course, even technical courses without or with approval of AICTE since it has the right to do so as per its constitution.
-
IGNOU has its own SOET (school of engineering and technology) duly approved by HRD and UGC. Their degrees and diplomas are equivalent to any other technical system in India.
-
AICTE never recognizes any degree/diploma in distance courses and hence it should be clearly understood for any institution. Nonetheless, IGNOU courses are themselves valid.
However, through a joint resolution of DEC(IGNOU) and AICTE, IGNOU is no longer offering any technical degree/diploma and neither recognizes other universities in DEC mode.
